Nous avons eu le meilleur séjour chez Jimmi et Fusun. Les deux étaient très gentils, accueillants et aidants. Nous nous sommes tout de suite senties à l'aise et avons même prolongé notre séjour. L'emplacement est idéal car il est facile de se rendre partout en ville et à la plage à pieds tout en étant tranquille et sécuritaire. La maison est magnifique, propre et tout est bien pensé pour le confort des invités. Nous avons abondamment profité de la belle vue sur la ville et la mer, de la piscine, des couchers de soleil dans le bain en haut de la colline et de la compagnie des adorables chatons. Nous recommandons chaudement (et on aurait même aimé y rester pour toujours).

Loved and enjoyed the home from the beginning to the end. It was quiet, clean and definitely a home we will be renting in the future. Jimmy and his wife were accommodating in every aspect and the place was exactly the same as the description.

Jimmi est un hôte incroyable et sa maison l'est tout autant. Vous avez là tous les ingrédients pour réussir un super séjour : une immense terrasse pour vous détendre et apprécier de très belles vues (et encore plus du sommet de la propriété où vous pouvez voir toute la baie), une belle et grande chambre avec toutes les commodités et sa salle de douche privée (avec eau chaude, ce qui est rare au Nicaragua), un accès libre à la cuisine, une belle piscine pour se rafraîchir. Un grand merci Jimmi pour votre accueil, votre gentillesse, votre disponibilité, votre aide, votre réactivité et votre humour. Plein de bonheur à vous 2 et aux 2 "gangsters" de la maison 😉

Wonderful place! Great location, walking distance to food, bars, beach, shopping, etc. Room was nice and clean with thoughtful amenities. AC worked well, pool was wonderful, overall just a great place to stay. View was lovely, there is a little bit of a hike up the street it’s on, but we were told about it before booking, so we were aware. Hosts were very responsive and gave great recommendations for the things we asked. Would definitely stay again!

Excellent stay all around! We stayed at Jimmis place for 3 nights and would definitely return if we come back to San Juan in the future. The location was perfect, a quick 3 minute scooter ride into town and the beach. The details really stood out here - Turkish towels, nice smelling soap, comfortable beds, a spotlessly clean space, the "Honor drawer" where you can purchase things you may need if you don't want to run into town(what a great idea). I believe this was the first HOT shower we had in Central America after a couple weeks of travelling. The pool was refreshing and the views from the plunge tub were fantastic. Highly recommend!

We absolutely loved our stay at Jimmi's house. We loved it so much, this was our second time staying here within 1 week. We were in San Juan area hosting a retreat and utilized Jimmi's space for pre and post-retreat landing spaces, which was amazing. He was super responsive to all our questions, gave us some amazing recommendations, and was flexible with check-ins and out when able to do so. When we arrived both times, we were greeted with delicious infused fruit water. Which was super refreshing after the stairs. This place is up a hill and some stairs, which really was not an issue for us at all, and really got your cardio in. The view from the top looking down onto San Juan was gorgous and there was also an amazing pool to swim in during the hot days. We also loved the outdoor shower and large bathing connecting our two rooms together. We will definitely be staying here again next time we come to San Juan. Amazing hosts, and amazing space!
