As solid as it gets. Quiet area. I parked outside with no worries. There is a very friendly security guard at night. And the pool is legit. The unit was great. Cold AC and hot water. Clean. Good sized.

Quiet, pleasant place. It met all my expectations for amenities.

We enjoyed our stay at Amelia's. There was a small supermarket nearby, and a large one 10 minutes walk away. The centre of town ( Plaza Major) was also 10 minutes walking in the other direction. Amelia arranged our taxis on arrival and departure and she was always easy to reach. She also provides beach towels, perfect for visiting Lake Apoyo and for swimming in the pool in the complex. The unit could use a little TLC but that didn't detract from our visit. The AC and wifi worked well.

Fully furnished and functional apartment with a nice big pool. It was very comfortable and secure. there's a night time guard and it's in a quiet part of Granada, but still close to the center. Good value. Amelia was a great host. she usually responded in just a couple of minutes. I'd stay here again, and I did. I'd also recommend it to anyone visiting.

The place is very nice. It is a fully furnished and functional apartment with a big swimming pool. it's clean and secure with a guard on-site during the night time hours. It's close to the center about a 5 minute walk. But not too close because downtown can get noisy. I'd recommend this place to anyone coming to Granada, and I'd stay here again. The owner was always available and responded really fast when I needed help. I had a great stay.

Great month-long family stay! We loved our stay, the accommodation is very large. We have 4 children and we could have accommodated two other guests, no problem. Super functional kitchen, pleasant and kind neighbors. Walter is more than great, he is efficient and makes sure everything goes smoothly for us. The shared swimming pool is great too, we sometimes meet neighbors (expats, locals), but often we were alone. We heard and seen: howler monkeys, parrots, opossum, all kinds of birds. Well located in relation to the city and the seafront, it takes a car/motorcycle because a little far on foot (4.75 km), even if we did it a few times and it was a great experience. Bus stop at the bottom of the hill too. The climb is a little difficult by car (Toyota Yaris), but it worked for us in the dry season. Amélia responds super quickly and fixed a problem with the Jacuzzi in a few days. In short, we recommend it. We'll be back:)

You will love this hidden gem in Granada. Amelia is a very accommodating and if it is not in the condo, she will get it for you. Close to Central Park. You won’t be disappointed.

Almelia, the host, was kind and responsive. The pool and pool area was beautiful, once we found it. The coffee pot leaked. The shower handle fell off, even after it was repaired. There was no shampoo. We could not operate the television. There were ants. No instructions for use of tv and jacuzzi and directions to pool. Reviews were confusing as they applied to multiple units. Not quite the jungle setting we expected and no view of ocean as we expected.

We really enjoyed our stay at Millie's Place. Close enough to town but out of the way in the jungle. I think the house, community and experience was better than I expected. Great energy. A firm 10 out of 10, and a desire to return. Really comfy beds, big kitchen, perfect house for up to 4 people I would say. The house is in a wonderful setting with parrots, monkeys, jays and squirrels regular visitors. I even saw a toucan really close up, and lots of dogs around which we love. The local family who are the caretakers are just adorable. It's best if you have a vehicle.

Amelia is a great communicator. The hot water heater was great (I used to live in Nicaragua and expected to cold showers but was pleasantly surprised there was a heater for the shower). The pool was nice and big and the location was nice. The condo had numerous issues which continued to get worse so I had to leave early. To her credit, she wanted to try to make things right and mentioned she was going to not rent it again until she could get there to take care of things personally. The location was great and the condo has potential.

Location is very quiet, but still close enough to the town center that it’s convenient. The complex itself featured friendly residents and a nice pool. Apartment was well kept, and Amelia was willing to send the housekeeper whenever it was requested. The air conditioning is definitely nice to have in the Granada heat, especially at night. Overall it was a pleasant stay.

It was a unique and wonderful experience. The house has everything you need to have a great stay. I loved the Jacuzzi, the lighting, access to the pool, in the place you feel an incredible tranquility. We enjoyed ourselves so much that we didn't want to leave. Anyway... the place is highly recommended. Everything in excellent condition and good condition, kitchen, refrigerator, coffee maker, microwave and more ... everything was very useful to us. Thank you for having us. We hope to return very soon.

Amelia's place in Granada is a gem. The outdoor pool inside the complex is wonderful for a quick dip and the unit itself feels a bit luxurious and comfortable at the same time. Other highlights included the hot water for showering and the well-equipped bedroom. I would gladly stay at Amelia's place again on a future visit to Granada. It is located well with respect to some of the sites in the centro while getting you out of the mix. There is a security guard onsite, as well. The only thing that could use some attention is the state of the cooking supplies in the kitchen - they could stand to be updated. Otherwise, everything was splendid. Be sure to contact the host for the code for the strong box available inside the unit.

My husband and I spent a couple of nights at Amelie's place and LOVED it. She was so helpful in providing us tons of information about transportation from Managua and to SJDS. Her apartment was very well kept up and she had a ton of "extra" touches that shows she really puts a lot of effort into being a great host. She was so accommodating around our check in/check out times and we just really appreciated her prompt responses to any questions/comments we had. I would highly recommend this location and this host!

Amelia made my first unbeatable Airbnb Experience. I thank you for this adventure in Nicaragua, your hospitality, your service and your kindness. She makes her home a home with all the necessary amenities and the beauty of the place just completes it like a paradise. We also had a sick family member and there was immediate help from her and her lady from Casa. Thank you Amelia... We hope to return!

The description does not make this place justice, it is so much lovelier than you could hope for. And the hospitality of Amelia is world class. We truly enjoyed our holiday retreat to the lush mountains just outside of SJDS.

Host Response

I'm very happy i was able to make your stay with your group of friends memorable! You were all very gracious. Thanks!

Amelia is wonderful. She was always available to answer questions promptly and very responsive even though she was in the States and we were there. Her place worked out well, although it was a bit creepy being the only ones in the entire key/gated condo complex. It was very dark when we returned at night. We used the living room pull out sofa that Amelia had ready as a bed. Be aware that if you do that you aren't able to fold it back and use the living room as the bed takes up the whole living room. Also be aware that whoever stays there needs to walk through the bedroom to use the bathroom. The hot water and air conditioning worked really well and are a true rarity there--so that was much appreciated. You will want to use the air right away to get the musty smell out of the place that is due to the climate I am sure. We did not take a taxi from the square as others suggested and had no problem. It is not far (but we are walkers) and seemed too close to drive--but it isn't in the main stream of Granada life. We did move to a more mainstream place our second week there and enjoyed that convenience, but if you are looking for a more peaceful place, this is a good option.

Host Response

It was such a pleasure to have you and your daughter! And thank you so much for all the feedback I will certainly take it into consideration!. My best always!
