Review:

Hotel Giada has it all: it is located in Playa Samara in a secluded bay on seven km of white sandy beach and surrounded by lush unspoiled jungle, and it is heaven for nature lovers, surfers, sun-worshipers, and just about everyone else. While the barrier reef protects the town and hotel from the strong Pacific waves, surfers can go just a bit outside of the bay to enjoy some awesome rollers.

The hotel is a little Costa Rican oasis of luxury surrounded by colorful tropical jungle. Guests can enjoy twenty-four comfortable modern rooms with private bathrooms, and they are nicely decorated in tropical colors with fine details.

You can choose an air-conditioned room or enjoy the clean salty breeze from the sea. Surrounded by the hotel gardens are two pools and a whirlpool, as well as a bar and restaurant where you can sample some delicious Italian or local dishes, tropical cocktails, or good wine.

Address: Hotel Giada, Playa Sámara, Nicoya, 5235 Guanacaste, Costa Rica, 506-2656-3232
