    lush gardens
    noisy street

    Relaxing getaway with friendly staff

    The gardens surrounding the pools were lush and inviting, making it easy to relax in the sun. I appreciated the attentive service throughout my stay.

    Unfortunately, the noise from the street could be bothersome at times, especially at night when trying to sleep. A room in the back may be a better choice.

    beautiful landscaping
    great breakfast
    clean room
    road noise

    Stayed in the Double Room with Pool View for 3 nights. The room was bright, clean, and had a lovely small refrigerator. The pool area was stunning with lush landscaping, and the two pools offered serene spots to relax. I loved having breakfast each morning, especially enjoying the freshly baked breads. A major plus was the location. just a short walk to the beach and near local shops. However, the noise from the main road was sometimes disruptive, especially at night. It would have been nice if the maid service had left the A/C on while I was out. it was a bit uncomfortable returning to a warm room. Staff were helpful, but a little more variety in breakfast options would be great.

    family-friendly pools
    beautiful landscaping
    limited activities for kids

    We loved our stay at this cozy spot! The pools were perfect for the kids, and we enjoyed relaxing in the beautiful landscaped areas. The location was fantastic, just a stroll away from the gorgeous beach, which was perfect for a family day out.

    My kids wished for more activities for them.

    clean pools
    helpful staff
    noise from main road

    The pools were superb, and it was a short walk to the stunning beach. We explored Playa Carrillo Beach and enjoyed the laid-back vibe while practicing water sports. The breakfast options were solid, and the staff was super friendly and helpful during our stay.

    The only downside was the noise from the main road, especially at night, which could keep you awake.

    Decent Stay with Some Drawbacks

    Had an interesting time here with my family. The room was cozy but really tight with an added cot. The location was convenient, close to shops and restaurants, though a bit further from the beach. Make sure to check breakfast options—worth the extra cost!

    charming hotel
    beautiful landscaping
    warm pool area
    basic room

    Giada is a charming hotel with beautiful landscaping and a warm, clean pool area that invites relaxation. The proximity to the beach is a significant advantage, making it easy to enjoy the local amenities. Notably, the staff, including the friendly receptionist, provided excellent dining recommendations that enhanced our experience. The restaurants nearby offered delicious evening meals, particularly the shrimp penne pasta, which was a highlight of our stay.

    The room we initially received was basic and a bit noisy.

    clean room
    delicious breakfast
    street noise
    mattress quality
    lack of blankets

    The room was bright and clean, featuring a nice terrace that provided a pleasant outdoor space. Breakfast included delicious options, and the unexpected baking facility served some of the finest bread we've ever had. However, noise from the street was sometimes disruptive, and the mattress quality left much to be desired, resembling typical budget accommodations. Additionally, a lack of thicker bedding may require guests to request extra sheets rather than blankets.

    clean pools
    comfy bed
    tasty breakfast
    inconsistent wifi

    Stayed at giada for 3 nights and it was better than my last visit to samara. Breakfast was tasty, especially the fresh watermelon juice.

    wifi was inconsistent and dropped frequently.
