The AZ Sámara Language School is located
in Playa Sámara, 100 meters from the Beach. In the
tropical gardens, classes are held in open-sided, palm-thatched
"ranchos" which are breezy and cool, providing an
ideal spot for learning Spanish at the beach.
Each classroom is equipped
with standard audio equipment, whiteboard, and a large communal
study space encouraging didactic activities and easy participation.
There are also a number of air-conditioned rooms available
for classes and audio-visual exercises. The large swimming
pool provides an ideal respite from mid-day heat or for a
quick swim during your break. Occasionally, teachers take
students outside the facilities to hold a conversation hour
on the beach under the shade of a palm tree, or on an ecological
trip such as dolphin watching, in order to practice Spanish
"en vivo" with local Costa Ricans.
Facilities include a large
open-air stage used for dance classes and film nights; a kitchen
for cooking classes, and several lounge and study areas, hammocks,
and the tour services area. The adjacent restaurant and tables
provide ample places to relax and chat with friends, drink
coffee or try the delicious fresh fruit shakes.
