Playa El Coco - Beautiful Townhome on the Beach

San Juan del Sur villa

  • 4 bedrooms
  • 3 bathrooms
  • sleeps 8

“Great beach, nice pool, spacious modern condo on the ocean.” Playa el Coco Townhome, Playa el Coco, Nicaragua, Dec 11-18,2013. An amazingly beautiful unspoiled Pacific coast beach in the south of Nicaragua about a half hour from San Juan del Sur. A lovely townhouse complex - quiet, beautiful gardens, a shared pool, right on the beach. Great security. Very helpful staff at the front gate, who helped us find someone to come and cook and clean up for a few hours a day at a very reasonable rate. Also the owner of our townhouse lives nearby on the same property and helped us find someone to drive us to town and to see the turtles. Our 4 bedroom townhouse was spacious and modern, with central air conditioning and a big living room. Really good beds, bedding, pillows. Modern kitchen. The complex is all concrete so no noise from other units, though within our unit, our family could create quite a racket in the living area - just normal family life. Our extended family of eight (parents, 3 children, 3 grandparents) rented for the second week of December 2013. The best part was the beach - the waves were great for the kids to play in, big enough for boogie-boards. Real surfing available on nearby beaches.

Malinche Remanso House, San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua

San Juan del Sur house

  • 3 bedrooms
  • 2 bathrooms
  • sleeps 6

“Your dreams come true at Tropical paradise Casa Malinche El Rema” We had an unforgettable time at Casa Malinche, El Remanso Bay. This was a truly get-away experience, with no cell phone and internet, only the wild chocoyos (parakeets)and parrots waking us up in the morning and opening the bedrooms balcony doors to breath taking views of El Remanso (El Sucio) Bay below. We spotted whales surfacing one early morning from our balcony. Beginner surfers, mostly foreigners (European and North american), came to El Remaso since early morning to take advantage of the forgiving waves. We traveled with my two children and another family. We were able to rent surf boards at the beach for $10 per day! and instructors to both my kids - my children were able to stand up on their boards and ride the waves almost like pros. Pleasant crystalline, light turquoise waters above 80 degrees F. and mild waves coming ashore (so the name Remanso). San Juan del Sur is just 20 minutes away by car (no need for 4WD) to re-stock or to check on e-mails. We took a boat ride to neighboring Playa Blanca, a private beach only accessible by boat. The views of the Pacific shoreline are unbelievable! Saving the best for last, Casa Malinche is a rustic wood log-framed house with wood siding, founded on pylons. Very comfortable and spacious, open architectural layout. All bedroom windows are screened, so sleeping with windows open listening to the night sounds of waves crashing below and the night fauna is a truly wild experience. Up on the hill the breeze is very refreshing, so we did not have issues with insects. The house comes with all linens and towels, kitchen appliances etc. etc. You only need to bring yourself and your family. Also, be prepared for a good workout to climb stairs to the sleeping quarters and to get to the beach, although the beach is accessible by vehicle if desired. Live-in house keepers are friendly and helpful if you need directions. They are not intrusive with guests. Highly recommended for true adventurer and nature minded!

Casa Cielo Azul - The House of Blue Heaven

San Juan del Sur villa

  • 4 bedrooms
  • 4 bathrooms
  • sleeps 8

“Wonderful experience!” We loved our stay at the Forest and Surf Villa. The house is an architectural gem - very open, beautiful wood, gorgeous views of the ocean. We spent most of our time on the porch swing. We traveled with an infant (5.5 months), toddler (2.5 years) and four adults (including two seniors) and it all went so well. A gorgeous, quiet beach is a short drive from the villa. We heard lots of monkeys, but they were never a nuisance. The beds are comfy, there is a washer and dryer and the place comes with two surf boards and yoga mats. It also stays fairly cool there - compared to the beach. We were never bothered by mosquitoes. Things to know: the drive down to Sjds is long-ish and bumpy, so get supplies in advance. It is very helpful to bring a flash light or headlamp for when you get back after dark, although the paths to the villa are well lit. We didn't have hot water or wireless for the first two days, but it was then fixed (probably would have been fixed sooner, but it was Christmas). The lighting in the kitchen is unpleasant and the kitchen needs more glasses and bowls and a big cutting board. These are all small things, though - we loved our time there.

About San Juan del Sur

This beach town in the southwest of Nicaragua is the epitome of paradise. With brown sugar beaches, surfing enclaves to explore and plenty of color everywhere, San Juan del Sur is the perfect getaway. Let FlipKey help you find the ideal rental property to stay, so you can get exploring!

About San Juan del Sur

San Juan del Sur has deep historical roots dating back to the 16th century, starting with the Spanish conquistadors.

The town was once a fishing village until 1851, with the boom of the California Gold Rush. This transformed the town into a transit route for gold prospectors.

Between the 1940s and 1990s, the town became the largest shipping port. It wasn't until the late 1990s that the town turned to tourism, making way for the San Juan del Sur we know and love today.

Set on a horseshoe bay, San Juan del Sur is enclosed by prehistoric volcanic hills and boasts spectacular views if you're happy to go for a hike!

Be sure to try some Nicaraguan cuisine—tostones (plantain slices), gallo pinto (rice and beans), or fritanga (grill). Check out Asados Juanita to sample some delicious Nicaraguan food!

What to do in San Juan del Sur

San Juan del Sur was made for relaxing. Don't be fooled, however, as this town also has a party scene!

During the day, there is plenty to do in San Juan del Sur. There are dozens of remote beaches in the north and south to help you escape and get some downtime.

If you're looking for an adventure, you'll be able to take a zip-line canopy tour and hang out in the treetops with spider monkeys and other tropical creatures!

Go from July to February and you'll be able to take a night time turtle tour to see Olive Ridley Sea Turtles.

The Cristo de la Misericordia—the Christ of the Mercy—towers over the town. The hike to the statue is quite tough, but it’s all worth it in the end, as it’s one of the best places to witness the glorious sunset.

Top travel tips for San Juan del Sur

The adventurous traveler will surely spot the 'chicken bus'. This perhaps the most colorful way to get around San Juan del Sur, but it’s also one of the slowest… and the most cramped.

When in Nicaragua, it's always good to try the local specialties, including Flor de Caña (if you like rum) and Toña (if you prefer beer!).

If you're traveling from Costa Rica, you can easily take a taxi from the border into San Juan del Sur, which will take roughly 20 minutes. If you're flying into Managua, you'll be able to book a shuttle or express bus from Mercado Huembes into town.

With its dollar beers and live music, San Juan del Sur will transport you to a place of ultimate relaxation. When the sun comes up, there are stunning beaches and glorious rainforest to explore. And when the sun sets, it’s time to dance! Be sure to snap up a FlipKey rental property, so that you'll be moments away from the party.

Casa Cielo Azul - The House of Blue Heaven
Beautiful, quiet and peaceful Villa

The photos cannot capture what a lovely home this is. Beautifully designed, amazing view and tremendously peaceful. With no windows the air is perfect and breezes relaxing. My girlfriend and I spent a week here and it was perfect for us, and would be ideal for a larger group as well. Well worth the bumpy dirt road ride from town. We cooked breakfast and dinner here daily (including fish we caught) as both of us have worked in restaurants for years (me on the wine side) and I have a food blog. Plenty of utensils, pots, pans etc. We do recommend making a trip to the street markets in Rivas for your produce...better quality and better variety (and less expensive). We surfed (and stood among huge Manta rays) at Playa Maderas, lazed on the beach at Playa Majaguel, helped baby turtles to the sea at La Flor, went night fishing catching 40 red snapper. Wonderful time. Thank yousee more
Malinche Remanso House, San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua
Gorgeous villa, beautiful beach, great time!

We just spent a wonderful week at Casa Malinche, so I wanted to rave about it a little bit. We really couldn't believe our luck to be staying somewhere so beautiful! We arrived at night, which meant very slow driving but was totally doable, and Luiz (the caretaker) had turned the lights on so we could spot the property. He gave us a quick helpful tour, and then left us to our devices - ie wandering around the 3 levels and lying in every hammock. The view of the ocean in the morning blew our minds, and we took many morning beach walks. You can climb around the rocky point to see thousands of crabs and schools of fish, and there are always a dozen or so pelicans diving for food in the bay. Remanzo was quiet even in the high season, and the swimming is amazing! Not too cold, a nice wave but no undertow or riptide. There are sting rays, but you just shuffle your feet to scare them off and we never had a problem. San Juan del Sur is 15 - 20 minutes away, and we had fun shopping at the local mercado, the fish market at the end of the harbour, and eating at a couple of the beach-side touristy restaurants. We ate mostly at Malinche though because we loved it there and the cooking facilities are great (charcoal grill). We had a sunset swim every evening, a few beers on the beach, and then maybe a bonfire and romp with some of the local dogs. I highly recommend this place for travellers who like their independence and want an easy place to feel at home.see more
Comfy Condo - 3 blocks from beach - easy walk to town
Awesome

We spent 10 wonderful days in Sjds and look forward aro a return trip, staying much longer. This Condo was perfect in every way, 5 minute walk to te beach, 15 minute walk to town. Walking through the neighbouring village was definitely the highlight of our trip. The people are friendly and we felt very safe . This area is conducive to relaxation, no Costcos, no Walmarts, no great huge 5 star resorts. This condo offers all the comforts of home, thank goodness for aC. It is furnished with all the amenities you will need, including the best housekeeper around. Catalina treated us like royalty, cooking dinner for us one evening and inviting us over to a family dinner another evening and just being there to help us out. She is a true ambassador of this sleepy little village. We worked directly through Sylvia, the owner of the condo, and she's a terrific landlord, very helpful and considerate. Can't wait to stay again.see more
