The location of the house is ideal for celebrations, and the climate is quite pleasant due to the vegetation around the house.

La ubicacion de la casa es ideal para celebraciones, ademas de que el clima es bastante agradable por la vegetación alrededor de la casa.

A nice and quiet place. The beach is beautiful. We would definitely go again.

Un lugar lindo y tranquilo, la playa es hermosa. Definitivamente volveríamos a ir.

Loved this place so much the first time that we had to come back. Still the best beach house in the area. Great vibes, clean, and right on the water. We'll be back again for sure!

My stay was very good; the place was clean, tidy, and exactly as shown in the photos. The location is convenient and quiet, ideal for resting. The host was very friendly and always available in case we needed anything, which made the experience even better.

Mi estadía fue muy buena, el lugar estaba limpio, ordenado y tal como se muestra en las fotos. La ubicación es conveniente y tranquila, ideal para descansar. El anfitrión fue muy amable y siempre estuvo pendiente por si necesitábamos algo, lo cual hizo la experiencia aún mejor.

A comfortable and accessible place, close to the sea and offering privacy.

Un espacio cómodo y accesible, con cercanía al mar y privacidad.

Excellent stay, beautiful house with all the amenities; my family and I enjoyed it very much.  Quick and secure access to the beach. Very peaceful. We will definitely repeat the experience for more days.  Thank you so much for the nice service

Excelente estadía,  hermosa casa con todas la comodidades,  mi familia y yo disfrutamos muchísimo.  Acceso rápido y seguro a la playa. Mucha tranquilidad.  Sin duda repetiremos la experiencia por mas días.  Muchas gracias por la linda atención

Our stay at Leo’s place was just great! Very friendly welcome from Katy and excellent follow-up from her on our questions. Everything has already been said in other reviews. Recommended!

ons verblijf bij Leo was gewoon top! Zeer vriendelijke ontvangst door Katy en goede opvolging door haar bij onze vragen. Alles is al gezegd in andere recensies. Een aanrader!

We were met on the main road and escorted to the place.
The villa is much better in reality than in the photos.
The house is surrounded by trees ,there is shade everywhere and the ocean is within walking
distance. Very convenient kitchen, large refrigerator and toilet in each room.
A special treat is the open veranda with dining table and hammocks.
We were only two days, but we  highly recommend this place for  a holiday
Thank to the owner and co-host.

Pros: beautiful, practically deserted beach in less than 60 seconds out the back door.  Area is raw and practically untouched by commercialization.  Fabulous outdoor living area.   Hammocks, rocking chairs, etc.  Host provided a big jug of filtered water.  Iguanas.. kids lived seeing them! 
Cons/honest feedback:  house could use a good deep clean.  Some of the screens need replaced, as they have holes, allowing bugs to get in.  
Not a pro/con just as informational.. this is a pretty remote location.  We got held up and arrived later than expected and it was already quite dark.  Trying to find this place is the dark was a little sketch.  Dirt road in the middle of the jungle, pitch black.  Def want to bring food with you.  Only 1-2 restaurants that are somewhat close.  Food was just ok and high for Nica as most of their clientele are foreigners/vacationers.  Same with groceries.. very limited options and on the high side for Nica. 
All and all it was a good stay.  Positive experience.

We had a lovely stay. We only stayed for 3 days but would have stayed MUCH longer. We had a short walk to the beach. Though we could see the ocean, we could certainly hear it. We love the patio outside. It was great to have our morning coffee and afternoon rests. Great place!!

Amazing place! Really close to the beach, very private and well equipped. Lots of nature and beautiful animals. Leo and Katy were amazing and responsive. Will definitely come back.

Leo and his team were very attentive . Check-in and check-out was easy . The location is optimal and the house is really comfortable with air conditioning and good lighting . Recommended for a good rest .

Leo y su equipo estuvieron muy atentos . El check in y check out fue sencillo . La ubicación es óptima y la casa es realmente confortable con aire acondicionado y buena iluminación . Recomendable para un buen descanso .

It was a challenge in finding this place and extremely frustrating. It shows a town which is the county. Why not say the resort it is in, there is a guard at the gate and it is in San diago That was the biggest pain. But it an awesome place Also limited restaurant hours on site but a great one on the beach a short walk away and of course Alice’s Restaurant. Long walk of 5 minute drive Seems like a private beach. Wonderful However,awesome sleeping accommodations,2 bathrooms,great ac And the best place for ice!!! Freezer was perfect. Lots of room inside and out. And iguanas. A very special place. Highly recommend Thank you Would highly recommend this place Thank you

Great choice for anyone seeking a well-equipped house just steps from a virtually empty (and very clean) beach in a peaceful forest-like setting with lots of birds and iguanas. A few other vacation homes around but almost invisible from the house. One restaurant/ecolodge nearby but we prepared our own food. Excellent furnishings, very clean, reasonable internet connection.

Our stay was absolutely amazing! The beautiful peaceful surroundings, the birds singing in the trees, the sound of the ocean waves in the background made for an amazing relaxing experience! Definitely recommend it!

Very pleased with the cabana; location, proximity to beach and nearby restaurant.

Leo's place absolutely exceeded our expectations - the house is beautiful! It seems pretty new and we'll maintained. It has a huge outdoor terrace with hammocks, surrounded by a beautiful garden that gives you loads of privacy. The beach is 1 minute walking distance and very beautiful. Communication with Leo and Katy was great too. Will def come back 😊

Awesome place, close to the beach and very clean.

The house was very clean and comfortable. It was an excellent experience, my family really enjoyed it, especially we appreciated the tranquility and privacy that  was in this area, perfect for rest and relaxation. Leo was very agile and kind to answer and Katy her assistant was always attentive to our queries.

La casa estaba muy limpia y cómoda. Fue una excelente experiencia, mi familia lo disfruto mucho, especialmente apreciamos la tranquilidad y privacidad que  había en esta zona, perfecto para descansar y relajarse. Leo fue muy ágil y amable en contestar y Katy su asistente siempre estaba pendiente de nuestras consultas.

Everything was amazing. one of the best places I've stayed.

Todo estuvo increíble. uno de los mejores lugares donde me he hospedado.

Nice and comfortable house just steps from the beach.

Casa agradable y cómoda a tan solo unos pasos de la playa.

Lovely place in a very nice and quiet location

Best beach vacation I have had using Airbnb. The owner was quick to respond and the location was better than the photos and what we thought

I loved the accommodation, it's phenomenal, the quality of service it is, how equipped it is, and how close you have the beach. We will be back soon, no question.

Me encantó el alojamiento, es fenomenal, la calidad de servicio que es, lo equipado que está, y lo cerca que tienes la playa. Volveremos pronto, sin duda.

The cute place, indicated for rest and relaxation. Very clean, beautiful, pleasant and the people who attended us very friendly. The beach nearby and has everything for you to cook. Would definitely come back.

El lugar lindo, indicado para descanso y relax. Muy limpio, bonito, agradable y las personas que nos atendieron muy amables. La playa cerca y cuenta con todo para que cocines. Definitivamente volvería.

The house has a good value for money, the road is accessible in summer, but at other times a high vehicle will be necessary, the house lends all the conditions and the sea is almost in the garden, Alejandro was very attentive to any need at all times.

La casa tiene una buena relación precio calidad, el camino es accesible en verano, pero en otras épocas será necesario un vehículo alto, la casa presta todas las condiciones y el mar está casi en el jardín, Alejandro estuvo muy pendiente de cualquier necesidad en todo momento.

The place is beautiful with privacy , pleasant to walk. Host provides super clear instructions, suggestions for places nearby, and quick to respond

El lugar es bonito con privacidad , Agradable para caminar. El anfitrión brinda instrucciones súper claras, sugerencias de lugares cerca y contesta rápido

very good service, I recommend you to stop by the instructions in the store with your host, use Red Claro, Tigo is not there. Beach access is close by and very nice you can bathe, the beach is spacious without a lot of stone, internet inside the house is great Netflix, you tube, the A/C and the rest of the house very good.

muy buena atención, les recomiendo hacer caso de pasar por las instrucciones en la tiendita con su anfitrión, usen Red Claro, Tigo no hay. El acceso a la playa es cerca y muy bonito te puedes bañar, la playa es amplia sin mucha piedra, Internet dentro de la casa genial Netflix, you tube, el aire acondicionado y el resto de la casa muy bien.

10/10 , Everything met the expectations, the house was great well equipped. Our co-host, Alegrando was wonderful, as he gave clear instructions and recommendations. The place is extremely peaceful, private and surrounded by nature, great for walks and very near the beach. Come prepared as the nearest grocery store is 15 min away from the house. An amazing opportunity to enjoy, very close to Managua. I definitely will come back!

Very nice house, modern and comfortable, in a gorgeous setting. It just needs some maintenance. The house is not right on the beach but is a nice and short walk. There's shade, silence, and privacy. We'll be back for sure

Muy bonita casa, moderna y cómoda, en un entorno precioso. Solo necesita algo de mantenimiento. La casa no está a pie de playa pero es un paseo agradable y corto. Hay sombra, silencio y privacidad. Seguro volveremos

The place was very complete to be with your family, I was just for one night and I'm sorry I needed to enjoy

El lugar muy completo para estar en familia, fui solo por una noche y siento que me hizo falta disfrutar

I thought the place was excellent. I went to spend a few days with my family and everyone was delighted. The location of the accommodation is close to the beach, about 100 meters. Co-host Alejandro was very friendly and available at all times. It was definitely worth it. I recommend it

El lugar me pareció excelente. Fui a pasar unos días con mi familia y todos quedaron encantados. La ubicación del alojamiento está muy cerca de la playa, unos 100 mts. El coanfitrion Alejandro se porto muy amable y dispuesto en todo momento. Valió la pena definitivamente. Lo recomiendo

This house is wonderful. The photos don't do it justice. Everything was very clean. In it there is everything you need to cook. there were enough towels, sheets and sheets. The beach is spectacular. Completely private. You should know that the house is located on a property where there are other homes and also a restaurant. Each one far enough away from each other to ensure your privacy. The property has 24 hour security. If you go for several days I recommend bringing the necessary as the nearest store is about a 15 minute drive. There is also a small restaurant and they have delivery service for a reasonable price. We loved the experience on this Airbnb! We'll definitely be back.

Esta casa es maravillosa. Las fotos no le hacen justicia. Todo muy limpio. En ella hay lo necesario para cocinar. había suficientes toallas, sábanas y almohadas. La playa es espectacular. Completamente privada. Debes saber que la casa está ubicada en una finca en la que hay otras viviendas y también un restaurante. Cada una lo suficientemente distante de la otra como para garantizar tu privacidad. La propiedad cuenta con seguridad las 24 horas. Si vas por varios días te recomiendo llevar lo necesario, ya que la tienda más cercana está a unos 15 minutos en vehículo. Ahí también hay un pequeño restaurante y tienen servicio de delivery por un precio razonable. Nos encantó la experiencia en este Aerbnb! Definitivamente, regresaremos.

We had the most amazing time at this house. We originally booked for 4 nights and after being there just a couple of hours we extended for 2 weeks. The house was beautiful and the porch was amazing. It was clean and well stocked, with plenty of room for our family if 4. The jungle setting and close proximity to the beach and surf was ideal. It’s pretty remote so we would suggest bringing in your groceries from the city. There is a restaurant very close with good food and surf rentals/lessons etc. Katy, the house manager, was lovely and had great attention to detail. Alejandro, our host, could not have been better. He was friendly, welcoming and always quick to respond. We can’t say enough good things about this home and hope we will have a chance to visit again.

The beach is close and the house is comfortable

La playa queda cerca y la casa es cómoda

I loved it, the house is beautiful and comfortable, it meets all the details of the listing, if it is 1 km of rough street recommendation to arrive in a van, the food in the restaurant is delicious, the very friendly people and the beach is beautiful and empty, great privacy! Lots of shells and snails for people who love picking up conchitas! Beautiful experience I recommend arriving more than 3 days so that you can fully relax! 20/10

Me encantó, la casa es hermosa y cómoda, cumple con todos los detalles del anuncio, si es 1 km de calle accidentada recomendación de llegar en camioneta, la comida en el restaurante deliciosa, la gente muy amable y la playa es hermosa y vacía, gran privacidad! muchísimas conchitas y caracoles para las personas que le encantan recoger conchitas! Hermosa experiencia recomiendo llegar más de 3 días para que se relajen completamente! 20/10

Excellent place to go family and disconnect from the hectic life of the city, the beautiful house and the beach loved it, we had an amazing time!!

Excelente lugar para ir familia y desconectarte de la vida agitada de la ciudad, la casa hermosa y la playa me encantó, la pasamos increíble!!
