This is a more upscale resort than I expected. Almost 2 walls of glass to capture the view from our room. Neat pool tucked in one level below the open air dining. Free computer in lobby/dining area. One of our rooms had a balcony, one just had the glass wall. Both fabulous. Could hear howler monkeys in the distance from... more

This resort offered us a delightful four days, with friendly service and excellent food. The view from the open restaurant all but transfixes the observer. It is almost too beautiful to believe. It is important to remember that Costa Rica isn't the USA. One night the ceiling dripped (air conditioning problem), right over the bed. It was fixed within an... more

I expected a lot from this hotel as it was where we splurged the most on per night costs. Issimo did not disappoint! Our room was exactly as pictured from their website and other traveler’s blogs and message board reviews. This small, boutique type hotel is situated high up on a mountain over looking the Pacific Ocean with breathless views.... more

We had been a bit nervous because of some of the critiques of management on Trip Advisor, but found all the staff at Issimo to be exceptional. We... more

My wife and I went on our honeymoon and stayed here toward the end of our trip. We had an amazing experience! The hotel is exactly as described on the website, and the views were amazing. The hotel room is definitely set up for couples and may not be the best setup for a family (the shower is in the... more

There are a million hotels in the Manuel Antonio area, but very few if any compare to Issimo Suites. The accommodations were extraordinarily clean, and more than suitable for modern life. After many daily activities, it was very comforting and relaxing to return to our room to take advantage of all of its amenities - WiFi, oversized Jacuzzi and a... more

My husband and I just returned from a wonderful trip to Costa Rica. By far the highlight of our trip was our stay at Issimo Suites. We had spent the first few days exploring the areas near San Jose (Poas Vocano and the Pacuare River) and were excited to head south along the pacific coast-line towards what we had heard... more
