This is the second time I book this awesome Airbnb. It is always a pleasure to be back. 🙌🏻

A Stay that Stole Our Hearts Our four-day stay at Casa Manta Ray was truly unforgettable and exceeded every expectation. Everything was perfect, the comfort, beautiful décor, breathtaking ocean views, spectacular sunsets, and magical star-filled skies. It is easily one of the most beautiful places we’ve ever stayed. We came to relax, recharge, and spend quality time as a family, and it gave us all of that and more. Every moment was peaceful and filled with joy. A heartfelt thank you to Carrie for her excellent communication and for always being available to answer our questions. We are also incredibly grateful to Evelyn and Marcos for their kindness and outstanding hospitality. A special thank you to Evelyn for the delicious meals that made our stay even more memorable. Casa Manta Ray will always have a special place in our hearts. We can’t wait to come back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for the perfect beachfront escape.

Carrie's place exceeded our expectations in every way. The photos don’t do it justice. It’s even more beautiful, welcoming and comfortable in person. Everything was thoughtfully set up and made for such a relaxing, memorable stay. The convenience of the stairs straight down to the beach, the outdoor shower to rinse off after, the pool with comfortable furniture, and the cozy, well-appointed bedrooms were all unmatched and made the stay effortless and enjoyable. The place feels much more spacious in person. One highlight of the trip was Eveling’s daily cooking. Every meal was incredible and something we genuinely looked forward to each day. It added such a special, personal touch to the experience and made the stay feel truly unique. We would come back in a heartbeat and highly recommend it to anyone considering a stay here.

We had a great stay at Carrie's beautiful house with exceptional architecture, which is lovingly designed, a bit like in the museum. The direct beach access is super convenient, we especially liked the fact that you are almost alone there. We took advantage of the offer to have fresh cooking every evening for an extra charge, which we would highly recommend. There are three lovely and friendly dogs living on the premises who are happy to be petted. If we come to Nicaragua again, we will definitely check in there again.

Everything was great until the power went out on Saturday at 10pm and came back on Sunday at 9-10am. Which made the stay difficult as no one could sleep because of the heat. Also, the pool pump wasn't working and it was a little dirty. From there the The rest of the place is nice and very comfortable.

Host Response

We’re very sorry for the inconvenience you experienced during the power outage. As we are located in a small, secluded coastal village in Nicaragua, occasional utility interruptions can happen beyond our control. That said, as soon as we were made aware, we worked as quickly as possible with our local team and technicians to address the issue and restore everything to normal. With a full house of seven guests, electrical demand can be quite high, especially during hot evenings, and that can sometimes strain systems in rural areas. We are actively making improvements to help prevent situations like this in the future. We also issued a partial refund as a gesture of goodwill for the inconvenience, as guest comfort is very important to us. We care deeply about maintaining the property and are constantly working behind the scenes to improve systems and ensure a smooth experience for our guests. Thank you again for your stay and your understanding

Casa Manta Ray is the most creative, unique, romantic and beautiful home that we have ever stayed. The pictures do not do this home justice - it is much better than pictured! My wife and I visited for a quick romantic getaway and Casa Manta Ray nailed it. But the whole time we were also realizing how eager and great it is going to be when we come back with the whole family and it would also be perfect for that as well. I cannot speak or rate Casa Manta Ray highly enough - I wish that I could offer 5++++ stars. And Carrie is a perfect host. Genuine, caring and real. I highly recommend to experience Casa Manta Ray as you will never forget the experience.

We were two families living in the house, which is probably one of the most beautiful houses I've ever lived in. Really impressive architecture, very exciting art and very personally decorated. We felt at home in the house and the family that takes care of the house and the guests were very sweet and helpful. They cooked most of our meals, which we would definitely recommend. The area is very deserted and along the beach there are several abandoned houses. It gives a lot of peace and quiet, but also a bit of a tame atmosphere. If you need a peaceful vacation in very beautiful architectural surroundings, this is the right place.
