À vivre

Hacienda La Isla is not just a hotel at the foot of Braulio Carrillo National Park — it is also a story, a welcoming place set at the heart of Sarapiquí's adventure sites. The historic garden and orchard invite rest and quiet. The warmly decorated rooms each have a story of their own to tell... Its setting along mountain streams, just 5 minutes from the Rainforest Arenal Tram (the Braulio Carrillo cable car), also makes it an excellent base for your excursions.

Layout

Hacienda La Isla has 14 luxury rooms and a suite.
It also includes an “open” thatched-roof restaurant (without walls), set on the edge of a beautiful lagoon teeming with exotic fish and offering an intimate view of the surrounding rainforest.
The gardens are a natural extension of the surrounding rainforest. Visitors can enjoy a relaxing moment at the swimming pool, which is built with an eco-friendly ionisation system requiring no chlorine or chemicals.
There is a large orchard on the hacienda with a wide selection of tropical fruit trees.

For your children

Children of all ages are welcome at Hacienda la Isla.

Rooms

The rooms feature hacienda-style décor and have a balcony and a terrace. Private bathrooms are fitted with a shower and a hairdryer. A safe is also provided.
