La Palmera

LOVED IT! It's so cool to be surrounded by so much nature but also have all of the confort and amenities. Hot water almost feels like too much haha. The staff is also fantastic and really happy to help with anything. We were lucky to also have yoga classes with Rihanna while there which was a nice bonus. I need to come back ASAP.

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!

This place was absolutely amazing for our 3 night stay on ometepe. Would highly recommend it to anyone looking to stay on the island.

Very nice stay!

We loved our stay in Balgue. Great location, excellent food and wonderful staff. Highly recommend hiking the volcano!

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!

This stay was absolute perfection. We came to stay on this beautiful farm for just few days of our honeymoon in Nicaragua, and as soon as we arrived, we knew we wanted to come back. The accommodations themselves are super comfortable and unique -- you are in the middle of the jungle listening to the sounds of howler monkeys, but you have hot water and super soft sheets. The property is phenomenal -- we loved hanging out with the pups and exploring the flora and fauna of the farm. The meals at the on-site restaurant, including the breakfasts included with the stay, were delicious and fresh, and we actually ended up eating all our dinners there as well. Megan, Mitch, and the rest of the amazing staff were so helpful with getting us taxis booked and arranging for a 4x4 to be brought to the property for us to rent, as well as booking an excursion to go kayaking on the River Istian (definitely do that!). This will be a stay we will remember forever.

La Palmera was such a beautiful stay. The treehouse was beautiful and the hosts Mitch and Michelle were awesome! Before we arrived, Michelle gave us the option to pick one of their pre-fixed menus to eat for dinner when we arrived. The food was outstanding and the service was very very good. The treehouse itself was incredibly clean and serene. The shower was cooler water but it’s actually really refreshing since it gets so hot out there!

We loved this stay and would definitely return again :)

Absolutely loved this place, we’re already talking about coming back. Host was very proactive with communication and helped us with lots of different activities and accommodations

It was such a unique experience! I loved being up in the air among the trees surrounded by nature! The staff was so helpful and attentive! Delivered everything to the treehouse at my request and were always accessible! It was such a great feeling to be surrounded by nature and at the same time have modern comforts! I got the best of both words! Although I did take advantage and disconnected for a while which was easy to do in the best way! I definitely will be returning and sharing this experience with a guest or two!

We had a wonderful stay. Megan was super responsive and helpful. The place was lovely, great location in nature, and the food was incredible! Highly recommend the restaurant

If you’re sensitive to noise at night bring ear plugs as the jungle is loud. It does get hit during the day but the shower is cool and refreshing so that helps. Overall highly recommend for a getaway.

Also a great place to start the Maderas volcano hike

An exceptional and great place to stay surrounded by nature. Everything is nicely designed and well thought out with attention to the details.

Absolutely loved our stay here! Beautiful surroundings, and the Palmera cabin was perfect. Everyone was super friendly and helpful. Loved the dogs! :)

I absolutely loved my stay here! You are truly out in the jungle, but still have great amenities. And the restaurant was delicious with stunning views.

What a lovely few nights we spent in the tree house, beautiful and isolated but still not too far from other happening things on ometepe! The staff were so nice and friendly!

We had an incredibly unique experience staying in this treehouse. The property felt like a jungle playground, full of little gems, wildlife, and endless spots to explore. During our stay, we hiked the Conception volcano and kayaked the Istian River, both unforgettable adventures. Most of our meals were at the on-site restaurant, which was fabulous. The dogs were an absolute delight. We stayed for two nights but definitely wish we had more time!

Just a heads up: there’s no hot water in this room, but after a hot day, the cold shower is refreshing way to cool down!

An unmatched experience we will cherish forever!

Beautiful place. We loved it so much and never wanted to leave. Super peaceful and beautiful. Amazing food just a few steps away.

Arrival was tedious as the wrong address was on Airbnb and the name did not match. As a result, we could hardly find the accommodation because the signage is inadequate. In addition, the landlady was not available for 1.5 hours.

Once you have arrived, the location in the jungle is a great experience. You see a lot of animals and are awakened by howler monkeys – just wonderful. The cool nights made air conditioning superfluous. However, a big drawback is that there is only ice-cold water, which was not mentioned anywhere before. If we had known, we probably wouldn't have booked the place.

The breakfast needs improvement: Despite the beautiful view, we waited 40 minutes for coffee and fried eggs, although there were more staff than guests. We left out dinner because the menu had little to do with regional cuisine and instead put on "fancy" dishes. Vietnamese coffee on an organic farm in Nicaragua?

Such a beautiful place and community. Megan was very responsive with requests and made me felt right at home! I will definitely come back!

We loved our stay here, it had a real jungle feel but we felt comfortable and loved the cabin. The staff were all very friendly and helpful through out, we felt very welcome. The shared kitchen was a lovely space and we tried some delicious fresh fruit. The breakfast included was delicious, but we did miss the rice and beans for fuel for the day if you’re doing some hiking etc.

We rented ATVs and had a taxi to and from the port, this was all easy to organise with staff and made the trip stress free. The only suggestion we had would be to have the ATV rental times a bit more flexible, we arrived at 3pm and would have been charged the full $65 to rent one for the afternoon, which seemed a lot for just a few hours as we had one from 8am the next day. I do recommend having one for the stay though as it made it easy to explore the island and was really fun.

We enjoyed Balgüe which had some lovely restaurants and it was a great base to explore. We would be delighted to stay here again.

Great place!

Cute treehouse on a permaculture farm on Ometepe Island. Definitely a natural experience, you should be aware of that. We had a wonderful stay here for 4 nights, in the rain it can get louder because tin roof, otherwise it's really a little oasis. The insect visit is very limited and was easy to trade. There is also a restaurant on the premises that tastes good food. A shared kitchen with very basic amenities is also available.

Communication with the hosts went smoothly, as well as the transfer to and from the port. Balgue is a great base for any activities. We would definitely come back.

Everything was perfect!
