Casa Sendero de Monos - a modern gem in a private setting
Casa Sendero de monos was built in 2020. Our modern furnished house has 2 bedrooms and 2 fully equipped bathrooms. One of the bathrooms is accessible from both the room and the hallway. The bedrooms can be reached directly from the large living-dining area. Both rooms have sliding doors that lead directly to the pool area with outdoor shower. They are equipped with king-size beds, air conditioning and fans. A children's travel cot is available and can be set up if necessary. There are two built-in wardrobes between the bedrooms and the bathrooms. The kitchen is equipped with a refrigerator, dishwasher, oven with ceramic hob, microwave, toaster and mixer. In the living room there is a 55 inch smart TV and an internet radio, and a 50" mart tv in each bedroom. WIFI is available in all rooms and on the terrace. A BBQ is avaiable outside. The large terrace with pool has space for 4 sun loungers and a dining table where you can enjoy your meals outdoors. Of course, you can also use the kitchen island for this. The property (1,35 acre) is located in a quiet environment, only 3 km from Samara and the beach. The name of the house speaks for itself, you can often see the howler monkeys climbing along the trees on the property directly from the terrace. Enjoy the tranquility of the jungle close to the wonderful beaches and the center of Samara.

Very nice property, we had a great time. A few short power outages ,but that can’t be helped. More time spent cleaning the house between guests would be appreciated.A bbq brush and a spare propane tank would round out our issues .
Private ,Quality , Holiday home, perched in a Jungle

The property was in such a beautiful place! So Peaceful and wonderful place to hang out and relax with Mother Nature. Was a quick drive to town and beaches, making it a perfect place to stay. We will be returning for sure.

We had an amazing time and enjoyed our stay. The amazing song birds, jungle animals and monkeys were wonderful. Hat a wonderful experience. We enjoyed the pool morning, noon and night!
The private pool and very well equipped kitchen were perfect for our 10 day stay! Manager was always available to answer questions. We really enjoyed our stay.
My family and I truly enjoyed this house. It is a bit of a trek up into the woods but so worth it.
The house is very clean and fairly well appointed. It was very easy to communicate with the manager with regards to getting in and settled as well as recommendations in the area.
We were visited almost daily by a troop of monkeys which was incredible.
We highly recommend this house and the town of Samara
5 star property and amenities! The home is perfectly suited for a family of four. Home was clean and inviting for our family. The beds were fantastic and the kitchen was fully stocked with dishes, pots, pans and utensils. Pool was perfect for an evening cool off after a day at the beach. We loved every minute!
The house in the woods was beautiful and very private. Well stocked with everything including beach chairs and towels. Very short distance to town as well. Sven the property manager was very helpful with suggestions to restaurants and anything else we needed. Sven and owners had excellent communication with us. We absolutely loved it!
We loved our stay at Casa Sendero de Monos! Everything was just right. The home was clean and modern and close to town (great location). Coming back from a day in Samara it was great to have the pool to jump into and to sleep with A/C and comfortable beds. The property was quiet and serene with lovely plants, birds, monkeys and butterflies that we enjoyed watching. We hope to return!
Nice place! Very private, yet close to town (7 minute drive). The pool was a lot of fun.
Cons:
Trash disposal was not ideal.
Electricity went out about 5 - 6 time a day.
Would rent again.
This was our second stay at Casa Sendero de Monos. It was just as lovely this time as the last. Private pool was wonderful. One morning we sat at watched a troop of monkeys for three hours frolicking in the woods. Even saw a baby on his Mama's back!
The kitchen is extremely well appointed (we like to cook). Bed is comfortable, plenty of towels and so forth. Overall, we look forward to returning next year!
Just returned from a 9 night stay at this beautiful private home! My husband and our 2 children (ages 6 and 12) were comfortable and happy during our stay!The home is a great fit for 4 people as a family or two couples! It has eveything you need in the kitchen and beyond. We ere happy to use the towels provided for the pool as well as tolwes/chairs and such for the beach!The pool is lovely! Its just under 5 ft deep.We were greeted by monkeys, butterflies and iguanas daily.The AC in the bedrooms were a must! A nice breeze does feel good at the property but the house gets hot fast.I would recommend 4x4 vehicle as the roads in samara woods to access the house are hilly/windy - definitely noy walkable to town (not that we expected that ahead of time!) But just close enough (8min drive) to downtown to eat and enjoy many of the local places, shop for groceries or enjoy the beach!Lucas the PM was attentive and helpful when needed.We did expereince 1 large (expected/planned) power outage and a few short ones - typical of C.RYou will also have lots of different bugs around you joining you inside and outside. The only negative remark would be about the slight sewage smell from the private bathtoom - we sre familiar with septics so I assume it was from that. A full length mirror would also be nice to havr but these are small things.We would love to return again someday!The
We just returned home from an amazing three week vacation at Casa Sendero de Monos. This lovely modern home is clean, organized, uncluttered and well stocked with everything you need. It’s perfect for two couples or a family of four. The kitchen is spacious and equipped with good quality pots, dishes, knives etc. We appreciated the beach chairs, beach towels, ample bathroom towels, outdoor drying rack, good quality BBQ and cleaning supplies. The beds are very comfortable and the AC in the bedrooms is great. We felt very safe and noticed the high quality doors and windows. This large beautifully landscaped property is serene and private. The surrounding forest/jungle resonates with the songs of tropical birds, crickets and howler monkeys. It is MAGICAL !!! The monkeys royally entertained us as they travelled through their “pathway” of trees. GREAT for birding!! We loved the large refreshing pool and covered patio area. We loved this location because we felt totally surrounded by nature but we were only 7-10 minutes from Samara. The owner and property manager responded quickly to enquiries/questions. Additionally, the owner has thoughtfully supplied umbrellas, several reference books for flora and fauna and thorough instructions to refer to during your stay.We would definitely book this place again!Henning & Beate,Thank you for sharing your “slice of paradise” with us!PURA VIDA!Stephanie D
We had the pleasure 2 stay here for 2 wonderful weeks. The house and grounds exceeded our expectations .As others have said the house is fully equipped and the owner was always very responsive . The pool and deck are situated so you can get all the sun you want or not at all ,which for me was great I like the shade. Samara is a great town !

Beautiful property in quiet setting. My husband and I stayed here for a week in April and it was perfect for us. The outdoor area is amazing - private pool, dining table, loungers, hammock and covered spaces. The home is well appointed, clean, up to date and super comfortable. AC in the bedrooms made sleep so comfortable. Fully appointed kitchen and having laundry was a plus. A car is definitely necessary as you need to drive everywhere. Sven, the property manager was fantastic and so helpful and hospitable. Thanks for a great vacation!!
The house was beautiful, quiet, and in a great neighborhood. It was well equipped with everything needed for our stay. The owner and local manager were very communicative and available before and throughout our stay. The only small negative was that the AC was in the bedrooms only and there was no AC in the living area of the house. However, that was a relatively small inconvenience and the outdoor space gave a place to sit and visit with friends during the cooler evenings. We greatly enjoyed our visit and would stay here again when in the area.
Most well-equipped VRBO/vacation rental we have been to. The kitchen was great! Had extras like laundry detergent, shelf stable milk and dish soap!
Extremely comfortable bed, plenty of towels and loved the options for eating inside versus outside.
Property was well-cared for, lovely landscaping...we even had resident tree squirrels and toucans. GREAT bird watching. We were also lucky enough to see the monkeys.
The pool topped off the entire trip. While we love the ocean, and spent quite a bit of time in Samara, we also enjoyed the peace and quiet of lounging around our own private pool.
Communication with property owners/manager was top notch and easy.
We are hoping to return next year!
Cette villa est superbe! Nous avons l’ habitude de louer des villas pour nos vacances et celle ci est vraiment top! Les chambres sont grandes avec une literie très confortable. La cuisine est tellement bien équipée avec un barbecue de compétition sur la terrasse! La piscine très agréable et tout cela à quelques minutes du centre de Samara. Sven, le gestionnaire, se préoccupe vraiment de savoir si tout se passe bien et est très réactif. Bravo!!!!Si nous revenions en vacances dans la région, nous relouerions cette villa sans hésiter.
Exceeded our best hopes. This is a wonderful home on a beautiful property within a 10 minute drive from Samara (2 hours from Liberia airport). It is quiet, serene and comfortable with all the amenities of home. We loved the open space of the home, well equipped kitchen, and lovely outdoor patio, private pool to relax and be nestled within nature; we loved spending our mornings and evenings on the deck watching the birds, butterflies and animals drop by. Easy to get to the beautiful Samara and Corrello beaches. Highly recommend and would definitely return. Very helpful property manager and host.
Wonderful property. Comfortable, clean, everything worked, kitchen had all the basic equipment to prepare a meal. We wanted to try the Samara Wood area and the location worked well for us. We wanted privacy and serenity. Close enough to town but not too close. Must have a vehicle.
The house was perfect for our needs. Spacious, and fun with the pool and the nature. We had fun looking at some monkeys and the birds. It was stocked up with stuff you might need, and Sven was very helpful. The host was quick to respond from the beginning to end. Thank you!
Our stay in Samara was wonderful and our accommodations moved it from great to Fabulous. I only have positive things to share, everything was great from how well the kitchen is set up to the excellent service from Sven our property manager to the meticulous cleaning by Emmy. A special thank you to Sven for checking in frequently and providing recommendations on local restaurants, he’s a great source of information.
The house is about a 5 minute drive to Samara and you will need a car as it is too far to walk to town, especially considering the house is built high up on a hill. The surrounding forest resonated with the sounds of nature, we saw monkeys, gorgeous butterflies and tons of tropical birds, a true paradise. We drank our morning coffee on the deck watching the birds, swam in the pool while being entertained by the monkeys and enjoyed all our meals at the outdoor table, a true delight. Highly recommend this home 😊
