3BR luxury villa in San Juan del Sur

Casa Colibri,luxury villa in town w/private pool - Villas for Rent in San Juan del Sur, Rivas, Nicaragua

Staying at Mary’s house was a pleasure. She had helpful communication during our whole stay. Although our stay was short, we thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful house and city. The house was welcoming, very clean, and we felt extremely safe our whole stay. I’d definitely recommend this place for any travelers coming to Nicaragua.

Mary Jane and Casa Colibri were great!!!  the place was better than the photos - great space for our group and loved hanging by the pool - Mary Jane was communicative and provided great recommendations / connections to great restaurants, surf rentals and transport.  Would definitely go back.

A really great experience – highly recommended

We had a wonderful stay at Casa Colibri! A gracious, kind, and helpful host in Mary Jane; a wonderful house full of art from all over the world; an invigorating pool that kept the kids engaged; and a central location. What more could one ask? We can't wait to return!

Mary Jane was a pleasure to deal with, very responsive and friendly, really nice pool and very spacious place.  central to everything.

Mary Jane was flexible, accommodating and very helpful throughout our stay, providing us with local recommendations and making sure we felt right at home. The home is great for short or longer term stays - it is even more beautiful than the photos suggest. It is spacious yet intimate, and designed in a way that feels both curated and deeply personal. Every detail tells a story… pieces gathered from travels, antiques and hints of different cultures make it a character-filled space that is warm and inviting. The outdoor space gets both sun and shade, perfect for lounging and swimming all day. This is a home that is truly loved, meticulously cleaned, and well-maintained. We would wholeheartedly recommend this special place to anyone staying in SJDS. Thank you again for such a memorable experience!

I’m already thinking about the next trip and hopeful this beautiful casa will be available. Mary Jane is a fantastic host and I highly recommend to all. Big ups.

This was “home away from home”… Mary Jane is a delight , so sweet, friendly and accomodating. Kitchen was well equipped with everything you might need . Bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious and beds are very comfortable. The outdoor area was just what I needed to relax in the mornings with my Italian espresso !! We had a very pleasant stay and will for sure come back in the near future. Thank you Mary Jane!

We spent 10 days at Mary Jane’s place and overall had a great time. The bedrooms all have A/C, the showers are great, the pool is lovely, there is fresh water, and the location is perfect. Just a few steps from many restaurants and shops as well as the beach. The place felt very safe, and Mary Jane was very responsive. There were a few things that were missing or broken that were necessary for a 10 day stay, but Mary Jane quickly supplied us with what we needed. We were informed of a toilet that didn’t work properly when we first arrived, but it never actually functioned unfortunately. There are multiple Airbnb’s in this compound and this one is the closest to the road, so we did get very loud road noise all day as it’s next to a main road, so if you’re in the pool area you will hear traffic. However at night it was very quiet.

Everything was perfect, I would highly recommend Casa Colibri. Thank you Mary!

Tout était parfait, je recommande fortement la casa colibri. Merci Mary!

The host Mary Jane was absolutely amazing. The Airbnb was beautiful, the photos did not do it justice. The house was roomy and the decor was very nice. It was in a closed off gate and private with a guard on duty every night. Mary sent so many awesome recommendations for us to go and eat. She even arranged taxis for us and was super responsive. She was very nice with my family and personable, she remembered every little details about them and accommodated my grandmother. I will definitely be back and I couldn’t recommend her enough! 10/10 experience

My experience at Mary's house was the best by far, my family feel like at home, a super comfortable house with everything you need to spend a few good days in San Juan del Sur. I spent three nights and they were great, the main thing was that my family enjoyed it, the super cool pool, my daughter enjoyed it, highly recommended Mary, a super kind and dear person, helps you with everything you need. When I return to San Juan del Sur, I would definitely return to Mary's house.

It was lovely staying at Mary Jane’s home in SJDS. It was our first time in the town, and luckily we were there during Semana Santa (week leading up to Easter) and we love to partake in the nightlife scene! There was tons to do and the Nicas definitely know how to have a good time. It was great that the home was in the heart of town yet it was quiet and secluded in its own way. The pool was refreshing and fun, especially after a hot day. The nearby restaurant Dale Pues quickly became our go-to, with its delicious food and low prices. Mary Jane was very helpful in setting up transportation, excursions, and restaurant recommendations. We loved going to Ometepe and Playa Hermosa. Thanks Mary Jane!!

The house and grounds are so clean. And not "fake clean" like some places that spray fragrance and call it clean. Everything is spotlessly clean without added chemicals and scents. Its an exciting place to stay. Casa Colibri is in the front of Mary Jane's gorgeous compound near the street. It's fun b/c you have a chance to meet the other guests coming and going, pet the 3 doggos, meet your awesome hosts coming and going and Mary Jane is always there to be sure you have everything you need. She is an invaluable source of information on SJDS. The bedrooms have A/C which is a life saver. It's hot! I grew to love it. Another thing I love about the country is that electricity is a luxury - for everyone. As it should be. There is no wastefulness. We had the fridge plugged in and ran the A/C in the bedrooms and still went over our allotment. It was our first trip to Nicaragua so we were learning. Mary Jane was awesome to not make us pay the extra fee. Location is awesome! Pool is bliss!

We loved Mary Jane's house,, it is right in the center of everything that goes on in San Juan Del Sur, and yet is a very private haven within the city.  The house is very beautiful, well maintained,  and well furnished.   We enjoyed the using the kitchen and swimming in the pool.  The bathrooms were immaculately clean and modern. The bed we slept in was very comfortable and the linens were top notch.  We enjoyed our stay very much and would stay with Mary Jane again.

It was a pleasure to stay at your place, we enjoyed every single day, we’re happy to come back you place

You can’t get a better location in SJDS! What a gem. No hills to walk and no loud bars or night clubs. Great pool, the house is huge and clean with great WiFi. Comfortable beds, and Mary Jane is very lovely and knowledgeable about the area.

Thank you Sam for staying with us, it was lovely meeting you amd you're beautiful family welcome back anytime 😊

We had amazing experience!  The house was great.  It was beautiful, centrally located, and even better than we expected. Even though we were right in town the house made us feel secluded. The pool was lovely, the beds were comfortable, and the showers had hot water and  good water pressure (not what we found throughout the rest of the country). But what really made the experience great was Mary Jane - she had so helpful and friendly.  She made sure we had everything we needed and checked on us several times.  I can’t imagine a better way experience in San Juan del Sur.

three friends stayed at the start of December as part of a 15 day trip round Nicaragua and as all the other places were hotels  we fancied our own space. Casa Colibri is wonderful, seems larger than the photos and loads of space, 3big double bedrooms, all ensuite, fans and AC. we rarely used this. the living room is a great size, comfortable and overlooks the pool. there was a coffee machine and coffee provided which was a nice touch. the pool was cleaned daily. so loved the house. Mary Jane the host is fantastic. quick responses, helpful, good eating recommendations and knew about transport to local beaches. she met us when we arrived and showed us round which we found helpful. any queries we had were instantly replied to. felt this was a lovely oasis. security guard at front and locked gates. we had no issues with safety in Nicaragua so the security was just comforting. it is so close to good eating places, bars, shops, market & beach. we loved our stay and Mary Jane is a fab host.

It was a gorgeous home, larger than what it seemed in the pictures. Very walkable to anything you need, right in the centre of town and few minutes to the beach. Mary Jane was very kind and personable and she lives behind the casa. We had all the privacy we needed yet also accessible to the host if anything came up. The pool was wonderful and my young child had a blast! The rooms were comfy and large. Also a very well stocked kitchen! Since it’s in the city you can hear the hustle of San Juan but once the windows are closed you are in total quietness. Will definitely be back and will be honoured to be back at casa colibri :)

Mary Jane has a wonderfull place to enjoy san juan del sur. She is really helpful and cares about the interests of every guest.

I have been to many places around the world. But Mary Jane made us all feel like we were really at home. A clean house with all the amenities and great staff. Just as advertised. I highly recommend her beautiful house.

Mary Jane is a great host and the location is perfect! The house is big and well equipped. I’d recommend it for a holiday stay in San Juan del Sur!

Walking distance from bars/restaurant. House was clean and the host was on point. Very safe area would definitely recommend and repeat in the near future.

For everyone who is thinking of visiting Casa Colibrí; I tell you that you will not regret it! The house is very beautiful and comfortable, the location is perfect because it is inside the village and everything is within walking distance, our hosts were very friendly Mary and her husband allowed us to have our space but they were always attentive to us. The proximity of them is a plus of the house, the house has three very comfortable and spacious rooms, one of them on the first floor which was ideal for my group!

Para todos los que estén pensando visitar Casa Colibrí; les digo que no se arrepentirán!, la casa es muy hermosa y cómoda, la ubicación es perfecta pues está dentro del pueblo y todo está a poca distancia a pie, nuestros anfitriones fueron muy cordiales Mary y su esposo nos permitieron tener nuestro espacio pero siempre estuvieron pendientes de nosotros la proximidad de ellos es un plus de la casa, la casa tienes tres habitaciones muy cómodas y espaciosas, una de ellas en la primera planta lo cual fue ideal para mi grupo!

Mary Jane is wonderful. Casa Colibri is a beautiful house that is perfectly located . The place is clean, stylish and has everything you could need to have a great time.  This was my third time staying there with my family and we will definitely be back!

I recommend it because the service is exquisite and it is very close to the beach and the party area

La recomiendo porque el trato es exquisito y está muy cerca de la playa y de la zona de fiesta

Great place, with great amenities. Close to town with a 3 min walking distance from the bars.

We have stayed in a couple other places in SJDS and none can compare to this home.  The location is perfect with everything within walking distance.  It is a beautiful home that is well decorated with many amenities not commonly found in other rentals.  It is a garden oasis to escape from the hustle and bustle of SJDS.  There is air conditioning if needed to sleep, however the design of the home and fans did a wonderful job.  Mary Jane is a terrific host who promptly responded to any inquiry.   She lives on the property and it was a pleasure chatting with her on the few occasions that we saw her.  Her pets were a bonus as we were missing ours.  There is also a friendly and helpful caretaker, Anthony, who was very patient with our inability to speak Spanish.  Overall it felt like you were visiting a friend's home, and we are hoping to return soon.

My friends and I had an amazing time at Mary Jane’s place ‘Casa Colibri’. Pictures don’t do it justice, this place is truly gorgeous and it has the perfect location in the heart of town, walking distance to restaurants, bars and nightlife. Mary Jane is the most thoughtful, gracious host. She provided us with all the information we needed and showed us around. She also had excellent restaurant/bar recommendations and was of great help. She went way beyond to make our weekend comfortable and memorable. 5 stars without a doubt Thanks for a lovely weekend! We will be back! - Daniela D. Marin

Mary Jane's place is perfectly located for those who want to enjoy the nightlife, restaurants, and cafes of SJDS (all within walking distance!) while still being a short drive from some of Nicaragua's best beaches.  It's a perfect location and a lovely house!  I definitely recommend it and will be back the next time I'm in town.

This house is well appointed and spacious. The kitchen had everything we needed and the air conditioners in the bedrooms really helped in cooling off the days heat and allowing for a comfortable nights sleep. The house is located on a fairly busy street that connects the town to the main road out. So expect a little noise and excitement. 

Richard and his family were lovely guests so I was saddened by what he wrote  Regarding the noise etc  The week Richard stayed San Juan was  celebrating the church's celebration of Santa Carmen and therefore there were celebrations in the town with streetparty's etc,if you read my other reviews no one has ever mentìoned noise. Just unfortunate maybe the wrong week. This is the quieter part of town.  The house is very spacious airy lovely air flow and the a house is always a cool temperature. There is some humidity at this time of the year and where Richard is from he said totally different temperature. And personally I think the weather at this time of year is wonderful nice temperature during the day and cool in the evenings.  Just wanted to point that out because it a shame if one takes his comments literally. This is his surfer son's second time staying at our home which he mentìoned was a perfect place to stay. All the best  and warm regards Mary Jane

Mary Jane has a piece of paradise right in town. We walked everywhere, and she gave us lots of great tips. She lives behind this property and you wouldn't know it. She showed up when needed, and respected our privacy. The home is absolutely beautiful and so spacious. The cleanest place in Nicaragua! Most of all, Mary Jane was an amazing hostess. We both liked chatting with her. She's sweet, caring and considerate. We will definitely stay with her again. Amber and Brian Seattle, Wa.

We really appreciate all the "extra's"  Mary Jane did for us....including arranging a seamless airport/border transfer from Costa Rica,  as well as making sure we were well supplied with food and drink upon check in.  We will definitely recommend this home to our friends and family for future trips, it was amazing value and her home is truly lovely.  The house itself is right in town, making it super easy to access anything and everything in SJDS.  There are numerous lovely beaches just a short cab ride away, be sure to visit these as the town beach is fine, but pales in comparison to the neighbouring ones.  Mary Jane is always accessible, she lives on the compound, and she is very willing to share with you all her local knowledge and tips.  We would re-visit again in a heartbeat.

We loved MJs place! Beautiful pool...Great location...Comfortable beds. We will definitely be returning!

There are so many amazing things about Mary Jane and her home we would like to mention. I'll start with the home itself. The house is located right in town close to everything. Super convenient!. The home is immaculate. beautiful design. Furniture, art and lighting all so tasteful. To be fair, I almost thought too nice for a "rental home". It feels like a real "home". Outside area by the pool is perfect. Kids loved the pool. The 2nd floor covered patio was perfect for happy hour. As for Mary Jane. She is the kindest host we have ever come across and we have met some great people in our travels. From arranging shuttle services for us to making sure the house was cleaned up each day while we were out each day. What really made a lasting impression on us was when our 3-year-old daughter fell at the park and really hurt her arm. Mary Jane drove my wife and daughter to Rivas, 25 minutes away, to help us get a x-ray and see two specialists. Without Mary Jane's local knowledge, car, language skills and general kindness, we could have had a really tough time getting care for our daughter. For that, we are forever grateful. We would recommend Mary Jane's home to anyone and everyone. It is a very special place and Mary Jane and her husband are very people. Can't wait to go back!

Casa Colibri is the perfect place to stay in San Juan del Sur. It’s secluded but walkable to all of the shops and restaurants in the city. It’s the perfect escape for travelers that want to be close to everything but rest on a quiet street. The host and her staff were lovely and made us feel very welcome. A great time, highly recommended.

Mary Janes place is so great! Right in town but away from the center of things that provides you enough privacy but also walkability to anything you want to do! She was an amazing host offering to help arrange anything or provide suggestions for us!

Mary Jane is lovely and welcomed us despite a late arrival. She arranged our ground transport, which was perfect. The house is great! It's clean, spacious, and the location is just terrific. It's a short walk to the beach and restaurants. I'd definitely rent again if in San Juan del Sur.

This is our second time renting from Mary Jane and it's always a pleasure. Both houses are very nice spacious and very well furnished Casa Colibri is on the street so less quiet but cooler. We appreciate the welcome of Mary Jane, her family and her team, both discreet and very attentive We'll probably be back soon

C’est le deuxième fois que nous louons chez Mary Jane et c’est toujours un plaisir. Les deux maisons sont très agréables spacieuses et très bien emménagées Casa Colibri est sur la rue donc moins au calme mais plus fraîche. Nous apprécions beaucoup l’accueil de Mary Jane, de sa famille et de son équipe à la fois discrète et très attentifs Nous retournerons sans doute bientôt

Mary Jane's place was centrally located, beautifully decorated with a pool. The groundsmen + the housekeeper on the property were very nice and we were able to easily walk into town. I recommend this house!

Mary Jane went above and beyond as a host! The pictures didn't do her home justice! As the home is beautiful and the pool clean as can be!! Walking distance to Central San Juan and did not need to use our rental. My sister flew in a day later and Mary Jane helped arranged a driver to pick her up from the airport and bring her safely. Don't hesitate on choosing her place for your next vacation!

Hi Mary Jane Thank you so much for your hospitality. You and your staff made our stay as relax, smooth and joyfull as it can get. We are defenetly coming back and letting our friends know about your beautiful home.

We really enjoyed our stay at Casa Colibri. Our children (12,9 and 5) loved the pool! The house was really lovely and exceeded our expectations. It was very close to the centre of San Juan (5 minutes to the beach and restaurants) but was secluded enough to give us some privacy and seclusion.  Mary Jane was a great host and made time to give us recommendations and make sure our stay was relaxing and enjoyable. We would definitely stay again!

A group of 5 of us decided to stay here for a few days of our week off in Nicaragua and couldn't have been more pleased. The property is gorgeous with plenty of space, a great kitchen for cooking, pool for relaxing, and living room and balcony for hanging out. The staff was incredible and Mary Jane was a great host, always available to answer questions and give advice. We definitely recommend it!

What a beautiful home and wonderful town. Highly recommended

Absolutely beautiful home with great staff. Everyone was very helpful and so nice. The animals were so sweet! The house itself was very clean, beautiful and a wonderful spot to come home to. We will definitely be back! Thank you! 

What a beautiful place and so close to the town center.  I found myself taking a quick dip in between hopping from venue to venue.  The house was so wonderful that we ended up spending way more time than I expected just chilling by the poolside.   Mary Jane was lovely to deal and interact with.  I would stay there again for sure!

I would definitely come back to this place, ideal location, spacious spaces, spectacular rooms, if you want a place to spend as a family with all the comforts in San Juan del Sur "Casa Colibrí" is your best option. The hosts are very nice and always on the lookout. Thanks Mary Jane / Gianmaria!!

Definitivamente volvería a este lugar, ubicación idónea, espacios amplios, cuartos espectaculares, si quieres un lugar para pasar en familia con todas las comodidades en San Juan del Sur "Casa Colibrí" es tu mejor opción. Los anfitriones son muy amables y están siempre pendientes. Gracias Mary Jane / Gianmaria!!

Our stay at Casa Colibri was great! Mary Jane is very nice and always ready to help in any way she can.  The house is absolutely beautiful, more than you can see in the pictures.  Location is great; close to everything but don't get all the noise from town.  Really recomend it!

This house is beautiful, warm & welcoming. Lovely people & staff. Great location & amenities. Highly recommend it. We would definitely return to this home. Thankful for the experience.

Casa Colibri was simply paradise. We were a group of four friends from looking to relax, enjoy nightlife, and celebrate the Easter holiday together. First, let me say how kind and helpful Mary Jane and her husband were. Although Mary Jane was out of town, she was always on hand at a moments notice. From arranging van transportation for our group to highlighting cultural areas of town/surrounding areas, everything was taken care of with ease. The accommodations were delightful. With temperatures in SDJS around 85-95 degrees (not humid though and a great ocean breeze), having a pool in our front yard was divine. The evening security guard, Francisco, was a delightful man who always had a smile on his face and allowed us to enjoy the balmy evening breeze with no intrusion. The home is located about 5 minutes walking to the main beach (although Mary Jane and her family/staff can suggest other beaches to visit, which I highly recommend!) and bar/restaurant area. Perfect for all of our needs, as each morning we were able to embark on coffee and breakfast expeditions without fear or concern (and tasty options aplenty). The interior of the home was fantastic. With large beds and a beautiful en-suite bathroom in each room, no guest felt as though they received the "short end" of the stick (although I am partial to the first room floor with beautiful windows!) The upstairs balcony and grand living room were such a bonus. This was a dream rental for our vacation needs and I look forward to not only suggesting Casa Colibri to my friends, but returning again for another visit. Best wishes to all, you cannot go wrong with this rental!

Beautiful spacious home in the middle of town. 5 min walk to the beach and less to all the main bars and restaurants. Secured location with gate and night time security. We had 6 friends stay and we had plenty of space to hang out and to have private time. Fully equipped kitchen, speakers, pool, daily cleaners, air conditioning, books, 4 bathrooms, dvds (only in spanish), talking parrot are all included features. The noise of the street can be hear from the pool but the rooms were quiet. 2 king beds and 1 double all with ensuite. Host gave recommendations and advice for getting to the place, although we organised our own activities etc. Host was quick to respond to messages. Host accommodated our travel plans and enabled us to check in earlier than 3. Would recommend.

Mary Jane was an absolutely amazing host! Her and her staff were all extremely helpful to everything we needed! The house was amazing, and very well kept up. It is the perfect location to everything in town and extremely safe. The pool was the perfect thing to come home to after a day at the beach! We will definitely be returning to stay again! Thanks so much for a great stay!!

Our stay in San Juan Del Sur was fabulous. We could not have found more comfortable accomodations or a more helpful host. The house is extremely well laid out and was designed to maximize air flow and comfort. The layout accomodates the interaction and privacy needs and desires of guests. The pool and the balcony offer midday respite from the heat. The home was gorgeous and clean. The hosts and their staff were warm, friendly, and eager to please. Several wonderful restaurants were only a short walk away. While in San Juan, I recommend taking a taxi to visit the Christ of Mercy statue. The views from the top are incredible. The owner's pets added to our joy. (But, they are housed in a manner that non-pet lovers can avoid interaction.) The property is perfect in every way! I could not have asked for better hospitality!

The house is large, modern and tastefully furnished. The three large bedrooms each have their own bathroom. The pool is clean and pleasant to take a little dip at any time. The hosts were attentive and very welcoming. Thank you very much!

La maison est grande, moderne et meublé avec goût. Les trois grandes chambres ont chacune leur propre salle de bains. La piscine et propre et agréable pour faire un petit plongeon à tout moment. Les hôtes étaient pleins d'attention et très accueillants. Merci de tout coeur !

We stayed at Mary's place for 3 nights in February and absolutely loved it. We were not expecting it to be so nice and modern. It is decorated to a great standard with a fully stocked kitchen. The bedrooms are all a great size and everything is spotlessly clean. After travelling for awhile it was a great treat to stay here. We wish we could have stayed longer. The pool is great and we loved sitting around it in the afternoons. We spent most evenings chilling out on the terrace upstairs. Everything is within walking distance and the location is great. Mary is super helpful and can not do enough for you. All her recommendations for eating and enjoying San Juan Del Sur were great. Book it, you won't be disappointed!

Mary Jane was great to communicate with and the home was fantastic. The location was perfect; with in walking distance of everything great about San Juan Del Sur. Was perfect for our family. The staff was wonderful and very helpful. Would highly recommend staying and hope to return!!

Beautiful home in perfect location, easy walk to everything needed in SJDS. Exteremely spacious throughout with indoor and outdoor entertaining/relaxing areas. All bedrooms are huge with comfortable beds and each with an ensuite. Topped off with a private pool which we made good use of. Our stay was better than we could have hoped for anywhere else. Hosts, Mary Jane and her husband went out of their way to make sure we were taken care of, along with the maid and security guards. Highly recommended, 10/10 stay.

The house was beautiful! Mary Jane was so helpful and easy to get ahold of. Staff was kind and available. Very clean, and central location made it easy to walk through town. 

Casa Colobri was wonderful and exceeded our expectations! Everyone was really nice and the extra daily cleaning and surveillance was a great extra! The pets were also sweet and enjoyable to have around. I would stay here again and recommend it to all!

Mary Jane's husband met us as we rolled in at 1am after a long travel day. Even with a pending hurricane and a false warning of a potential tsunami our family had a great time in SJDS. Great space close to everything. 

Great location and home. Easy walking distance for everything we wanted to do. Mary Jane and her staff were very helpful and made our stay nice.  Wifi in Nicaragua is quite slow and mosquitoes around during rainy season so come prepared.

The property was absolutely perfect! The photos don't even do it justice. Comfortable rooms, great pool area, well equipped kitchen. Mary Jane was an excellent hostess. The house is conveniently near stores, bars, and the beach. We will definitely return. 

This place is PERFECT! We weren't sure just how close to the shops/restaurants of town this house was when we booked it, but once we got there, we were so pleasantly surprised to find out it is literally STEPS from downtown! The house is also much more beautiful than we imagined. Super clean, lovely rooms, and the pool is so nice for taking a dip after walking around in the heat. There are also a few very friendly dogs, a cat, and a bird, which was an extra treat!   As for the host, Mary Jane, she was AMAZING. Unbelievably helpful and so quick to respond to messages. She helped set up a taxi service for us the day we had to leave, and since we had a whole day to kill, she arranged for the driver to take us sight seeing before going to the airport.   If you are on the fence about booking this place, just read all of Mary Jane's other 5 star reviews! You won't be disappointed.

We felt welcomed like royalty. Mary Jane was in touch regularly and offered to arrange transportation from the airport. Her husband, a true gentleman, met us at the gate of their magnificent villa, even though it was very late at night and he had to travel 2+ hours to be there. I was beyond impressed and touched.  I loved so much about it I don't know where to begin. The villa and the grounds are stunning, expansive, peaceful and oh so comfortable. Their is, a security guard, Francesco, on the premises almost constantly, day and night who treated us like a father, unlocking the gate for all of us at all hours always with a warm smile on his father. There is daily housekeeping (Laura, another sweetheart) which meant the place is spotless and neat always. Ricardo sees to the magnificent pool and the grounds and lovely flowers and shrubs daily. And to top it all off, the LOCATION. It is smack in the middle of all the action in this very popular beach town filled with tourists from all the place. It was around the corner from our synagogue, the Chabad of Nicaragua, which was very important to us since we spent the Passover holidays there. And a quick 2 short blocks to the beach which we loved. It is clean and filled with nice people. We felt no need to travel to other neighboring beaches which we heard were even more beautiful.

Mary Jane was simply the best host I've had and her security,  maintenance and cleaning staff was top notch! Casa Colibrí was amazing, just as advertised. A great place to relax and feel safe. My family stayed for 3 nights and Mary Jane arranged transportation to and from the house. She called to welcome us and took special care to see we had everything we needed. We were able to walk to all the restaurants and tours quite easily from the house. Mary Jane checked on us daily and was so helpful with suggestions and where to eat and which beaches to go to. She was very responsive to questions and she did all of this despite being out of town at the time. The cat, dogs and bird were all friendly and made the house feel like a home. Would definitely stay here again!

Mary Jane and her home represent the best experience I've ever had on AirBNB. She made us feel welcome by helping arrange transportation from the Managua airport, telling us about excursions we might enjoy and having her husband meet us for a late arrival. The house is fantastic! Beautiful opens spaces, a perfectly clean, refreshing pool, and large kitchen for preparing meals. The hammock on the upper balcony was especially nice. The pictures shown don't do justice to this beautiful home!   In addition to enjoying a beautiful home in the heart of San Juan Del Sur, we had the pleasure of meeting and spending time Mary Jane and her family--we will certainly keep in touch and look forward to seeing one another again soon.

The neighborhood was perfect, close to the beach and stores but also quiet. Mary Jane's husband greeted us upon arrival and Mary Jane called to check in with us. The house is beautiful and incredible.

Mary Jane's beautiful Casa Colibri is THE place to be in San Juan! Not only is it right in town and have amazing access to the beach, restaurants, and anything you'd need - it is beautifully appointed, clean, modern, and exquisite. Mary Jane is extremely attentive and provides suggestions of what to do, where to go, where to eat. The house comes with an amazing maid, Laura, who can help you with a number of things and a very lovely 24/hr security guy too to make sure all is under control (not that you need him, it's really safe).   Mary Jane even helped us with arranging groceries, wine, etc before our arrival, or taxi service and a number of other helpful things. The pool is gorgeous and cleaned everyday, their decorations are worldly and tasteful! The bedrooms each have a modern en suite! I couldn't rave enough about this place! It was absolutely perfect and we will be staying there again next time we are in town!!!!

Our host was so welcoming and checked on us frequently. She was full of good suggestions for beaches and restaurants in town (and the other cities). The pictures don't do the place justice. It was absolutely beautiful and exactly what we wanted. We were a quick walk to anything we needed... Market, restaurants, yoga, surf shop.

The pool was an awesome touch . The pictures does not do it justice . A must see n stay in person. No complaints . Again an amaaaazing serene n detailed with love HOME.

Casa Colibri is the single best place to stay in San Juan. The home is beautiful, comfortable and convenient. We have stayed in many different places in the area and absolutely nothing compared to it. So safe and peaceful but literally a 2 minute walk to anything in downtown. We didn't even need our car that often. The house was everything we wanted and more. Much, much more. Mary Jane was so accommodating, and the staff was amazing. They took care of everything so well and were on things as soon as we need them. Had an amazing week and hope we can go back! Do yourself a favor and stay at Casa Colibri when you visit SJDS. 

This is the second time I've stayed with Mary Jane - the last time I was in the back property, and this time I stayed in the property up front. Didn't think my experience at her last property could be topped, but this amazing house did it. The rooms are all large, bathrooms beautiful, amazing downstairs space, and of course, the pool that we used every day. Mary Jane even added a guitar we were able to use. I'd be remiss if I didn't mention Mary Jane's staff - Enrique kept the pool clean, and Laura kept the house clean, and both of them couldn't be more pleasant, friendly people. If you're lucky enough to have the opportunity to stay here, do yourself a favor and book it. 

Where should we start? Our stay in SJDS and at Casa Colibri was remarkable! Casa Colibri is a gorgeous house--spotlessly clean, casual and comfortable, quite and cool at night, bright and breezy during the day. The house is even more beautiful than it looks in the pictures. There's a great living room to sack out in after a long day of exploring: there's a TV with cable, couches, games, and books. If you're staying in for meals, you can gather around either the indoor or poolside dining tables. If you want to chill out, rock in a hammock, and sip a Victoria beer, you can hang out on the outdoor terrace off the upstairs bedrooms. Mary Jane has a conscientious and friendly staff taking care of everything at the house. Laura keeps the place immaculate; Enrique cleans the pools and grounds each morning; and Fidel, the night watchman, makes sure the houses (Casa Colibri and neighboring Casa Lakshmi) are safe. Mary Jane herself is the most warm and attentive host you could ask for. We arrived 12 hours later than expected due to flight issues, and Mary Jane had a pizza in the oven and a six pack of cold beers awaiting us after our long journey. She also arranged for a driver--the honest and safe Rudi--to pick us up and drive us back to the airport in Managua. While we are pretty self-sufficient travelers, Mary Jane offered to help us arrange any sort of outings we might want to enjoy while in SJDS and was available whenever we needed her during our 4 day stay. The house is in the perfect location. Since it's in town, you can walk to all shops and restaurants. We got breakfast each morning at the Black Cat Cafe, which is a 5 minute walk away. After ours days at the beach and our late afternoon dips the (private!) pool at the house, we would stroll to a beachfront restaurant for margaritas while watching the sunset. We ate at a different restaurant each night and were never disappointed--especially with the fact that we could eat and drink for hours and not have to worry about getting a taxi or shuttle to get back to our accommodations. Once we were in for the night, we felt totally safe; and while there are ambient sounds of wind and animals and life in SJDS, we did feel like were in a little private paradise at Casa Colibri. As for getting to the beaches: SJDS has several surf shops all within a couple of blocks from the house that will drop you off and pick you up at any of the nearby beaches. We did this on our first day, but decided to rent a car for our last 3 days, as we wanted to do some beach exploring on our own. You can stay at Casa Colibri and 100% be fine without a car, as you can very easily get a ride to any beaches or hang...
