Stayed for almost a month. Has everything you need to relax and enjoy your time. Lots of stairs to the top floor but worth it for the view. Very secure building and close to beach and town. The large deck was a huge bonus. Would have felt claustrophobic without it. Any issues were dealt with immediately.

this is a terrible choice. there is no elevator to the 4th floor, AC cuts off a lot, super tiny room with a small bed. the pull out sofa is not a pull out sofa, its a bunch of crappy cushions. they ask you to account for each and every item in the unit on a 4 page printed list and will charge you even if everything was turned back ok.

Beautiful Condo
We stayed here for a month during a Spanish immersion class, and couldn't have been happier. The street where the condo is located is on a dead-end street so there is very little traffic, yet it's close to town and the beach so we were able to walk everywhere. The condo itself is well-equipped and maintained very well--any problems we had were promptly addressed. There is a manager on-site so we were well taken care of. The view was outstanding! All in all, a great stay. I heartily recommend staying here if you're in Samara.

There’s construction right next door. So all The outdoor spaces were unusable because of noise pollution. I thought it’d be ok because I’m from nyc…. It’s much louder and really takes away from the view ans everything else it has to offer. It was so loud I couldn’t even have a conversation with my friends right next to me. The owner only refunded half of the last night saying he has written it down. So- it’s much worse than what is written when it is experienced. Not worth going to a peaceful place to get bothered by loud obtrusive construction noises. Really defeats the purpose.

Great location in Samara!
Great location on the west side of Samara beach. Awesome views from the porch area with lots of birds and howler monkeys. Very quiet area as this condo is away from the center of town but very easy to get into town and very close to the beach (5 min walk and you're there). Also great sodas located close by.

If you are reading this, do yourself a favor and press the BOOK IT button and then come back to this review. I am giving Patrick's property across-the-board 5 stars but, in truth, I wanted to give one or two 4 star ratings because I feel the listing UNDER sells this property. Located 10 min (if you're walking slowly) from the city center on a quiet street, this beautiful property has it all: view, location, wonderfully clean and welcoming spaces, privacy and a delightful plunge pool when it just gets too hot in the late afternoon. The team who manage the property were 100% responsive and their lovely warmth and welcoming natures made us feel right-at-home. We stayed in the top floor and while the patio is 'shared' we essentially had it to ourselves. The deep patio provides shelter from the sun and the lovely furniture (no expense spared!) welcomed our tired bodies and gave us a safe place to rest and recharge. Evenings are lovely there too as you can enjoy the sunset, the view of the the bay, and shelter from the topical rains. Waking to the monkeys in the trees behind the building with utter privacy is a delight, the bathroom and living space are well designed, and the entire area feels soft -- like being hugged by that lovely uncle or aunt who hold you tenderly and lovingly. Honestly, I cannot be more complimentary!

We were looking for a quiet, relaxing place and found it in condo Dahlia. Just a few hundred yards to the beach and about 1/4 mile walk to town, it is perfectly situated. The huge shared balcony right outside our door gave us roomy outdoor space whether sharing with one of the neighbors or enjoying by ourselves. The locked, covered parking spot and Denis' presence help you feel very secure. The beach chairs, umbrella, and towels were a nice add-on, making excursions to the beach easy and comfortable. The only downside for some (not for us) would be the 77 steps you must climb each time you return to the condo. But the trade off is the view. It goes on and on. Good job, Patrick, on creating a nice vacation oasis. One we hope to return to some day.

This delightful condo is loaded with amenities and located within walking distance to beach and town. Clean, bright, and modern, we were very happy to stay here. The top floor location has a million dollar view and a huge covered patio out front and a shady deck out back with a fan to keep you cool while watching the howler monkeys troop through every day.

Fantastic location and stunning view.
The condo was perfect and well-equipped for the two of us, close to town and the beach. Very clean and well maintained. We never used the car once we arrived, we walk to town and the beach every day. Patrick even provided chairs for us to take to the beach. We enjoyed watching the howler monkeys who lived in the trees behind the Condo. We can’t wait to come back next year .

Modern Beautiful Condo
The views are stunning, front is a horse ranch and the beach. The back is trees w lots of monkeys. The condo is beautiful w large windows to enjoy the views including the shower. The on site staff are wonderful at their job and wonderful people. The location is great. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend these condos. Next is the only issue we had 👇🏻 There is a lot of steps to the condo. Make sure w Laura, upon your arrival someone is there to help w the bags. Laura assisted by 1) making a joke to our cab driver to help w the bags. He offered (we would have paid after our long journey) she laughed and told him to leave 2) carrying two grocery bags up and leaving them outside. When I mentioned to her she left them outside, she replied “well I don’t know what’s in there”. Upon our arrival Laura said we were probably late because we have gone food shopping. I have the email where Laura recommended going food shopping. This doesn’t make her a bad person, just be very clear w details when scheduling your arrival. Also, there is a pool to enjoy. Enjoy your modern condo!

Stunning condo inside and out
We had the pleasure of staying in Patrick's brand new condo for 6 nights..It was heaven.The kitchen is well equipped with a functional layout.The outdoor eating area was nice to sit at and watch the monkeys in the trees above.The fridge had an ice maker which came in handy for going to the beach with a cooler.The modern shower had plenty of hot water.The bedroom had massive closets and a comfortable bed for a perfect nights sleep.The pool area was clean and had an outdoor grill.The condo has lots of windows and two outdoor sitting areas .Watching sunrise from the veranda was a highlight. The grocery store is walking distance and the beach is just down the road about 200 meters.Patrick also provided beach chairs .This was a nice touch. .Laura,,Xenia and Denis work very hard to maintain this property and we're such a pleasure to talk to.We will definitely return.pura vida
