The units provide views of the mountain and come with a seating area, a washing machine, a fully equipped kitchen with a microwave, and a private bathroom with a hair dryer and free toiletries. A toaster, a fridge and stovetop are also available, as well as a coffee machine and a kettle. At the holiday home, each unit includes bed linen and towels.

Everything was perfect, the host, Xavier was really kind and fully available. The place was great, clean and perfect for a family escape. The pool, the fruit's ree (lemon, grapefruit, etc), the location, 5 min from Samra and Carillo beach, make this place a unavoidable. I'll recommend for sure to anyone, it worth the price (not too expensive, we were the mid November).

Nosara is 34 km from Hotel Villas Tangerine, while Carrillo is 12 km away. The nearest airport is Tamarindo Airport, 92 km from the property.

The minute we entered the property, we felt relaxed and at ease. Jenna and her husband worked wonders and you feel the love in every little detail. Breakfast is served in a small rancho with a view towards horses, cows and other animals. The breakfast itself is made with love and attention to detail by Jenna, who is also an excellent tour guide and knows the area very well. Pool to cool down, all necessary amenities in the rooms, what else do you need?

Very nice spot. Very clean bungalow. Kitchen has everthing you need and also very clean. Always hot water, good water pressure. Moskitonets everywhere. Pool and garden very clean and well-kept. The last part of the street very bumpy, but you can do it slowly without a 4x4. Location in the nature, but still close to Sàmara. You need a car to get there. Parking was safe. Very good price! We would come again!

    We all loved the swimming pool and the outdoor area. The location was private, behind two gates to enter. The Villa was a few miles out of town, but we were able to park at the parking lot were we picked up the keys whenever we came to Samara. The staff was helpful and friendly.

    We stayed at Villas Tangerine 6 nights and it was amazing! Jenna is so welcoming and personable. We loved that we could walk to town and the beach and cook a meal if we wanted to. The breakfast was like a gourmet restaurant. We loved to sit in the swinging chairs after dark and watch the moon and stars. It really was the highlight of our trip. Thank you Jenna! We hope to come back someday.

    Hotel Villas Tangerine was pure heaven, I loved my stay so much. I was only there for a day so just swung in the hammock watching the birds and the goats and dipping into the pool. Jenna had such a good energy and cooked a delicious fresh breakfast and was so very helpful for my onward journeying. It's so peaceful with cool planting and my room was so well styled. I loved the walk over to the wild beach, 15 mins to watch the local fish. THANK YOU x

    Wow! Wow! Wow! We loved our stay at Villas Tangerine. Jenna and Drew are the kindest, most generous pair, offering wonderful hospitality (even kindly going to collect my sandals I had left somewhere!). The hotel is set within lush grounds which are the perfect place to relax. The breakfasts were wonderful and varied and full of freshness and healthy, tasty treats. We just wish we could have stayed longer and were sad to leave . We definitely hope to be back. Do not hesitate to book this place. Thanks again both, with love Fran and Emma x

    Friendly and welcoming staff, including one of the hotel's owners, our room was small but recently renovated. The hotel's location is hard to beat, a bit off the village hence very calm but a 10 min walk along the beach if you fancy "downtown" Samara. The beach bar is great, feet in the sand while you sip your drink or beer. Very good restaurant too. In a nutshell, highly recommended.
