Our family enjoyed this place so much! The house and cabins are beautifully decorated; the beds are comfortable; everything was so clean. Alam helped us coordinate additional services like bbq and massages. The swimming pool and easy access to the ocean made our stay more fun. We definitely recommend Majagual.

This property is very beautiful and we had an amazing time with our family. Alam and his staff provided us excellent service and made our stay extra special. This property and beach is so beautiful we chose not to leave the house for the entirety of our stay and we are planning to return as soon as possible. If you plan to visit the road is challenging to get to the property, but well worth it. Definitely recommend a 4-wheel drive.

We celebrated my dads 70th birthday here and it was absolutely perfect. Cannot recommend enough. The beach is beautiful and there was plenty of room for everyone. We will absolutely return for another visit.

If you're looking for a slice of paradise, check out this breathtaking Airbnb in Nicaragua. Nestled on a 120-acre beachfront property, this resort-style retreat offers tranquility, lush landscapes, and the soothing sound of waves. Wildlife abounds—colorful birds, playful monkeys, and sloths make it unforgettable. Whether you're lounging by the pool, swinging in a hammock, exploring tropical forests, or on the beach the natural beauty amazes. Host Alam and his team elevate the experience with flawless hospitality. Alam answered all our questions, coordinated transportation, and organized a birthday celebration with cake and balloons for our group. Ramon, our friendly bartender, kept delicious drinks flowing, while Felicidad, the chef, delighted us with incredible meals thrice daily. Their warmth, attentiveness, and skill made the stay truly exceptional. This property isn't just accommodation—it's an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended for an escape and cherished memories!

We recently enjoyed a stay at a spacious villa with direct ocean access and exemplary staff, especially our bartender, Javier, who was truly professional and charming. Initially, some amenities were not working, but the responsive team fixed these issues swiftly. The secluded location provides privacy and stunning ocean views, though it's a 15-minute drive to the nearest shops and cafes. The highlight was watching unforgettable sunsets and spotting a friendly sloth on-site! While the meals were decent, they didn’t quite justify the $100 USD per person price. Despite this, the serene setting and fantastic service make this villa a recommendable choice for a unique getaway.

Beautiful location, surrounded by nature and what feels like your own private beach basically. The host, Alam, was awesome! He took great care of all of us and even did our groceries! We hired a chef, Felicita, and it was the best decision ever. She made us breakfast, lunch and dinner and every meal was amazing! The whole staff at the ranch was extremely friendly, our bartender Ramon was great, he kept making us fresh juices everyday. Overall our stay was a 10 out of 10, zero complaints!
