Villa Artista - Ocean View, Lap Pool, AC, WiFi - Houses for Rent in San Juan del Sur, Rivas, Nicaragua

Paul's place is beautiful. We loved our stay here. There are some things that have room for improvement. One bedroom that has its own separate apartment, except there was no WIFI or cell service to it. We had a single woman staying there where if she had an emergency, she could not communicate with the rest of us which made her nervous at night. The apartment is nice but the door frame had fist size holes in it with plastic bags stuffed into them. The wind would blow through them with dirt and all. The door lock was also tricky and hard to lock. The house has big beautiful glass doors that open to the view and is the reason I booked the house. They were flimsy and would not close properly. The house was clean but it needed to be refreshed. We didn't make a big deal of it, but hope for the future that a fresh wipe down is done before guests arrive The cristo is a short walk which is also a plus. The staff had great communication with me. Appreciated the security guard nearby.

Our apologies for the issues you have noted.  We are reviewing all with our team in an effort to not have this be the experience future guests have.

Was a fantastic getaway and location was great. With the new highway giving access to other beaches there are lots of places to see

Paul is a great host. I definitely recommend his house. I have stayed at many houses at San Juan del Sur, this is by far the best place that I stayed at.  I plan on staying again in a very near future. Paul you are great host, very friendly and responsive. thanks

It is an amazing place that offers a lot of comfort, in addition to being in a prime location.

Es un increíble lugar que ofrece mucha comodidad, además de tener una ubicación privilegiada.

The house was perfect! It was a more than we expected! Beautiful decoration and had a lot of amenities! Host was super and the people at the house were extremely friendly! We are definitely coming back soon!

Our stay at this Airbnb was absolutely amazing from start to finish. The property had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing vacation. The full appliances made it feel like a home away from home, and the space was clean, modern, and very well maintained. The highlight was definitely the stunning ocean view enjoying sunsets from the property was unforgettable. The pool was also fantastic, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. A special thank you to Franklin, who was incredibly attentive and helpful throughout our stay. He provided excellent local recommendations for restaurants and activities, which made our trip even better. His communication was quick, friendly, and thoughtful, and he truly made us feel welcomed. We had such a wonderful experience and would absolutely return again. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a beautiful and relaxing getaway!

We had an amazing time here! Highly recommend to anyone visiting San Juan del Sur

One of the most beautiful homes and views we have ever experienced! Very responsive and accommodating hosts.  We never wanted to leave the property and enjoyed the wide open spaces, lounging in the perfectly situated pool, incredible sunsets and lovely decor.  Well appointed with many amenities including, grill, kitchen needs, to pool floats.  We would come back and highly recommend the vacation spot!

I'm was very happy to rent this house, it was so beautiful and clean, It is recommend it 100%

This Home is absolutely stunning!!! the views were breathtaking. The house was an immaculate condition. And the host was super helpful and very quick to respond if we had any questions or concerns. We will definitely be coming back again.

The house and amenities are everything you’d expect and more! We absolutely LOVED the location and never wished for a single thing. Best pool to cool off in (partially shaded so you can find a break from the sun if you want), plenty of breeze to keep the doors open all day, great bbq and hangout areas for all our family (three college-age kids fully loved it). The beds were super comfy, the huge bathrooms were terrific, and basically every bedroom in the main house has a phenomenal view (we didn’t use the extra house). Franklin was fabulously helpful in showing us around the house, and using the app really helped us enjoy all SJDS had to offer. We’ll definitely come back bc this place is an 11/10.

We loved this place! Plenty of things to do inside… looking forward to staying again soon

Paul's Airbnb was great! It was just like the pictures, and we loved staying there. It is a little bit of a hike if you are walking from town, but we would definitely stay again.

This place was perfect! It is really unique, comfortable and with a great view.

Absolutely epic spot! The house is amazing with a beautiful view over looking the bay. Would HIGHLY recommend and hope to return again soon!

I really enjoyed my stay , the ac inside the bedroom with the balcony doesn’t really work too well but it did it’s best, and the house did have a lot of tiny critters such as ants by all entrances but it was bearable if you’re not too queasy on that. The house was beautiful and set up for family fun, and the bedrooms are set up in a way that allowed lots of privacy

Paul’s place is amazing! Beautiful home with outstanding ocean views.  Looks just like the pictures.  We enjoyed the tranquility of the neighborhood.  It is a very “natural” area so there are a lot of bugs and critters as well as some funny sounding night visitors BUT the home is safe and secure so just make sure to keep the doors closed.  The cleaning and maintenance people were super nice and helpful; attentive and responsive within minutes.  Location is also close (20 minute drive) to some great beaches like Hermosa and Mahagual that have seats and shade (a must for small children!).  This is our 3rd time renting a beach house in San Juan and it was definitely the best!

Thank you so much Yuritzi, especially for your understanding with the issue with the water pump.  You will be happy to know it has been replaced so please come visit again!

House is very nice and in good condition. My family enjoyed the lap pool and sunset views.

Our stay a Villa Artista was amazing. The ocean view was breathtaking and you can’t put a price on a private sunset. Little to no light pollution at night so the sky was nice and dark for star gazing. We loved the lap pool and the fact that the kitchen and living room opens directly to it. The bbq grill was super clean and worked perfectly. The eating nook practically had shade all day long and kept us cool while enjoying our meals. The fridge was cold but could have been a bit colder specifically the freezer. Might want to wait 1 full day before putting ice or ice cream in it. Haha This place is not listed as handicap friendly, but it honestly is. My father had no problems getting around with his walker and the corner bedroom was perfect for him. Plus the side door to the bathroom made it easier for him to go from the pool to take a shower. I could only assume that a wheelchair could be easily used here. Each room has AC and given the kw capacity per day, we were in heaven at night.

This was our first visit to Nicaragua, and we came primarily to surf. Villa Artista was a beautiful place to land — peaceful, secure, and uncluttered. It’s conveniently located just a short drive from San Juan del Sur and several great beach breaks. The views from the house were absolutely stunning, making it an ideal spot to relax between surf sessions & cool off in the lap pool. The hosts were very responsive, and the kitchen was well stocked — we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.

We really enjoyed staying at Paul’s, everything matched the way we saw in pictures and descriptions, we are looking forward to working with Paul again in the near future.

Best place to stay at. We asked for a cooking meal service and they shared with us the information and meals for Martha - she was amazing!! 10/10 in her service. The home has been the best we have ever stayed at in San Juan which we have many other and this one has been the best to accommodate. The service and attention was amazing too.

The only downfall was 2 nights was not enough time to enjoy the house 😭 Absolutely loved the house. I would highly recommend it. 🙌💕👌🥰

excellent service , very good local conditions, good location

excelente servicio , condiciones del local muy buenas , buena ubicación

Don't look any further and just book this place! From the moment we arrived, we were amazed by the stunning ocean views, modern design, and overall comfort of the home. We were 6 adults and a baby, and everyone had a master bedroom with an ocean view and private full bathrooms. This was the only villa that offered that luxury & I'm glad I booked it. The villa itself is immaculate—spacious, clean, and thoughtfully designed with modern decor. The long pool was a dream—perfect for a refreshing swim. The room with the queen bed is located in its own Casita on the 2nd floor above the parking area with its own small kitchen and living room incase you wanted to bring your own cook/cleaner to help around. The location was perfect—just a short drive from many restaurants, yet secluded enough to enjoy peace and tranquility. I would advise you rent a 4x4 car since there are a lot of steep roads to get to the villa (and preferably automatic, not manual car). We're definitely coming back!

Paul made sure our stay was seamless and unforgettable. The house was immaculate, tastefully decorated, and offered stunning views. The kitchen was fully equipped, and the living spaces were perfectly sized. The beds and bedding were extremely comfortable, and the in-room fan and AC were just right. The pool was ideal for relaxing while watching sunsets, cooling off, or swimming laps. We enjoyed the 10-minute walk to the main beach of San Juan del Sur where we were able to enjoy local food and great music. The quick stroll to the famous statue of the Christ, which offered a perfect overview of the bay, completed our stay. Thank you for this wonderful treat. Clara and Stephane

What a wonderful review - thank you Stephane and we are very happy you enjoyed your stay!

So happy we chose this property. It has three master bedrooms that all have great views of the tree canopy and ocean. We heard howler monkeys! Enormous folding window walls in the kitchen and living room. Good proximity to a large supermarket and downtown San Juan del Sur, but also quiet and private. 24-hour neighborhood security. The hosts were friendly and responsive, and went above and beyond to arrange for local staff to cook us an authentic Nica breakfast.

Thank you Alison - happy you enjoyed your stay!
