Other Things to Note

Casa Romantica was featured on House Hunters International on January 5, 2018. The property has been updated with new furniture and a new roof.

Maid service and trash removal are available upon request, and guests can inquire about laundry facilities.

Electric and water outages are common in Nicaragua, but Julio is available to assist in case of prolonged outages.

Please be mindful of electricity usage, as costs are high in Nicaragua. The pool is not baby-safe, so supervision is necessary.

Guests are encouraged to explore Granada on foot rather than by car, but if driving, private gated parking is recommended.
