Best Resorts in Islita

"Nice place close to a couple of beaches, responsive front desk, very slow restaurant service "

"We booked a large room at this property so our grandchildren that live in Samara could come visit us there. When we were told no visitors are allowed, we asked for a refund. They refused, So we only stayed for 1/2 our reservation time (10 days). Food was substandard and room was filthy. Ants were everywhere (kitchen, bathroom vanity, etc) due to the large gaps aroboth door jams. We reserved a king—they gave us queen and promised to remedy it—they didn’t. A/C barely kept one room cool (it was 92 outside) Ask any of the Canadians from Toronto about it, they all agreed with us, especially about the weak buffet. Swim-up bar and pool were great but pool was too hot. Be prepared to walk out to the gate in extreme heat as they won’t let soon to pick you up(!)"

"The room was good and spacious. The swimming pool was very good. Close to the beach, in particular to Playa Carillo. Breakfast is good. Diner is clearly not at the level. frozen food, not typical and the lowest during your stay in costa rica"

"Excelente ubicacion Parqueo seguro Lugar muy hermoso"

"Every staff member was attentive and welcoming. Room was large and very comfortable. All dining experiences were delicious with many options. Extremely positive experience for first vacation in 20 years!"

"Amazing property, very chill and relaxing. Short walk to the beach!"

"Pool was great and we loved the view. Easy drive into Islita and down to Playa Islita.If you go, also worth the 20min drive to Mar yTierra (BBQ spot that was the best meal we had during our stay in Costa Rica). "

"The staff was exceptional. The location and setting was exceptional. But some things were substandard. Breakfast was boring and same every day. Eg no croissants or breakfast pastries, only bread for toast. No cheese or cold meat or fish selection. No variety of fruits. Rooms were spacious but… no closet, no hangers. No place to hang clothes, no place to hang wet towels and bathing suits. Huge balcony with a tiny two-seater couch with no cushions. No cushions on the indoor couch either. A little attention to deal would go a long way - no tea bags in room. No wine glasses. "

"We arrived hours earlier than check-in and were able to get our room pretty quickly. The front desk staff were very helpful and kind. The room was spacious and clean and we really appreciated the pool on those hot days. Samara is quite small, so we were able to walk to everything."
