5BR Luxury Villa in San Juan del Sur

Kate

Excellent, 2 weeks ago

No words can really describe this place but it was breathtaking and beyond perfect! We frequent all over Nicaragua and this place probably stole our hearts the most! Loved having separate space for the kids and adults to all spread out. The staff was so so nice and helpful! We cannot wait to come back and stay for a very long time! Highly recommend and great for families or groups as well!

Amazing place! The pictures really don’t do this place justice. Beautiful villa in a very peaceful surrounding. Great communication from the host and the property staff were very friendly and helpful. Our only regret is that we did not book a longer stay.

We are so grateful that you came to stay with us again! Thanks for the review and come back anytime!

We had such a nice, peaceful stay at Via Villa Vilma. It felt super calm and relaxing the whole time, exactly what we needed. Everyone there was so kind and welcoming, you can really feel the good energy. We loved our stay and definitely hope to come back again. Highly recommend 🤍

Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re truly happy to hear that your stay at Villa Loma was peaceful and relaxing—that’s exactly the experience we hope to create for every guest!

This villa in San Juan del Sur was absolutely breathtaking. From the moment we arrived, the views alone had us in awe — truly something special to wake up to and wind down with every day. The home has a beautiful rustic, authentic charm that gives it so much character. It feels warm, inviting, and perfectly in tune with the surroundings — not overly modern, but in the best way possible. You really feel like you’re experiencing something unique, not just another rental. Everything we needed was already there, which made our stay super comfortable and stress-free. The space was clean, well maintained, and thoughtfully set up for guests. It’s also about a 15-minute drive from the main downtown area of San Juan del Sur, which we actually loved — close enough to get to everything easily, but far enough to enjoy peace, quiet, and those incredible views. Overall, we had an amazing experience and would 100% stay here again. If you’re looking for a place with stunning views and real charact

Thank you so much for this incredible review! We’re truly grateful for your kind words and so happy to hear that your stay was such a memorable experience. It’s wonderful to know that the views made such an impression—those moments of sunrise and sunset are something we also find very special. We’re especially glad you appreciated the rustic charm of the villa, as we’ve intentionally created a space that feels authentic, warm, and connected to its natural surroundings. We’re also pleased to hear that you found everything comfortable, clean, and thoughtfully prepared, and that the location struck the right balance between convenience and tranquility. It was an absolute pleasure hosting you, and we would be honored to welcome you back anytime. Thank you again for the 100% recommendation!

The good points: beautiful view, spacious place, and very quiet. Cons: Poor access for a 4x2 vehicle, neglected gardens (only the flowers around the house were well kept), but the green areas and patio were in very bad shape, with trash in the corners (I have photos), no hot water in the downstairs bathroom shower, and a foul-smelling bathroom. There was no soap. The pool was dirty upon arrival (we had to clean it) and very small (not as shown in the photos), and it was full of wasps (hornets). The laundry room was messy and very noisy. The sliding door in the downstairs room was very difficult to open because it was damaged. As for bedding, there was only one sheet. We also found a tarantula. The photos in the listing are dreamy, and the property is not like that; all the furniture in the rooms is old and smells bad. There is a cat that goes into all areas of the house, covering everything with hair, which even ends up in the food (if you have pets that don't get along with cats, it will be a nightmare), and there are also 2 large dogs. We need well-maintained pans, and doors in the rooms ⬆

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the beautiful view, spaciousness, and peaceful setting—those are aspects many guests truly value about the property. We’re sorry to hear that other parts of your stay did not meet expectations. Cleanliness and maintenance are very important to us, and your comments regarding the gardens, pool condition on arrival, and interior details have been taken seriously and shared with our team for immediate review and improvement. Regarding access, we do note in our listing that the property is located in a rural area where road conditions can vary, particularly depending on the season. We understand this may not be ideal for all vehicles and are always happy to provide guidance in advance. As for the presence of wildlife and animals, being surrounded by nature in Nicaragua means that encounters with insects or animals can occasionally occur, despite regular pest control efforts. We also make efforts to manage visiting animals, though they are part of the natural environment here. We regret that certain amenities did not meet your expectations, and we would have gladly addressed items such as soap, kitchen equipment, or any maintenance concerns during your stay had we been notified at the time. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience, as it helps us continue improving. We wish you all the best in your future travels.

We stayed 2 months at the house and wished we had booked longer. It’s set up so nicely for bigger groups and it has a very private oasis feel. The massive front porch has space to sit and enjoy a meal, comfortable seating areas and a hammock that we all fought over. It’s the most beautiful view of hills and jungle and the sunsets were absolutely gorgeous. Elia was such a wonderful blessing. She’s so sweet, kept the house and outdoor areas so clean and looking beautiful every day. She did our laundry, made beds, cleaned linens, kept the kitchen spotless, and was so helpful whenever we had questions or needed anything! Chango worked hard on the property and it showed. Pool was clean and inviting and the grounds were all well maintained. He was so quick to get the generator running as soon as power would be lost (as it so often does in Central America). He had everything running smoothly our entire stay. It was fantastic. We can’t wait to go back!

This property is stunning! Our family felt right at home and loved the privacy of having different buildings to spread out. The views from the front porch were spectacular, and there are tons of hammocks and lounge chairs to relax. Host gave great local recommendations which we appreciated. Although the dirt road to get there is bumpy, we made it fine and it wasn’t too far from the town of San Juan (about 10-15 minutes). AC in every building and warm (not hot!) water is a huge plus. Only complaint is that the smaller house/apartment has tons of windows and is very bright early, so sleeping in is difficult, and the curtains don’t glide and cover all the glass so not great privacy for night. A really beautiful property with tons of tropical plants and trees. We would definitely stay again! Thank you Peter!

Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re so happy to hear that your family felt at home and enjoyed the privacy, stunning views, and the relaxing amenities. We're also glad you found the local recommendations helpful! We appreciate your feedback about the smaller house/apartment and will look into improving the curtain situation for better privacy and light control. It’s great to know you'd stay again, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime. Thanks again!

This house is beautiful and a great quiet place to go and just be surrounded by nature. House is great well maintained. The terrace has a spectacular view in general and especially for sunset. Kids loved the pool & it is in the shade so it is quite cool. Pros. Location, quiet and private Great Kitchen Yoga Pavillion Wonderful breeze (we didn't use the AC in the house at all) Tons of outdoor space with lots of seperate areas. The ice machine (this was an amazing bonus & now I want one for home). Elia keeping the house and linens clean We had an issue with a shower head & they had someone replace it the next day! Cons The road there is a B grade road for the last like 1km. Not terrible, just a lot of ruts & bumps. (we had a 4x2 Toyota Rush and it did fine). Rainy season I'm guessing is another story. The hot water doesn't really make it to the outside bathroom down by the pool & only sort of works in the Honeymoon suite. Not a big deal just how it goes. Overall 10/10!
