Montelaguna was a really perfect stay for us in the Samara area. It was perfectly situated between Playa Carrillo and Playa Samara so we were able to enjoy both beaches easily. The staff were always ready and kindly booked tours, accommodated special requests and were just a pleasure to deal with day to day. The housekeeping was prompt and thorough as well. We would stay here again no question.

Loved It!!

This place was amazing from the second we arrived. Staff person checking us in was polite, accommodating and made you feel like you were best friends. Because it’s a smaller hotel, we got to know all of the staff and they couldn’t have been nicer people! On site parking was easy. Location was quiet except for some road noise. Walking to Playa Samara beach was convenient and took less than 10 minutes down a dirt road. Room was large with a separate foyer area that had a sink and mini fridge. Pool is nice. Breakfast was good as were the drinks. We did not eat lunch or dinner so can’t comment on that. Three minute drive to Playa Carrillo - which is an amazing beach. Seven minute drive to downtown Samara. Nothing negative to say about this place - check it out!

Wonderful Hotel

This was our second stay at this hotel and it was just as we remembered. Friendly, helpful staff. Walking distance to two beautiful beaches and a quiet, peaceful setting. The rooms are large but sparse. The staff was prompt in getting whatever we requested. They even made decaf coffee especially for me in the mornings! The only thing I could say for me personally and maybe for others is the cleaner used to wash the floors in the rooms was too strongly scented and lingered in the room. We will definitely be returning for another wonderful stay. Thank you

Extremely comfortable mattress. Large room. Nice shower with good water pressure. Nice balcony. Restaurant is a bit expensive, but the food is good. The included breakfast is not good. There should be more options. Cleanliness is ok. Staff is ok. Proximity to Playa Carrillo and Playa Sámara is great. You need to have a car to find some other restaurants, because there’s nothing around. The hotel is very close to the road. You can hear the motorcycles constantly. There were A LOT of children at the hotel. A. LOT. With all the noise and mess children bring in a Boutique Hotel….running in the corridors at 6:30 am, screaming in the pool, etc.

Not the best experience!

Very small hotel, one pool, room was nice but overall disappointed for a few reasons. Hotel away from town, nothing close by to walk to in evening for entertainment or restaurants. When we arrived, we were told of the many adventures they offered. We saw a sign on the desk and could see it was for $40 massages. We inquired about having a massage but were told they no longer had a massage person but would call and see if one could be arranged. She took the sign and turned it over so we couldn't see it any longer. When we asked about the price she said it would be around $50-55. She also asked if we wanted it done at the hotel. After her call, she told us we would have to drive to the location and the price would be $80. Next, we booked a night outing to see turtles come up to lay eggs. Later was told the operator required a min. of 6 people to do the trip, so never happened. But the worse thing was the owner manager who was very controlling and condescending. The owner served our breakfast but right from the start, he basically lectured me on how not to raise the glass to be served juice. I did it to be helpful, but he was so condescending in his "how to do' lecture. That I finally said to him "if this was a fine dining experience, I would not have touched the glass". He was real off putting and insulting. Very controlling personality, we had a few other things happen which I can't explain bec. of limited space allowed. Not recommend!

We killed about 60 ants in the room and there was a lizard to. There was two wasp nest on the balcony. We could not change the beach towels for our 5 days stay. We had to reserve at the restaurant because if we do not they do not call the chef to make the food. We had the family loft.

This is a decent option for staying in/near Samara. Bear in mind it is a five-six minute drive to town/main beach stretch. The staff were excellent, particularly Loydes, who was so genuine and helpful. The pool is great for kids. Bathroom was a bit dated and moldy unfortunately. Included breakfast was nice and appreciated.

Pros: habitaciones del hotel, tamaño, limpieza. Buen desayuno en cantidad (mismo menú todos los días). Servicio adecuado más no excelente del staff. Contras: pocas opciones de alimentación dentro del hotel (menú limitado a menos de 20 opciones y, no siempre hubo disponibilidad de lo que se ofrecía en el menú). Estuvimos por 4 días y, sencillamente tuvimos que ir al centro de Sámara a comer en algunas oportunidades ya que no había disponibilidad de algunas opciones o simplemente para no comer lo mismo. Los jardines les falta mantenimiento.

Loved the place. Nice hot breakfast. Everyone was very helpful and nice. The room is very nicely decorated and the place looks well taken care off. There is also a security guard walking around during the night. So it's pretty safe. The only thing I would suggest is to be on top of the refilling of product provided. We barely had enough liquid soap for 1 shower. No other shower soap provided, so we used the hand soap the rest of the time. We also ran out of shampoo (the bottle was almost empty when we got there). Also no coffee pods in the room. None of it was a big deal to us, however maybe other people would mind.
