Great place !!!!!
The hotel was located in a great area for birding. You could bird watch by the pool in the morning , or while eating breakfast on the patio. Jason was a great host , really friendly and accommodating. I will definitely book here again. Thanks Jason. Pura Vida.

We reached the hotel around 6:30 pm on Monday, March 27th . No light outside of the hotel, heard to find the address. Hotel gate is closed. Not able to find any lights or any signs of cars or people when looking thru the gate. Called hotel phone number and no one picked up the phone. Spend 15 mins near the hotel and no response. Drive to another hotel near by and requsted that new hotel staff to call this hotel. No one picked up the phone. He called one of workers personal phone & he told that hotel is open from back roads& restaurant is closed on Monday and thats why gate is closed. We were scared to go to this hotel using back roads where there is no sign anywhere how to go reach there. Finally. We did not go this hotel at all. Not good experience at all.

Amazing stay at El Sueno Tropical Hotel
We loved our stay! It was such a perfect landing spot for us - close enough to town but not right in the mix at all. Erin was a superb host, and we really loved the included breakfast and coffees! Reading by the pool in the morning was a highlight as well. Their newly renovated facilities are fantastic and we’d recommend this hotel for sure!
Really enjoyed this newly renovated property. Comfortable rooms and it’s really an oasis. It’s just the right distance from Samara also! Loved the staff and food also. Do not hesitate to book!

Bel hôtel près de Samara :-)
Très beau site avec des chambres comfortables et propres. Le souper directement au bord de la piscine y as été délicieux et abordable. Des l’arrivée nous avons été reçu pas Erin qui est très charmante et a l’écoute de nos demandes. Un site tranquille, propre et accueillant pas très loin d’une magnifique plage que j’ai hâte de revisiter pour plus de nuits et que je recommande fortement. Asta luego Erin !
