Fort Walker (Beachfront House)
Fall in love with this beachfront villa located in the heart of Nicaragua’s Emerald Coast. This unique beach home offers unbeatable location, breathtaking views, and easy access to a variety of activities. It is perfect for families, retreats, and beach lovers seeking luxury at an affordable price.
This property is especially popular among surfers who enjoy the consistent offshore winds that shape the fast and powerful barrels at Playa Colorado and the rolling peaks at Panga Drops.
Please note that the base rate covers up to 4 guests. There is an additional charge of $50 per night for each extra guest, up to a maximum of 8 people.
Enjoy sunsets from one of two spacious oceanfront covered patios. Start your mornings with coffee on the second-floor sun deck while watching the sunrise. Relax with a cold drink as you observe the surf, or swim laps in one of the largest residential pools on the coast.
The Fort Walker home design offers a fresh and modern take on traditional colonial architecture inspired by the Iberian Peninsula and common throughout Latin America. The house incorporates locally sourced flagstone (notably on the south wall of the great room), colorful stamped tile, handcrafted ironwork, unique artwork, and tropical hardwood furniture to create a grand yet inviting atmosphere.
The living, dining, and kitchen areas share an open floor plan, encouraging shared experiences and socializing.
Please note this listing is for renting the house only, without the guest studio. If the guest cottage is not rented, it may be occupied by another group who will access the beach via a pathway beside the house.
For the comfort and safety of all guests, gatherings of more than 20 people on the property (house, pool, patio) are prohibited. The septic system and house are not designed for large events. A $500 fine will be imposed if this rule is violated.
This home is situated within the Hacienda Iguana development, renowned for its world-class surf breaks. Four surf spots are within walking distance: Playa Colorado, Panga Drops, Los Perros, and Playa Amarillo (walkable at low tide).
The community also features a beautiful 9-hole golf course that is well-maintained, thoughtfully designed, and affordable for guests.
