Wohlfühloase
Pros:

Eine gemütliche Oase mit vielen liebevollen Details, geführt von unheimlich lieben und hilfsbereiten Gastgebern. Toller Pool, tolles Frühstück, wirklich zum wohlfühlen!

Cons:

Zum Strand sind es 5-7 Gehminuten - aber das weiss man vorher, wenn man die Beschreibung liest und es ist daher Jammern auf hohem Niveau.

Pros:

Très joli lodge bien entretenu avec une piscine sympa près de laquelle est servi le petit déjeuner
Seul bémol le bruit des motocyclettes débridées qui gâche la quiétude du lieu et rend les nuits difficiles

Pros:

Lovely staff, very attentive and really help you out when in trouble (I got sunburnt a little and the owner cut some aloe vera for me which really helped). The place is also well located, close to the beach but not on the main street so a quieter spot. The pool is also good to refresh when hiding from the sun.

Cons:

I missed the iron as our clothes were pretty crumpled from the trips before but otherwise this place was perfect for us.

Perfekt zum entspannen und relaxen, nicht weit vom Meer.
Pros:

Ein wirklich wunderbarer Aufenthalt! Die Lodge wird liebevoll von Lothar und Brigitte geführt – ausgesprochen freundlich, herzlich und stets hilfsbereit. Man fühlt sich vom ersten Moment an willkommen.

Der Pool ist groß, sehr gepflegt und lädt perfekt zum Entspannen ein. Das Zimmer war schön, geräumig und geschmackvoll eingerichtet, mit einem tollen Blick auf den Pool. Besonders angenehm ist auch die Lage: nicht weit vom Meer entfernt und das Dorf ist bequem fußläufig erreichbar.

Das Frühstück war ebenfalls sehr gut, mit Kaffee und Tee so viel man möchte. Insgesamt eine sehr ruhige, angenehme Atmosphäre und eine Unterkunft, die wir uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen können. Wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen.

Cons:

Nichts

Pros:

Super liebe Gastgeberin, hilfsbereit, Anlage wunderschön gemacht. Tolles Zimmer. mit Fan & Klima zum Wählen. Zum Strand ca.+/-6 Min. Pool auch sehr sauber. Bikder sind Authentisch.

Cons:

Manchmal hört man die Strasse. Moped oder Auto kann laut sein. Ist denke ich normal hier. Wenn man komplette Ruhe möchte, muss man ausserhalb vin Samara oder weit weg von Strasse. Für mich wars ok.

Pros:

The owners were very friendly and helpful. They provided a map of the area and great information on local places to eat. The pool was excellent. We didn't eat breakfast there so couldn't comment on it. We had an issue with our rental car and they were very helpful coordinating with the rental company for a replacement. That was greatly appreciated.

Pros:

Mit sehr viel Liebe und Geschmack eingerichtet, man merkt, dass es von einer Frau geführt wird - zur Begrüßung einen aus Handtüchern geformten Tierkopf und Muscheln auf dem Bett.

Cons:

Es liegt an einer Ausfahrtstrasse nach Norden, so dass es etwas laut werden kann, wir haben dennoch gut geschlafen

Fantastic and attentive stay with comfort.
Pros:

The stay at Samara Palm Lodge was great. The owners and staff were very friendly, personable and helpful. The rooms were equipped with a nice bed, a/c, hot showers, mini fridge, hangers for clothes. The pool area was nice and gets both sun and shade, pool temp nice to cool off.

Cons:

The only thing that I struggled with was only having a sheet for sleeping as I like the weight of a heavier blanket on at least some part of my body. I completely understand the use of sheets only as it is a warm climate. I asked for another sheet and was given one within 10 minutes.
