Staff was super nice and friendly. The place was clean and had a very relaxed atmosphere. It was a pretty good location, a little far from the center, but not too far, and right next to a shop and a small restaurant.

“Wonderful staff, adorable cat, really cool building, amazing location!”
Such a safe and welcoming vibe! Just by looking at the outside you can tell this is a place to feel comfortable at. The drawings on the walls inside make you really feel like this is more than just your typical hostel. The fact there are only three four-bedroom rooms in the main house makes it feel much less intimidating to me at least.The staff was always so sweet and immediately helped me out anytime I needed something. The cat that has “adopted” the hostel as his home is super sweet but watch out for him if you’re eating cereal or a ham sandwich.

It was the best hostel we went to in costa rica. The vibe was very good. We were supposed to stay 4 night and we decided to stay for 10. Thank you Kevin and Avery for your hospitality. It was a pleasure!

We really enjoyed our stay in casa terra, I was there with a friend of mine for 8 nights and we honestly had so mouch fun. There’s very mouch stuff to do around Samara, so many nice people to meet and the hostel is located a bit out of the center which is pretty neat because you get to have a nice chill spot whenever you feel like you could need a rest:) The vibe of the hostel is pretty cool because it feels almost like home. You have a cozy chill out area on the terasse with nature surrounding you. The personal was very nice and friendly too, I think most of them are actually volunteers. And there was that one guy Kevin who showed us so mouch around the City it was very fun going out with him and also just to chill at the hostel:) He’s super friendly and helpful and it’s crazy how many people he knows in Sámara😂 So if you’re looking for a nice cozy hostel which is in the perfect distance to the town centre Cassa terra should be the choice

“Best experience in Costa Rica, I wanted to go back as soon as I left!”
The atmosphere of the hostel was excellent! The owners and volunteers were very welcoming and warm. The hostel is well located 5 minutes from the beach. I recommend the hotel 100%!

From the very first moment, this hostel felt like home. The vibe is warm, relaxed, and family-like – you’re welcomed instantly and it’s easy to connect with everyone. The two owners run the place with true passion, always friendly and full of great tips for exploring the area. The volunteers bring extra life and joy with little actions that brighten your day. If you’re looking for a peaceful place with a beautiful sense of community, this hostel is the perfect choice – a place you’ll find hard to leave.

More than just a hostel! I received such a warm welcome and felt at home right away. The place is full of handmade signs, art, and personal touches — cozy, unique, and full of good vibes. The beach and town are within easy walking distance (10-15 min) and there’s a supermarket just around the corner. The staff are incredibly kind and helpful — they really make this place special.
