Villa Ometepe - Houses for Rent in Mérida, Rivas, Nicaragua

We enjoyed our stay at this villa very much. The accommodation was pleasant and very well located on the island, which allowed us to easily enjoy several interesting activities nearby. The host and the villa manager were very responsive and available throughout our stay. Their recommendations were also excellent and allowed us to discover very beautiful places.

Nous avons beaucoup apprécié notre séjour dans cette villa. Le logement était agréable et très bien situé sur l’île, ce qui nous a permis de profiter facilement de plusieurs activités intéressantes à proximité. L’hôte et le manager de la villa ont été très réactifs et disponibles tout au long de notre séjour. Leurs recommandations étaient également excellentes et nous ont permis de découvrir de très beaux endroits.

Our stay was wonderful. It's a beautiful house with a great terrace. From the terrace, we had a beautiful view of the volcano and of the monkeys sitting in the trees around the property. The house was also perfect. The beds were wonderful, and it had everything we needed. The pool has a somewhat unusual location (with a separate staircase), but we already knew that. In terms of location, it is close to Playa Peru and Playa Mango, and it is also close to the river for kayaking. We had a very nice stay. Erik was very helpful and always available.

Ons verblijf was geweldig. Het is een prachtig huis met een geweldig terras. Vanaf het terras hadden we een prachtig uitzicht op de vulkaan en op de aapjes die in de bomen rondom het perceel zaten. Ook het huis was perfect. De bedden waren heerlijk en het had alles wat we nodig hadden. Het zwembadje is wat bijzonder gelegen (met een aparte trap), maar dat wisten we al. Qua locatie ligt het dicht bij Playa Peru en Playa Mango en ligt het ook dicht bij de rivier om te kajakken. We hebben een heel fijn verblijf gehad. Erik was heel behulpzaam en altijd te bereiken.

This place was amazing. Plenty of room for my family of 6. Kids loved the open deck. The plunge pool had the most amazing view and we saw all the birds, a squirrel, and a couple monkey climb up in the tree canopies. It was like being in a tree house. Great location and lots to do that was within 25 min of the house.

Unfortunately, our experience wasn't what we expected. I think the price does not correspond to what the accommodation offers. Communication with the host was good, and he always responded when needed. However, the pool is on the top floor and access is via very steep stairs, which I thought was a safety risk, especially for children or people with limited mobility. In addition, the bathroom had an unpleasant odor throughout our stay. Another aspect that made us feel uncomfortable was that the owners constantly came to the property. While we were away, we even noticed that someone entered the accommodation, which affected our sense of privacy. I think there are several aspects that should be improved so that the experience is worth the price they charge. I hope these comments help you make the necessary changes and help future guests know what to expect.

Lamentablemente, nuestra experiencia no fue la que esperábamos. Considero que el precio no corresponde con lo que ofrece el alojamiento. La comunicación con el anfitrión fue buena, y siempre respondió cuando fue necesario. Sin embargo, la piscina se encuentra en el último piso y el acceso es por unas escaleras muy empinadas, lo que me pareció un riesgo para la seguridad, especialmente para niños o personas con movilidad limitada. Además, el baño tenía un olor desagradable durante toda nuestra estancia. Otro aspecto que nos hizo sentir incómodos fue que los dueños llegaron constantemente a la propiedad. Incluso, mientras estábamos fuera, notamos que entraron al alojamiento, lo cual afectó nuestra sensación de privacidad. Creo que hay varios aspectos que deberían mejorar para que la experiencia esté a la altura del precio que cobran. Espero que estos comentarios sirvan para que puedan hacer los cambios necesarios y para que futuros huéspedes sepan qué esperar.

Hello Jairo, It's a shame to see your comment, because since you arrived, you've let me know that you liked the house. It is unfortunate to see that we could not meet your expectations. As communicated, the jacuzzi is optional for the guest. All the information about it is on Airbnb. You know the height at which it is located, and in addition to that, upon your arrival, I explained the rules and the care you should take with the children, who must always be accompanied by an adult. Hopefully, in the future, if you wish to return, we can meet your expectations. Have a good trip and continue to enjoy this wonderful country that will always welcome you. best regards, Erik.

Really clean and spacious. The pool and hammock area were so nice to sit in. Nearby restaurants were very local and cheap, super yummy. Waterfall is just down the road. Host was very accommodating

Muy lindo lugar y súper amable el anfitrión

We had a great stay on Isla de Ometepe! The home was spacious, clean, comfortable, and had beautiful views. We even got to see monkeys from the property, which was such a special experience. Communication with Rudmer was easy and seamless, and Erik, the property manager, was incredibly kind and made sure we had everything we needed. We only wish we could have stayed longer. Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We're only asking for the pool, since it's not suitable because it's in a very dangerous area for adults and children, and it's only for two people at most.

Solo se le pide la picina ya que no es adecuada por qué está en una área muy peligrosa para adultos y niños y solo es para dos persona lo máximo

Erik is incredibly communicative. He responds super quickly to all inquiries. Amazing customer service. The place is different from what we normally see, and that makes it unique. We hope to go back

Erik es increíblemente comunicativo. Responde súper rápido a todas la consultas. Servicio al cliente increíble. El lugar es diferente a lo que vemos normalmente y eso lo hace único. Esperamos volver

Nice and clean place to stay. The patio deck with hammocks made it easy to relax and enjoy the night. We got to see monkeys from the balcony.

Excellent space with an incredible view, full of peace and tranquility. It's very comfortable and perfect for relaxing with family and friends. Erik provided amazing service; he was very friendly and welcoming.

Erik is the best! Very nice and large accommodation; it's a real gem. We loved this place.

Erik est le meilleur! Très beau et grand logement, c’est une vrai pépite. Nous avons adoré ce logement.

An excellent place for a vacation, and excellent, proactive hosts.

Excelente lugar para vacacionar, y unos excelentes y proactivos Hosts.

Thank you very much for everything, Erick was very kind.

Muchas gracias por todo, muy amable Erick

Beautiful views of Concepcion volcano and the lake. Peaceful and surrounded by nature :)

This villa is absolutely STUNNING! Beyond the beautiful property, our host Erik, truly went above and beyond all expectations. From personally meeting us at arrival and departure to providing excellent restaurant recommendations, arranging motorbike rentals, and taxi arrangements, he made our trip seamless. ​The highlight of his hospitality was when we had a broken clutch cable on the side of the road; Erik personally contacted the rental shop and coordinated the repair road side. It wasn't even his obligation to help, but he stepped up anyway. There are also monkeys that visit villa frequently. If you're looking for a beautiful stay with a host who genuinely cares about his guests, look no further!

Great stay at Villa Ometepe by Rudmer! The house is beautiful, comfortable, and has amazing lake and volcano views and is perfect for relaxing. Eric took great care of us, arranging a taxi to the port, organizing scooters delivered to the house, and setting us up with a volcano hike and kayak tour. Highly recommend for an easy and memorable stay on Ometepe.

This private, walled  sanctuary sits upon a hillside with a clear view of the lake from the 3rd level deck. The sunsets are phenomenal and at night, you can see  a million stars. This place is spacious and clean. I would definitely recommend this stay to anyone visiting Ometepe.

We had a great single night stay. The third floor of the home and the elevated pool had an incredible view for sunset. We enjoyed the howler monkeys and birds surrounding the property. The place was immaculate and the hosts were super responsive. Note be prepared for stairs - the main sleeping space is on the second floor, and the hangout area/kitchen is on the third. We accidentally locked ourselves out of the main floor, and they responded very quickly. We also appreciated the food delivery option. All around a good option to stay.

A great place with a fantastic location to explore Ometepe Island.

Our host was amazing! Since we couldn’t get a spot in the ferry for our car, Eric, was very helpful getting us a taxi to pick and drop us off to the port. We had some minor issues with the water and electricity but Eric took care of it right away. He also recommended great places to go to during our visit. If you are trying to enjoy this beautiful island and get away from the crowds, this is the place to go. We saw different types of birds and insects, plus we loved the view. I am very happy with the overall experience.

Great place for a weekend in Ometepe, you can’t be the views!

I absolutely loved my stay at this home - it is easily the prettiest home on Ometepe Island. We were nervous when we arrived because of past reviews, but those fears disappeared the second we stepped inside. The home was spotless, extremely clean, and bug-free during our 4-day stay. No bed bugs, no issues at all - we checked every room ourselves. There are mosquitoes, so bring bug spray! The hospitality made everything even better. Erik, the home manager, is the sweetest, helped with literally everything, and made us feel so cared for. He also owns a restaurant that delivers delicious food straight to the home, which was so convenient for our all-women group. Speaking of safety - we felt very safe, even walking outside at night as a group of women. We asked to still use the jacuzzi, made our own decision as adults, and had an absolute blast. Thank you, Rudder (host) and Erik for an unforgettable stay. And a huge thank you to our amazing host, Rudmer, for everything. 10/10 recommend!

The Villa was beautiful and very green, as an individual that lives in a desert it was really amazing to see all the vegetation everywhere. I would absolutely recommend staying here though there are mosquitoes all over the island so definitely bring the bug repellent for when you step out but once your inside you wont have to worry about them so long as the doors are kept closed.

Thank you so much for your review Daniel. We hope to see you back one time.

I booked this property for a 2-night stay, primarily because the listing highlighted a jacuzzi and included air conditioning, both of which were important to me. Unfortunately, the experience did not meet expectations. First, the jacuzzi was not easily accessible. It was located at the top of a very steep and narrow staircase, four levels up on a small platform that didn’t feel very safe. It was definitely not as inviting or usable as it appeared in the pictures. Second, the air conditioning didn’t work the first night. Only after I had completed the booking and paid was I told that the A/C "sometimes doesn’t work" due to issues with the power grid. Had I known this in advance, I would have likely chosen a different place for about 60% of the cost of this one. While the property has potential, key amenities not working or not being as advertised, made this a disappointing stay overall.

It's a good place, but I think it's a little expensive for what it really is, a house with a small rooftop pool. The host's service is excellent and he responds quickly.

Es un buen lugar, pero creo que algo caro para lo que realmente es, una casa con una pequeña piscina en el techo. El trato del anfitrión excelente y responde rápido.

Erik was extremely nice and always willing to help, which we really appreciated. The food delivery option was also very convenient. Unfortunately there were some major issues during our stay. We experienced bed bugs and got bit quite badly which made the stay very unpleasant. In addition the pool area felt unsafe as the stairs were narrow and slippery with algae and the railing at the top was not safe. This is a serious hazard especially for kids as a fall from that height could be very dangerous.

Dear Santhiya, Thank you very much for your review. We have taken your complaint extremely seriously. We have purchased certified bed bug-proof covers for all mattresses so that this problem is completely resolved. Strangely enough, with a test, by running an iron over the mattress, we could not find any bed bugs. We found this test on YouTube. But despite this, we have taken professional steps, purchased certified bed bug-proof covers and can assure you that there are no bed bugs if you stay with us again next time. We are very sorry for the negative experience. We're happy to hear you found Erik helpful and enjoyed the food delivery service.

The accommodation is clean, but we found the place rather unwelcoming. Fortunately, the terrace is beautiful and offers a beautiful view. On the other hand, it was impossible to enjoy the spa: with children, it is not safe (too high, cold and non-functional). Regarding Erik, we were delighted with his hospitality. She is an extremely kind, helpful and always available person. Whenever we had a question, he answered us immediately, which was greatly appreciated. This place is a bit far from everything, and the path is difficult. Finally, a practical tip: plan to shop before you arrive, because the nearby market looks more like a convenience store than a real grocery store.

Le logement est propre, mais nous avons trouvé l’endroit plutôt peu chaleureux. Heureusement, la terrasse est magnifique et offre une très belle vue. En revanche, il a été impossible de profiter du spa : avec des enfants, il n’est pas sécuritaire (trop haut, froid et non fonctionnel). Concernant Erik, nous avons été ravis de son accueil. C’est une personne extrêmement gentille, serviable et toujours disponible. Chaque fois que nous avions une question, il nous répondait immédiatement, ce qui a été très apprécié. Cet endroit est un peu loin de tout , et le chemin difficile. Enfin, un conseil pratique : prévoyez de faire vos courses avant d’arriver, car le marché voisin ressemble davantage à un dépanneur qu’à une véritable épicerie.

My experience at this place was truly disappointing. The hot tub poses a safety hazard because of the steep stairs, and unfortunately, I suffered from over 50 bedbug bites (I have pictures to back this up). Accessing the location is a challenge without a truck, as the road is unpaved for the final two kilometers. Moreover, relocating the kitchen to the first floor would be highly beneficial, particularly due to ongoing wasp issues. If you’re charging $200 a night, I strongly urge you to provide better amenities and entertainment on the second floor. This place has the potential to be so much better!

A steep staircase leads to a beautiful plunge pool with stunning views, and just 2 km of unpaved road brings you to a true paradise that everyone can reach without any problem in a normal car. There’s a lovely kitchen directly connected to the open living room, allowing you to fully enjoy the surrounding nature. Reading your review, it feels like you may have booked the wrong accommodation and not read the listing carefully. That’s unfortunate. Of course, being in the jungle means there are some insects, such as harmless wasps — that’s simply part of the environment. I’m sorry you experienced bites. We have never received any complaints about bedbugs, and we treat the bedrooms regularly.

Super comfortable, clean rooms, fully equipped kitchen, the view is beautiful, very kind host. We will definitely return

Habitaciones súper cómodas, limpias, la cocina completamente equipada, la vista es hermosa, mucha amabilidad de parte del anfitrión. sin duda volveremos

This house is highly recommended. It is in a very quiet place with incredible views. The house has everything you need and more. It is in a place with many things at hand such as restaurants, beaches, pharmacy. Super easy to get to, they help you with everything you need and if you need something from the house they respond almost immediately, one of the best Airbnbs I've ever stayed at and I would definitely come back!!!!!! 😄

Súper recomendable esta casa, está en un lugar muy tranquilo con unas vistas increíbles la casa tiene todo lo que necesitas y más está en un lugar con muchas cosas a la mano como restaurantes, playas, farmacia. Súper fácil de llegar te ayudan en todo lo que necesites y si necesitas algo de la casa te responden casi de inmediato, de los menores Airbnb en los que eh estado y definitivamente volvería a venir!!!!!! 😄

It was a great location, and it felt like home. Erik was so nice and friendly. It gave us a lot of things to do on the island. Highly recommended!

Some of the road to get to the airBnB is unpaved. We managed getting there with scooter and a small car. I do think a truck would have been a better option.

Hi Matt, Thanks for the 5 star review! You are right, the last part of the road is unpaved. Nevertheless, it is fortunately doable with a car. Still, we hope that it will be paved soon for more ease of use. Hopefully see you again

The place is nice, it matched the pictures expect for the pool. You need to climb up stairs that are sketchy and not safe. The ac only worked in one room that was fine since we were only 2 but if we would’ve been more than 2 the others would’ve died in heat. Also the kitchen is on an other floor , so it’s not accessible from the main floor. The location of the place was deep down in the jungle, nothing was around. The main restaurants are at least 20 minutes away by bike from the house. So there is nothing to do around the place. Over all, the place was clean and Erik did everything to welcome us the nicest way, the things we didn’t like more concerned the house.

Hi Samuel, Thank you for taking the time to write a review! Great to hear that you found it a pleasant place and that the photos matched the listing. The photo of the stairs leading to the pool is also shown on Airbnb, and we’ve noted that the stairs may feel steep to some people. But I can understand that you may have overlooked that while booking — our apologies for that. Glad to hear the air conditioning in your room worked properly. The electricity company is currently replacing the entire network, which is causing some occasional issues. Fortunately, they are almost finished, and we hope to have reliable power for the air conditioning again soon. It’s true that the kitchen is located on the second floor, where the open living area is as well — a place where guests can enjoy the beautiful view. The kitchen is easily accessible via stairs. You mentioned that there’s nothing to do and no restaurants nearby, but that’s not actually the case. There are several restaurants within walking distance, and many great activities in the area — such as visiting the San Ramón waterfall or kayaking in the Río Istian, just to name two. We hope to welcome you back in the future so you can enjoy these wonderful experiences after all.

I had a good experience in this listing. Everything was in line with the description and photos. Communication was seamless and simple right from the start. He was very friendly, always attentive and willing to collaborate in everything you need.

Tuve una buena experiencia en este alojamiento. Todo coincidía con la descripción y las fotografías. La comunicación fue fluida y sencilla desde el principio. Fue muy amable, siempre atento y dispuesto a colaborar en todo lo necesario.

The house is not that bad but very unpractical structure, upstairs outside, with a bathroom outside, no closets, no friendly furnitures: some paintings, flowers or decorations need it.  We didn’t use the pool, also needs some clean up. The worst part was the kitchen:  dirty inside the drawers, smell to cockroaches,  no extractor fan, knifes need to be shark. It looks like this house was designated to be a restaurant or something different to a house. In the other hand, hosts were very attendant, they were available all the time. Checking IDs or passports (taking pictures) at the check in was also uncountable for me. I already did it with Airbnb. The same check at the check out was also a little uncomfortable.  To get there is not that easy, I was very tired driving. Let’s say the house has one bathroom, because the other outside, it’s not functional.  The house, in general, needs a little bit of love.

I must start by saying the service by Erik the property manager was outstanding. He was very responsive and arranged taxis to and from the villa, as well as moto rentals (which you will absolutely need to explore the island). Layout of the villa was quirky, kitchen and potable water are on the 2nd level while all bedrooms as well as the only indoor bathroom are on the 1st level. The villa is set back from the road and delivers fantastic views, as does the restaurant directly up the hill. That restaurant is part of a hotel, but it’s without a doubt the closest food option. If you’re looking for walkability, this isn’t the place for you. If you’re looking for a peaceful getaway with plenty of space, I recommend this stay.

The home is tucked off the main road 2 kilometres on gravel road. The view of the lake and surrounding area was great. We were lucky enough to have a small group of howler monkeys and green parrots visit the property in the morning.  We also had a great time at a local rodeo watching the local cowboys ride the bulls.

My fiance and I stayed here for about a week, and we thought it was great! The view really is awesome - our favorite thing about the place was the outdoor space on the upper level, and just hanging out in the hammocks. The plunge pool is wild. I don't know anywhere else you could even get away with building something like that...we enjoyed it a lot! We felt very comfortable and safe the whole time, and Eric really helped make our trip a success. Eric takes great care of the property, and he always got back to us right away if we had a question. He helped us with activities and even arranging our ferry trip back to the mainland. This was our first time in Nicaragua, and I don't think our trip would have been the same without him! If you are interested in the kiteboarding school on Ometepe, it is about a 15 minute drive away. Convenient to a lot of things, and there are great places to eat close by. We would come back.

The villa has stunning views of Conception Volcano from the rooftop, and the host was very helpful, assisting with ATVs and laundry. However, we were disappointed given the high cost. Upon arrival, it was 34°C outside, but the AC only worked in one room. The host explained that all units would only function if set between 24–26°C, which isn’t ideal for a 3-bedroom villa with 5–6 guests. The common area lacked AC, and most windows had no bug nets, making it hard to cool down. There’s only 1 internal bathroom for 6 guests, which is clearly insufficient. The kitchen is on a hot rooftop with two wasp nests nearby. The hot tub is on a separate platform, requiring a climb up three stories on a questionable staircase. Despite the large square footage, the layout is inefficient — one bathroom, no fridge near the rooms, and AC issues. The villa is also remote, with a 15-min drive down a dirt road to reach the main spots. While the host was great, the villa’s setup and comfort didn’t match cost.

Hi Akash, thank you for your review. I’m glad you enjoyed the rooftop area with its great views. We’re sorry about the ACs. We’re located on an undeveloped island where the electricity voltage is not always stable. That’s why we run on a solar system, except for the ACs. During your stay, the voltage of the grid power dropped to 81 volts, which was not enough to run all three ACs at the same time. We understand this is very inconvenient, but it’s out of our hands—that’s life on an island like Ometepe... All the windows have mosquito nets, and we have two bathrooms—we showed you both. The villa is exactly as described in the advertisement with the photos. Sorry it didn't meet your expectations.

If you are visiting Ometepe island this Villa is absolutely the best place to stay! Watching the sun set with a view of the volcano while laying in a hammock is an experience you will not soon forget. The property was extremely clean and we had absolutely everything we needed. The property manager Eric helped us set up cabs, ATV's and anything we wanted throughout our stay. Will definitely book again if we travel to the island!

Hi Sasha, thank you so much for your positive review. We hope to welcome you once again in the future.

Very nice quiet and peaceful getaway. My family stayed for 2 nights and it had everything that we needed for our trip. Looked like the photos and the top floor especially was great for coffee in the morning and games in the evening. I wish the hot tub was working but not bad as a plunge pool either. Erik was a great host also.

Hi Jim, thank you so much for your positive review. We hope to welcome you once again in the future!

this place is amazing. it is quiet, off the beaten path, but close enough (for us) to some restaurants. Rudmer and Erik were fantastic and helpful. The photos of this place do not do it justice. this place is very spacious. we were amazed and the space that we had. This is not a place for those who want to be in the middle of the action. But the action is close enough for us and we loved the serenity.

Hi Doug, thank you so much for your positive review. We hope to welcome you once again in the future!

Lovely stay at the beautiful Villa. Very good communication with Erick throughout our stay. Very clean. Wonderful terrace!

Beau séjour dans la magnifique Villa. Très bonne communication avec Erick pendant tout notre séjour. Très propre. Magnifique terrasse !

Erik was amazing, he described the island and directed us to some beautiful locations. We will be back

Wonderful stay! Rudmer and Erik the manager were very helpful. We enjoyed the location, close to the lake, beautiful sunsets, hike to waterful, lots monkeys nearby, good food options. Especially appreciate that Erik arranged breakfast for us and gave excellent recommendations for things to do. House was perfect size for 3 couples and a baby. All in all great place and we would love to return. Thanks!

Great place at a great price. The upstairs area was fantastic to watch for monkeys and birds. Very peaceful and comfortable.

Excellent accommodation 🙏🏻 Very attentive to help with whatever you need during your stay 👏

Excelente alojamiento 🙏🏻 Muy atentos para asistirte en lo que necesiten en tu estancia 👏

Very nice home on Ometepe.  AC worked great in all the bedrooms.  Very close to the San Ramon waterfall.  We did the hike and would recommend (It definitely gets tough towards the end, but our 4 year old and 7 year old were able to complete it).  Great breeze on the sitting area on the upper level with 2 hammocks and nice seating.  Several good restaurant recommendations from the host that are about 15 minutes away.  Decent sized grocery is also about 15 minutes away, as well as a small store by the house.  Would definitely recommend.

The house is beautiful, it has everything you need, but on the first day we could not use A/C because the "solar power batteries, they did not charge enough during the day" was Erick's explanation, after that in the kitchen we found a small mouse that was captured by Erick with a mousetrap on the same day, Erick was an excellent host and gave us everything we needed to feel comfortable, unfortunately the last 2KM are a ballast street and access in a Sedan type vehicle is a little complex and the car is mistreated a lot, I know this is not his fault, but it would be good to indicate it before we arrived to be prepared in a rental vehicle or something similar, Erick is an excellent person and very kind, he helped us in everything we need.

La casa es hermosa, tiene todo lo necesario, pero el primer día no pudimos usar A/C porque las "baterías de la alimentación solar, no cargaron lo suficiente durante el día" fue la explicación de Erick, luego de eso en la cocina encontramos un pequeño ratón que fue capturado por Erick con una ratonera el mismo día, Erick fue un excelente anfitrión y nos dio todo lo necesario para sentirnos cómodos, lastimosamente los ultimos 2KM son calle de lastre y el acceso en vehiculo tipo Sedán es un poco complejo y se maltrata mucho el carro, se que esto no es su culpa, pero sería bueno indicarlo antes de llegar para ir preparado en un vehiculo de alquiler o algo similar, Erick es una excelente persona y muy amable, nos ayudó en todo lo que necesitamos.

Beautiful house , beautiful view and perfect! A lot of reviews commented on the kitchen being upstairs , but that is the place you want to spend all your time so we loved it. Erik was super attentive, respectful of our space , and responded quickly to all of our questions. The last 2.7 km drive is dirt road , but we made it fine in a Toyota Yaris , so don’t let it deter you. The house and the view are worth the trip .

Very nice place, a  bit remote so I would recommend having a car. Jason met us at the house and he was a great help. He guided us up Volcan Concepcion. The place is spacious and very clean, with howler monkeys coming right up to the deck.  I would stay here again.

The property was amazing and the location was perfect for 6 adults traveling to Ometepe for a wedding. Rudmer was wonderful and flexible with our change requests. Would stay here again!

I had an amazing stay, From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and at home. The check-in process was smooth, and the space was exactly as described—clean, cozy, and with all the amenities I needed for a comfortable stay. The location was perfect, close to restaurants, parks, tourist spots, making it easy to explore the area. The view from the balcony was stunning, especially at sunset! The host was incredibly responsive and went above and beyond to make sure I had everything I needed. They provided great local tips and were always quick to respond to any questions I had. Overall, this stay exceeded my expectations, and I would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting the area. I can’t wait to come back!

We were 6 guests and loved our stay. The place was just beautiful with a breathtaking view! This is the first time we go to an airbnb and we answer our questions so quickly. The response time was incredibly fast. We're going back next year!

Nous étions 6 voyageurs et nous avons adoré notre séjour. L’endroit était tout simplement magnifique avec une vue à couper le souffle! C’est la première fois que nous allons dans un airbnb et qu’on repond aussi rapidement à nos questions. Le temps de réponse était incroyablement rapide. Nous y retournons l’an prochain!

Rudmer and Kimberley are a great couple! Their accommodation is perfect for relaxation and great views. There are a few good options for dinner and shopping in walking distance of the villa. Erik, the facility manager, was good as gold. He helped us out with arranging an ATV and fuel. The kitchen area(s) could do with a little TLC though.

We loved the place, the house is so beautiful and the view it’s amazing, we enjoy to much at the pool, rooms are perfect and the host Rudmer it’s the best he did everything to make our stay the best in Ometepe, we definitely will be there again.

I loved the house, quiet place and the very friendly hosts!! Super recommended!

Me encantó la casa, lugar tranquilo y los anfitriones muy amables!! Súper recomendado!

The place is a beautiful  compound. Cant get enough of that roof terrace. Good wifi coverage, I was able to continue working and having my zoom meetings. Property has solar power.  The road  does get a bit unfriendly near the end. Would definitely stay there again!

A very nice and well cared for property, the host is excellent always pending, we would come back

Una propiedad muy bonita y bien cuidad, el anfitrión excelente siempre pendiente, volveriamos

Amazing views! Close to San Rafael waterfall.

Erick was a great host. Great location,  security and service. breakfast was worth purchasing. very cozy for a family. The view , was beautiful.

Absolutely stunning. 10/10 would recommend! Amazing sunset views. Greeted with smiles!

Great location. Somewhat strange structure and layout with kitchen up outside stairs on deck. Not very comfortable. Pictures show the view which is beautiful but the accommodation itself was not very attractive. All in all was ok but I wouldn’t go back.

This house is spectacular. Rudmer and Erik are very responsive and super helpful. Erik was able to help answer all the questions we had and provide us with great ideas for how to best enjoy the island. We highly recommend!

The place is stunning and perfect for those looking for quiet and disconnection The host is kind and charming

המקום מהמם ומושלם למי שמחפש שקט וניתוק המארח אדיב ומקסים

The house has stunning views and a lovely garden with many butterflies. The house itself is not very cozy and has an illogical layout . It was super nice that the host Erik was so nice and helpful. What was annoying is that the house turned out to be much more expensive after booking because you also had to pay per person. As a result, the price doubled.

Het huis heeft prachtig uitzicht en een mooie tuin met veel vlinders. Het huis zelf is niet erg sfeervol en heeft een onlogische indeling . Het was super fijn dat de gastheer Erik zo aardig en behulpzaam was. Wat wel vervelend was, is dat het huis na boeken veel duurder bleek te zijn omdat je ook per persoon bij moest betalen. Waardoor de prijs verdubbelde.

Beste Ingrid, je had een boeking gedaan voor 1 persoon terwijl je met een groep van 8 mensen op reis was. Airbnb geeft altijd de juiste prijs weer, maar dan moet je wel de juiste gegevens invoeren. In ons gesprek had je aangegeven dat je onze accommodatie een beetje overhaast geboekt had en dat je voortaan beter op zal letten bij het reserveren. Desondanks geef je ons toch een slechte review, dat vind ik erg jammer aangezien wij ons altijd 100% inzetten om onze gasten blij te maken. De indeling is precies zo als beschreven in de advertentie, dat heb je wegens je haast waarschijnlijk niet goed bekeken van te voren. We hebben daar nog nooit klachten over gehad. Alles wordt duidelijk omgeschreven en de foto’s spreken voor zich. Omdat je te snel geboekt hebt, de advertentie niet goed gelezen hebt en het aantal gasten verkeerd hebt ingevoerd krijgen wij nu een slechte review van je. Ik vind dat niet netjes van je tegen Ingrid.

This beautiful home was everything! I couldn’t be more happy! From the house accommodations, view including monkeys , and the caretaker Erik we wouldn’t have changed this for the world 💖 p.s it’s conveniently close to playa mango and Ojo de Agua the best place on the island in my opinion ( Volcanic spring water)

Easily one of the best places I've ever stayed. The place is clean and well kept. There was a little difficulty finding the place because I lost signal as we got 4 minutes away. It is on the trail after the road ends. It does get a little bumpy before you arrive, but once you see the animals painted on the walls of the property perimeter,  you're there. The place itself is spectacular. It could easily sleep 8 guests. The place has several floors with great amenities. We enjoyed the terrace. There's a plethora of wild life like butterflies in the garden, howler monkeys in the trees, and an unidentified bird. We loved our stay here.

Excellent place, cozy , quiet , where you can be filled with peace and be in contact with nature … Rudmer and Erick are very friendly and attentive, excellent hosts🔝… take into account that during their stay they will have to climb steps many times😁…

Excelente lugar, acogedor , tranquilo , donde te puedes llenar de paz y estar en contacto con la naturaleza … Rudmer y Erick muy amables y atentos, excelentes anfitriones 🔝… tomar en cuenta que durante su estadía deberán subir muchas veces escalones 😁…

This home was so relaxing! Erik was such a great host! He provided so much useful information about the area and was always available and attentive to any of our needs. The house had beautiful views, however being multilevel, there are a lot of stairs that could be a challenge to anyone with any impairments. Overall, we felt very comfortable and enjoyed our stay greatly!

Villa Ometepe was just what we needed for our group of six. Erick the co-host was super friendly and responsive, he messaged immediately after we completed the reservation, and was responsive to our messages throughout the day as we updated him on our arrival time. He met us in person and walked us through the house and amenities, Erick's son stays overnight in a separate apartment in the property, this made us feel very safe as we were a group of women not familiar with the area. The house is great, air conditioner works perfectly in all three rooms, there is hot water and a well equipped kitchen. The terrace is great and breezy, we almost felt asleep up there. The cherry on the top was that after a long day of hiking one of the volcanoes, Erick greeted us with cold beers (Toñas) for our entire group, just what we needed!! Thank you Erick (and Rudmer) for your hospitality, you made us feel at home even though our say was very short. Can't wait to come back

Spectacular place and view... erick responds quickly very courteous... we had a 25 hour breakdown so the air conditioned didn't work but the house is solar energy so I'm still working by chance ... to know that the kitchen, the bedrooms and the pool are different floors so not suitable for someone with difficulties or young children...really a magical place I recommend

Endroit et vue spectaculaire… erick repond rapidement tres courtois… nous avons eu une panne de 25 heure donc les airs climatisés ne fonctionnait pas mais la maison est a energie solaire donc me reste fonctionnait par chance … a savoir que la cuisine les chambre et la piscine son a des niveaux d’etage différent donc non adapté pour quelqu’un avec des difficultés ou jeune enfant…vraiment un endroit magique je recommande

Youd have a challenge findimg similar accommodation on Ometepe. Clean, modern and well equipped. Rudmer and Erik  make a great team.

We really liked Rudmer’s place! Erik was also helpful during our stay. We absolutely loved the island! The area was beautiful, and there were some areas around driving distance that were really cool. The view from the villa is beautiful. You can hear nature around you from all rooms, and it is incredibly peaceful. The TV in the living room was very convenient. If staying here, we highly recommend renting a car, as some of the roads do not have solid ground, and a lot of places are not walking distance. The villa can get very hot if the windows are closed, and the fan in the living room can only blow so much air. The refrigerator, cups, and kitchen are located on a different floor from the main area, so you will technically need to go outside to access it. A proper grocery store cannot be found unless you go back to the Moyogalpa area, which is about an hour drive. It is highly encouraged to buy soft drinks, paper towels, and other common necessities before leaving the port.

This place was amazing! I stayed for 7 nights! Very clean, spacious, and very safe! One of the best places to stay in Ometepe. Erik was so amazing and helpful. He taught us a lot about the local culture and we went to his wife’s restaurant a few times all around a great experience! Erick also coordinated a lot of the activities that we did in Ometepe, which was really helpful. The Airbnb was so great, my now fiancé even proposed to me at the Villa!!! During sunset! Oh, and to top it all off, we saw monkeys in the yard a few times!

This is the second time I return to this location . Like the first time we had a great time. I highly recommend the rental and if you’re thinking of staying here don’t hesitate. The attention of the caretaker is bar none the best . The house is clean  and well taken care of

Erik is a very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful host. The pool at the top of the tower has a stunning view of the volcano and lake. Beautiful property.

A wonderful place to stay with friends or family while exploring Ometepe. Stunning views of the water and Concepcion Volcano throughout the day but even more beautiful at sunset. Erik, the groundskeeper was always available to assist and helped us have a great visit. We enjoyed the breakfast add-on with our stay along a tasty curry dinner. We all would’ve extended the stay if we had more time available!

Loved everything about Rudmers villa. The peacful  location with speactular views  of the volcano and ocean. High rise plunge pool was refreshing. We heard howler monkeys several times. Erik was so friendly and helpful with recommendations and booked Van ride with Eddie from the ferry ; motorbikes and ATV; kayaking the river was awesome. Rosa was a great cook : traditional Nica breakfast on morning and omelets the next morning. Their Jason helped too. We loved our stay for group of 6 adults . Hope to come again and highly recommend to anyone wanting to experience Omatepe with no hassles

The house is very large and located in a quiet neighborhood. However, there is only one bathroom in the house for 3 rooms and a second outdoor bathroom is very small and not in good condition. Otherwise, everything was best. We received extensive information from Rudmer before check-in and were very nicely welcomed and looked after by Erik. We felt comfortable.

Das Haus ist sehr gross und in einer ruhigen Gegend gelegen. Im Haus ist fuer 3 Zimmer allerdings nur ein Bad  vorhanden und ein zweites Aussenbad ist sehr klein und nicht in gutem Zustand.Sonst war alles Besten. Wir bekamen von Rudmer vor dem Check-in umfangreiche Infos und wurden von Erik sehr nett empfangen und betreut. Wir haben uns wohl gefuehlt.

Our stay was wunderful, enhanced by the stunning balcony view. Witnessing a breathtaking sunset and observing a family of monkeys pass by near the pool added to the unique experience.

Beautiful spot.  Suggest having some coffee and tea especially for late arrivals.  Our host Erik was fantastic.  He arranged for quads and transportation to and from the ferry and was extremely obliging and proud of the grounds and house.

The host is very helpful and responsive with great local recommendations and assisted with arranging transportation/rentals. Peaceful home within the nature of Ometepe!

Our stay in Villa Ometepe was amazing. We were given detailed instructions how to get to the accommodation. Erik was really friendly host, spoke good english (if needed) and helped us with everything we needed and gave us a lot of recommendations what to do on the island. The villa looked exactly like described and on pictures (comfortable beds, nice 'living room' on the porch where to enjoy the sunset or spend time together with familiy/friends. Our whole family enjoyed our stay a lot. Definitely will be back!

Rudmer was very accommodating-he provided a list of local activities.  The home was peaceful, relatively new, and had a beautiful yard.  Great place to stay!
