Reviewed By Karlagut8m1287The owner of this hotel is not in his six senses! He treated us very bad. He almost beat my husband and was very irrispectful. If he was like this with man, can't imagine with woman. nnt recommended for solo woman travelers! This man is scary, really!

Perfect for me in Playa Guasacate
Reviewed By wkspenMy experience at Vibra Guesthouse was perfect. Communication with Carolina, the manager, was easy. She assisted with my reservation and was a great resource for information about the area - things to do an places to eat. The cabina was just as described on their website. Traveling solo, it I was perfect for me. The kitchen is well-equipped - although I did not cook as much as intended on my 4N stay. I will next time. The new blender did come in handy for smoothies and drinks! The living area/loft/bathroom was also well-equipped. There were several fans and plenty of outlets for devices. Extra towels in the bathroom w/ soap and the like. The bed was comfortable and linens were fresh. Good internet. The outdoor patio was the highlight and where I spent most of my time. It has two tables, hammocks and, a couple of bench seats. It is shaded and is a great spot to hang-out. Everything is kept-up and in tidy condition. Red Pepper next door has a really good Chicken Curry on Sunday nights for $8. I had a great chicken and onion calzone down the beach at Viento Este Pizza and a good hamburger at Casitas Pacifica. Great pastries right next door to Vibra. The Market has just about what one might need. Walked the beach in both directions and visited the plunge pools one morning. It was very laid back in Playa Guasacate and not many people - just what I needed. Will definitely stay longer next visit.

We really liked it, will choose again!
Reviewed By Guero13We stood there for one night and really liked it. I really appreciate the air conditioning in our room, as it was easy to use and not making any noise. Everthing was clean, staff was very helpful. Breakfast was very good as well.

A relaxing oasis
Reviewed By Meander44053088004The cabañas were the perfect relaxing oasis from our usual city vacations. The beach was right in from of us and every night we enjoyed a magnificent sunset. We borrowed surf boards and ripped around beginners bay which was just a 10 minute walk down the beach. Everything was perfect.

Each of the 40 meter square cabins (known locally as palapas) are made from eucalyptus wood and have high pitched palm roofs providing wonderful natural ventilation that capture the famous San Juan off shore breezes.
Fantastic trip, amazing people, wonderful food!
Reviewed By Helen NMy trip to Eden was exceptional! The hosts are gracious and caring and the yoga instructors are excellent. I met fascinating people from 7 different countries. The food was absolutely delicious! The views were gorgeous from my cabana and I felt really safe as a solo traveler. I will be back, 7 days wasn’t long enough.

Secret Gem
Reviewed By mjgriffyA actual house, hard to find online, but worth the effort if you can. Once you make contact, the property manager is very helpful and communicative. Another review (AB&B) referred to this as a “beach shack.” It is so much more than that! In fact, it is one of the nicest homes ON the beach in Gigante. With 4 bedrooms available, I rented just one but it included the whole house. The location is in the middle of the town. The kitchen was fully stocked with essential utensils, microwave, oven, full size fridge, etc. Cable TV (with USB/HDBI) was available, but WiFi was not. One can get free Wifi from Cicada two doors down. A/C was also available in one of the rooms for extra cost, but I found the fan sufficient. The views are phenomenal, the water is literally 15 steps out your door. A caretaker was always close by should I need any extra essentials or have questions. All in all, I found this place the perfect place to stay for a home-away-from-home. Because of “the situation” Gigante and most of Nicaragua was void of tourists (Aug 2018). But, in my months of travels, I had zero troubles. In fact, it was an incredibly positive and safe experience. I am so glad I put my concerns aside, and continued with my plans.
8. Mango's Lodge

Hotel Nena, worst experience ever!
Reviewed By zuilivThe room was cheap but very noisy, the window didn't have glass, the wifi was not good, the room was full of ants and not very clean. But the worst was the owner!! She seemed very helpful at the beginning, helping us to rent a scooter. Speaking with people after, we realized that we payed a lot too much. More, we had a very bad experience when we wanted to give back the scooter. We let him know since the beginning that we fell when we're stopped and that we caused a very small mark. The owner of the scooter, that was obviously family of her, tried to invent a lot of things to make us payed a lot and she was on his side. It was full of lies, his scooter was old and in very bad state and he wanted us to pay for everything asking us for a crazy price. This woman told us that it was the price. We called friends from Nicaragua that told us at what point it was not the price. At the end we asked to call the police and we "just" payed 30 box more. But it was a very bad experience with this woman that wasn't honest at all.
