Punta Islita, Autograph Collection

We spent 10 days here in October 2019 and really enjoyed our stay. We traveled with our 3 children (8,5,1.5 years) and stayed in a lovely Casita ("Cedros"). Our unit came with a golf cart which my kids LOVED. It was great for getting around the resort and to Coco's Beach Club because it was definitely too far to walk with kids. The included activities were great for ages 5+: my kids ziplined 4x (on site at resort) and also rode horses on the beach. Louis and Ronald were both knowledgeable and personable and my kids loved getting to see them multiple times for different activities during our stay. Since we went during the rainy season, the resort was very uncrowded which meant we could easily get into all activities we wanted. Louis took us to see turtles laying eggs at night which we also really enjoyed (add on activity). The resort itself is very beautiful and well maintained. Our 3 bed unit was spacious and clean and had a lovely pool. The animals and vegetation all around are stunning - Macaws, howler monkeys, iguanas, deer, coatis and all sorts of tropical plants. The beach here is rocky but very uncrowded and naturally beautiful with waterfalls and lots to explore. The location is quite remote with a small grocery in town. We rented a car part way through so we could go explore Samara and another nearby beach to see hatching turtles. All in all, we really enjoyed our time at Punta Islita. I would highly recommend it to others looking for a family friendly resort.
