I've stayed at hotel Isabella more than 10 times in 6 years usually for about 10 days. I've gotten to know that mike makes a perfect breakfast and I never can seem to eat lunch after gorging myself on banana pancakes slathered in syrup and guava jam. Angelina will take all my stinky hiking and beach laundry and return it... More

My sister and I stayed here for 3 nights while in SJDS. The location was just a few blocks from main strip which is a good thing because it was a nice & quiet location. The owner, Mike was nice and helpful. The rooms are nice, charming and clean. Also, we met some girls during a power outage and the... More

The beds are comfortable, the breakfasts are delicious, the coffee is always hot, and the location is convenient. Hot water showers and AC are a plus! Sitting on the veranda, watching the world go by is recommended.

We stayed here for the second time and it was nice and clean with a decent location. Plenty of movies to choose from, a small but refreshing swimming pool and a hearty breakfast (great pancakes) There is also airconditioning and hot water for a great value. Will be back!

Stayed there for a couple of days. Decent and clean rooms, very good bathrooms and AC, and good but ordinary breakfast. Owner and extended family are very nice and helpful if you have questions. The hotel has a little swimming pool and common areas to hang out or just to relax in a hammock. This is not a party hotel... More

Walking through the streets of San Juan del Sur can feel like going through one big surfing/NGO frat party. Villa Isabella is a wonderful respite, set back just enough from all the action, by about two to three blocks. The owners, Mike and Jane, were wonderful hosts. Knowing we had a small child, they set us up in Room 7,... More

This was one of several return visits and I again found Villa Isabella to be clean, comfortable, and completely enjoyable. With air conditioning and real two-valve hot water (not to be taken for granted in this region) this was about the first, and remains one of the best choices for US-level comfort and security in the area. Best of all... More
