Wake up in Balgüe to fresh breezes, expansive volcano views, and the gentle sounds of farm life. The Butterfly House is a cozy, solar-powered hilltop retreat featuring air conditioning, fast Wi-Fi, and hammocks perfect for relaxing afternoons. Situated above the village, it benefits from cooler temperatures, fewer insects, and a tranquil setting surrounded by nature.
Inside, the home offers comfort and charm. The master bedroom includes air conditioning, a queen bed, and a full bed, ideal for couples or families. A second bedroom with bunk beds and fans is suitable for children or additional guests. The fully equipped kitchen overlooks the garden, while the bathroom provides both an indoor shower with volcano views and an outdoor shower under the open sky.
Outside, life slows down. Observe goats, donkeys, and chickens grazing just beyond the porch. In season, pick fresh mangoes, bananas, or avocados. Relax in hammocks, enjoy coffee as butterflies and hummingbirds visit the flowers, or explore nearby hiking trails, kayaking spots, and cafés in Balgüe.
If the Butterfly House is booked, inquire about the Vista View on the same property. Additionally, two lake-access houses—Heron House and Kingfisher House—are available down the road from the farm.
Animal lovers will appreciate our friendly dogs and cats. Abrazo, the big orange cat, especially enjoys being picked up.
The listed price includes accommodation for two adults. Children under 10 years old are included in the base price. Guests renting the house have access to the entire property, with extra space available for friends and family at an additional cost of USD $10 per person per night.
There are many activities on the farm. You can accompany our farmhand to collect eggs from free-range hens for breakfast, try milking our goat, and even make cheese, which is delicious. Our garden is fully organic and abundant with tropical fruits and vegetables for you to enjoy.
Stay on a peaceful, off-the-beaten-path farm nestled in the tropical forest, just minutes from horse riding, hiking trails, and quiet beaches. Meet the warm Nicaraguan locals who care for the farm and enrich your visit.
From the spacious balcony, take in sweeping views of Lake Nicaragua and both volcanoes. A near-constant breeze helps keep insects away. Wake to the sounds of monkeys, parrots, goats, and the occasional rooster.
Our home operates entirely on solar power, embracing sustainable living through recycling, reusing, composting, and using natural pest repellents made from garlic, onion, and chili peppers.
This stay offers a unique opportunity to experience the natural beauty, community spirit, and authentic lifestyle of Ometepe in one memorable visit.
