Splurge and get a beach-front room if you can. You won't regret it. We stayed here for 3 nights while visiting Isabela. The accomodations are clean and comfortable, and the staff is amazing. Daniel spent a couple of hours with me (including taking me to a travel agency in town) making arrangements for our return trip to Santa Cruz, after the smaller boat we arrived on resulted in queasy stomachs for most of our family. He got us reserved seats up top with the captain on a larger boat for the same price as the seasickness -inducing boat. When stopping by our room to confirm our early-morning ride to the dock, Maria noticed us trying to remove a thorn from my son's foot, offered to help, and, after 10 minutes, successfully removed the thorn. And Jimmy picked us up at 5:10 a.m. and drove us to the dock for our early morning departure. If we ever make it back to Isabela, we would definitely stay at Isamar Hotel again.
