What is the difference between guapa and guapisimo? Does guapa mean beautiful and guapisimo mean gorgeous?

First of all, there is a gender difference. "Guapo" and "guapísimo" are both masculine adjectives, while "guapa" and "guapísima" are their feminine counterparts. The second difference is that "guapa" means attractive, while "guapísima" is a superlative, meaning "most attractive". So yes, "guapísima" is much more than just "guapa".
