Unassuming little piece of paradise. Steps to the beach but far enough that noise isn't an issue. The gardens are beautiful but can't compare to how friendly the staff and owner are. They always have time for their guests and coming back at the end of the day from the beach you can be sure that you will get a... More

Casa Paraiso is a quite, perfect place to stay in Samara. Close to the beach and everything it has clean and simple rooms. Sabina and all the staff are always very kind and helpful; they make you just feel at home, with all the animals and the vegetables growing in the garden! We came back a second time to Samara...

We were recommended this hotel by the Samara info center. We were impressed with the large rooms and king size bed in our room. The room was very clean and updated. The walls were colourful and welcoming. The owner Sabina was great! We had some great conversations and she was very welcoming. It is about 5 minutes from the beach,... More

We stopped at Casa Pariso because they had a sign outside saying $30 for a double room with hot water, so glad we did. Sabina was genuinely friendly and the room was spacious and excellent value. They have rescued a bird that fell out of a tree and we really enjoyed playing with him. The place is close to the... More

The rooms are lovely and very clean and it's only a short walk from the beautiful beach of Samara.In the place there is also... More

We stayed in Casa Paraiso for only one night. Rooms are very basic, so if you are used to five star hotels this is not a place for you. We went there in the end of November and paid only $30 per room. Sabrina, the Italian owner, was very nice and helpful. Free internet, off street parking. For additional $10... More

We didn't stay in the room, but did eat at Sabina's restaurant two nights. It is a vegetarian restaurant, but especially when you are not a vegetarian you should try her amazing food. She cooks with the kind of love only italian women know how to.

Hotel is close to the beach, but that's the only good thing about it. No televisions in the rooms as show in their ads, and the beds have horrible, cheap mattresses. The worst part was they did not clean or make up the room once during our stay. One night when I awoke to a large pile of Gecko poop... More
