The layout and pool were lovely. The staff, depart our lack of Spanish, were super helpful and friendly. It is a short walk to town, and if you want to go to the marina for dinner you can arrange an Uber.
This charming beachfront hotel is located on Playa Potrero on the scenic Pacific Coast. It offers a spa with massage and beauty treatments and an indoor and outdoor pool with hot tub.

Really pleasant stay, gorgeous location on the beach to enjoy beautiful sunsets, reception staff charming and swim up bar staff great. A few of the breakfast team sometimes looked as though they'd rather be elsewhere and a few bits of maintenance could be improved (planters half way up stairs untended, a bit of flaky paint) but generally a very nice option for a decent price

They've done a wonderful job with this property! This was our 8th accommodation on this trip to Costa Rica, and it had the best of all worlds. Quiet enough to feel remote, but connected to groceries, gas, and services in town. Fantastic A/C in the common space and both bedrooms. A thorough cleaning job, enough towels for a family of 4 (including pool towels), and a very well-equipped kitchen. The owners were so kind to accommodate early check-in so that our young daughters could get settled; they even brought them a high chair and kids' chairs, which they adored! The view from the pool is gorgeous and we appreciated the little outdoor gym, too. We watched the cleaning team wipe down outdoor railings and dust off loungers. They're clearly taking pride in keeping this place up. We would definitely stay again!

Relaxing small beach community with a residential vibe.
Relaxing small beach community with a residential vibe. I prefer Portreo as a base - more than Tamarindo. Amazing local food options, fresh 🍉 produce at the market. The Esmeralda Villas are a place where you can read, unwind and enjoy lush gardens in peace. Then we took day trips to sail, surf, zip line etc. great place if you’re not interested in night clubs. Serene, healthy nature in a small town.

Playa Potrero is the 'middle' beach between 5 local beaches...
Playa Potrero is the 'middle' beach between 5 local beaches in a row and only a few minutes of each other. Each beach is different and has different amenities available. I recommend Playa Penga for those who want a beautiful beach with few people. Playa Danta is also great but a few minutes farther away, also with few people. Potrero has nearby resorts and several nice restaurants, depending on your tastes and budget. Highly recommend the area around Potrero as you can choose the beach that suits you best!

Potrero is a gem of a small beach town.
Potrero is a gem of a small beach town. Locals are friendly, helpful and genuinely welcoming. El Castillo has amazing food and staff. Hemingway’s is a wonderful spot to watch the pelicans and sunset. The staff there is amazing as well. I will be back!

Small town feel but with everything you need within walking...
Small town feel but with everything you need within walking distance: restaurants (great food) pharmacy; bakery; grocery; liquor store; beach activity rentals; long beach for walking and couple restaurants along beach. Not touristy - felt immersed in local community. Short drive to many other beaches and restaurants and adventure activities. It’s a perfect home base.

One of my favorite places to visit in Costa Rica.
One of my favorite places to visit in Costa Rica. I'd recommend a hotel on the outskirts of the village, but transportation is a bit of an issue. Loads of construction currently taking place. I hope it doesn't destroy the laid back authenticity of the countryside/
Small quaint brand new boutique hotel. We had a wonderful experience all around. Beautiful grounds. Rooms were tastefully done. Beds comfortable
DJ the owner was friendly and was very attentive as were all the staff.
There is a restaurant with full bar on site that makes great brick oven pizza and other local fare . It gets lively at night which is fun.. The staff are great there too.
The town authentic Costa Rica. Not overrun by tourists in any sense. We felt very safe at night while walking to the area bars, restaurants and beach.
The tropical grounds made it a pretty setting. Each unit surround the pool, all single level. Jose was friendly, as were the house keepers. You can have house keeping each day if you chose at no extra cost. There is a full size refrigerator and plenty of kitchenware. Great location- two blocks to Playa Potrero; an easy walk passing two stores along the way. Less than a mile from the town which you can reach by beach. Air conditioning in the bedroom. Towels and shampoo furnished. Pool was cleaned each morning. Quiet and relaxing.
The hotel is located right on the beach. There is a poolside swim up bar and regular bar, hot tub, restaurant, nice size clean rooms, and 24 hour security at the entrance for your vehicles. The staff is friendly and eager to practice their English with guests. Bonus: they have a wonderful yoga instructor who comes several times a week and even Zumba!
Met and exceeded expectation in almost every aspect. Picture perfect hotel grounds and impressive gardens.
Property is beautiful, the room was very big (deluxe superior), and the staff always very friendly. Exceptional location right on the beach.
Playa Potrero is a great but slightly sleepy town. A perfect place to unwind for a few days.
Great ocean views. Quiet and relaxing location. Good access to beaches, restaurants, grocery stores etc.. Very comfortable house. Great pool. Excellent on-site service from the property management.
Very calm, well maintained, very good hotel manager. It was perfect for our needs. The apartment was a good size and right in front of the pool. The lush plants gave an extra sense of privacy.
Location is great, close to all big beach area around and still far away enough to have some quiet time when you're in the property, views are incredible. Very friendly and informative hosts
The condo is pretty nice in a very good location, surrounded by nature, a big pool for afternoon. Near Playa Penca 400m, walking distance to Playa Potrero. By car to Playa Danta and Dantita.
We loved our stay at a Hotel Isolina Beach! The location was incredible; just a two minute walk away from the most beautiful beach. The grounds were quiet, and the staff were very helpful.
the most beautiful hotel in Costa Rica. Finished with attention to detail. owners very nice. Romantic atmosphere, great swimming pool, well-equipped houses, simply beautiful!
Daniel and Charlotte are amazing hosts, we felt like visiting friends. The place is impeccable and beautiful. Definitively we will stay here next time we visit Guanacaste.
Calm place, very practical location and close to nice beaches (Dantas, Prieta). Super cool to have AC in both rooms and the kitchen. Good restaurants nearby.
