“Perfect for a nice, quite gateaway.”
Loved it, everything is very nice and clean and JP is very friendly. Even organized someone to get me to the lodge from the bus stop and also brought me to my next stay with his Tuktuk. Would definitely stay there again. 🤗

“One of the best vacations of our lifes and a very special place.”
We loved the familiar atmosphere at tuki tuki that the lovely host JP created. We met a lot of great people just by hanging out at the pool and bar and all the facilities are well taken care of. The location is also just right, not too central so its very relaxed and you get to see some animals like monkeys roaming around the place and not too far away from the beach and city center so everything is easy to reach by foot. As an added bonus the well equipped gym is right next door and if youre into that stuff they even offer muay thai and BJJ classes. We cannot recommend tuki tuki enough, it has a fixed place in our hearts and we are already planning when to come back.

“Great service, great place, great value.”
Beautiful little oasis tucked away from the main area of town but an easy walk to the beach, shops and restaurants.JP is such a nice man and a fabulous host. Clean, beautifully done rooms and a lovely common area around the pool. We saw a family of monkeys beside us in the trees on our last afternoon.

“Lovely accomodation just outside the center of Sámara.”
During our stay in Sámara we stayed at the Tuki Tuki Lodge. Besides the rooms, the lodge has a nice pool and bar area and the likable host J.P. immediatly makes you feel very much at home. As kind as he is to his guests, he is even more so to his cat Tigra and his dog Coconut who follows him like a shadow. Every morning Hazel makes different kinds of breakfast for the guests. We had a lovely time here and would certainly reccommend this location.

“Amazing stay in Samara!”
We loved absolutely everything about TUKI TUKI Lodge! Clean and spacious rooms, lovely garden and the pool area. The lodge is located just outside of Samara which makes it a perfect and quiet place to relax. I hope to go back there someday!

“Perfect night in Samara”
Everything was perfect, seriously, go to this place if you are in Samara. Is close to everything but quiet, rooms are new and fully equipped, bed was really nice and even A/C, not pointing directly to the bed was perfect. JP is a perfect host

“Met all expectations”
Great breakfast, location is 15/20 minutes walk to Center by well lit roads at night but this makes it a quiet but friendly place. Fantastic set up with really clean modern facilities and host JP and his staff make you feel really welcome.it really is 10 out of 10. Excellent bird and wildlife in and around the lodge.

I spent the last three nights of my trip at Tuki Tuki lodge and would come back in a heartbeat. JP gave me a warm welcome, even took a short tour of the city in a TukTuk and showed me the most important landmarks. Since the lodge is a little out of the way, it is very quiet, but even as a woman I felt safe walking back from the city in the dark. JP also gave me the bike to use freely, which made the distance even shorter. The room was clean and well equipped, the bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was prepared to order every morning and was very tasty. Thank you very much for your hospitality!

“Perfect stay and a Great time”
JP was such a great Host! From the beginning it felt like home. He gave us a Welcome tour through Samara in his Tuk Tuk and was always there if we had further questions. The Lodge is a quiet and pretty Place and a bit outside of the hustle. It‘s only a 20 min Walk to the city center or you can borrow one of JP‘s Bikes. We would definetly come back!

Almost everything. The owner is so kind and he helped us a lot. The hotel is very quiet. Since we had a car we didnt have any issue to go to beach and city center

“My new favourite accommodation in Samara!”
From the moment I arrived I was welcomed and felt at home. JP made sure that I had everything I needed. He offered recommendations on nearby restaurants, available excursions, live music etc. The breakfast is wonderful and the Pool was clean, refreshing and a great place to chill and read a book. Rooms were spotless and the bed was very comfortable. The location was perfect for me. Far enough away from the town for a quiet sleep but a short bike ride or walk to the beach, restaurant etc. My new favourite accommodation in Samara!
