Huvilat – Nicaragua

”The house was amazing, clean and wonderful. My family had an amazing experience. While we were in pool, the monkeys were sleeping above us in the trees. It was so much fun and we appreciate the experience.”

”We were a party of nine. Two families with kids ages 22, 17, 17, 15 and 13. This house exceeded our expectations. It was very spacious and the open air main floor was fantastic. I don’t think the pictures do it justice.. Access to the beach is terrific. You do have to walk a couple flights of stairs which was fine with us. The views are spectacular. The caretakers on site, Keyling and Meynor, were very helpful and will prepare meals for you if requested which is a nice option to have while on...

”It was a great value and a perfect place for a relatively large group like ours. The hostess was professional and courteous. The check-in process was smooth.

Crashing waves provide the perfect backdrop all day and night, and the beach was nearly deserted on weekdays.Maria and Manuel are attentive without ever being intrusive, and they invited us to witness the release of baby sea turtles they'd hatched on the property — an unforgettable experience. Maria also cooked our group a fresh snapper...

”Our experience at Mahalo was excellent! We travelled through Nicaragua for 3 weeks and Mahalo was the most beautiful place during our holiday. ”

”Beware! This property is not as advertised. The advertisement that the house is “Beachside” is a stretch. House is on top of a steep hill from the beach with multiple other houses between it and the beach. Some key pictures in the listing are outdated; for example, the listing picture of an ocean view from the first floor no longer applies as it appears to have been taken over 10 years ago before tree growth blocked the view. The home is advertised as inside Rancho Santana; however, what is not...

”My family had an amazing time during our Nicaraguan adventure. Trip of a lifetime.Pros:-Joel, he is wonderful and hospitable. He really goes above and beyond to ensure your stay is a positive experience. Ex: we lost power temporarily due to the wind (no one's fault but the wind) - he setup the generator as fast as he could. -Views, are breathtaking. The way the villa overseas the valley and the ocean. Sunrise and sunsets were magical. Also, you could hear the howling monkeys! I thought that was...
