The location is unbeatable—tucked securely in the heart of town with stunning ocean and mountain views, yet entirely walkable to local restaurants, cafes, and the vibrant beach scene. The property itself is an amazing wellness sanctuary. The rooms are immaculate, and having access to top-tier amenities like the sauna, cold plunge, and yoga spaces made it the perfect place to recharge. The entire staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive, making sure every detail of the stay was taken care of. It truly felt like a home away from home, and I cannot wait to return for another visit. It seamlessly balances a peaceful, secure home base with easy access to the town’s incredible energy and sunset views. Highly recommend!

Really centric place to walk everywhere super easy! Great views from the terrace and practical stay with all that you need in one place. The only detail is that if you are planning to come with a car be prepared to pay extra for parking in the stay building. It took us by surprise as we already payed in advance and I thought parking was included in the original place. Please consider this and discuss with the Host in advance
Host Response
Hi Nicolas. Nice meeting you. Just to respond about the parking. In Airbnb we have listed street parking only. The parking we were able to provide, we paid for as well, because it was new years and town was full. we tried very hard to provide an alternative to free street parking for your cars security at that time of year. We hope you understand.

This an amazing space with fantastic hosts in Jayson and Claudia. The bed and shower were terrific and the amenities were all exactly as promised. It’s completely private, secure, clean and quiet while being so close to everything in town. The outside space is magical and the sunsets are memorable. I will be returning next year.

I chose to stay here based on the dozens of glowing reviews, and they certainly lived up. Jason & Claudia are simply the best. So welcoming, down to earth, and willing to share their time. The suites are in a great location overlooking town, super safe and clean — everything you need for a nice stay in San Juan del Sur. Claudia and Jason are quick with a local recommendation and it’s clear they take pride in running a top notch operation. 10/10, 5/5 stars, will definitely stay here again the next time I’m in town (and so should you).

Claudia and Jay were wonderful hosts - very kind, helpful and responsive which we greatly appreciated! Would definitely stay again. The unit was perfect for our needs - the beach and restaurants are just a few minutes away by foot, the ocean view and sunsets are spectacular, the kitchen was super handy for quick meals and air conditioning was nice for a quick cool down when needed. Thank you is for the stay Claudia and Jay! Thank you Claudia and Jay.

This was the most expensive place I booked while in Nicaragua, but it was clean and had hot water. Super long driveway up a hill and stairs to get to the place.

Really enjoyed my stay here. Claudia and Jason were super helpful and easy to reach whenever I needed anything. The apartment was clean, simple, and it’s in a great location. Also, the gate made me feel very safe. Would happily stay again. :)

The place was perfect for our stay in SJ. It is a little higher up and well protected, but you are immediately where everything is happening. The apartment has everything you need, nicely furnished and you feel right at home. A longer stay is also possible here.

We loved staying at Jason and Claudia's apartment. They made our stay super comfortable and really helped with what we needed, accommodating us and our three kids. The location is great, and just steps away from our favourite coffee shop - Dale Pues. They also made sure that we had water, available which as delivered to our door at our convenience and it was super easy to book the a space to get our laundry done whenever we needed. The views are beautiful from the apartment too, and we had ample space for the kids to make it their own. Our kids loved using the skate ramp outside, and this would keep them entertained for hours. We would highly recommend anyone wanting to stay at J&C's place in San Juan

To enter, you have to climb a very difficult climb with luggage only on foot because the gate is locked and the owner does not want to open it. We came with motorcycles and we did not even have the option to bring them in and they told us that from a certain time the gate is locked and you have to call someone to enter the area, this is not comfortable at all and cannot be canceled. Be careful
Host Response
This guest booked and asked for an early check in (normally we accommodate, but could not on this day). We responded immediately. He never responded. Then on check in day, 3 hours before check in he asked to cancel. He arrived with an attitude and negotiating canceling the reservation. We wrote him immediately agreeing to about half refund when he cancels. He never cancelled the reservation. After holding the reservation and apartment for the entire reservation. The last night as 4pm he finally canceled. He kept the apartment reservation the entire time. Then he retaliated in the review.
