Hotels in Islita

"Great location at Samara. We had booked a room with balcony looking out to the street not realizing it’s a busy street. We got upgraded to a bigger room with pool view without any request. We appreciated that very much as e were tired that day. The ac in the room worked excellent, the room and bathroom were clean and comfortable. Parking is across the street. We only stayed one night so did not get the a chance to try the restaurant, which looked great but can’t actually rate as we decided to try another restaurant in the town. "

"Everything was amazing."

"The room was spacious and comfortable. We liked the bathroom and the balcony, too. The views from our balcony and even more from the restaurant are spectacular. The greatest negative is access: there is really no good way to get there without traversing some really terrible roads, and when the road improves you have to turn off onto an access road that is around 1.5 km long and as badly rutted as any of them. Fortunately, the restaurant is rather good, because there is no way we would have ventured on that road after dark. "

"A Soulful Escape at Tierra Magnifica Boutique Hotel Tierra Magnifica is truly a slice of paradise. The natural beauty surrounding the property is breathtaking — from the lush jungle views to the serene ocean backdrop, every moment felt like a dream. What really sets this place apart is the exceptional staff. Every team member we met was kind, thoughtful, and went out of their way to make us feel at home. Their genuine warmth and attention to detail elevated our entire experience. The food was phenomenal — fresh, creative, and full of flavor. Each meal felt like it was prepared with care and intention, and dining with a view made it even more memorable. Tierra Magnifica isn’t just a hotel — it’s a feeling. Peaceful, grounding, and inspiring. We’re so grateful for our stay and can’t wait to return. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a luxurious, heart-centered escape! "

"Absolutely loved this resort! It’s beautiful! Swim out room was worth the extra cost! We rented a car a drive there, took a while to get there, and the road is a bit sketchy to drive at night, but it was cheaper that scheduling a ride. Takes about 2-3 hours from Liberia depending on traffic. We will be back though. It was so relaxing and the cocktails were delicious! Just go!"

"The property is a short walk from the stunning beach, some of our favorite restaurants. This is a very new and exceptionally well-designed hotel. The rooms are fantastic, everything is brand new and visually pleasing. The pool area and cabanas are wonderful too. Staff is very friendly and supportive. They have a great consierge who booked a lot of activities for us - zip lining, ATV tour, surfing. Room maintenance and cleaning is superb. We were supposed to stay for a week and ended up staying for two."

"awesome safe property hot tub was cold"

"Gorgeous, isolated place with friendly staff and easy access to beautiful beaches. Prepare yourself for the drive in, which is on a dirt road with lots of holes. If you rent a car, get the insurance. Lots of restaurants nearby you can drive to or catch one of their mini-taxis. The free breakfast is delicious, and the views are awesome. The hotel design and architecture are definitely very different and fun. "

"The concierge was so helpful, recommending restaurants and activities. He notified us of a scheduled area wide power outage and took care of making reservations for an ATV tour during the outage. The restaurant was fantastic, with large plates of fresh food and friendly service. Housekeeping kept the room clean and comfortable. "
