Villas en Islita

"We LOVED staying here. It was a nice reprieve from the town centre and offered a completely different view being up so high. We did book it because it was walking distance to the beach, but I wouldn't really say it is as it's a pretty dusty dirt road a long way down, so the way back up would be pretty intense."

"The property is just as pictured in the listing and is beautiful. Communicating with the property manager was a bit of a challenge. They list a phone number but if you don't have a working cell phone when you land, the number is useless. They suggest communicating by WhatsApp and that is fine, as long as you have the internet, which you will not have in your vehicle. So, coordinating with the manager on arrival was a bit of a problem while in transit. The road to the property needs grading as it...

"Javier is an excellent host. Communicates well and is very responsive. Condo is a 13-minute walk from Playa Pelada and the beachside Olga’s Restaurant is highly recommended. Modern bathrooms and kitchen with plenty of water pressure. Air conditioning in bedrooms works well. Comfortable beds. Pool is a small plunge pool, handy for cooling off. Safe area with outside locked gate and codes for entry both to locked gate and condo. Recommend a 4WD or ATV to get around as some roads are steep,...

"Stayed here for guys surf trip. Great layout for 3-4 individuals with own private sleep areas and common rooms. Plunge pool was great for quick cool down and hang out area. 5 min walk to Bodhi Tree yoga resort which had classes every hour plus great breakfasts. 10-15 min walk to town or can call tuk-tuk. House is on quieter side of town and 5 min walk to the beach. Ryan was great help with dinner and surf reservations and wealth of knowledge about the area. Would definately stay here again."

"Muy sereno ideal para descansar. Lo malo fue que mi reserva no la tenían preparada"

"Beautiful property! I hope I can come back again next year. Location was roomy, quiet and safe. We walked to the beach every morning for a swim and then Bohdi for yoga. House was so clean and comfortable. Lots of towels and linens for swimming and pool lounging. Concierge was so so helpful with bookings and questions. Highlights were the snorkeling trip and Coffee farm experience with Kenneth. One of our best finds ever! Enjoy"

"La casa es preciosa, la vista increíble, muy bien cuidada y la atención inigualable! Cien por ciento recomendada."

"Una gran opción para disfrutar"

"Excelent place and host ! Full recommended"

"La casa cuenta con una sala muy amplia y tiene toda las comodidades para pasar días en familia Todo esta nuevo y es tal cual lo vemos en las fotos Sin duda volveriamos "

"We gather mainly to celebrate Mother's Day with my parents, my sister's family and my family. A group of 9 adults, a 6-year-old girl, a 10-month-old baby, and three small dogs. We were all fascinated by the wonderful place, full of documented history, which helped us to understand the place and enjoy it even more, knowing the effort of Dr. Davis G. Durham and his wife, may they rest in peace, to create such a place complete in all its aspects. Reading his story filled us with a lot of nostalgia,...

"La casa es mucho mejor de lo que se aprecia en las fotos, está completamente equipada con todo lo necesario, la limpieza es impecable y la atención al cliente también! Nos brindaron una excelente experiencia"

"We had a wonderful 6 night stay in mid-February and it was ideal for our family get-away (adult kids and partners). The house is wonderful, well maintained, and plenty of room for everyone. Besides the amazing views of Samara beach and the daily flyby of the macaws, parrots and other birds, we had regular visits from the iguanas, and howler monkeys. The location is quite quiet and a bit of an oasis to unwind after exploring the various beaches around Samara. The pool was outstanding, used a lot...

"Very nice property offering a great view of the ocean and the forest. The neighborhood is quiet. Elieth and Geraldo are very nice and and helpful. We had delicious breakfast prepared by Elieth every morning."

"So, I want to be careful when writing this review. I’m not going to slam this place and say it’s total junk. It’s not. It is also not for anyone fancy, or anyone looking to enjoy a place near Sámara, and treat it as a home base. We stayed one night, and that was it. Carlos is a wonderful man who seems to be the manager. Very sweet, and you can tell he maintains the grounds and pool. The exterior of the cabanas are lovely, the pool is lovely, as are the flowers and such. I saw the reviews before...

"We stayed for 1 week with 9 of us sharing 6 bedrooms. The villa was clean and tidy and everything functioned well. Perched on the top of a cliff, the villa had great vies, though you could not swim in the sea below, due to the cliffs. Alexandra, our host for the week, prepared an excellent breakfast each day and then left us to our own devices. The rooms were cleaned as required and we used the in house chef one evening. His food was very good and reasonably priced. The local area has excellent...

"When we arrived (at night), we were expecting that imprtant info would benon display( ex: wifi password- how to turn on ac- is the water from the tap filtered..) nothing was there. Most of the info was sent by email, but without being connected to the wifi, we couldn't access the info. The property manager came shortly after and helped us out. Also, in the package, it said to make sure to close all bedroom doors to keep the AC working. Because the main area has no AC, we were SO hot! We had to...

"Hermosa vista, buen equipamiento y localización cercana a varias playas. Solo recomendaría mejorar los artículos de baño (jabón, shampoo)"

"We really enjoyed our stay. The home was clean. The beds were comfortable. Everything was as pictured on the listing. The only reason I did not give 5 stars from top to bottom was because the Air Conditioning in the living room was only available with an additional charge. That may have been listed on the description but It is an appliance that seems like a necessity if you are going to fully enjoy your stay. Other than that Kattia, the property manager was incredible. The home was beautiful and...

"Una gran opción para disfrutar"

"Plenty of room for 8 adults and 3 young children. It is an easy walk to the beach from the property. I would recommend renting a golf cart or car to get to town and neighboring Carrillo beach. The pool and outdoor space were very nice. The house is stocked with plenty of supplies for cooking. Cleaning staff came twice during our stay and did a great job. Great stay overall."

"We visited 3 VRBOs while in Costa Rica. This was the best of the 3. Very nice accomodation; quiet, private, well appointed. Samara is a relaxing, easy going town with a fantastic beach and easy drive from Liberia. Alex and Carol were very helpful in preparing us for our trip (first time in Costa Rica), Leonie, the property manager, took care of any concerns immediatly. Wish we would have stayed longer."
