薩莫拉豪華渡假村

This is, undeniably, a wonderful and highly esthetic place. We would say, it is even better than it looks in the pictures. Whoever created and manages this resort, must, obviously, be very talented. Neither do we consider ourselves to be hotel testers nor do we, in a frenzy of emotions, consider every other hotel we visit to be the best we have ever stayed at. We travel a lot for pleasure, have traveled to 150 countries. In the midst of the Covid lockdowns alone, we traveled to Maui, California, Bora Bora, the Maldives, Rome, Florence, the Swiss Alps, and many other European destinations. One of the last hotels we stayed at before we came here was the Ritz Paris. What we want to say is that we are not easily impressed. But the esthetics of this place, how every detail was well designed, well maintained and thought through in its practicality, in combination with the beautiful pacific coastline and talented staff, that was in a good mood and allowed to express their personalities, which is not to be taken for granted, impressed us.

Las instalaciones son unicas y muy lindas. Tienen al mejor staff! Te hacen sentir como en casa, atención máxima y la mejor cocina. Fue una gran experiencia. Supero mis expectativas.

Pesimo hotel y servicio. Es un chantaje ya que en las fotos de la publicacion ves unas fotos y en realidad son otras. Las camas, sabanas, muebles y el cuarto en general no concuerda. Las habitaciones solo tienen aire acondicionado en el area de las camas, el resto de la habitacion es un horno. Las puertas y ventanas son de madera completa por lo que no dejan pasar la luz. Si quieres tener el cuarto con clima, necesitas estar a obscuras y sin vista al exterior. El personal no esta calificado para atender al huesped y dar una experiencia luxury. Pareciera que son amas de llaves comunes de un hogar, no tienen conocimiento de hotelería.

The boutique resort is located on miles of solitary beachfront which helps to disconnect. The grounds are well kept and the pool is incredible. The staff was courteous and attentive. Leti, the manager, was very nice and arranged all of our excursions and transportation. Food was varied with several dining options. The crashing waves added to the drama and the homes along the beach adjacent to the hotel are spectacular.

Exceptional hotel, fantastic personel, it was a dream for 4 days

Un paraíso! La hospitalidad de Sammy y Letty, el olor del lugar, las flores, la alberca, la playa increíble, la privacidad, el perrito Dream! Es la segunda vez que visito Samora y seguro regresaré pronto, mi lugar favorito!

El equipo de hospitalidad , Lety, Moi y Daniel son sensacionales y el lugar más que recomendable. Tu casa en la playa.

Our stay at Samora was truly an experience of a lifetime! I use the word experience intentionally because Samora is no ordinary hotel. Imagine a modern beach mansion on a private playa with a full-time staff looking after your every need. If that isn’t enough, imagine that every inch of the house should be considered “art” and that every piece of the furniture was imported from all over the world. Still not enough? Now imagine a private chef that cooks all of your meals to order at reasonable prices. I’m not exaggerating. Samora is an amazing find even for folks accustomed to luxury travel. I spent 4 days here with my brother and will be going back as soon as I can with other family and friends. The hotel was “full” for a portion of my stay but still allowed for nearly total privacy if that is what you desire. We had a really special time and also ended up enjoying the company of the other guests. Samora offers incredible rooms, a 40m oceanfront pool, professional staff, great food, and even a well-behaved dog named “Dream (Sueño)” whose name comes from the fact that Samora is the lifelong dream of the owner Sammy. This is his dream home and he spared no expense. Speaking of Sammy...if he’s around during your stay (and he often is), you are in for a real treat! This is likely the longest review I’ve ever written and that is because this is one of the most special places I’ve ever been and I hope that others will choose to experience it too! See you at Samora!

El hotel es hermoso, la amabilidad de los empleados y del dueño fue excepcional. Lo único que creo que puede mejorar es la limpieza del estudio que nos tocó. La regadera es muy incómoda ya que no hay cristal y se moja todo el baño. Habían cucarachas por falta de fumigación y limpieza. Todo lo demás excelente! Mil gracias y sin duda, esperamos volver y jugar con Dreams :)

Es muy bonito pero de difícil acceso, necesitas auto o ir mentalizado a no salir de ahí. Los precios son altos y no reciben tarjeta

Es un lugar parisino para alejarte del estrés de la ciudad e ir solo a relajarte. El hotel esta hermoso y la atencion de la gente es increible, te hacen sentir como en casa... Me enamore por completo del lugar!!!

Samora is an incredibly relaxing place. We were lucky to have the resort to ourselves during our stay and Sammy and his staff were fantastic and provided great hospitality. The grounds at Samora are incredible and made for an unforgettable stay. I will be back!

The place is just beautiful. The people there are extremely kind and helpful. Sammy, the owner, is very nice! Great place to spend a few days, relax and enjoy. The local dog, Dream, is a very friendly host!

Excelente experiencia

El hotel esta increible, es un verdadero paraiso. Lo mejor son las personas que te tratan como si estuvieras en casa. La comida es espectacular.. Sin duda regreso..lo mejor de oaxaca es este hotel

Es un lugar con mucho encanto, donde te hacen sentir realmente como en casa. El servicio es sobresaliente por su atención esmerada, simpatía y ganas de atenderte en todas tus necesidades. La cocina, a tu elección, es de un elevado nivel. La playa es infinita, la belleza del hotel y las vistas desde él, espectaculares. El que sea pequeño también es importante, ya que hay pocos huéspedes y no hay que luchar por la sombrillas... La alberca una maravilla, el jacuzzi, las cenas románticas que te preparan desde una terraza privada... Lo recomiendo para una estancia tranquila, romántica y sin niños que alteren la paz. Para olvidarse del mundo. Lo que mejoraría en ciertas habitaciones es la iluminación. Las suites no lo necesitan. Pero el resto, las ventanas son con sistema de contraventana de madera, sin cristales, y no se abren del todo. Muy bonitas, pero no entra mucha luz y sí los mosquitos. Además, como pasa en muchos hoteles, la iluminación del espejo en el cuarto de baño no está pensado para las mujeres. No se ve nada. Imposible maquillarse.

This hotel gives you the feeling of being in an hotel but still feel at home This place looks like heaven The food that Alfonso makes is so fresh and special Never had such as amazing experience in an hotel Couldn’t be more satisfied then I’m

The perfect quiet place to relax; gorgeous beach, very friendly and supportive staff. Excellent Food quality and variety.

We had a great 3 night stay at was formerly known as Amalys and now known as Samora. The name changed occured between the time we booked and arrival so caused some confusion, taxi drivers still knew the house as Amalys. The property which is really a large home with a main house, open air family room and kitchen and a number of bungalows around the pool was beautiful. It took us a little while to comprehend we really were staying at someone's home and not a traditional hotel or resort. Having said that the staff on site were extremely friendly. The property is stunning and has the potential to be truly top-notch if some small deferred maintenance items in the bungalows are addressed: lights/lamps that don't work or are salt damaged, a confusing number of switches, some that power lights and some that don't, closet safe that doesn't close. I believe we didn't get the full experience because owner Sammy was out of the country. We spoke with him by phone pre/post trip and he seems incredibly friendly and caring about his guests. The trouble is he's the only one on staff that speaks a word of english. Our entire three days we weren't able to properly communicate. Because of this we didn't really have a good handle on what services the property offered, how F&B worked, or even things like how to make dinner reservations in town. I know had Sammy been there it would be have been different. Also be aware they currently only accept paypal and require full payment up front

If you’ve found your way to this property it’s because you’re clearly doing something very right. My wife selected it as the romantic one night anniversary end to a beautiful trip with 30 of our closest friends, but after meeting Sammy and his tremendously loving and caring staff we doubled down and changed our flights to stay another life changing 24 hours! My wife and I have had the great privilege to travel for work and been across Asia, Latin America, Mexico, Ibiza, Tulum etc etc and this truly blew us away. This property is a testament to what patience, a clear vision and a great heart can achieve. From Home Away’s Best Pool of 2016 to the individually appointed bungalows set against a beautiful sound track of waves, you’ll find yourself constantly inspired by the attention to detail taken with every part of the experience provided. Perhaps more than anything though, was the feeling we got from spending time with Sammy and this other delightful couple who were vacationing from London with their baby. Somora wrapped us in a warm blanket of relaxation that was so conducive to sharing inspirational stories about what had all brought us together that we are already planning to come back. I could go on, but until you’ve been here you’ll think I’m just a rambling mess! 10/10 5 Stars
