What Not to Expect

checkmark
High-End Luxury Nammbu is more of an economical, family-friendly resort rather than a high-end property, better suited for guests with simpler tastes who prioritize beaches and nature over luxury.
checkmark
True Beachfront Although it has "beachfront" in its name, the beach is, in fact, at the bottom of a long staircase and across the street. It's very close, but not beachfront.
checkmark
Ease of Getting Around The property is hilly, which can make walking to the beach or around the grounds somewhat challenging for some guests.

Experience Nammbu Beachfront Bungalows

Your boutique escape by the water.

Welcome to Nammbu Beachfront Bungalows

The Nammbu Beach Bungalows are located above Playa Carrillo, near the beach community of Samara on Costa Rica's the Nicoya Peninsula. Carrillo, a perfect horseshoe-shaped beach with golden sands packed with palms, is considered one of Costa Rica's most beautiful beaches.

Located just 50 meters from the sand, Nammbu offers excellent and easy access to this beautiful beach, and it's a perfect place for families, couples, and groups seeking a comfortable and affordable hotel by the ocean.

Comfort and Value

With 63 rooms, Nammbu is larger than most hotels in this area, but it retains a boutique feel rather than a resort-like atmosphere. It's a simple place for lazy days by the pool or ocean and relaxing quiet nights.

The rooms and suites at Nammbu are spacious and comfortable. They come with either two queen beds or kings and have garden or ocean views. Guests will enjoy all the usual amenities of an upscale hotel, including air conditioning, orthopedic mattresses on the beds, flatscreen cable TVs, private bathrooms, safes, WiFi, and more.

Outside the rooms, there's a large pool area looking over the beach, a spa offering a variety of treatments for anyone seeking even more relaxation, and a restaurant offering a delectable international menu. A buffet breakfast comes included in the room rate.

A Perfect Beach for Families

The main reason to come here is to relax and enjoy the beach. Playa Carrillo is a calm, sandy beach perfect for kids to splash around and enjoy. Other nearby activities include horseback riding, nature tours to turtle nesting beaches, fishing, ATV tours, zip lining, and more.

Easy Access to a Beautiful Beach

Playa Carrillo itself, a short walk down the hill, also has a few restaurants and bars to enjoy a short walk away. The beach town of Samara is close by, too, and offers a wide variety of eating spots, stores, and places to enjoy a sunset cocktail.

Our agent made our honeymoon stress-free and fun! She was available throughout, even when I felt unwell early in the trip. Her support and great recommendations helped us feel better fast. So grateful for the special touches she added along the way.
