Family-friendly holiday rentals in Nicaragua

This was our second time staying at *Casa de Campo*, and once again, our experience was excellent. The home was very clean, and the patio was beautiful and well maintained—perfect for relaxing. The staff was great and very helpful throughout our stay. The air conditioning worked perfectly in all the bedrooms, which made our stay very comfortable. The only small issue we encountered was with the Wi-Fi. The reception didn’t cover the whole house, and we had to stay close to the kitchen to get a decent signal, which occasionally dropped. Aside from that, everything else was wonderful. We highly recommend this place and look forward to staying here again.

It was a quiet place to rest and have fun, the pool is very comfortable and the place is super clean.

The home of as beautiful, everything was exactly as described. The groundskeeper was very kind and she was always ensuring we were ok and checking in to see if we needed anything. Honestly, I will book again!

Nice location just outside of the business of San Juan! Clean comfortable apartment. The owner Jan-Luc was very kind and quick to respond

A+ book it don’t hesitate. A dream home in a dream location. We had such a wonderful stay at this jungle hideaway! The property is absolutely stunning—completely surrounded by lush greenery and peaceful nature. Waking up to the sounds of the jungle and the breathtaking views each morning was honestly magical. The space was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. It felt like the perfect escape from the busyness of everyday life. We had a great time relaxing, exploring, and just soaking in the beauty around me. Would definitely come back and already recommending it to friends.

Wonderful place, with a spectacular view! The statue of Christ is super close to Malibu and the host was also super helpful in recommending local restaurants with a 20% discount :) They’re super attentive when it comes to any inquiries or maintenance questions. However, I will say that there were a lot of bugs outside so I recommend bringing repellent. Its location is not that inclined like most places in San Juan, so that was another upside to it. Great location, great staff, great place ❤️

Excellent place always come back every time I visit San Juan del Sur

Equilibrio was all that I hoped for and more. The owners, James and Gabriela have put much thought into the experience, anticipating what might delight their guests. There was plenty of space to relax, create, read, meditate, play, and enjoy the jungle, river, and beach. The casitas are fenced off from each other to create large, private jungle "yards." The 15 acre retreat is near town, but secluded, and each large casita has its own sizable part of the whole. I loved our "Guitar" casita which brings the best parts of the outside in -- the jungle view, the bird sounds, the breezes, and leaves out the bugs and rain. Heaven. The mosquito netting walls simply disappear. Our casita had plenty of bottled water, a refrigerator, coffee maker, coffee and tea, a closet room, and a large bathroom with a door that leads to a spacious, private, luxurious, solar-heated outdoor shower. We also had a private palapa with hammocks and rocking chairs. Outside our fence, down the trail was a larger shared space with more hammocks and rockers that was also the main gathering place/dining room/performance space. The staff is nearly invisible, but always there when you need them, smiling and helpful, serving food and drinks. The food was outstanding, featuring local vegetables, fruit smoothies and juices. The resort is not directly on the beach, but a short, bird-watching boat ride from the beach. Canoes and kayaks are available for exploration of the river estuary and trips to the beach. Daily yoga was included in our package and was not to be missed. Three days of the week we were at the studio on Popoyo beach where we could listen to the waves and gaze at the horizon. The beach is huge, beautiful, and empty. The lovely yoga studio at Equilibrio was a large palapa with a wood floor and mosquito netting all around that can be unfurled, if needed. Our teacher, Brook was wonderful, tailoring classes to our needs. We loved her classes and also managed to squeeze in some private sessions. Equilibrio is a treat, far away from the touristy parts, with nature all around and thoughtful service. Many thanks to James, Gabriela, and Brook for creating such a serene retreat experience and for the fantastic yoga. I hope to return soon.

Really enjoyed spending the weekend here! A nice place right on the beach and easy access to many restaurants and bars.

Jim’s place was beautiful, clean and private ! Great getaway ! Jim was very responsive and very attentive! 100 percent recommended.

A magical place for a relaxing stay away from the bustle in town. Nearby Playa Majagual is incredible, great for swimming as the little bay is quite protected, and El Ranchito, the restaurant run by Luis and his family, is awesome. Owner is very responsive. One of my favourite Airbnbs I’ve ever stayed at.

Easy instructions, beautiful place, looking to go again in the future

We loved CasAnica, it was in a great location, close to both beaches and a regular shuttle also was available to get us into San Juan Del Sur when we needed. Tony was also a great and accommodating host. We hope to come back to Nicaragua and stay again!

This place was beautiful! And the staff there were very friendly and helpful, and not to mention they went above and beyond to make sure we were accommodated to the max! Will definitely come back and stay at this place again!!

I would've loved to stay longer! We booked this home at the last minute because we were crossing borders in Central America and it was dark before we reached our planned destination. Rodolfo responded immediately and gave us a beautiful place to stay. His home is so lovely and the setting is beautiful. The bed was very comfortable and we slept well in a secure environment. Thank you so much, Rodolfo!

I highly recommend Sandor’s place. The pictures give you an idea of the great place but they do not justice in the sense of the feeling of relaxation you get seating at pool, the beautiful sound of different birds softly singing, while having breakfast by the pool or the indoor patio, the wonderful soft sun of the early morning, having a freshly cut coconut with fresh cut Mangoes, Avocados, Watermelon, and other fruits. Other advantages is the close proximity to to many amazing places within less than a 40 minutes drive. This is my second time staying at Sandor’s place and though there are hundreds of places to stay in Managua and surrounding areas I would not stay in any other place than here. You feel like you are at home away from home, still in vacation. Do stay You will NOT regret it and it’s stead you would want to keep on returning like me.

Great place to stay, close to everything you need.. Apartment was well stocked and comfortable!! Extremely helpful with letting me check-in early and checkout late. Would definitely stay again!!

I stayed 12 days at Casa Crickmar. The private pool was amazing, customer service was terrific, and the location was unbeatable.

This is an incredible stay, a perfect oasis with beautiful architecture details, fresh air with great fans and ac in the bedroom. The garden is so beautiful. We loved our stay and will definitely be coming back to casa cairo

This place is right on the most beautiful beach I’ve ever seen in my life. It was perfect for a weekend with family and friends to enjoy a relaxing weekend. The condo is perfect to get away from the noise and chaos of city life.

The house is amazing, you have access to the beach right in front of you, only recommendation for anybody is to bring your own food from a local supermarket as there is an hour drive off road(4x4 recommended) after reaching san juan, the place is very private, you have the beach for yourself, the house is very clean, enough rooms, and spacious. Local housekeeper was very useful as he can go buy you items at extra cost while you enjoy your time, final score 10/10.

We loved staying at Antonio's beautiful home. Well stocked kitchen & living room, super comfy bedrooms & the AC worked great. Great location to wander & shop and loved the dipping pool to cool off at the end of the day. The layout was great because the bedrooms were in the back away from traffic and the kitchen area is separated at the front so you can be noisy in the morning if everyone else is still sleeping!

Maria’s place was amazing, the view of San Juan del Sur bay was absolutely beautiful! She was incredibly communicative and attentive, always making sure we were comfortable and well-informed. We especially appreciated her guidance on electricity use, which helped us stay within the daily budget, very helpful given how energy costs work locally. Her recommendations for places to visit were spot on, and she was always ready to help. Thank you, Maria, for being such a thoughtful and welcoming host!

Very spacious home located in an area near restaurants and a town square. Air conditioners were very effective to keep the bed rooms comfortable. Home has all of the amenities you may need to cook or prepare meals. Check in and check out were smooth. Guide book provided by host was helpful for tours and recommendations.
