Incredible location and very friendly staff. The beautiful views of the ocean, and monkeys, toucans, and even more wildlife are visible throughout the property!

I was a bit disappointed in the view from my room, I probably had the worst in the resort. Still had a good view just took a little bit of effort to see it. I wish there was easier access to the beach.

Staff were excellent went above and beyond to make my visit special. Breakfast was excellent! I loved the location away from all of the masses of tourists in other parts of the area. Very nice group of fellow visitors, without young children screaming in the background.

It was small and exclusive, the food was wonderful. The staff couldn’t do enough for us

The property was amazing. But if you have a hard time w stair you may want to let them know. Also we had the Honeymoon suite which was lovely - but not for older ppl who can't navigate stairs and sudden steps. But the staff, food and views were impressive. Especially if you want to see Monkeys, Toucans and other rain forest wildlife etc

Incredible views from our well appointed Room 101. One of the finest views we have experienced from a hotel room. Food was first class and staff so very friendly.

It was a bit tired looking particularly the room

The views from room and pool area were stunning. Breakfast was very good. Happy hour was very good value

I would have liked to have been a bit closer (walk) to the town . We had a car so it was fine but it would have been nice to be walking distance .

The view was incredible . We were above the forest canopy so saw birds that can be difficult to spot like Toucans and Scarlett Mccaws regularily.

Dining and drinking were a little expensive for what they were

Beautiful location, great deck with pool, lovely views. We told them we had just got engaged and they went all out to make it a very special experience.

Even though the room is spacious, the objects are not positioned in an efficient way: a lot of tables are full of objects that we couldn't put our own stuff; there isn't a place to sit and use computer. Also, throughout our trip in Costa Rica, this is the only hotel where we were bitten by mosquitoes quite a lot. The pest prevention can be done better.

Overall the hotel is still a good luxury hotel for us to stay. The view is great in the morning, and the decoration is special. The staffs were friendly, and guided us to park the vehicles and helped us carry the luggage. The breakfast was quick and good.

The weather was terrible, but again, nothing the hotel could do abt, we made the best out of it.

The view was spectacular, room was huge, breakfast was also nice, but nothing special. Everything remains overpriced in Costa Rica, but nothing that the hotel can do abt.

Nothing!

The VIEW!!! from every corner, from entering the grounds, to the restaurant and the pool. Spectacular!! The room was huge!! and we had a large balcony too, where we had tropical scenery as well as ocean view. It was the perfect place to unwind in the evenings. We saw birds, heard monkeys (though we didn't see them) but we did see a big iguana on the tree one day. The restaurant was excellent!! breakfast was delicious with a nice selection (made to order) and we chose to dine there every night because the food was so good! The stuff Was awesome, friendly, smiling and attentive. Out of the 4 places we stayed in Costa Rica this was by far our favorite!!

It’s a little difficult the access to the beach, but it’s closer to the hotel

The location, the bedroom, the view, the staff team

Both beaches nearby are indeed a hike to access. And the bathroom wasn't the most private (just some doors but not separated by a wall).

The room was huge and clean. Great views of the canopy and the sea from both the room and the restaurant. We saw a lot of wildlife and the staff even lent us binoculars for the duration of our stay to help us see everything better. The food for breakfast was delicious and changed everyday with excellent service. I highly recommend this place and would come back anytime.

We loved our stay at Issimo. Everything was beyond exceptional. The staff went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. We are definitely coming back!

Stayed in June 2024

We chose to walk to restaurants and beaches, the road was sometimes a challenge .

All the staff were friendly and helpful. The property was clean, well kept. The birding and other wildlife at Issimo was great. The food was excellent.

Amazing views of the ocean. Most days had private breakfast with my wife overlooking the ocean with macaws, toucans, and monkeys in view. The staff were warm and welcoming. Great honeymoon destination.

It was like something out of the movies! The location was beautiful with breathtaking views. The room was very clean and also had incredible views. It was the perfect getaway for our honeymoon. It was also great that it was so close to quepos as we were able to do some offshore fishing. The wildlife in the mornings was fun to watch. The staff were all very friendly. Would highly recommend this location and can't wait to go back!

It’s a bit of a hike down to the beach and not a super walkable area.

The views are amazing! Private little beach down the mountain felt secluded. The breakfast was wonderful. Large rooms with tubs!!
