Had a wonderful stay in Samara. The bed was comfy. Very good security. The washing machine was great! The kitchen needed a few more utensils, big spoons, good steak knives, no toaster, no salad bowl, we had to buy a lemon press, no good cleaning cloths for the kitchen & could not find a brush to clean the toilet. Lots of ants & termites even in our bed. You definitely need a vehicle because it’s very hot in January & is a 40 minute walk to the town of Samara, but only 10 minutes from Buenavista Beach which is the best place to watch sunsets. Walked a few times early in the morning & it was fine but you do need to get back.
