Isla Chiquita Glamping Hotel, hotel in Puntarenas

Isla Chiquita Glamping Hotel has a restaurant, outdoor plunge pool, a bar and garden in Puntarenas. Boasting family rooms, this property also provides guests with a sun terrace.

We picked this hotel for their sustainable credentials and we could see once there that they tried their best to follow a much more sustainable approach. The location is just unique and the views are stunning. We gad tent 14 and it was everything and more we could ask for. The room was really comfortable and the monkeys, lizards and racoons kept us entertained! I highly recommend the spa. The massage was great with views to go with it.

    Very run down.

    Very run down. We went passed the local prison 2 roads away from place we had originally booked. No trees,no green, just run down building with barb wires and high gates, corrugated iron....not nice, avoid.

    While the hotel and staff were lovely and helpful the common verandah didn't allow for much privacy. The hotel was also at least 5kms from the rest of the town with no shops or restaurants nearby, so a little isolated. But the beach just across the road was a bonus.

    Plenty of restaurants, activities to explore, etc. For me, It totally depends on your hotel. I’ve stayed in Puntarenas many times, but my trip this week to Hotel Puntarenas Beach was, sadly, my worst hotel experience in Puntarenas.

    Nice city, you feel quiet safe, only at the beach and i the city a lot of agressiv beggers and seems like the police dont care, told they are not locals, but from the countries around Costa Rica, for the rest its a great place, easy to drive around in the region and see everything in max 3 hours drive away, locals drive nice, even the trucks.So will go back again

    Puntarenas is only worth the visit if you're gonna take the ferry boat to the islands next to it. The beaches are not great, full of trash, plastic , i guess because of the location and the currents? Not a lot to see or do. Not impressed.

    Friendly town with lots of friendly people.

    Friendly town with lots of friendly people. Great spot to visit the smaller islands and their virgin beaches. Please visit the light house area and Isla Cocos restaurant. The fresh seafood is excellent and the staff wonderful.

    It is a beautiful little hotel, the lounge area is a perfect garden paradise with multiple seating areas and a bar. The people there are so nice and accommodating. The owner really cares and it shows... everyone there really loves it there. They even maintain the beach across the street and keep it clean and free of debris. They utilize solar panels for electric. They serve delicious meals at the restaurant, beautifully prepared, and complimentary full breakfast. It is only an hour and a half away from the airport.

    The bed and bathroom were super clean overall. The staffs were friendly and would always check on us. I enjoyed the outdoor pool in the center of the hotel. Pinto was served for breakfast and it was good! I was worried about WIFI because there were no reviews left about this, but Wifi connection was stable and strong (except for 10-15 minutes when there was a power outage). Also, the bus terminal is within walking distance!

    Fair amenities for the price paid. Room and bathroom were very clean and the bed pretty comfortable. The hotel is at the back of the restaurant and while there was music during the day, it was very quiet in the evening and night. Staff were kind. Would definitely recommend if you're passing by Puntarenas for one night.

    THIS IS ACTUALLY A REVIEW FOR PUNTARENAS BACKPACKERS, they moved me because there was no wifi in my room when i specifically asked for it. The room before i moved though was pretty dismal, musty and not really a hotel, just some rooms around some plants and some hammocks. Bed was comfy Good wifi Close to beach

    Location was great! My room had a huge balcony with the beach and ocean right in front of me. Plus, perfect for people watching. Restaurant/bar with great drinks and great food. Included breakfast also very good. Small pool area was very relaxing, quiet. VERY clean hotel. Staff very polite, friendly too!

    Excellent find if you ever need to stay in Punteranas! Wonderful hosts made our group feel welcome and comfortable from start to finish of our stay. In front of the hotel is the cleanest section of the beach you'll find anywhere in the area. Would highly recommend.

    The hotel is built like and old school US motel. The rooms are grouped around a pool. It’s pretty new and in really good conditions, very clean. The pool is beautiful and everything is kept nice and neat. Breakfast gets made to order, fresh.

    Excellent location if - like us - you want to take the morning ferry over to the Nicoya Peninsula. Plenty of good restaurants all within walking distance and even pelicans roosting in the hotel grounds.

    The only reason we stayed here is because we planned a trip to Playa Tortugas, so location was a plus. We were not big fans of the town. Hotel was just ok. Staff was friendly.
