A new oceanfront pool and 50-foot open-air rancho overlook a secluded beach, with private stair access to tide pools. This 4BR villa in El Tránsito sleeps 12.
The Space
This beachfront home sits 30 feet above a secluded sandy beach and is designed to make the most of the ocean views and fresh tropical breezes. At its center is an enormous, 50-foot-diameter open-air rancho perched above the ocean, along with a new pool overlooking the surf.
A private staircase leads down to the beach and nearby tide pools. Volcanic outcroppings just offshore create a natural breakwater and form several pools suitable for soaking.
The rancho offers a peaceful setting for relaxing with family and friends. Enjoy the ocean views from the hammocks, or prepare and share meals in the adjacent kitchen and custom-built dining area.

My family and I decided to take a getaway. We couldn't have found a better place. My grandparents, uncles and little cousins had a great time! Comfortable, beautiful views, great for swimming (when the tide is low), and the house manager is always attentive and friendly. We would definitely go again

Beautiful house to share with family and/or friends, comfortable beds, A/C in the bedrooms, incredible view, infinity pool, hammocks, etc. Nelson, the man who takes care of the place and works in maintenance, is a very friendly and very attentive man. We recommend this beautiful gem 100%. Recommendation: walk on the beach; there are beautiful natural pools. Thank you so much for having us. We'll be back, God willing 🙏🏽

MarAzul is awesome. The house and the location were exactly as described, maybe even better. Loved walking down to the beach and spending time in the pool watching the sunset. Jenelle and Nelson, the caretaker, are very responsive and helpful. I’m already looking forward to our next trip to Nicaragua and to MarAzul.

Casa Marazul is an absolutely stunning place that surrounded by raw nature. With the sound of the ocean crashing on the rocks at night and zero light pollution to see the stars over the ocean is incredible. The property caretaker on site is a wonderful man and keeps the place spotless. The Pool was cleaned daily. I would 100% recommend this location to anyone looking for peace and access to amazing surf just 7 min drive from the property.

Excellent place and service; Nelson, the caretaker, was very friendly and responded quickly to our needs. The place is very quiet and very clean; the rooms are comfortable. I would definitely go back without a second thought.

Casa Marazul is the perfect spot for a family vacation! We had our 7 month old with us and the protected tide pools in front of the house were perfect for him. It was also super walkable to surfing and only about 20-25 minutes to walk into town. We loved the pool but wished there was an umbrella stand that could give a little bit of shade in the pool. The outdoor living area was so nice and the kitchen was well equipped. A previous review had said there was a small fridge and no freezer but that has been changed and the fridge and freezer were great! Nelson the property caretaker was super helpful and friendly. We enjoyed having him around. Hopefully we will be back!

Amazing house!! Great views, a clean and well kept place. I went with my family of 6 and we all enjoyed so much, and hoping to be back. Easy to get to, about 2 hr drive from Managua, instructions were very clear on how to get there. Roads seem to be in pretty good shape, no need for a 4x4 (has happened to me before) We were able to get shrimp and lobster from the Acopios and it was very affordable. Nelson was very helpful and always ready to help.

Wow! Great house and Mr. Nelson's service was wonderful. I would recommend in future remodeling to put a roof over the pool for the sun and to purchase a freezer. The refrigerator is very small for large families and getting ice in town is a bit difficult. But we spent 4 wonderful days and Jennelle was a very good host. We hope to return!
