La Omaja has the best location on the island. The views are really amazing; a sunset with a vulcano as dramatic backdrop cannot be found in many places... The gardens are lush and beatiful as well and the cabana's perfectly placed to give you the most of the views and lots of privacy. Food is good too and the freshly made juices are a real treat and very affordable. You are pretty close to nature and expect a spider or two, but also expect howler monkey's visting up in the trees now and then! It's an easy walk to a lovely pier in the lake where you can watch the birdlife or the stars at night; this is not a swimmimg location, but that can be done nearby. Staff is helpfull in arranging all kinds of activities if you don't have your own transportation. The pool is a bit smaller than it looks in the pictures but great to watch the sunset. There's excellent wifi at the restaurant, but not at the cabanas.

Just amazing! :-)

Reviewed By NicoleD4646

I would give a higher rating if I could. This hotel is outstanding! I was the only guest and stayed in the room with ocean view. Oh my God... It was just amazing! The room itself is super nice, comfy big bed, huge bathroom, big closet with safe, desk and even some fresh flowers in the room, own terrace with sofa and hammock, stunning view. The beach is really clean and waves aren't too high, so you can go and enjoy swimming. If you feel more like having a good time in the pool: it looked very good, too. (I'm just more the ocean person, that's why I didn't use it.) Tracy manages the hotel and is a real super host. :-) She is always making sure you're fine. She took me to La Flor and offered to pick me up at any time I wanted - even in the middle of the night. Staff is also really nice, helpful, friendly and always smiling. I felt super welcome and like at home. Breakfast was fantastic: gallo pinto, eggs, really good bread, jam, fruits, fresh juice, coffee. ...and a lot! Lunch/ dinner would also be available. Thank you very much for this wonderful experience! I loved it and if I come back to Nicaragua I'll definitely be back at La Veranera. :-) Some organizational things: There is a restaurant next door and a small tienda is also around the corner. There is a bus from/ to San Juan 3 times a day. If you come by car, a sedan car will do it in dry season. But for rain season, you might even struggle with a 4x4. (On the way back we had to cross a river and only the bus dared to go.) If you wonder whether you could cross the border to Costa Rica at Frontera de Conventillos or at least use that road next to the boarder to/from Sapoá: I was told by several people it's not possible.

Best hotel in Nica so far - amazing value for money!

Reviewed By josephinerourke

Everything about our stay here was perfect. The hotel is right in the centre of Granada, about 2 minutes walk from where our bus (from Leon) dropped us. Restaurants, bars, cathedrals and the market were all so close by, yet despite staying over a weekend there was no noise to disturb our sleep. The owner, Gerry, gave us many amazing recommendations, as well as directions around the city, and helped us book trips. Compared to every other pace we have stayed in our month in Nica the hotel is the most western friendly, with hot water, toilets that you can flush paper and air conditioning. Breakfast was beautiful, each morning Gerry made pancakes and we were also given fresh fruit and toast. Use of the communicable kitchen along with fridge for drinks was available, and there was a water filter machine to fill bottles also free. Nice modern TV in the room with ability to log into Netflix. Can’t believe the value for money this hotel offers!

San Simian Eco Lodge

San Simian is a charming Eco Lodge in the Laguna de Apoyo Dry Forest Preserve. Nestled along the water's edge, this secluded resort has private unique lodging tucked into the slope of the crater and steps from the swimming dock, hammocks and bar where guests pass the time. Guests can stay in a unique palm-roofed cottage with open air shower, private garden or terrace, eat at our full service restaurant and relax at our outdoor bar. As San Simian is equipped with a Catamaran, several Kayaks, and other water toys, activity revolves at the lake front and in the clear warm water itself, however, bird and monkey watching in the surrounding forest are also popular, and we are also located at the entrance to a great hike path that leads up the hill to the Pueblas Blancas artisan villages and the stunning Mirador at Catarina. Please Call Ahead if you would like us to arrange a massage, pedicure, Spanish lesson, guided hike, Granada or Masaya tour.

Keeps Getting Better

Reviewed By wkspen

Back in the Laguna in March, I stayed again at San Simian and was able to check-out their recently constructed cabina - Limon. Limon sits up the hill near the road and restaurant. The modern design and bright color set is apart from the other cabinas. Additionally, it is a two-story structure with a balcony overlooking the Laguna. Limon actually consists of two separate bedrooms and two baths, interconnecting to a common indoor spiral stairway, that ascends to a spacious, open sitting area with dining table and chairs, a couple of bench seats and lounger chairs. There is a widescreen TV, internet, a wet bar w/ mini refrigerator. It is open all the way around, and with large ceiling fans that provide good ventilation. It is a nice comfortable spot to hangout and relax. The space has good lighting for reading, playing games, meetings, or whatever. One bedroom features a queen bed and the other (2) bunk beds. There is seating in the room and dressers/racks for storage. The rooms have excellent lighting. Each bedroom has a ceiling fan, air conditioning and own indoor bathroom. The bathrooms have a spacious hot water shower, large vanity with storage and sink, and good lighting. Limon is ideal for a group or family, with space to be together, but also privacy when needed. I also took note of recent renovations to Coco and Papaya, both reconfigured, and with Coco gaining a sitting area and an outdoor bathroom. Bathhouses down by the beach bar have been expanded and the bar has been renovated. The landscape continues to evolve with new plants being added. I stayed for several days on the front and end of my trip. The food and service were excellent as usual. The staff is friendly and responsive. San Simian is a very tranquil property away from some of the properties catering to the younger crowd and day trippers. In my opinion, one of their biggest assets.

EL Belga Loco

With its little but refreshing pool in front of the Pacific ocean, El Belga Loco is a little and quiet hostal directly on the beach of Las Peñitas, close to the colonial city of Leon, Nicaragua. Each of the 7 rooms has fans, mosquito nets and a private bathroom equipped with a shower. Rest areas such as couch and tv inside the main building, but also hammocks and lounge chairs on the terrace give you the unique opportunity to relax after surfing or hiking and to cool off after visiting Leon. Drinks and snacks are available all day and breakfast is also possible. El Belga Loco provides you with WIFI throughout the property and free parking. EL Belga Loco is meant to be a "quiet, private and exclusive" place...and for this reason the access is limited to "guests only" and no children aged less than 10.

Miramar Surf Camp

Miramar Surf Camp consists of 3 individuals lodging areas, spread over a half acre beachfront property. We have 13 fully equipped A/C rooms nestled throughout the gardens which overlook the beautiful point break out front. There is lots of parking, a surf front pool, oceanfront restaurant area, yoga/training gym, game area, surf TV room, hammock hangout area and surf front living room! We are strategically positioned right in front of one of the best reef breaks of Nicaragua, in a place blessed by consistent waves and offshore winds all day. There are FIVE breaks within a 200 metre walk, to give you lots of opportunity to score uncrowded waves. It's not necessary have a car to surf in our area, in addition to the many waves within walking distance, we also have our own boat that provides daily shuttles to surf Puerto Sandino, El Transito, Salinas or other secret spots. This property is located in Punta Miramar. This beautiful left hander breaks over a rock reef bottom but still has a deep takeoff. The wave can be heavy with some nice barrel sections that flow into a softer section before it hits the inside and throws again. Provides long rides on the better days. Our hotel is located near Pipes. A-Frame Beach Break with a flat reef on the lefts. This wave has long lefts and rights and will barrel on most swells and works well on all tides.This property is also located near Puerto Sandino. This is the most popular spot in the area. An offshore break with boat access only. A very long left over a sand bar with rocks on the inside. This wave can be very fast and hollow at times and provide long rides. Also know as "freight trains" or "La Barra" works on low tide and the boats leave in front of Miramar Surf Camp. In addition to solid surf, the property has an oceanfront restaurant and small bar for guests to enjoy. Sitting atop the point, you can enjoy fresh burgers, fish, salads and the plate of the day whilst watching your friends get barrelled out front. We have a selection of local beers, fresh juices and sodas to sip on to keep yourself feeling hydrated in the blistering heat. Or take a couple to our oceanfront pool while you keep cool. For all the non-surfers, we have an on-site training area where you can enjoy yoga, jiujitsu or your own routine. We can arrange a variety of interesting activities such as horseback riding, paddle boarding, volcano treks or a guided visit to nearby colonial city Leon to enriched your vacation. We hope to see you soon!

Great surfcamp

Reviewed By maariusss

The miramar surfcamp has a perfect location directly at the beach with a great view. There are plenty of different spots nearby, one is directly in front of the house. We were there in May when the bigger swells arrived (great waves with offshore in the mornings) and most of the people in the camp were intermediate to advanced surfers. There was a boat trip to Puerto Sandino or other spots every day depending on the tide and wind (and coffee from 5am, very nice!). The hosts and staff are super nice, the food is great and we were lucky enough to have stretch sessions with James for sunset.

Comfortable stay nearby to airport

Reviewed By josephinerourke

Nice room with good good aircon, breakfast served from 4am due to being an airport hotel. No towels in the room which we had to ask for and had a long wait for, long wait for check in and staff were helpful but very slow and service was without a smile. Probably a 25 minute walk to the airport from here so we had to pay a 4$ taxi to drop us there (or it’s 6$ for pick up), as it’s an airport hotel we expected it to be more walkable.

Great hotel to go to

Reviewed By 416to505

If you are looking for a nice low cost hotel, this is the place to go. It is very clean, the cleaning crew is awesome. Reception crew is very friendly and always happy to answer any question. Free breakfast and dinner. Great selection for breakfast (french toast and fruits; pancakes, eggs and bacon; gallo pinto or rice an beans, cheese, eggs) and dinner (chicken, beef, fish, pasta, etc.). Waiters and chef are very friendly and always happy to add extra bacon. The only issue I had was the swimming pool. Not because it was too small, but because it was dirty so if you don't care about the swimming poll, everything is amazing.
