Quite often, there is a refreshing breeze around the property where you can enjoy bird and squirrel watching, maybe see the odd iguana or catch a distant howl from the howler monkeys. You will enjoy the enchanting bird calls from sunrise to sunset. The farm is a moderate working farm and some staff are on site each day to maintain the land and crops during the morning (Monday through Friday), with no intrusion to your privacy. Our two dogs (Tessa and Karla) are free to roam the farm but are well trained, they do not enter the pool area, nor your property.

The experience at this property was not as expected. One of the main issues was the pool, which was in very poor hygienic condition: the water was dirty and did not match the listing photos at all, which is misleading. Overall, the place's cleanliness leaves a lot to be desired. There is no sign of proper maintenance, which directly affects the comfort of the stay. Also, the location is very difficult to get to. It is quite far away and clearly difficult to access, which is not clearly stated in the description and makes getting around very difficult if you don't have your own transportation. On the other hand, the TV didn't work, which is another negative aspect that adds to the overall lack of maintenance at the property. Overall, I don't think the value for money is adequate given these conditions.

Marc was a wonderful host. Any issues that came up he resolved quickly. A great private place to relax. Don't spend your whole trip in a busy noisy city! There are small shops in the neighborhood with basic things and there is a town a $1 tuktuk ride away with many good options to eat out. Mombacho volcano is only 10 minutes away, which makes a great day trip.

Marc is a friendly and welcoming host, available but discreet. I appreciated my stay in this place. The cottage is in an ideal setting for those who love birdsong and tranquility. Lovely property very well maintained with lots of fruit trees and a beautiful pool. Easily accessible even by foot or by bicycle. Small stores nearby. Would definitely recommend

Such an incredible place. I booked for 2 months because I love the place so much. Beautiful nature, lots of privacy/space and a lovely luxury house. Nice to eat some fruits from the trees and the dogs of the owner are really cute. The bed was a bit to hard for me but I bought a softer top deck in the city to make it softer. The host (Marc) is super friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend this place!

Finca Madenina is set away from Granada. It is usually quiet. What to enjoy when you want to escape the hustle and bustle. The cities of Granada, Masaya and Managua are easily accessible by bus. The complex has a swimming pool. Since only 3 other fincas are on the property, you don't have to worry about overcrowding. Overall, the system looks tidied up. The reality is better than the pictures. Marc is a pleasant host.

We stayed for a week at Marc's place. The location is great for relaxing. The pool, the terrace and the large grounds, a must. The two dogs on the property are adorable. It is possible to go to the village (grocery store) without even taking our vehicle (20 minutes' walk). Marc is an excellent host.
