About Isla Chiquita Glamping Hotel
Welcome to Isla Chiquita Glamping Hotel!
There are many reasons to travel to Costa Rica, but now you have another reason…to enjoy a unique Glamping Experience on Isla Chiquita…
Rejuvenate your mind, body and spirit as you forge a meaningful connection to nature at Isla Chiquita Glamping Hotel. Perched on the tiny island of Isla Jesusita in Costa Rica’s picturesque Gulf of Nicoya (in the province of Puntarenas), this hotel is the first and only destination of its kind in the country.
Celebrate the island’s artisanal fishing heritage with a delicious seafood meal at Donde Tía Nora Restaurant, or sip a drink at Harry’s Bar & Restaurant as you survey the beauty that envelops you. Embark on an adventure by land or sea; bioluminescence expeditions, birdwatching, forest bathing hikes, snorkeling excursions, kayaking and island hopping are among the engaging experiences the hotel offers. Upon returning to the hotel, relax in their tropical lounging gardens or soothe tired muscles with a massage on their wellness deck.
How do you get to Isla Chiquita? You can arrive directly by boat or yacht from any marina along Costa Rica’s Pacific coast. If you drive from San José, you must head to Puntarenas to board a ferry to Paquera. If you drive from Liberia, you can head straight to Paquera. They provide a complimentary water taxi service between Paquera and Isla Chiquita. Helicopter arrivals are also possible! Click on the map below for a better view of the area.
