My husband and I toured Costa Rica for our honeymoon in March/April 2011 and this was our last stop. From the second we arrived (after a really long journey) we were made to feel so welcome, the staff are fantastic and nothing is too much trouble. Make sure you get involved in some of the activities...neither of us had been...

My husband and I stayed at Punta Islita on the second leg of our 1st anniversary trip and it's truly an amazing hotel. We stayed in a suite (#23 to be exact) and absolutely loved it. The room was so spacious and you can't beat having your own private patio with a hammock overlooking the most beautiful scenery. We spent...

My wife and I booked the "adventure package" with three nights in "el Silencio" and three nights in "Punta Islita." The price for these six nights was $2400. We were told transfer between the hotels and airport (San Jose) is not included in the price, and would be an additional $800. With these numbers, we were paying ~$500 per night....

After staying at a very nice place in another part of Costa Rica, we were a little weary of how much better our "second hotel" would be. That feeling increased as we deplaned from the airstrip and got in the transportation van next to a field of cows. As we went through winding dirt roads the uneasy feeling did not...

My daughter and I stayed here last month and could not have been happier. The place is so beautiful, the staff friendly and helpful. Marvin was great. Every morning while my daughter slept in I laid in the hammock read and listened to the waves. Just stunning views, and so private. Just wonderful.
The food is delicious, very fresh, and...

Punta Islita is just what we were looking for when our family wanted to visit the Pacific beach area after exploring the volcano and rain forest areas. We didn't want to be in a Four Seasons and feel removed from the true country feeling, yet we enjoy fine amenities and great service. We found this hotel carefully balances top amenities...
