Great for families with two or more children who prefer their own beds.
This condo interacts with the other condos in that it is on the second floor of a four-story building. The front section of the fourth floor is called the Congo Lounge and it is open to all guests. There are tables, chairs, sofas, and hammocks, as well as amazing views, ocean breezes, and howler monkeys hanging from the nearby trees!
Alta Vista is in the Samara neighborhood of Cangrejal, on the north end of the bay of Samara. Cangrejal is a Costa Rican neighborhood, an old fishing village, and is very quiet with no loud music or bars. There is a great casual restaurant in Cangrejal just down the street towards the beach from Alta Vista called "La Perla" which offers great healthy local cuisine at reasonable prices. Two blocks away from Alta Vista opposite the beach is a popular supermarket named "La Iguana Verde", a medium size grocery and liquor store. A neighborhood like Sámara is safe in general. However always be aware of your personal belongings on the beach or in public. Please be safe yourself and considerate to the other guests of the building by closing and locking your parking garage gate.
Before you arrive, please message Hilda & Patrick using the Airbnb messenger with your arrival time. It will help to exchange phone numbers at that point so you can call Hilda when you pass through Nicoya on your way to Samara. Nicoya is 50 minutes away and lets Hilda know your exact arrival time. When you pull up, you will see the sign on the front door: Alta Vista Condominiums, and the four-story building. If you’ve called us from Nicoya, we’ll be waiting to open the parking gate for you! Our friendly administrator Hilda will greet you with the keys and begin your check-in.
Introducing Condo Begonia, a contemporary 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom retreat. The master bedroom has a king bed, the guest bedroom has two individual beds which are complemented by a queen size pull-out sofa sleeper in the living room, accommodating a maximum of 6 guests. Positioned on the second floor, Begonia boasts a modern and serene ambiance. The expansive floor-to-ceiling windows offer a captivating beach and ocean view, creating a picturesque setting. Relax on the private balcony furnished for optimal enjoyment of this stunning vista. The beds and linens exude luxury, ensuring a comfortable stay. The open floor plan facilitates easy movement, relaxation, and seamless appreciation of the surrounding scenery. With three individual air conditioning units, your comfort is guaranteed. Welcome to a haven where modernity meets tranquility.
Most guests either choose to rent a car and drive from the airport to Alta Vista or take some sort of private transportation. I do not recommend local transportation; you'd be taking 3-4 buses! Just say the word and Hilda can help you make a reservation for a private shuttle van; we have a company that has been providing dependable service for almost a decade. They will meet you at the airport with your name on a sign and drive you approx. two hours to Alta Vista in a comfortable, air-conditioned van usually stocked with cold water and fresh fruit. The driver typically speaks enough English to get by. They will stop at a grocery store in Nicoya if you choose.

Walking distance to town
Great location with an amazing view and only a 5 minute walk to the beach. Provided beach chairs and umbrella were an added bonus for the hot days by the ocean.

Excellent all around!
Spent a beautiful relaxing week at the Begonia suite at Alta Vista. The property is very clean and well maintained. Fantastic little details like beach chairs and laundry on site made our stay effortless. The views are spectacular and access to the beach is superb. The layout and decor is simple, modern and spacious. 100% recommended. I’m sure we will be back.

Pura Vida Vibes!
What an incredible visit to Alta Vista in Samara. Samara has managed to retain low key and authentic Costa Rican vibes. And there is no better place to enjoy them than Alta Vista. The condo was perfect for our family. Located on the edge of town just outside the hubub of the town center but within easy walking distance of everything including the beach! The host ensured every detail was taken care of and they were extremely helpful and generous with their. Local recommendations. I could not recommend more highly! Thanks for the Pura Vida hospitality!

Exactly What We Were Looking For
We loved our stay at Alta Vista. The location couldn't be better. Easy, sort walk to the beach. Walk or super short drive to town. The pool was perfect to cool down. Patrick was an amazing host and did everything to ensure we were taken care of.
