Very unique and lovely house inside the jungle. The food was also one of the best that we had in the country with ingredients of their farms. Every logistic was also incredibly smooth due to the super helpful staff, would highly recommend to unwind in this beautiful place during your stay in Nicaragua!

What an amazing place to stay on Ometepe. As it is located in the forest, one night we had an Ant invasion taking over our cabin. The guys from the farm helped us right away, sprayed some vinegar and gave us another cabin as it takes time for the ants to leave. They explained that they don’t use poison to kill them, they just destroy their ways with vinegar so they leave one by one. Pretty awesome. It was a bit of a hustle as we just wanted to go to bed but it’s still nature and it happens sometimes. We still felt comfortable here and can really recommend this place. I will definitely come back here!

Selvista was amazing!! Very jungle feeling yet luxury. The treehouse was comfy and private, we were visited by a monkey immediately. The best meal I had on my 10 day trip was at the restaurant on site with all farm fresh ingredients. Friendly staff and good vibes all around, the paths are lit up so it’s easy to navigate after dark. The views of the volcano is amazing, and star gazing was the best here!

Place was super cool. The sounds are amazing. We did have some ear buds just in case that were helpful but it was a really unique spot all nestled in the jungle.

We enjoyed our stay so much. The place was clean and beautiful. As shown in the pictures. We loved that they had some local fruits in the kitchen for people to enjoy. As Mitch said, it is better if you check in before it gets dark as the way to get from the road to the place it’s a dark and bumpy. Overall, it was great, and we would definitely go back!

spectacular stay, so so peaceful and the vibes were immaculate. we booked last minute after planning a day trip to ometepe. if you follow the instructions precisely it is easy to find, and the accommodations are amazing. i’d love to stay in one of the bigger treehouses next time! you can reserve a prix fix dinner that is thoughtfully prepared and very delicious. over all, one of the best “glamping” experiences i’ve had. also booked a private massage last minute that they do on your balcony and it was amazing. highly recommend!
