2BR Villa in Las Salinas

Maria

Excellent, 2 weeks ago

Excellent stay. The house is beautiful, everything was impeccable, the private pool is very enjoyable, and the air-conditioned bedrooms allow you to sleep in a pleasant temperature. The house is very nicely decorated and equipped with everything you need.

We are a small family with two children (2 years old and 8 months old). We felt right at home. Alex and Daniela are so friendly, accommodating, and always available! The apartment is as described in the pictures. Super clean, totally quiet. We would recommend it to anyone and would come back again.

Host Response

Thank you so much for your words! 🤍 It was truly a pleasure to host you, and we are delighted to hear that you felt right at home—this is exactly what we aim for with every family that visits us. Thank you also for your trust in traveling with your little ones; you are a lovely family. It will always be a pleasure to have you back at Pelícano ✨ Sending you a big hug, and we hope to see you again soon!

I stayed at Pelicano for 2 weeks with 2 other people. The Host Alex was very friendly and responsive and the staff was extremely nice and attentive. The location and the amenities of the property is what really stood out to us. It is a quick 10 minute walk down to beginners bay or 15 minutes to Popoyo which made it perfect for our surf trip. The amenities, mainly the pool and the AC, really stood out for us due to the hot weather. The power cuts in and out during the day due to the road work being done, but if needed there is a generator for back up power. Having a full kitchen was definitely a huge plus as well! If I came back to Nicaragua I would definitely stay here again. It was peaceful, private, comfortable, and perfect for our needs.

Pelicano Popoyo is the most beautiful place. The hosts are amazing! The location is perfect, up the way from the beach . We felt right at home there.

Host Response

Thank you so much, Maria, for your kind words. We’re truly happy to know you felt at home and enjoyed both the location and your time with us. We would love to welcome you back.

Pelícano Popoyo offers outstanding value and a great location close to many beaches along the Rivas coast. It not only matches but exceeds the listing's photos and description. I will offer insights not mentioned in other reviews: 1) Getting there is a breeze using the new Ochomogo->Las Salinas paved road. Along the way you enjoy beautiful views of hills, farms and local communities which make the drive a very pleasant experience. 2) Once you reach Las Salinas you are greeted by the new "Costanera" (Coastal/Coast) paved road. Though not entirely complete, there is a roughly 12 Km section that is ready and takes you to El Astillero in a flash. Once the "Costanera" is finished, you'll be able to access even more beaches in no time. 3) All lights are dimmable which allow you to comfortably reach the bathrooms or kitchen late at night without disturbing your sleep. 4) For those spending several days, there are different options if you want to cook (stove, oven, shared BBQ).

Thank you very much, Luis Alberto, for such a detailed and thoughtful review. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share these insights, especially regarding access, location, and the small design details that often make a difference during a stay. We’re glad Pelícano Popoyo exceeded your expectations and that you enjoyed both the surroundings and the amenities. It would be a pleasure to welcome you back in the future.

Nicest couple ever! This is a must place to stay. Just an 8 minute walk to the beautiful beach of Popoyo.

Host Response

We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed your time at Pelícano and that you loved the walk to Popoyo Beach — it’s such a special part of this place. Hosting kind and positive guests like you reminds us why we love what we do. You’ll always have a home waiting for you in Popoyo. Daniela & Alex
