This is Jean Claude Bessudo’s best work and project to date. Aviatur built an oasis in nature WITHOUT disturbing it. Nature is the star of this resort - as it should be. The staff is super attentive and the facilities are well maintained. The food options are plentiful and delicious. The National Aviary of Colombia is close by and is not to be missed. I am of Colombian descent and will return. It’s just beautiful.

Bucket list location with its treetop villas. Great escape from the day to day, with wonderful staff and a captivating atmosphere at night for dinner. Plus there is a telescope above the restaurant for viewing planets. We saw Jupiter as the telescope is staffed by a knowledgeable team member.

This is an absolutely beautiful hotel. I’ve traveled around the world and stayed at many hotels, but I must say this one truly deserves a 10 out of 10. My only regret is that I stayed for just three days — I really needed a couple more to fully enjoy everything it offers. Everything here is simply excellent: the location, the design, the features, the cleanliness, the sea, and the private saltwater pool — absolutely impeccable. The staff is incredibly kind and welcoming — truly lovely people. The food is extraordinary, breakfast is fabulous, and the price is very reasonable for everything you get. Thank you so much, Hotel Las Islas. I hope to come back very soon, and I will gladly recommend you to everyone I know. Thank you, Fernando and Marina

Very romantic and secluded. It is truly one with nature and there were animals wandering around the entire property. The only drawbacks would be how spread out the property is (but that is mitigated by golf cart transportation) and the lack of multiple restaurants which limits the choices of meal choices. I would absolutely recommend it for a 3-4 night vacation!
