Ocean View

The Space

Welcome to your coastal sanctuary, a charming traditional home nestled in a luxurious Nicaraguan development. This spacious 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom residence spans two lots, providing ample room to relax and unwind in a secure, upscale community. Located just two minutes from the stunning Playa Rosada, it offers breathtaking ocean views and a peaceful retreat from the everyday hustle.

This home is designed for those who appreciate simplicity, timeless beauty, nature, and adventure. Since May 2023, it has been lovingly maintained by our family and, like many homes in Nicaragua, it has its unique characteristics.

Important Details to Know

• There is no television, but high-speed fiber optic internet is available for streaming on your personal devices.
• A dishwasher is not provided; however, a cleaning service is offered three times per week. This can be adjusted if you prefer more privacy.
• The home includes a washer but no dryer. Clothes are air-dried on a line. Guests can either hand wash and hang clothes themselves or request the housekeeper’s assistance.
• Part of the house is open-air, which means occasional visits from small wildlife. To avoid nighttime visits, keep all food sealed and stored in the kitchen.

Local Considerations

• Power outages may occur unpredictably. A battery backup supports most appliances, but air conditioning is not included.
• Grocery shopping might require visits to multiple stores. Please contact your host for recommendations to simplify your stay.
• The natural surroundings mean you may encounter mosquitoes, spiders, raccoons, and feral cats, which are generally harmless.
• It is common to see cows, pigs, dogs, or chickens crossing roads around town, sometimes causing brief traffic delays.
• The local cuisine focuses on relaxed vibes and beautiful beach sunsets rather than gourmet dining. We provide many tasty dining recommendations, though it differs from the culinary scene in places like San Francisco.

This is our family home shared with care, not a luxury hotel. The pricing reflects these authentic aspects and the exclusive access to Rancho Santana.
