W were in this posada for three nights. we weren't sure about staying there for so long, but each day,beacuse it was such a great place, we decieded to stay another night... (our vacation were only three weeks in Costa Rica so we wanted to see a lot... but it was the longest we stayed in one place).
The place is very very clean, and the owners really make you feel at home. they also knows about the good beaches in that area, and they also told us about the big event which a lot of femals turtle r lying there eggs, without them telling us that we wouldnt know.
it also has a very nice kichen. a nice yard, close to the beach and located close to the center of Smara, but still it is a quiet place.
for a closer ill say that it was the best place we stayed in our honeymoon.
enjoy and Pura Vida

Very clean and friendly hotel. A nice place to stay over, the owners are very helpfull and friendly. Use of free internet, washing machine, kitchen, body boards ect. The rooms are spotless and the beach is very close. Overall a very good place to stay!!

My Cousin and I stayed at the Posada Matilori for the second half of our 2 week trip to Costa Rica. The town was so nice and welcoming, and our experiences in Samara were amazing. I think staying at the Posada was a huge part of that. Stefano and Yorlenni were so sweet and helpful and just all around amazing people. We were sad to leave. The rooms were beautiful and the place was kept up immaculately. Having free laundry, internet and use of the kitchen was also a giant perk. I would definitely stay there again and will tell all my friends going to Samara to stay at Posada Matilori.

We were desperately looking for a good place where to sleep, after a nightmare night in hotel close to the beach. Luckily we found this nice place, in a side street, far enough from the noise, but at walking distance from the beach and amenities.

The description on Lonely planet guide is actually old: they have now 7 seven rooms and not 4, of different sizes and prices. They are divided in 2 small buildings. Both buildings have a common bathroom ad a big communal kitchen. The rooms are nicely decorated, and the woman of the house add here and there classy touches, like the fresh flower decorations on the freshly changed towels.

The bathroom is shared in both buildings: usually I prefer en suite, but the bathrooms were constantly cleaned, morning till evening and I felt perfectly ok in using them.
Also, our room was cleaned and the towels changed every day.

The Posada is quiet, super clean (the owners clean it from morning till evening continuously), and safe. There is free internet and a washing machine (a blessing for backpack travellers like us!).
The owners are very nice and helpful, and they speak spanish, english and italian.

We had also the the luck to see some monkeys passing by in the garden! Doesn't happen often, but can happen!
