Killer views, stunning location

Reviewed By Mark G

The views are truly stunning. You can watch people surfing from your bed! Staff are friendly, most speak English if you need it. It is as the name suggests a big surfer crowd, all laid back and just fine with us old folks in their midst. It sits between 2 great surf beached one great for beginners, one full of fun for the more experienced. If you are older like us walking on the beach, swimming, exploring rock pools on the Magnific Rock itself are all excellent. The food is top notch. Lost of breakfast selections, smoothies. Burgers to Lobster at lunch and dinner. I had Lobster, at $24 i expected a half a lobster, but I received 1 and a half! Cooked to perfection on the grill. I love this place and keep coming back. To top it off for an Aussie it is run by Australians and we were offered Vegemite with our toast :-)

ESCARLET is a really good host. The hostel is right at the beach. So that s perfect to wake up! It's also right next to the big surf if you feel like a bit more party vibe;) the sunsets are amazing. And there is a truck with fresh food stopping by every morning to start the day with some good energy!!

Beginners Surf Camp

Had a brilliant week here learning to surf! Maxi, Machi and Nico were great instructors! Our group had 6 people in it. We surfed mainly at Gavilan beach, which had great waves and was usually much quieter than other spots. The breakfast and lunch food was always nice. Never been so exhausted!!!

Fantastic surf camp in Popoyo :)

Reviewed By hannahcharleyf

Nicawaves was an absolutely fantastic surf camp. If you’re a beginner or someone who is learning I would highly recommend the learn to surf package, Candi our teacher was so lovely and our surfing improved no end. The food at Nicawaves was also UNREAL - and genuinely the only place in Nicaragua we didn’t get a dodgy stomach ? we even had friends staying locally who just came for dinner a few times, they loved it so much! The hotel and grounds felt like a slice of luxury paradise esp. for two weary travellers :D Last thing to mention - the staff are a credit to the resort! Always helpful, kind and polite, overall just lovely people :) plus Mike the owner must be the most helpful man in Nicaragua! Not only were we a last minute booking and the transfer was arranged with no problem, we also had some super random requests that he helped with (my boyfriend’s bike spoke broke, we genuinely never thought we were going to get that fixed but Mike knows everything there is to know locally I swear!). All in all you’re looking to book just a room or surf camp, I wouldn’t hesitate to book nicawaves again :)

Casitas Pacific

WOW!!!!!! A must place to stay and eat!

Reviewed By APalms4

Just left casita pacific hotel and we miss it already. The place is beautiful and right on the water! Thé hôtel property is well maintained by the groundskeepers and the hotel owner. The cleaning ladies are very attentive, very thorough and incredibly nice. The restaurant staff are also very attentive, kind, quick and efficient! Réception staff are there to help and make sure you have everything you need! Upon check in the young man working reception kindly helped me haul my massive suitcase up to my room! Last but not least, the owners, well, they were also so fabulous! They have the kindest hearts as they have « adopted » a stray dog that is quite ill. It was beautiful to hear that they are doing everything they can do save this dog that has been very neglected. Please stay here or visit their restaurant when you’re in the area! You will not be disappointed! Promise!! Thank you Casita Pacific Hotel! We will be back most definitely in the near future! Xo

Amazing dinner!

Reviewed By cvdheuvel

I didn't stay at the place to sleep but went out for dinner and the food was amazing! Great atmosphere and the people who work there are very friendly. Highly recommend the pizza gorgonzola, the best! Everything is very clean, good value for food and the pool is gorgeous. The owner even brought us to our hostel when we didn't feel like walking back. Thank you for the lovely evening, keep up the good work!

Ruamoko Hostel is located near Playa Santana which lies on the Pacific Coast in Nicaragua. Our hostel is focused on giving our guests long lasting memories during their time on the emerald coast, as well as providing excellent accommodation and delicious food.

Dope place, dope people, dope area, dope surf.

Reviewed By Pala K

We showed up to popoyo in slow season, plus the protests were going on so there was almost no one around. Ruamoko was closed due to this, but we emailed the owners and asked if we could stay anyway because of the heat reviews. They (Peter and the volunteer, Tom) had no problem housing, feeding, and hanging with the four of us. Beautiful people, we would definitely go back to popoyo just to stay at ruamoko again.

Parfait !

Reviewed By Ambassador660811

Nous avons séjourné en couple plusieurs jours dans ce lieu magique à face à l’océan. Nous avons été accueilli par Alejo et son équipe. Nous avons pu découvrir le coin ( et les spots de surf) grâce aux nombreux conseils de notre hôte. Les petits déjeuners sont bons et les Buddha bowl le midi sont à tomber ! Le lieu commun face à l’océan est vraiment reposant, un petit bar vous permet de profiter de bières locales, des jus frais... Alejo organise une fois par semaine un super petit concert live au top. Bref, si vous voulez surfer, vous reposer et vous imprégner de la ville, c’est le bon endroit. Merci encore pour ce séjour.

Kept on extending my stay at Big Surf House which is an amazing hostel literally on the beach and walking distance to so many good waves. Off shore almost every day. Good wifi, pool table, table tennis, big big kitchen, this place has it all and my favourite hostel I stayed at from over 6 months of travel. Couldn’t recomend this place enough, Cody, Mario and Antonio work hard to make this place so so so good. I will be back!
