La posizione del Lodge è perfetta per chi cerca tranquillità, è nella zona nord della città affacciato direttamente sulla spiaggia, ha anche una piscina sul mare.
è un luogo intimo , non ospita troppi turisti, quindi…

Samara Lodge is a very good choice. Sabria is a fantastic host. Her staff are very caring.
The breakfast was good. The plate of fruits and the fruit juice were my addiction!!
More than everything the location of the restaurant was my favorite spot!!

Directly on the beachfront, beautiful views.
This part of the beach gets really busy and noisy during the day, and on some nights.

That the desk is staffed when you land, and that the room is held past cut-off.
Whether there is room for a pickup, a trailer or a van, not just a car.
Whether the rate moves for your dates, and what it includes.

Questions about Samara Lodge

What time is check-in and check-out at Samara Lodge?

Check-in is from 12:00 PM. Check-out is by 12:00 PM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.

Does Samara Lodge allow pets?

No — the property states that pets are not allowed.

Is there parking at Samara Lodge?

Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.

Does Samara Lodge have a pool?

Yes — a pool is listed among the property's facilities. Seasonal closures are common, so we'll confirm it's open for your dates.

Does Samara Lodge have Wi-Fi?

Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.

Does Samara Lodge have wheelchair accessible rooms?

The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.

Can I check in late at Samara Lodge?

The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 12:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.

How do I book Samara Lodge?

Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
