We travelled with baby. Unfortunately, we were not able to book the family bungalow, although the booking was initially confirmed to us. We then stayed in the loft apartment. Not ideal with baby as the stairs are open and the toilet downstairs and outside the house. What is not mentioned clearly enough in the description is that the community area is right in front of the loft apartment and light is constantly burning across the house with the kitchen. This has hurt the seclusion and privacy. Otherwise, the place is great, very easy and the contact was nice and helpful.

Wir reisten mit Baby. Leider haben wir das Familienbungalow nicht buchen können, obwohl uns die Buchung zunächst bestätigt wurde. Wir haben dann in der Loftwohnung gewohnt. Nicht ideal mit Baby, da die Treppe offen ist und die Toilette unten und außerhalb des Hauses. Was in der Beschreibung nicht deutlich genug erwähnt wird, ist, dass der Communitybereich gleich vor der Loftwohnung ist und gegenüber im Haus mit der Küche ständig Licht brennt. Das hat der Abgeschiedenheit und Privatsphäre etwas geschadet. Ansonsten ist der Ort super, sehr einfach und der Kontakt war nett und hilfreich.

The place is super nice - remote, in the middle of the farm with beautiful views of the volcano and hummingbirds flying  right in front of our window 🤍

Thanks to Miguel and the team. He looked after us very well and gave us a warm welcome. We received good recommendations for restaurant and tours. The permacultur system was very well explained to us. We liked breakfast too. Thank you.

Gracias a Miguel y el equipo. El nos ha atendido muy bien y nos dio una calorosa bienvenida. Recibimos buenas recomendaciones para restaurante y tours. Nos explicó muy bien el sistema de permacultur. El desayuno nos gustó tambien. Gracias.

We lovee staying here. The view of the volcano is amazing and there is such a peaceful vibe all around the house. We slept in a very comfy bed and it was not hot at all ! We had a very nice and warm welcome from Miguel who was helped us rent a cab to go back to the ferry ! I recommend it 100% !

This was the perfect place to rest and get work done with the view of the volcano and great energy of the island. The staff were incredibly helpful. I ended up extending my stay because I liked this place so much!

Finca del Sol is lovely. If you are an adventurer and will like to see some breathtaking views from the volcano, ask Pablo he fixed a great tour with Hector an awesome guide, do your best to support local! People in Ometepe are very generous and hospitable.

What a place ! Located on to my opinion the best place on the island, Santa Cruz, and very close to Balgue, hippy vibe jungle with very good restaurants around ! To access to the house, you walked 5 min trough the farm, a beautiful forest with huge trees and a few animals... Up in the room, we are at canope level, it feels like you live jn the trees ! Beautiful bird show from the balcony on the rocking chairs ! Very nice bathroom outside the room in a little cabana next door, with dry toilets ! Very well maintained. Pablo that welcomed us is a very sympathique host, speaks very well english and has a very charming smile :) There is a motorbike rental stall just outside the gate of the property and the boys are nice and have good prices, they can also arrange you a taxi :) very convenient ! Felt like we found one of the best airbnb on Ometepe ! Thanks !

Place was awsome! Helped us with local guide to climb the volcano and information on basically anything we wanted to do!

Thanks very much Anthony, we are so happy you enjoyed your stay! Kindly, sheri

Awesome spot, great hosts, SO beautiful - HIGHLY recommended!

Thanks alot Jen, we look forward to hosting you again in the future!!! Ometepe has so much to do! Kindly, sheri

We stayed at the orchid loft and we totally enjoy everything about the place. The view of the Conception volcano right on the rocking chair (and even from the bed) is absolutely spectacular. The Finca is in the wild but close to town also where you can get some good restaurant. The pace in Ometepe is slow and you can really enjoy the wild life. In the morning you can hear the howler monkeys and birds. I can tell you it is something special. Keep in mind it’s a screen palapas in the forest, so yeah you can have some spiders and little critters. But it is still very clean and if couple of nights in a really nice Finca on a volcano island surround by wild life and Forrest, Finca del Sol is the place in Ometepe.

Thank you so much Stephane! We are so glad you enjoyed the room...yes the monkeys are so amazing! This morning i was out in the yard admiring family of monkey and the little baby one you seen was hanging on the treetops eating some leaves....really priceless!

We loved our stay and Sheri was so helpful! The food was delicious and the finca and view were beyond beautiful.
