Above the home, an expansive elevated deck captures breathtaking ocean views and provides a spectacular setting to enjoy morning coffee, afternoon breezes, or unforgettable Pacific sunsets. Sámara Rocks offers the rare opportunity to enjoy tranquility and privacy within a secure gated community while remaining close to everything that makes Sámara special. The town’s beautiful beach, restaurants, cafés, shops, and everyday conveniences are all just minutes away.
