Everything was perfect. Thanks for everything

I’ve stayed at 30+ AirBNBs in several countries and this is the 1st negative review I’ve written. My experience does not match the limited but positive reviews I’ve read. I’ve done my best to be fair and write an accurate description of my experience. Pros: this place is big, easily can house 8+ people comfortably. The pool was amazing. Wi-Fi worked great as well. Cons: inaccurate description of ocean views (our views were entirely obstructed, initial complaints were dismissed, and ultimately a partial refund was provided after it was officially requested through AirBNB, listing has since been updated), the beach is dirty with broken glass and very unsafe at night (you will have to taxi home), the electricity limits were very strict (we only used two rooms and still went over), multiple cockroaches in the home, difficult/dismissive communication, kitchen lacking basic essentials Overall, questionable value considering high cost of this rental.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. However, it is somewhat misleading. When we realized the tree had grown due to the rains, we promptly apologized, despite you calling us "liars" (which was a bit aggressive), and worked to get it trimmed. Unfortunately, the ongoing heavy rains made this impossible. You can see this was a new issue based on the fact that every other review is five stars. When you requested the refund through Airbnb (the proper channel), we discussed it (the proper method) and subsequently offered the two-night refund as you requested. Regarding the beach, that is the port of San Juan del Sur, not a tropical beach. There are boats, bilge, restaurants, bars and yes, some pollution, and garbage. We clearly state that you cannot walk on the beach during high tide or at night and reinforce this in person. Your complaint about the bugs is noted, but these are common in tropical climates and are beyond our control. It is not indicative of the cleanliness of the home. Electrical limitations are indicated in the listing in two locations to ensure guests do not abuse the AC and leave it running when no one is in the home. We discussed this with you several times. In the future, I suggest you read the listing thoroughly before booking and educate yourself a bit further on the country and climate you are visiting. As a guest, it's important to research your destination.

We had a great stay at la Bahia! Spacious home with nice pool only a few steps from the beach and town of San Juan del Sur. Special mentions to Veronica and Feliciano for always being available for our questions and needs. Be careful with the electricity usage. We had to pay a fee for exceeding the electricity allowance. We would come back anytime!

You were excellent guests Marc-Andre and thank you for reminding guests about the AC and limitations!

Great Place! 4 great Bedrooms all with private full bath. The living area worked well. Large well equipped kitchen. The ground were well maintained. Right across the street from the beach access and an easy walk on the beach to town.

A hidden Gem! Very private, We had a great time! Easy to drive to town, or you could take a scenic 10 min walk and walk next to the beach! Laura and staff was very easy to talk to, they were very responsive, from start to finish!

Thank you so much Pedro, we really enjoyed hosting you and your lovely family.

We had a wonderful stay in Laura’s home, the on-site host Veronica was very responsive with setting us up for our stay. We were steps from the beach and a short walk to town. The house was very spacious with a lovely patio, hammocks and pool to use.

Our family really loved our stay in San Juan del Sur. The house is very large and clean with plenty of room to spread out, and privacy for everyone. The hammocks were our favorite spot and we all had to fight over who got them every day! You can hear the waves crashing from the patio and the ocean is steps away. The stay was seamless and we don't have any complaints! The neighborhood felt safe and there is a tiny convenience store about two blocks away where you can grab drinks and snacks if you need them in a pinch.

Nice place, clean and well maintained, looked like the pictures. Pool was smaller then it seemed but overall good experience. Veronica was great and communicated with us to ensure our stay was comfortable.

Ricardo- thank you for rescuing the patio furniture in that intense wind storm. You went above and beyond as a guest, we are so thankful!

We had two great weeks in Nicaragua and a lot of that was due to a lovely place to stay. Plenty room and facilities for a large family. It is ideally situated in Tallengera, a short walk across the beach to the lively town of San Jaun Del Sur. Also easy to discover surrounding beaches. Big thank you to feliciano who is on site 24/7 should you need anything, and also a big thank you to Veronica for keeping in touch during our break. Thanks Laura it’s a wonderful place you have.

Thank you Chris! It's a great space for a family

Beautiful well equipped house!  Location is great.

We think so too Preston. Thank you for being such great guests.

Have done 5 nights with our 4 adult children Very clean and impeccable service with the caretaker of the place who is very helpful The kitchen and supplies are complete with the exception of the living room where we would have liked to have had a bigger sofa to accommodate everyone. Beautiful terrace with hammock where we spent a lot of time. Without a car, it's possible but you can go through a small river that has high tide up to the thigh. In the evening we didn't walk out because of the darkness on the beach. You have to plan a taxi ... Location in front of the beautiful sea to enjoy the sunset. Nice walk to see jesus! Beautiful memories! I also recommend Goûter "l 'arzoto con leche"of the lady who sells this on the street a Must!

Avons fait 5 nuits avec nos 4 enfants adultes Très propre et service impeccable avec le gardien de la place qui est très serviable La cuisine et fournitures sont complète a l’exception du salon où nous aurions aimé avoir un plus grand sofa pour accueillir tout le monde. Belle terrasse avec hamac ou nous avons passé beaucoup de temps. Sans auto c’est possible mais on traverse petite rivière qui a marée haute monte eau jusqu’au cuisses. Le soir nous ne sommes pas sorti à pied car noirceur sur la plage. Faut prévoir taxi … Emplacement devant la mer superbe pour profiter du couché de soleil. Belle marche pour aller voir jesus! De beaux souvenirs! Je recommande aussi de Goûter « l’arrizoto con leche »de la dame qui vend ça dans la rue un Must!

Location of the property is great. Less than a 2 minute walk to the beach (beach is one house over). By car, center of town is 15 minutes away. You could during the day walk along the beach to the center of town. Laura was very responsive and the on-site grounds keeper was also responsive.

Thank you Allan. You were fantastic guests!

A great home with a great location and even better hosts. Very accommodating and easy to deal with.

Great location right by the water and easy walk to town. The place is as described! I would rebook.

Thank you Reece! It was a pleasure to host you!

Fantastic value. Just steps from the beach. You literally walk out gate and take 5 steps to see the beach and 50 steps till you toes hit the sand. The place is clean and has everything you need. The pool was cleaned daily the grounds were spotless. The rooms had their own bathrooms which is perfect for groups. Water dispenser provided. Fridge kept beers cold. Stove worked. AC works. Something I did not see on post but house has a generator so we had lights when power was out. The place locks up tight (very safe). TV was good. I thought this place was an excellent choice.

Great property! Great location! Steps to the beach and it's about a 10 min walk to town. The house is modern, functional and very clean. The hosts were very responsive and helpful!

Excellent place to spend time with family. Beautiful house and really good attention.
