Guest Reviews
- Romain (9/5): -
- Nichlas (10/5): -
- Jennifer (10/5): - Hele mooie plek direct aan het strand. Leuke huisjes dichtbij elkaar, dus snel contact met de andere reizigers. Grote bedden en heel confortabel. Geen airco in de keuken/woonkamer waar ook een bed staat. Heel warm vergeleken met slaapkamer met airco.
- Kayla (10/5): -
- Céline (6/5): Un emplacement de rêve mais un confort limité pour le prix et en comparaison à d’autres hôtels. - La situation sur la plage, les hamacs dans les cocotiers, la tranquillité, la petite piscine et les singes à observer depuis le hamac ! Un des établissements les plus chers de notre séjour au Costa Rica et pourtant pas de petit déjeuner inclu, le lit d’appoint inconfortable, pas de savon pour la douche, et surtout climatisation dans une seule pièce (ce qui n’est pas précisé) il a fait 38 degrés durant les 3 jours où nous y logions. Compliqué de dormir dans ces conditions
- Aurelien (9/5): - Superbe plage déserte et les hamacs ! Lorena était très sympa Manque qq équipements de cuisine et pas de savons sous la douche ! La piscine pourrait être un peu plus propre
- Michelle (1/5): Wir haben dort nur geschlafen, da und der Strand, die Lage und die Anlage überhaupt nicht gefallen hat. - Das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis.
- Jasmin (9/5): Super feine und kleine Unterkunft direkt am Strand! Kommen gerne wieder! -
- Godfrey (9/5): -
- Elizabeth (8/5): -
- Daniel (10/5): familiär, klein und sympathisch! beste unterkunft in unserer 5 wöchigen reise! - Perfekte location direkt am strand!
- Teresa (9/5): We had a relaxed and fun stay at Fenix Hotel, such a perfect spot to unwind and enjoy the vibe. - The staff was outstanding-warm, attentive and welcoming. A special shout out to the manager, Lorena, who went above and beyond to make sure guests felt comfortable and cared for. You can tell they put thought in every detail from small decorative touches in the room to personal service thoughout the stay. The location was a big plus. It had a local, relaxed vibe. The one downside for me was the lack of air-conditioning in the space except the bedroom. Also, it would have been nice to have had a ceiling fan outside our door over our seating area. Oh and be sure to bring your own bath soap.
- Bogner (10/5): - Umístění hotelu je super.
- Katie (10/5): Beautiful relaxing stay on the beach - Location - literally on the beach. Shaded space to sit and relax. Apartment was spacious for 2 people and bed was really large and comfy. Kitchen had everything you’d need to make basic meals. Recommend bringing a torch for the walk to town at night along the beach! Not quite enough sunbeds for everyone - but wasn’t usually an issue.
- Désirée (9/5): erholsame ruhige und paradiesische tage - ruhig, paradiesisch schön, klein und persönlich. anlage sauber. wer sich erholen will und ruhe haben will, ist in samara und im fenix hotel am richtigen ort. zimmer teilweise viel staub (beim zweiten mal hinsehen). geschirr haben wir zuerst gewaschen bevor wir es genutzt haben.
- Pablo (10/5): - Ubicación excelente y trato del personal. Zona muy tranquila y segura. Cosas que mejorar en cuanto a la estética del hospedaje, ya hay corrosión en varios artículos (puertas, cocina, lamparas).
- Rolf (6/5): -
- Monica (5/5): Schöne Lage. Preis für Angebot aber deutlich zu hoch - Strandnähe war schön.
Sehr bequemes Bett. Alles schön etwas schmuddelig (Teppiche auf Plattenboden). Mobiliar teils reparaturbedürftig ( herausstehende Schraube an Lehne).
Gasgrill draussen zur Verwendung sehr schmutzig.
- Amelie (7/5): Incredible beachfront - thank you to Kim & Lorena for making our last nights in Costa Rica memorable! - It is a charming place with an ideal location, right on the beachfront. The hotel staff was very friendly and welcoming. Lorena gave us lots of recommendations for neighbouring restaurants, activities and bars. The hotel is within walking distance from the town’s beachfront. Parking was convenient. Fenix Hotel is also very conveniently furnished with paddle boards and floaters for the pool. Towels for use on the beach are kindly provided and sunbeds/hamocs are available free of charge. Nothing we didn’t like but just one recommendation for future guests - make sure to liaise with the hotel through WhatsApp a few hours before the check in to make sure all formalities can be completed smoothly!
- christelle (10/5): - Un cadre magnifique, du personnel très agréable et disponible quand on en a besoin (même après notre départ, ils nous ont envoyé des objets oubliés auxquels on tenait! Vraiment top!). Rien
- Lisa (9/5): We had a fabulous time at this little Gem of a resort! - Everything! Facilities very clean & beautiful! Unfortunately, looking at the neglected horse across the street that was very minimally taken care of. The poor thing did not exercise the whole week we were there. Kept in a small space that was not clean. Received food and water and attention rarely. So sad. People should not own a horse if they can not take care of it. I think for most people , seeing this neglected horse daily is disheartening and disturbing.
- Pascal (9/5): -
- Thomas (10/5): -
- Victoria (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kirsten (8/5): Nice property on the beach with nice staff. - Casual atmosphere right on the beach. Cold shower
- Moran (9/5): Amazing chill & authentic beach front vacation - A magical place. It is on the beach so you can hear the waves and see the sunset from the property. My kids loved the small pool and surfing, going to the beach at will. It is simple and down to earth, reminded me of Kho Pangan in thailand 20 years ago. The town is within a walking distance. The team - Lorena and Kim are great! Helping us booking whales tour, answering every question we had. Very accomodating and freindly. Great relaxed atmosphere. Chill. The facilities are simple as mentioned. Cleaning could be better.
- Kimberly (6/5): Pretty, curious to see it in 3 years…. - The property has SO much potential! Unfortunately, potential is not a current factor for me now. The property is clean and well maintained. The landscaping is beautiful. The decor in our room was well executed. Our shower was warm, with good water pressure, as long as no other showers were running. Clean, small pool. The beds are extremely uncomfortable. The noise from outside is unavoidable due to their only being netting on half the windows. And by noise, I mean the volume of the night guards phone as he watches shows, the talking of other guests as though you’re all on top of each other and the bar next door that plays music all day.
- Sean (10/5): Fenix Hotel is a great place to unwind, unplug and reconnect with nature. It is a beautiful - Location was great. 15 steps to the beach. We
Intimate and quiet. The facilities are a bit rustic, but very accommodating. Kim is great…friendly and helpful. WiFi was very sporadic and not available for a large periods of time. You need to bring your own soap and shampoo. Kitchen could use a little extra cleaning.
- Erin (10/5): Absolute Paradise - The staff, Lorena the manager and Kim the owner were so nice and welcoming. The grounds were absolutely beautiful right on the beach. There were plenty of lounge chairs and hammocks on the grounds. A great pool to soak in. Samara beach is beautiful. The property is beach front and a short 15 minute walk to town. The beach is protected by a reef and there is no undertow and is great for kids.
- Sharie (8/5): Very good -
- Mohr (10/5): Exceptional -
- Douglas (10/5): Great location, best sunsets and a cool spot to stay for an extended period of time - Best sunset on the beach! The Fenix was just purchased by the new owners and they were starting some renos but our stay was really enjoyable even with the little bit of construction going on. The rooms are a good size and have small kitchens which is great. The location is awesome and you can walk to beach restaurants and the downtown area. There is also fresh fish and a small store right behind the Fenix. The outside sitting area is fantastic....so comfortable and the sunsets are absolutely awesome. New owners mentioned they were thinking of some upgrades including A/C which would be great too. We plan on going back for sure (and bringing wine....inside joke with new owners!)
- Jason (10/5): I highly recommend. If you want a calm and serene beachfront experience stay here. The views, property, and staff are am - In the beach, beautiful views, friendly and helpful staff and owners, carefully decorated and maintained, store and restaurant in close proximity, and overall pleasant vibe. There is no AC however the ocean breeze made it comfortable to sleep well at night.
- Carlos (6/5): Loved beach location but hard to sleep in the heat and noise - Location by the beach Too hot with air conditioning. Dogs barking at night. Roosters crowing in the early morning
- John (10/5): Exceptional - Hotel was clean with an enjoyable host. Location is top-notch, can't be any closer to the beach. Restaurants are available along the beach. Quiet and non-touristy beach. A perfect place to unplug and relax. The kitchenette is a great bonus for those who choose to prepare their own food. Although there is room for lodging 3 people, it would be crowded. Perfect for a couple's retreat.
- Flynn (10/5): Exceptional -
- Aaron (9/5): Great place to relax and soak up the sun. - Beachfront location doesn’t get much better. Wonderful staff. Beds could have been more comfortable. No AC in rooms.
- Thomas (8/5): Very good -
- Sarah (9/5): Superb -
- James (9/5): Superb -
- Thorne (3/5): I would not recommend this property to others. - Honestly, not much Not the caliber of property we are accustomed to. The property is run down. The bar located next door to the property was loud each night until 12:00 midnight. Made sleeping nearly impossible.
- Shannon (9/5): Superb -
- Heather (7/5): Good -
- Kristen (9/5): Superb - The location is perfect, it feels quiet and secluded but is a simple walk down the beach to the rest of town.
- Ashleigh (7/5): very nice, beautiful, and relaxing - location and quite the bed in the kitchen
