Very nice hotel on the beach front with a cute little pool. The pool gets the sun in the morning which is great to laze around and then head to the beach. Clean and comfortable rooms. We had a room around the pool so had no issue with noise from the street or nearby bars. Nice daily breakfast.

    There's something magical about this little beach community.

    There's something magical about this little beach community. The vibe and energy are great- restaurants and bars with excellent food & drink everywhere. Locals and tourists are friendly and helpful. We know a tiny bit of Espanol but were able to communicate with no issues, and English is spoken more prevalently than I had expected. Can't wait to visit again!!

    It is a busy town, with lots of surfers and retired folks living or visiting. Lots of motorbikes for getting around. Some excellent restaurants along the beach front including Henry's Iguana Bar, and Maggies' Restaurant up the street. Good fish tacos at little kiosk. Great beach walks, lovely sunsets and a few hikes to do. One to the Jesus protecting the bay and the other to the lighthouse on the opposite side of bay. Wear good shoes for those.

    Great little beach town with numerous bars and restaurants with amazing sunset views. Very walkable even in flip flops. Not a bad meal to be found! Lots of fun places to watch American football if you like that.

    everything is walking distance, you can get to the know the town easily just walking around. I liked Vivian restaurant, nice place, clean, friendly staff. the beach was full of trash... plastic trash, cups, bottles, cookie wraps, cans... trash all over the sand and in the ocean and for some reason nobody seems to care. it was very impressive and quite sad. Looking Good Surf House was a great place to stay!

    The town wasn't as bad as I was expecting!

    The town wasn't as bad as I was expecting! pretty calm in the day and evening, not sure about after that! we were there 2 days and for us that was just right. We went to Remanso beach one day and Maderas beach the other. Rented boards at each and tried to surf! Maderas waves were better, at least when we were there in April. We were at the beaches for about 5 hours each day. I didn't love the fact that Remanso had no shade and neither seemed to have much for facilities, except the few bars/restaurants that you kinda had to eat/drink at in order to have some shade or a shower or somewhere to hang out. Not really my favourite scene. SJDS itself was small town seeming in the center and easy to get around walking and lots of food options and the beach in town was great to explore with the kids, swim or watch sunset. It's easy to get in and our of either on bus from Rivas or taxi- 20$ from the Ometepe Ferry for 4 of us. 25$ to the border organized through Casa Oro.

    In the town there are a lot of open sewers and the smell is bad in many places. There is a lot of trash here and there. There is a lot of trash around the beach. The food is ok, the prices are alright. The better prices are away from the beachfront. Tamarindo is a much nicer and cleaner beach. The Nica's need to clean up the trash and the open sewers.

    The property is beautiful and the staff were amazing. Great place to be a little further from the downtown area of San Juan Del Sur to enjoy a peaceful view. The property is on top of a hill and not every taxi driver can get up it, especially during rainy season. The hotel staff does have recommend taxi drivers and the were very available. We also enjoyed the two dogs and cats around the property. They were all very friendly and we made great friends with Taco the cat.

    Nothing, it was a disgusting place to stay, they stole from us when we weren't in the room! Then they just ignored us and said they didn't steal anything. Read the bad review part for more details. They are gated, have 24/7 security, so only authorised people can get in. No one else was staying at the hotel apart from us. Horrible place to stay and scary. Imagine trusting people and they steal your things!! DO NOT STAY HERE!

    The location of this property is awesome. Right on the beach and within easy walking distance to the town proper. The pool is amazing and the staff were super friendly and very helpful when you could find them. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom suited our needs. For a cheap place(for San Juan) it is well worth the money. There were a lot of comfy seating areas to enjoy the view.

    We only stayed for 1 night, so for $40 with breakfast included right on the beach not bad at all :) The staff was friendly. The rooms are simple but clean with cute ocean view. The location is great. The shared bathrooms were clean and shower only had cold water. Breakfast was delicious :) The restaurant had nice menu and good food too.
