General Facility Description
Set on a high bluff between two mountain ridges that meet the sea, the remote Punta Islita Hotel is the perfect destination for anyone who desires luxury, tranquility and spectacular scenery.
The hotel is embedded in a tropical dry forest tract of Costa Rica's Guanacaste province. Trimmed by rugged mountains, tiny villages, and the Pacific coastline, it features spectacular ocean views and beaches, charming luxury, exciting activities and a genuine commitment to responsible tourism. A romantic vacation place for lovers, and honeymooners. You will arrive and depart from Punta Islita Airport.
Hotel Punta Islita greets you with authentic Costa Rican charm, and aesthetics. Rustic-colonial elegance, a spectacular natural setting, and incomparable service details cater to a select clientele of travel enthusiasts. The charming colonial decor, complete with thatched palm and tile roofs, gives a Costa Rican touch to this exclusive boutique hotel. The use of earth tones, bare wood, palm fronds, and antiques makes this resort particularly enticing for the romantic hideaway of your life.
Embark on a culinary journey at Punta Islita?s magnificent 1492 Restaurant, so named in reference to the year Christopher Columbus arrived in the Americas. The fifty-foot thatched palm ceiling is perhaps Hotel Punta Islita?s most distinguishable landmark and pays tribute to the architectural style of the Chorotegas, the area?s once predominant native culture.
Should you prefer an al fresco experience, opt for the ocean-front facilities for the ultimate natural ambiance at the CASA SPA. From heated river stone massages to full manicures and pedicures, Casa Spa will complement the perfect tropical vacation.
Please note that the hotel will be completing room upgrades between July and November 2007. They are carefully arranging the schedule to avoid inconveniencing to guests. Work is programmed for some Deluxe Rooms, Casitas, and Suites. We thank you for your understanding.
