2BR loft in San Juan del Sur

Loft with Private Pool & Bay View Near Downtown 5 - Villas for Rent in San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua

Great place to stay! We really enjoyed the convenience of having a pool right on the balcony after a long day at the beach. The staff was on point taking care of the place or anything that came up. Rosi was also very easy to work with when we had to make some last minute changes to our stay. Thanks again Rosi! Would definitely stay again!

We had a great stay at Rosi's place. The property is beautiful, well maintained, and perfect for a relaxing getaway. Rosi was an attentive and accommodating host. Highly recommended!

The place was amazing. A private villa, perfect for a couple getaway or a small family. The view from the private pool is impressive. It is also a short drive away from the town or any of the nearby beaches. We loved it!

A great place to enjoy in San Juan del Sur. Highly recommended if you want a quiet space with a beautiful view of the bay. The room is comfortable and has all the essentials. It's nice to have blackout curtains. Rosi, Thank you......

I was looking for a place to work remotely and it was perfect. Internet was always super fast and reliable.

This place was great! The water pressure was amazing and the hot water showers was one of our favorite parts! The button for the curtain was tricky to find but once we found the controls on the wall near the bed it was no problem! The power did go off in the area a few times, I just had to wake up to turn the AC back on. It got pretty warm without the AC. Overall a really great place to stay!! The kitchen is fully furnished so we cooked all of our meals.

Santa Cruz Lofts are beautiful, clean, nice location, can get there with any car type, amazing host (Rosi), great views, cozy, great value and price. I have stayed in many houses and hotels in san juan, and I can highly recommend this one. really enjoyed it.

a very comfortable space with a lovely view

Very nice location! We had a great stay! Would highly recommend

Très bel emplacement! Nous avons passer un super beau séjour! Je le recommande fortement

What a wonderful stay! We loved the space. The pool is fun as you just climb through the door of the living room and into the pool. Everything was neat, clean and modern. We recommend staying here and going into town for drinks, food and a great vibe.

Loved our time here, perfect location. The hill is steep, we knew that going in to it and is a great way to get a workout in on vacation! We also rented a motorcycle and had no issues getting up the hill and feeling safe with it parked in the lot. The staff were very friendly and kept everything very clean. The view was incredible and being able to cool off in the pool was a huge bonus. Rosi was extremely professional and quick to answer any questions I had. The information binder in the house was very helpful with dining recommendations and local activities. Thank you! We look forward to coming back.

Rosi was very nice and approachable . The loft is nice, comfortable and very central.

Rosi fue muy amable y accesible . El loft agradable, cómodo y muy céntrico.

We have stayed in many places in Central American and have been all over San Juan and Nicaragua. Rosi had all you would need. We loved the kitchen in this place. Everything was clean and well cared for she was very helpful. It is a steep hill but a safe quiet place very close to town!

I loved the pool, it was quite private for a townhouse. Clean. Very well stocked. Bed was quite firm. Thank you, we had a lovely week here.

We really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend it to anyone that wants a high quality villa that offers top notch services provided by Yessica (housekeeping) and pool maintenance (Ramon). The proximity to everything was perfect. There is definitely a reason Rosi is a Superhost. She and her team deserve a great rating. Friendly and super responsive. If and when we return to San Juan Del Sur we will definitely stay at Rosi’s again.

The stay was good, even if the view was impressive if the palm trees were trimmed, and the bunk room is super small with no air. Otherwise everything is fine!!

La estancia fue buena, aunque la vista huviera sido impresionante si recortaran las palmeras, y la habitación de las literas es super pequeña y sin aire. Por lo demas todo bien!!

A home as in the beautiful and clean pictures there is everything the hosts are available quickly for any problem Quiet location but a bit problematic need a car or taxis

בית כמו בתמונות יפה ונקי יש הכל המארחים זמינים מהר לכל בעיה מיקום שקט אבל קצת בעייתי צריך אוטו או מוניות

Sorry the out of town taxi didn’t know where to go and it was dark.  Great hosting you both!!!

We loved our stay at Rosi’s place. The house is lovely and the view of the ocean every morning was wonderful. It’s close to town but does require a walk up a steep hill (it’s way steeper than we expected).

I stayed with a friend in Rosi’s place for 3.5 weeks. It was exactly as pictured and Rosi was great at communicating. We had two other friends who arrived and we negotiated a fair price for the extra people. Wifi was good, we worked remote the entire time. There was only one day where the wifi out. The house keeper was extremely nice! And it was helpful to use her laundry services. We didn’t rent a vehicle and climbed the hill twice a day and it is no joke - a good vehicle is recommended if you aren’t open to sweating and huffing up that hill. 15 minute walk to centre of town. Beautiful property and really glad we chose it!

I am not sure what Jose is talking about, we had one incident when he left, he left two beach towels outside, we found one but not the other and since they were brand new i charged him $20 to replace the towel.  All in all he was a great guest so not sure whey the sulk.

We were one month in SJDS & thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Loft 5 Santa Cruz. Accomdations are beautifully appointed, immaculately clean, have almost all ammentities once would need for a long term stay. Rosi was very helpful & went out of her way to accomodate our requests. She even had the palm trees trimmed so we would have a view. Staff are friendly & especially respectful of privacy. We felt very safe & at home in both the loft grounds, & around town. There are no reclining chairs by the pool at Loft 5, so we lay on the pool deck. We do alot of reading, having coffee & generally hanging out at our place - not comfortable at the tiny bistro set. Some Lofts do have recliners. The hill is steep 45 degree incline. You WILL need a vehicle. It's a 10 min walk, 200 steps,but too steep to attempt many times a day, especially at the end of the day. We had to rent a motorbike (great for site seeing). We are 60+ & are fit. Some loft views are entirely blocked by trees now.

Amazing location right in town so you have the main beach and restaurants close by but not where u would go walk rent a atv,motorcycle or car and save urself the trouble of a steep paved hill. The pool was so amazing after a hot day atving or day surfing at the beach. And waking up to the view of the beach too was a nice touch. You feel extremely safe and the few blackouts that we had were very short the generator seems to kick in and rosi is very responsive and attentive to any questions or concerns ! thanks for the stay cant wait to be back.

really liked rosis place and she was super accommodating when something went wrong on my end with payment. very nice place, lovely showers and would happily stay again. not a negative but an FYI the view wasn't as clear as I was hoping, the pool doesn't get a huge amount of sunlight and it's a very steep walk up t the flat if you are planning on walking. would stay happily stay again.

The house is perfect for a long term stay. We felt at home there for 8 weeks. The well-equipped kitchen is great for cooking for yourself. Rosi was very responsive and helpful. I worked remotely, the internet is fast enough and very stable.

Das Haus ist perfekt für einen Langzeitaufenthalt. Wir haben uns dort 8 Wochen wie zu Hause gefühlt. Die gut ausgestattete Küche ist super um selbst zu kochen. Rosi hat schnell reagiert und war sehr hilfsbereit. Ich habe dort Remote gearbeitet, das Internet ist schnell genug dafür und sehr stabil.

The place is beautiful and just as described. Rosi was very responsive when we needed laundry to be done and had someone collect it. The house is up a VERY steep hill. We rented a motorcycle for the month we were there and it was the only way I would go up and down that hill multiple times a day. It read not an issue for us, but if you are not planning to rent a quad, motorcycle or car you may want to consider it. Good exercise tho! I would definitely stay here again, it was a great place to work remotely from and can highly recommend it

This is an awesome property with a communicative and helpful host! Rosi is great! She gave us recommendations when needed, helped us problem solve quickly when in a pinch and was flexible! The property has a stunning view of the harbor which was quite a great to wake up to each morning. The pool was a nice touch. It was always sparkling clean and super refreshing. The unit is stocked with pretty much everything you could need for a short or long term stay. The hill coming up to the unit is quite steep. It’s not unwalkable if you’re in shape. We walked up and down to get to town quite frequently during our month stay. We also used the recommended taxi service which was less than $10 round trip when we needed. It’s 5-7 mins walking to the marina and about 10-15 to town center. We would definitely stay here again!

Rosi is an incredible host. Responsive, conscientious, and kind. Had a great experience at this beautiful property!

The property is fantastic and Rosi is an amazing host! I would recommend this place to all.

Beautiful place , we had a great stay here. Spectacular views of the bay and was nice lounging by the pool. Has everything you need for a great vacation

This was our second time staying in one of Rosi’s lofts, and we plan to return many more times in the future. The frequent comments on Rosi’s AirBnb listings that highlight her top-notch communication and assistance during stays are accurate. She is extremely helpful. I’d recommend reading the book she has put together in the lofts, as it includes many useful tips. All the answers to the questions I had were in there. The view is unbeatable, and the private pool is a perfect reprieve from the heat. The staff are all lovely. It’s a beautiful place in a beautiful country. We highly recommend staying here.

An overall excellent experience and a decision you won’t regret! These lofts are AMAZING. My fiancé and I stayed here for 3 months (which flew by way too fast). If you’re reading this it’s important to know we were working full time US remote jobs while here and we cook(ed) 98% of our own meals at home. So, just some perspective. Rosi’s communication is phenomenal and was with us every step of the way. Before we arrived she helped us look into getting faster internet and was very accommodating. The internet did struggle at times, which is to be expected, but if we let Rosi know she was on it immediately and it usually got fixed super fast. If ever something needed to be fixed or looked at in our loft (infrequent and usually minor) she or someone on her team were at our door in a matter of hours if not minutes. The responsiveness is second to none. Having essentially a full time team looking after us was, uh, amazing. We wondered with such a long stay how we’d care for the pool and cleaning and so on. Turns out we didn’t need to do anything. Not mentioned in the listing, but a nice surprise - weekly cleaning inside, daily or regular pool cleaning, security, etc. Yessica (staff) wasn’t overly friendly, but I think she was just trying to be respectful of our privacy and nonetheless did a great job every time she cleaned (and washed our sheets and towels!!). We did have to buy a few things for the kitchen for our cooking needs and preferences, but otherwise the kitchen is fantastic and fully equipped. I will say the laundry wasn’t inside our unit and it was shared with another loft, which isn’t mentioned in the listing. Not the worst thing, but it wasn’t clear that it wouldn’t be in-unit until after we arrived and was sometimes locked when we needed it. I can’t say enough good things about our stay and everything Rosi and her team did for us. It’s clear that they care about our experience and they all made it world class. Oh, also, the hill. Haha! These lofts are up a massive hill that will have you out of breath every time you walk back. Not a complaint, just a fact. We actually liked the added exercise. One of our rental cars couldn’t actually make it up the hill so be sure to gun it at the bottom! It’s only 5-10 minutes walk to one end of town, another 5-10 to center or other end. Easily walkable and a car is not necessary unless you’re against walking a lot or plan to travel outside SJDS. This place was truly our home for 3 months and we’re very appreciative of Rosi and her team. There’s a GOOOD chance we’ll be back to the lofts in the future when we come back to look for a home of our own to buy. We loved it, we would stay again. You’ll love it too!

Great stay, would definitely recommend. Rosi was a great host and communication was really good definitely listen to her directions on how to get there over google maps it sends you a weird route. Really loved the house had everything I needed for a month stay. Amazing view of San Juan bay and close to the town center.

Great spot, with amazing views of the bay. Stayed here for just over a month with a friend and it was close to town but just far enough for some extra privacy. Both of us worked remote and didn’t have many issues, wifi got spotty sometimes, but that happens everywhere! Highly recommend and it really is as stunning as the pictures. Rosi is a 10/10 host, attentive and great at communicating/addressing any and all questions.

This spot is great. Rosi is a great communicator, and was attentive to our needs. We lived in this loft for a month. Hill to get to loft is steep, so if you’re staying here I’d recommend having a car, ATV, or UTV. There are power outages every so often, but Rosi typically was right on top of figuring out what was going on. Would 1000% recommend this place :)

Rosi’s place is STUNNING. Every inch of it is perfectly clean, brand new looking, and cozy. We loved it so much!!!!!!!!!! Rosi is a cheerful, kind host and we will be back!

Amazing Stay, had everything we could have possibly wanted

Rosi’s place is amazing! It was everything I expected and then some! Great location but definitely get a car as the hill is crazy steep. The house was beautiful and most importantly, SPOTLESS. 10/10 would stay again. Rosi was available for us when we needed her which was comforting. Thank you Rosi!!

Rosi places was beautiful with amazing views. Rosi was quick to respond and assist with all of our questions and concerns. Her staff is amazing and available when needed. We enjoyed the house and it was the highlight of our vacation at Nicaragua. Thanks Rosi !

Amazing place, location, and accuracy of description

Rosi's loft is very well designed and super comfortable. There are a lot of very thoughtful touches that made our stay such a relaxing and memorable one. It's clear that Rosi has a passion and understanding for what makes a superb short term accommodation experience.  Communication with Rosi was excellent and her staff were super efficient and almost invisible. Thanks again for a great stay!

This was our second stay at the lofts and we weren't disappointed.  Everything is accurately shown in the pictures and described.  Rosi and Yessica can't do enough for you and are the perfect hosts -- mostly invisible but immediately available if you need them.  The space is clean and comfortable. I enjoy walking through neighborhood to get to and from the loft and seeing kids playing soccer, riding bikes and having fun (mostly) without a cell phone or device!  There's always a smile from at least one neighbor.  There is also a woodworker which we watch craft a beautiful door.  If you stay at the lofts and need snacks or drinks, please support the local businesses at the bottom of the hill.  They are always appreciative. SJDS is a fantastic & friendly place.

The santa Cruz apartment was amazing. The view and amenities incredible. The design of the space was also really well done.  Rosi was attentive to our every need and the caretaker and cleaning lady did a great job.  Rosi even picked up the remote my toddler had squirreled away into our luggage after our stay. A wonderful place for a relaxing weekend!

Rosi has a list of everything you can possibly need to take full advantage of your trip. She answers calls immediately and everything you need is already in the home.

Beautiful loft! Great service and excellent location!
