We Love Our Guests!!

I feel so fortunate to have met Fabiana and Roberto.
They are thoughtful, generous, and friendly hosts. The space is well designed and clearly a lot of thought went into the details. The air flow in the Bungelove felt way better than air conditioning. Breakfasts with Fabiana (for a small fee) were a highlight of my day. As mentioned in the listing it's a little way from town on foot so recommend a car or bicycle. Would definitely stay again!

They have created a little paradise in Sámara.
We were the first guests in the new cabana. Her hospitality was overwhelming, we felt very comfortable. Equipped with enough valuable information, we could do a lot in Samara and its surroundings. The three day stay at Fabbiana's will remain a highlight of our three week trip through Costa Rica. Highly recommended!

A wonderful hideaway with lots of love and care.
Our bungalow was beautiful, clean and cool compared to the high temperatures outside, and a highlight for me was the open kitchen next to the pools with the cats. THE highlight though have been Fabianna and Roberto. Not only have they been the warmest hosts you can imagine, but also did they save us from missing our flight by troubleshooting our rides. Thank you so much you two!

A gorgeous property and even better hosts!
Fabbiana and her husband were such wonderful hosts with the most positive welcoming energy- offering a glass of wine right when we checked in. Their property is absolutely stunning with such a great vibe! The pool is so fun with a beautiful view during sunset and they had a walk with your soul available which was extremely in lightening. It was also very close to the beach- you could easily walk, or they offer these adorable little bikes if you prefer. Fabbiana also offers a breakfast for 5,000 colones which is worth every penny! Super filling and delicious with great coffee! Truly the place to stay if you ever are considering the area- we would go back tenfold just to experience their sanctuary once again!

Words will be weak to describe our experience!
This little slice of paradise has the merit of being known and recognized for the work done over several years to renovate and welcome their hosts as it should be! On the edge of the jungle, in a natural, splendid environment, all built with their hands, huge work, incredible kindness! Our daughter was the first child to be hosted. She didn't want to leave anymore. Neither do we! We hope that future vacationers will respect this incredible environment. The Bungalow is just amazing. All the little details are designed so you can have a unique time cut off from the world and in a natural environment. We know how many hours spent working every little detail to satisfy their customers! 🦜♥️🙊♥️

We leave HolisticLiving with great sadness...
Everything was perfect, the room is brand new, surrounded by nature with the monkeys at the window. The splendid outdoor kitchen and the hosts are as friendly and available as they are discreet . We caught fish and Roberto offered to cook them for us. An amazing chef. We recommend 100%!

A haven of peace, in the middle of nature!
We had a fabulous stay with Fabianna and Roberto.There is a very beautiful energy coming from this place.The rooms are comfortable, spacious and well equipped.We are immersed in nature and we live at its own pace. The common areas are friendly and we come to discuss with our hosts, share or even do yoga. in short, a little paradise, which we strongly recommend.

Thanks HolisticLiving, super pleasant stay!
The property is about 2-3 km outside of Sámara, which, however, justifies the peace and quiet at all times. You sleep in an "open" bungalow and can hear a lot of noise from the jungle at night! The distance to the village/beach is no problem as you can use the in-house bike! Fabbiana and Roberto are super nice and helpful hosts, who even invited me to dinner and had super nice and interesting conversations with them 😊 All around - highly recommended!! I'll be back 😊

Upon arrival we felt at peace, stress melted away.
This place is already in a stunning part of CR, and Fabbiana's place fits in seamlessly. Everything looks so in harmony with nature and the surrounding jungle it takes a while to appreciate how much thought has gone into the details: from the stylish minimal design of the bungalows (all with ceiling fans, mossie screens, ensuite bathrooms and private patios) that make the most of natural breezes to the open air shared kitchen to the location of the yoga/energy treatment area that is afforded gentle breezes and fabulous views. Fabbiana is a fully trained yoga instructor/energy healer and she is v v good, definitely talk to her about this. There are 4 bungalows so be sure to message Fabbiana about other possibilities if they dont pop up during your airbnb search. Communal Pool, Rancho area gorgeous. Abundance of wildlife: iquana, bats, howler monkeys all around. Fabbiana and Roberto are the best hosts. Highly recommended!

Quiet location, away from the noise of the city.
Fabbiana and her spouse are very welcoming. It's best to be motorized but Fabbiana has bikes for you. Monkeys are never far away.. The place was great with an en-suite shower and outdoor facing nature. Access to the kitchen is its equipment worthy of a professional kitchen and the dedicated dining area is simply extraordinary. You can stay there with your eyes closed. The hosts are really warm. Pura Vida

Wish we would have stayed much longer!
We recommend this place, we only stayed for one night but would have stayed much longer 💓 Fabbiana and her husband gave us a very warm welcome with a glass of coconut water upon arrival. They are two very sol people, who are talking to is lovely! The place is magical, at the heart of the jungle, your nights will be lulled by the wildlife that surround you (small bonus for monkeys). We meditated and did yoga with Fabbiana in the morning and it was great!

They really made me feel at home.
I have to start with so amazing persons are Fabbiana and Roberto. The property is wonderful, surrounded by jungle, if you look up you can see the monkeys jumping from one branch to the next. Other animals come to visit, if you are lucky they let u take pics. The cabin is very comfortable, ventilated and so well design that let you connect perfect with nature. There are nature noises but they make the experience even more exciting. The property is around 25 min walking to Samara, I did not rent a car, so it was a good warm out before jumping to the sea. P.S. Try Fabbiana’s massage to leave renewed. Definitely would come back!!!

We received a very friendly welcome!
We felt at home from the start. The design of the bungalow creates a natural connection to the surroundings. Being woken up in the morning by the howler monkeys and the singing birds was amazing! The warm welcome to a lovely prepared healthy breakfast was a perfect start to a wonderful day and watching the monkeys climbing in the trees was the absolute highlight! Fabianna and her husband Roberto are two very lovable hosts. We would definitely come back!

Very nice retreat away from the noise.
Beautifully maintained grounds and peaceful. The pool was very nice, great to cool off and relax. The open common kitchen was well appointed and Roberto was always willing to help when needed. Fabiana washed our laundry as needed and kept our room clean. We enjoyed dinner with the hosts, as Roberto is a great Italian chef! We enjoyed our stay and hope to return.

Thank you for your hospitality!
We’ve stayed at Fabianna’s and Roberto’s place for 3 nights (too short!) and loved it there so much, that we could hardly leave! It’s been for us a very special stay and thank you for making it so unique and unforgettable! The peaceful and idyllic bungalow, surrounded by the beautiful jungle, joint eating (with a very good equipped kitchen equipment) and pool area were super nice to stay, eat and chill also with our toddler (and yes - he loved it there too!) In the morning we’ve been looking for animals, also one of my personal highlights - I’ve done an amazing yoga session with Fabianna in the space above and we had a very delicious dinner and fun and warm conversations at the last night. Thank you again - you are amazing!

Exceeded my expectations!
I needed to book a last minute stay near another air bnb which was how I found this place. I felt at home right away. Both Fabbiana and her husband were welcoming hosts. The cabin was very clean with hot water to shower and great air flow with a ceiling fan. The grounds around the cabin were spectacular. I spent an entire morning enjoying the serene environment and basking in the sun. I plan to stay again if I visit Samara again.

We are so happy we found Fabbiana and Roberto!
This was the first leg of our 3 week trip. Fabbiana has a comforting and welcoming presence. Very skilled in her practices of yoga and energy work Roberto is generous and helpful. There creativity and passion is obvious in what they made here. We felt totally relaxed . With lots of sounds of nature to enjoy. Private, relaxing, energizing. Enjoyed every bit of our experience.

Exactly as described!
Lovely accommodation, very clean, calm, in the midst of nature - The common used kitchen contained everything we needed and its a nice place to chat with the other guests and the hosts. Fabianna and Roberto are just lovely. We would love to come again and stay longer, their place made me feel like home. They are chatty, kind and funny hosts and their property is just amazing :)

The price / quality is amazing.
The materials used to build this place are very high quality with a sharp eye for details. The place is just outside Sámara and we loved it. We were invited to have diner with the host for a very small fee compared to the prices in restaurants. Roberto made a beautiful dinner for us and we had the best time of our lifes together. These people understand how to make their guest feel welcome and at home right away. We only booked one night but knowing what we know now we might have stayed for much longer. Thank you Fabbiana and Roberto Pura Vida with an Italian twist

They were always extremely helpful.
We had a wonderful time at Fabianna and Roberto's place! They really took a lot of time for us and explained everything. The facility they created is much nicer than in the photos, really a real paradise! We felt very comfortable. I did yoga twice with Fabianna in the morning and Roberto cooked for us last night, once he even lent us his car to drive to the beach. The bikes are also great to ride around. Everything is very safe! Thanks for the nice time!!

I think it was the best stay ever!
Fabbiana and Roberto are simply great! The bungalows are very beautiful in wood with the spacious room and the adjacent large bathroom. In the middle of the jungle you can hear animals and nature to get a great night's sleep! They are always available and Roberto also cooks as a former chef for guests who are nice 😄 Fabbiana offers wonderful energy massages (incredible experience) and yoga! Thank you for everything, you are wonderful!

Don't hesitate and book right away!
We just loved the place and our hosts! From the accommodation (beautiful cabin), the place (as a bonus of monkeys in the trees of the garden), the excellent breakfast prepared by Fabbiana, without forgetting the warm welcome! A great time, it's a shame we only stayed two nights.

We wished we had stayed longer!
Staying in the bungalow was an all rounded beautiful experience! Her and her partner are welcoming, open minded and fun to talk to. Yoga in the morning was a highlight of our trip 🩷

I had the most wonderful time!
Beautiful scenery & conversations with Fabbiana & Roberto. Definitely the place to be if you are visiting Samara. Roberto’s cooking & fun energy is one of kind!

The vibe here is really great.
Description goes hereFabbiana’s place is a little off the beaten track, but for that you get a place where you can hear the wood peckers, the howler monkeys, & the cicadas. You can even hear the cats meowing at you while preparing some of your meals in the communal kitchen. :) ! Fabbiana & Robert are fun hosts; they’re helpful as to local services & customs, Fabbiana is very caring & Roberto has a good sense of humour. If you visiting the area, for the first time, & you have a wish to explore the area by rented car, ATV or motorcycle, Fabbiana & Roberto’s is a good place. But because getting to & from “downtown” Samara makes you depend on the local “unofficial” taxis, the taxi availability is so so. During the busy season the taxis have lots of work & might choose to wait for a more profitable trip. This is really a small point here; because all pluses outweigh any negatives. Lastly, & most importantly, There is a positive energy, both in the peaceful & energizing sense. 😁😁

The most lovely place!
We had a wonderful time at Fabbiana’s and Roberto’s place. They’re incredibly nice people and we felt welcome right from the beginning. They helped us with any kind of question or problem. Also their bungalows are really pretty, cosy, comfortable and clean. So if you’re looking for a beautiful and quiet place to stay in Sámara, I highly recommend coming here!😊

Fabbiana and Roberto were great hosts.
We were greeted very nicely and were very comfortable. The place has everything you need and nothing you don't need. Perfect to simply unwind and enjoy the tranquility in nature. We would definitely book this accommodation again.

Enchanting complex in the middle of nature.
Wonderfully quiet. We had a beautiful, clean, lovingly furnished accommodation.. Fabbiana and her husband Roberto are very likeable and have taken great care of us and helped. We had a great time and would have liked to have stayed longer. 100% recommendation!
Martina -
The place is simple, quiet and inviting.
Fabiana is very friendly and accommodating. We stayed for a week and found all we needed to be comfortable and cared for. The evenings and design of the cabins kept us quite cool and comfortable. The shared outdoor kitchen worked well. The place is remote (30min walk from Samara) but very worth it. Lovely sunsets in the pasture across the street.

We can highly recommend the accommodation.
We felt very comfortable from the beginning, as we were received in a very friendly way. The bungalows are new and beautiful. Fabbiana also offers breakfast, which is very tasty and recommended. We enjoyed the time very much. Fabbiana and Roberto are very warm and warm people. Thank you for making our stay at your place memorable!

Fabbiana an Roberto were always helpful and open for a talk.
The bungalow was nice, had a good size for 2 people and was really clean. Awesome outdoor shower and pretty terrace to chill and drink some beer. The place is a bit far away from the city center but in 15 Min. good reachable by bike.
