Jungalow Life, minutes away from playa Remanso - Houses for Rent in San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua

Debbie (and Uriel) were great and attentive hosts. Debbie was quick to respond to our last-minute booking as our family decided to extend our stay in beautiful SJDS. The house was comfy, clean, and had all the amenities we were looking for. Short (5 min) drive to Playa Remanso, 10 min to San Juan del Sur, about 20 min to Playa Hermosa - great location! Also, our meals on the balcony were the most relaxing way to start and end our days. Overall, it was a great stay & we highly recommend!

Beautiful, pleasant accommodation, comfortable size room, functional in beautiful natural decor. Hosts, Debbie and Bastin, very concerned with the comfort and well-being of their tenants.

Logement beau, agréable, pièce de taille confortable, fonctionnel dans une décor naturel magnifique. Hôtes, Debbie et Bastin, très soucieux du confort et du bien-être de leurs locataires.

Close proximity to beaches and town.  Back porch has peaceful valley hillside view.  Very clean inside and A/Cs work great.  Fully furnished kitchen.

We spent a month at Debbie's place and it was great. We loved the location, location, energy and kittens! I highly recommend this place especially for people who want to be in touch with nature. We only took away good memories!

Pasamos un mes en casa de Debbie y fue genial. Nos encantó el lugar, la ubicación, la energía y los gatitos! Recomiendo mucho este lugar sobretodo para gente que quiere estar en contacto con la naturaleza. Nos llevamos solo buenos recuerdos!

Great location close to beach and town! Good for bird watching, I'd definitely come back.

The place is highly recommended. It is modern, clean, cozy and a great location to explore the beaches by car and drive into San Juan. The Holändian host couple are super friendly and helpful. Although they live downstairs in the house, you can't get anything from each other (also a separate entrance, etc.). Great house!

Die Unterkunft ist total zu empfehlen. Sie ist modern, sauber, gemütlich und einer einer super Lage um die Strände mit dem Auto zu erkunden sowie nach San Juan reinzufahren. Das holändische Gastgeberpaar ist super freundlich und hilfsbereit. Obwohl sie unten im Haus wohnen bekommt man nichts voneinander mit (außerdem separater Eingang etc). Tolles Haus!

Great place to stay right next to remanso beach which is perfect for those who want to surf. Clean comfortable and very peaceful would definitely recommend and use again. Debbie communicated will and check was smooth.

We had such a lovely stay at Debbie's place. We booked last minute and had a very quick answer from the host. She was excellent at communicating all the details and helped us with all our questions and requests. The house was very lean, and the kitchen was well equipped, maybe just missing a larger wooden cutting board and a compost for organic trash. The rooms were very big and the beds super comfortable. I would highly recommend having a 4x4 to get to the place because the dirt road can be challenging to drive (make sure your hand bake and your lights works!). We overall loved our stay and would recommend it!

Debbie is very friendly and accommodating. The place is a quiet place with beautiful views perfect getaway from the busy towns .

Debbie’s place was an absolute gem! We got so lucky to find this spot by Remanso beach on our return to San Juan del Sur! The apartment is nestled in the jungle so you have the beautiful sounds from nature and the breathtaking views! The location was honestly perfect, with its proximity to Remanso (which in our opinion was the best beach- perfect spot for smooth waves) and a short drive to the town. If you have a car, you can also go spend the day in Hermosa or explore the other beach spots like Maderas and Majagual (which was gorgeous). The groundskeeper, Uriël, was so helpful and such a delight. Thank you, we enjoyed our stay so much!

Higly recommanded. One of our favorite place in south now! Definitly. Perfect for our family Quiet, nature, amazing host Perfect beach 5 minutes 10 minutes to san juan Imposible to cumplain Congrats to debhie and his husband, thats airbnb!!!

Thanks so much for your kind words! We loved having you stay with us. Hasta luego & take care!

This place is amazing. The house where we stayed was wonderful, super clean, it had everything we needed. Debbie wasn't home but her husband was always around and in touch. He answered our messages super fast and he went beyond his job. I was walking alone at noon when a man strangled me and tried to harass me. When Bastin heard about it he went right away to the police station to offer help. I will always be grateful for that. I recommend women not to walk alone in those areas.

Hi Mariana, we are so sorry for what happened to you during your time in Nicaragua. We were glad to be able to assist and we are happy to hear you liked the house so much!

The house is very nice, quite cozy. The dirt road to the house is not bad. It is passable for a seddan. The location is about 10 minutes from San Juan del Sur.

La casa es muy Bonita bastante acogedora, el camino de tierra hacia la casa no está mal es pasable para un seddan. La ubicación está como a 10 minutos de San Juan del sur.

A beautiful, quiet space, the freshness of the air and birds singing make it a beautiful space for people looking to be away from the noise of the village, the amazing stars and the nearby beach is a treasure. Debbie is super attentive and relaxing. I'm sure I'll be back.

Un espacio hermoso, tranquilo, la frescura del aire y el canto de los pájaros lo hacen un espacio hermoso para las personas que buscan estar lejos del ruido del pueblo, las estrellas increíbles y la playa cercana es un tesoro. Debbie super atenta y relajada. Seguro vuelvo.

Bastin and Debbie s place was an amazing experience . They are always one click away , and also very close in the property . They are a very nice couple and always willing to help with anything . the house is clean ,,with very nice details , the kitchen has all you need to cook whatever you want. The front porch is amazing full of birds , and the moises of the jungle, very peaceful environment . Also there is a gardener in the premises for a y questions you may have . They have great beds , and very spacious bathrooms. i went with my family and will come back for sure . it was a great choice to spend  new years eve because you could choose peaceful mountain and the beaches were 10 min away also .A GREAT CHOICE .

Thank you Hilda! We’re happy that you enjoyed our place so much. It was our pleasure to have you stay with us. Hasta luego!

What a great find. Beautiful house, wonderful view, lush surroundings, and close to the beach and town. Quiet and peaceful. House was so clean and very comfortable. Plenty of light and kitchen was well equipped. Bastin and Debbie are excellent hosts. I wish I could have stayed longer and I wish I could give them more than 5 stars! Highly recommended. Thank you Bastin and Debbie.

Everything was so great at Bastin and Debby their place. It is beautiful and clean. The surroundings are breath taking. In the nature, but still close to San Juan del Sur. We had an amazing time and we highly recommend this place.

We had a great time at this location. It's beautifully located in the mountains of San Juan del Sur, but close enough to the city for grocery shopping or nightlife. Bastin and Debby were wonderful at welcoming us. The house is clean, spacious, and with wonderful rustic, yet modern touches. Beds are super comfortable; much more than many hotels we've stayed recently. We're planning on coming back soon.

Hi Bayardo, Thank you for your kind words! It was a pleasure to host you and we are looking forward to welcome you back :)

The place does not have a pool, according to the host you can make use of the pool at the nearby Black Monkey restaurant, but you have to consume something from the restaurant to be able to use it. In addition, the street is in terrible condition, which makes it difficult to access cars. It is annoying that we are told that it is necessary the use of a 4x4 car after booking.

El lugar no cuenta con piscina, según el anfitrión se puede hacer uso de la piscina del restaurante cercano Black Monkey, pero hay que consumir algo del restaurante para poder utilizarla. Además la calle está en pésimas condiciones lo cual dificulta el acceso para automóviles. Es molesto que se nos indique que es necesario el uso de un carro 4x4 después de haber hecho la reserva.

Hola Josselyn, Lo siento que no estaba claro el descripción en el foto que el uso de la piscina es para clientes del restaurante. Gracias por tú comentario. Vamos a quitar el foto de la piscina en el listing. También me siento que el camino fuera decepcionante. Recomendamos 4 x 4 entre mayo y noviembre en el descripción del listing. Que le vaya muy bien, saludos Bastin y Debbie

A very beautiful place, excellent service and hospitality. Definitely a place to go back and recommend 100%

Un lugar muy hermoso, excelente atención y hospitalidad. Definitivamente un lugar para regresar recomendando 100 %

Muchas gracias Luis Javier. Fue un placer tenerles. Esperamos que vuelven un día. Hasta luego!

Gracias por el review. Fue un placer tenerles.

We only stayed for one night at Debbie & Bastin's Jungalow, since there was no surf unfortunately. We would defintely recommend it if you wanna stay away from San Juan del Sur and rather stay in a more quiet place surrounded by nature. It's just outside SJDS and nearby some of the best beaches and surfpots around. We loved the set up of the house, perfect for two couples travelling or just two friends like us.

Thank you for the good review Savas. We are happy to hear you enjoyed the house. Hopefully we will see you back and you have more luck with the surf!  Saludos,  Bastin

The jungalow was a great place to spend our vacation. Bastin and Debbie were super responsive to our messages prior to our arrival (and I sent quite a few since I was travelling with my toddler) and they continued to be great hosts after our arrival. The view is fantastic and I loved having morning coffee on the large patio. The place was spotless and very comfortable. I did find it hot sleeping at night but I think we just weren’t lucky with the great breeze others mentioned (also I’m overly sensitive to heat). The pool at the black monkey was great and the restaurant was delicious. Overall this is a little gem just outside the city of SJDS that gives the best of both worlds for those looking for a more secluded spot with the ability to still access the town for exploring.

Hi Alicia,  Thank you for your review. We are happy to hear you had such a great time. Unfortunately in May there is less breeze than other months. We hope to see you back!  Saludos,  Bastin and Debbie

Found this place while looking for a nice getaway from the noise of town, and got just that. The property was outstanding, full of the sounds and colors of Nicaragua. Loved watching for birds and drinking coffee on the balcony, not to mention the exceptional kindness and hospitality from our host. Would return!

Thanks Ethan, we loved having you stay with us. It was a pleasure to meet you and we would love to welcome you back. We hope you had good time on Ometepe!

Best setup we have had yet, for sure home away from home.  Spotlessly clean everything is better than described including the hospitality.   Would stay a month if we had the time and definitely will return.   Thanks Bastian and Debbie!

Thanks! We loved having you guys staying with us. It was nice chatting. Take care and please come back when you return to Nicaragua. Adios!

This is a very welcoming and clean home. Both Bastin and Debbie were on top of communication. Also, willing to adjust for our late arrival time. It’s a very comfortable, cozy, and well designed home. Reasonable pricing as well. Our party of 5 truly enjoyed staying at the Jungalow! Thank you for everything Bastin & Debbie 😊

Thanks Wendy and friends! It was nice meeting all of you and a pleasure to have you. Hasta luego, saludos from the Jungalow

The place is specular, the location is perfect for getting to know the different beaches, away from the hustle and bustle of downtown but at the same time very close by car. I would definitely visit this place again.👌😁

El lugar es especular, la ubicación es perfecta para conocer las diferentes playas, lejos del bullicio del centro pero a la vez muy cerca en carro. Volvería a visitar este lugar sin duda.👌😁

Que bueno Maria que disfrutaron tu tiempo en el Jungalow y en San Juan mucho. Esperamos que volvieron un día. Que le vayan bien. Saludos Bastin y Debbie

Bastin and Debbie's Airbnb was an excellent find in San Juan Del Sur! The listing was super clean and bright. The outside patio was spacious and we loved spending the mornings there. Bastin and Debbie were amazing hosts and they helped us find some good places to visit and eat. The restaurant/ pool were close to the apartment. Definitely get the Irish stew if you go. The WIFI was fast enough for working online as well. We'll definitely stay here again if we come back to San Juan Del Sur.

Totally tranquil, laid back place to stay with fabulous views. Nestled in the mountain with mind blowing birds (pygmy owls, woodpeckers, birds of all colours visiting all day). Howler monkeys, squirrels, iguanas....you will see and hear them all the time. Huge panoramic balcony.  Bastin and Debbie are a lovely dutch couple who make you feel very welcome. Highly recommended.

Thank you for the nice words Joanna and Terry. We are really happy you enjoyed your stay so much with us and we hope to see you come back. Saludos!

Modern house, new, well equipped.  Very nice host.  Located a 10-minute drive from the city, very quiet in nature.  Pool is a pleasant 2-minute drive, closed on Wednesdays only.  We were with family and enjoyed the calm of this house.

Maison moderne, neuve, bien équipée.  Hote tres gentille.  Situé a 10 minutes en auto de la ville, très tranquille dans la nature.  Piscine a 2 minutes d'auto très agréable, fermé le mercredi seulement.  Nous étions en famille et nous avons apprécié le calme de cette maison.

Thank you for staying with us. We're glad you enjoyed your stay. Nice meeting your family! Take care. Saludos from the Jungalow

couldnt have asked for anything more! this hidden and quiet house has it all. its fully equipped, quality of the house and the interior is more than beautiful. you will feel like in a nicaraguan jungle boutique-residence. Deborah was very helpful and the communication was perfect. beds are very comfortable, tv has even netflix connection, wifi runs perfect, kitchen is fully equipped, hot water shower, parking space and even a nice pool with free access close by. we can highly reccomand this place! thx for everything!

Thank you so much! We're glad you had a great stay with us. Enjoy your travels, adios!

Muchas gracias Adriana. Estamos feliz que disfrutaron tanto la casa y su tiempo en San Juan del Sur!

The Jungalow is built with many lovely details. Its neighborhood is quiet. We had a very pleasant stay!

Thank you Rebecca. We are happy to hear you had such a good time staying with us. Enjoy the rest of your trip!

This was for sure the best place in San juan del sur. Beautiful apartments with wonderful view of the nature, was always clean and you even had netflix! Close to the beaches and popular Hermosa beach was just a 15 minute drive away. Short ride to central restaurants and bars in san juan del sur. Bastin and Debbie were great hosts and if you have any concerns or just want a local tip they will always help you out. Couldn't ask for better hospitality. We ended up extending our stay because we loved it so much. This place really made our stay in Nicaragua special. Thanks guys!

Hi Fiorella and Pontus, thank you for your nice review! It was very nice to meet you and we hope to see you back!
