The place is fine It allows you to have privacy and relatively easy access to the beach. I don't recommend it for adults. The house has everything you need, and is very comfortable.

Stephen was an excellent host! I would recommend going to Supermercado El Rey in Sabanitas if you need groceries. They have everything you would want from a supermarket. We parked in a safe fenced parking area (Dona Eme - you have to pay cash) recommended by Stephen. We boated across (you have to pay cash) and met Chilo his assistant on Isla Grande. Chilo speaks Spanish and he is very kind and helpful getting our luggage up the slight incline. The casita was just as described! Everything we needed! Beaches were just as beautiful as I had remembered! There is a little beach right near the base of the trail to the house with a place to snorkel and swim. Everyone on the island was very friendly. 90% of the places you can pay with debit/credit cards. We had no issues with the water on the island. All of the plugs were regular American plugs and no adaptors were needed. If you go to Cocotal say hello to Demi the Chef and Coco the dog! Chef Demi made the best food!

Casita Isabella is a lovely private location with a great patio with hammocks for a very relaxing stay. Comfortable interior with fans and air conditioners. Highly recommend it you’re looking for a peaceful place to stay.

The house is perfectly located slightly far from the front line which is perfect if you are looking for a quite place (as us this time). It also have a nice ambiance and rough style that I liked. The reason why I am not giving a solid 5 is because 1) I believe it lacks of preventive maintenance that is getting things rusty. However everything works perfectly: stove, coffee machine, water, gas, others. 2) The hill is not made for everybody. If I would have brought my 70 year old mother it would have been painful for her. If you’re not in good shape don’t pick this house. Communication and location is a solid 5.

The caretaker's attention was good; he welcomed us and helped. The house is special for those of us who like nature. Cleanliness was good. The kitchen is equipped and clean. The pathway is illuminated.

It is a very simple house, like most of the area. Access to it is uphill by an impromptu trail. You have to be prepared because it is the rainy season it can be quite complicated. The gas pressure or oven is not good, so I recommend planning a trip where you eat outside the house (there are several restaurants on the island). The landlord is very attentive and always available. Regards!
