About Margaret and Peter Watson
We are a 'young' retired couple from Scotland living our summers in Scotland and our Winters over in Samara . We have two children and two grandsons living in Scotland, who keep us occupied during the Scottish 'summer'. Fortunately we are able to enjoy more than our fair share of sunshine by escaping to Samara for much of the Scottish winter.
Our time in Samara is spent enjoying our house and the beach; socialising with other like-minded retirees who either live here year round or who escape here from the northern winters; fishing (we keep a boat here) and quad biking, which is a great way to see some of the more remote parts of the area.
Margaret and Peter Watson purchased this villa in 2007
Why Margaret and Peter Watson chose Guanacaste
We had our Villa built for us in 2007 . We had been to Costa Rica on holiday and enjoyed it so much we decided to design a house and have it built to our specifications . We chose Samara because it is perfect for the kind of lifestyle we like: beautiful beaches, nice restaurants , friendly locals , great bars and just a nice laid back feel about the village .
What makes this villa unique
Our Villa is ideally situated up on a hill with views of the ocean but 15 minutes walk from the beach . It is a very quiet location but with a few villas close by safe and secure . We love sitting out on our large terrace watching the humming birds at the feeders listening to the the howler monkeys in the jungle at the back of the house and taking photo's of the amazing tropical birds which frequent and feed in the garden every day . Taking walk's along the 5km beach as the sun sets is one of our favourite 'things to do '

Beautiful home - surrounded by nature, yet close to amenities.
Our family stayed in this beautiful home and we were so pleased to be there. Our positive experience began with friendly and informative advice from the owner and continued with a happy and accommodating property manager.
The house is really nice. We loved the relaxed and pleasing decor. The entire home is bright and soothing and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The location is great - just a few minutes out of town (a car is necessary). We enjoyed lounging on the patio, feeling the breeze and admiring the iguanas and hummingbirds. The pool is perfect for a cool dip. We felt we were surrounded by nature, yet we weren't secluded or remote. Loved the shower in the master bath and the bidet!
The only thing to note is that the WiFi is unreliable and you should expect interruptions. I heard this is a general problem in Samara (although our experience with internet access in nearby coastal communities was completely reliable - so I'm not sure why Samara has issues).
The town of Samara and this home were the highlight of our trip - Highly recommended!
Samara Vacation Home
I have rented this house for extended times (approximately 5 months total) during 3 different trips since 2013. It sits in a comfortable small neighborhood of foreign nationals and with native Costa Rican houses mixed in on the outskirts of the neighborhood. Its location is a 20 minute walk to an undeveloped part of Playa Samara or a 5 minute drive to Samara's restaurants and shops. The property location also allows for a 10 minute drive to the beautiful undeveloped Playa Carrillo. It comes as advertised and is ideal for simple vacationing at an affordable price.
A great feature of the house is the elevated patio to enjoy simple entertaining , watching wild life in the yard or enjoying the view. It is very interesting watching the living habits of the multiple bird species and iguanas in the yard. Bring your binoculars! Occasionally you can view howler monkeys and you certainly hear them during multiple parts of the days. The favorite parts of staying here occur out on the patio watching wildlife , enjoying early morning breakfast and the evening to view the night sky or watch storms.
I would recommend this house to anyone that is looking for a reasonably priced , comfortable , fully equipped rental. In my 3 years coming here it is my first choice in the area when looking for an affordable , air conditioned house with a pool. The owners, Peter and Maggie, have been very accommodating and responsive. They provide local property management if you require immediate assistance.
