From the moment we arrived, checked into our room, and were welcomed by Theresa, we felt right at home. A lovely, spacious room where you can feel at home. A cozy balcony in the shade all morning. A beautiful garden and lovingly designed common areas. Of course, the surrounding area with Playa Peru, the river, and the volcanoes is also very beautiful. Theresa was always there for us; we had the pleasure of sharing her lovely home with her for a few days. She took a lot of time to introduce us to the animals, the food, and life in Nicaragua. All the animals make the stay even more enjoyable! We extended our stay and will not forget this stop on our trip. It was difficult for us to say goodbye.

Schon mit dem Ankommen, Zimmer Beziehen und der Begrüssung durch Theresa fühlten wir uns gleich wie Zuhause. Ein schönes geräumiges Zimmer zum wohlfühlen. Ein gemütlicher Balkon den ganzen Vormittag im schatten. Ein wunderschöner Garten und liebevoll gestaltete Gemeinschaftsbereiche. Natürlich ist auch die Umgebung mit dem Playa Peru, dem Fluss und den Vulkanen sehr schön. Theresa war immer für uns da, wir durften ihr schönes Zuhause für einige Tage mit ihr teilen. Sie hat sich sehr viel Zeit genommen, uns die Tiere, das Essen und das Leben von Nicaragua näher zu bringen. All die Tiere machen den Aufenthalt noch schöner! Wir haben verlängert und werden diesen Stop auf unserer Reise nicht vergessen. Der Abschied ist uns schwergefallen.

We had a very nice 2 nights at Casa Papaki. The room was spacious, well-ventilated, and the bed was very comfortable. From the property, we went to see the San Ramón Waterfall and often drove to Playa Mango; the location was perfect for this. But the best thing about this place was the lovingly prepared breakfast; although it is not included, it is quite affordable and worth every penny.

Wir hatten sehr schöne 2 Nächte in der Casa Papaki. Das Zimmer war geräumig, gut durchlüftet und das Bett war sehr bequem. Von der Unterkunft aus haben wir den Wasserfall San Ramon angeschaut und sind oft zur Playa Mango gefahren, hierfür war die Lage perfekt. Aber das beste an dieser Unterkunft war das liebevoll zubereitete Frühstück, dies ist zwar nicht inbegriffen, aber eher preiswert und jeden Cent wert.

Ometepe has something special, but this house and Teresa's energy even more. Teresa made us feel at home all the time, always cheerful and with an excellent disposition. Being able to eat right there and so tasty, it's a big plus! We loved being able to learn more about Nicaragua from Teresa and all the recommendations she gave us. If you go, don't miss their coffees and omelets in the morning ♥️.

Ometepe tiene algo especial, pero esta casa y la energía de Teresa aún más. Teresa nos hizo sentir como en casa todo el tiempo, siempre alegre y con una excelente disposición. El poder comer ahí mismo y tan rico, es un gran plus! Nos encantó poder conocer más de Nicaragua desde Teresa y todas las recomendaciones que nos dio. Si vas, no te pierdas sus cafés y omelettes en la mañana ♥️.

When you go to a place to stay, you have expectations in mind, because Casa Papaki not only meets them but exceeds them, since its hostess Doña Tere, apart from being a spectacular cook, her human quality surpasses them and makes the place cozy and homey from day one. Thank you very much for your welcome, Ms. Tere.

Cuando uno va un alojamiento tiene unas expectativas en mente, pues casa Papaki no solo las cumple si no que las supera, ya que su anfitriona Doña Tere a parte de ser una cocinera espectacular su calidad humana la supera y hace que el lugar sea acogedor y hogareño desde el primer día. Muchas gracias por su acogida Doña Tere.

Absolutely lovely place! Teresa was also very helpful and kind. Definitely recommend ☺️

The time at the Papaki house was very nice. I felt at home. Teresa supported me in everything I needed! Also, I was able to practice my Spanish with her;) the location was great, close to the beach and waterfall! Would love to come back anytime:)

Die Zeit im Papaki Haus war sehr schön. Hab mich wie daheim gefühlt. Teresa hat mich bei allem unterstützt was ich brauchte! Außerdem konnte ich mit ihr mein spanisch üben;) die Lage war super, nah am Strand und zum Wasserfall! Würde jederzeit wieder gerne kommen :)

Theresa is wonderful and cooks very well! The place is very nice too, but has an enormous amount of mosquitoes.

Theresa ist wunderbar und kocht sehr gut! Die Unterkunft ist auch sehr schön, hat jedoch enorm viele Mücken.

Great place, beautiful people, absolutely a recommended stay!

We received a warm welcome from the hosts. Our room was large and on the balcony you could relax very well. Teresa and Josué took care of us warmly. The meals were all fresh and prepared with a lot of love. The location was great. Within 5 minutes we were on foot at Playa Peru with a wonderful sunset. In addition, we could easily rent a scooter to the accommodation. The property is highly recommended.

Wir wurden von den Gastgebern direkt herzlich empfangen. Unser Zimmer war groß und auf dem Balkon konnte man sehr gut entspannen. Teresa und Josué kümmerten sich herzhaft um uns. Die Mahlzeiten wurden alle frisch und mit viel Liebe zubereitet. Die Lage war klasse. Innerhalb von 5 Minuten waren wir zu Fuß am Playa Peru mit einem wunderbaren Sonnenuntergang. Außerdem konnten wir in der Unterkunft problemlos einen Roller zur Unterkunft mieten. Die Unterkunft ist nur zu empfehlen.

We loved it here, couldn’t recommend it enough but be sure to rent a scooter if you are staying here to explore the rest of the island. Teresa is a wonderful host and will cook you dinner and breakfast if requested (big portions). She also offers a laundry service but one thing to note is that she does not speak any English but you will be able to communicate regardless. The property itself is stunning with a beautiful terrace above the room which you can see the incredible stars at night.

It was a really nice stay. We immediately booked an extra night. Theresa is a super nice woman, and her food is also very tasty! The room was just like in the description.

Het was een heel leuk verblijf. We hebben meteen nog een extra nacht bijgeboekt. Theresa is een super aardige vrouw, en haar eten is ook heel erg lekker! De kamer was net zoals in de omschrijving.

Beautiful stay at Teresa in Casa Papaki! The place is peaceful and with all the comforts you need. Teresa is a lovely host, full of attention and advice. We also ordered meals,and we enjoyed ourselves. Thank you so much for the short time!

Magnifique séjour chez Teresa à Casa Papaki ! L'endroit est paisible et avec tout le confort nécessaire. Teresa est une hôte adorable, pleine d'attentions et de conseils. On a également commandé des repas,et on s'est régalé. Un grand merci pour ce trop court passage !

Really nice place where we felt very much. Two beaches with restaurants and kayak rentals are within walking distance. Otherwise, a scooter can be booked through the property, which is really worth it. There are some lovely animals, 2 cows, several chickens and 6 dogs living in the property. The house lady was also super sweet and prepared us food and smoothies for a small extra charge. The garden was also super comfy and we would definitely come back:)

Richtig schöne Unterkunft in der wir uns sehr wohl gefühlt haben. Fußläufig sind zwei Strände mit Restaurants und Kayak Verleih gut zu erreichen. Ansonsten kann über die Unterkunft ein Motorroller gebucht werden, was sich wirklich sehr lohnt. In der Unterkunft leben einige liebe Tiere, 2 Kühe, mehrere Hühner und 6 Hunde. Die Hausdame war ebenfalls super lieb und hat uns gegen einen kleinen Aufpreis Essen und Smoothies zubereitet. Der Garten war auch super schön und wir würden definitiv wieder kommen :)

Great farm stay near Playa Mango, a beach where you find mangos falling down, if you go in the right months. Beautiful rooms near Volcano Mombacho. It is on the property of an elderly lady, who is really kind and even offers breakfast, lunch and diner. The rooms do not have any AC and can get quite warm. It is on the country side. Unsurprisingly, you will encounter lots of crickets and mosquitoes. But it won’t be different in another place . Overall, incredible beautiful rooms, nice hosts and great location. If you don’t mind spending the time without an AC, that’s the place to go to. Would come back any time. Thanks for having us.

The Papaki house is a wonderful place! Theresa is a very kind woman and helps you in every case. He has told us about Uruguayan life, has cooked a delicious breakfast and after a round in his wonderful garden we cooked a delicious yuka dessert. We'll be back one day! Thank you for such a nice time. Carla and Micco

La casa papaki es un lugar maravilloso! Theresa es una mujer muy amable y te ayude in cada caso. Nos ha contado sobre la vida nicaragüense, ha cocinado un desayuno ricisimo y despues de una ronda por su jardin maravilloso cocinamos un postre riciiiisimo de yuka. Un dia vamos a volver! Gracias por pasar un tiempo tan lindo. Carla y Micco

The property is on a small farm with chickens and dogs. It's not far to San Ramon Waterfall, but it's a little secluded. Definitely rent a bike (not a scooter! Because of the ground clearance, you can't get to some sights otherwise). The room itself is quite good. The shower was cold unfortunately, but that was supposed to turn off. The hosts are nice and helpful. Food is available for $7 or $5 for breakfast. But you can also use the kitchen - not for cleanliness enthusiasts.

Die Unterkunft ist auf einem kleinen Bauernhof mit Hühnern und Hunden. Es ist nicht weit zum San Ramon Wasserfall, dadurch aber etwas abgeschieden. Mietet euch auf jeden Fall ein Bike (nicht Scooter! Wegen der Bodenfreiheit kommt ihr zu einigen Sehenswürdigkeiten sonst nicht hin). Das Zimmer selbst ist ganz gut. Die Dusche war leider kalt, aber das soll ja abhärten. Die Gastgeber sind nett und hilfsbereit. Essen bekommt man dort für 7$ bzw. 5$ fürs Frühstück. Ihr könnt aber auch die Küche nutzen - nichts für Sauberkeits-Fanatiker.

Peaceful and natural spot to spend a night and was a 20min moto ride away to explore the waterfall for the day.

honestly the best airbnb I've been to! we were supposed to stayfor 3 nights but ended up staying for more then a week. Theresa is the sweetest women, she helped us with  everything we needed including getting a scooter, she cooked for us any time we asked her and was super patient about our terrible Spanish. the cabin itself is super cute, clean and private. you'll have the cutest dogs and chiken running around. there is also a beautiful beach 5 minutes away were you can swim have a nice drink and see the most amazing sunset. we recommend getting a scooter so its easier getting aroun. overall the best possible experience, we will come again no doubt!!

If you are planning a trip to Ometepe, Papaki House is the place to stay. Daniel is a wonderful host who can give you the best advice on exploring the island. And trying Teresas food is a must. It was by far the best food I had within my eight weeks in Nicaragua. Not to forget the room was spacious and very clean.

This airbnb is wonderful experience. We stayed 14 days. Daniel and his family are great people. They are all so helpful and hospitable. We felt like at home (or more like on the grandma cottage. Peaceful house in the middle of nature with chickens, hammocks, three Chihuahuas and one pit bull and plantain plantage around). Teresa made me natural medicines when I felt sick. She cook delicious dinners and breakfasts. Must try the plantain lasagne 🙂. She is great Spanish teacher because she is nicely communicative and she do her best to keep the house perfectly clean. Daniel took us for a trip to jungle to see pertoglyphs and he showed us perfect sunset spot with vulcano view. There is no shop close to the house, but he always brought us any food we wanted from the city. Kitchen is fully equipped, Teresa is a passionate cooker and she shared with us all equipments, herbs garden (try moringa tea) and also her cooking knowledge. We left knowing how to make homemade tortillas and patacones. Very unique and authentic lovely airbnb, absolutely recommended. PS: if you have time go kayaking to Río Istián it's breathtaking experience Tomas & Anna

This place is a rare find. I felt at home with Daniel's family, and his advice and help was invaluable. I had an amazing time on Ometepe and will be back!

Daniel's place was wonderful! Off the beaten path a bit but central on the island. It was so lovely staying with a family and his mother will whip up delicious, healthy meals for you at a small extra cost. Highly recommended for travellers interested in an authentic experience with locals.

Daniel and his mother were awesome :)  They are a wonderfull family always there to help !  Daniel speaks english so the communication was easy but Theresa (his mother) speaks sphanish but we tried to understand both of us :)   They make me feel like home !  Daniel take me everywhere I need when he can, it's was easy because he had 2 days off.  Even there was no electricity for 3 days, it was  perfects days being there, I appreciated :)  thanks again !!!
