Punta Islita Hotel

This perfect travel escape offers guests the opportunity to relax in luxury by the swim up bar, read in the gardens or simply sway in one of the inviting hammocks. If action and fitness are calling you into motion, head to the air conditioned gym or grab a racket and head to the tennis courts. To better acquaint yourself with the wonders of the surrounding area, take a bird watching, hiking or turtle nesting tour or go mountain biking or horseback riding into the mountains.

In addition to the hotel's impressive architecture and style, there are other wonderful features that set it apart. The holistic Spa utilizes the hotel's organic farm for its natural ingredients. The tiered swimming pool and Jacuzzi appears to merge into the ocean waters. There is also a unique palm thatched roof restaurant, named "1492' after the year Christopher Columbus arrived to the Americas, that serves Costa Rican and international dishes using locally grown herbs, spices, and vegetables.
