 Punta Islita Hotel, San José
        
Perched over a secluded beach in a corner of Guanacaste, Punta Islita is the perfect destination for anyone who desires luxury, tranquility and spectacular scenery. 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.

All rooms are built upon a gentle knoll nestled up against the mountains, with a stunning view of the Pacific Ocean. In the main building you will find a cascade style swimming pool with Jacuzzi, that appears to flow into the ocean beyond, a swim-up bar, restaurant and boutique.

If it is exquisite dining you crave, discover Punta Islita's renowned cuisine and friendly down to earth service. Their majestic "1492" restaurant offers a wide variety of delicious fresh sea-food, French and International cuisine, as well as native Costa Rican dishes.
