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!

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

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!!

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.

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 :-)

Perfect for what we were looking for.

Reviewed By jameswH4965OP

I’ve stayed in the same private room on two separate occasions, both of which were everything you could ever want in a hostel: clean, comfortable, friendly staff, right on the beach, nice view, great traditional Nica breakfast, all for $20 a night.

Casa Oro Eco Hostel

Casa Oro was the first hostel and surf school in San Juan del Sur. Before that it was an obligatory spot on the historic gold route through Central America. Today, Casa Oro is the first eco-hostel in San Juan del Sur, part of the Circulo Initiative, a family of for purpose businesses in pursuit of regeneration. Tourism growth and development often leave destructive side effects for cultures, communities and the environment. It doesn’t have to be like this though. We find inspiration in how nature works and use this as our compass for holistic creation. In everything we do, our aim is to leave places better than we found them. So far, it’s working. -- Just a hop, skip and a jump from the beach, Casa Oro offers a variety of budget-friendly accommodations designed with conscious backpackers in mind. We have both dorms and private rooms available. All of our dorm beds come equipped with privacy curtains for your convenience. The second and third floor boast a balcony that wraps around the entire building. A scrumptious breakfast is included with any stay along with free Wi-Fi, lockers (bring your own lock), free filtered water and access to a communal kitchen. Friendly vibes and hugs are also included at no extra charge. Our beach shuttles are conveniently located just outside the front door, surf school is downstairs and there’s even a RestoCafe/Bar, so all you’ve gotta do is roll out of bed and everything’s at your fingertips. We’ve also got donation-based yoga classes regularly.

Incompetent Staff - book another hostel!

Reviewed By 194nataschaw

Staff is incompetent and not reliable, don’t book a tour there, it was a total mess and unorganized. Kitchen was dirty as hell. Toilet didn’t work. No window in private rooms. Room had a chemical smell. Very Noisy on the night. No vibe. Breakfast though was pretty good although they didn’t bring what we ordered…Again Bad Bad Staff.

Basic hotel, but superb place ad people

Reviewed By rtw123

The hotel is basic, but clean, comfy beds, in a beautiful area ad the staff is superb. Erics is super helpful and speaks fluent English, which is great. Food is good. Highly recommend taking a kayak for a half-day. The only downside is slow Internet, but I don't think the hotel can do anything about it being so remote. A great place to stay overall.
