Family-friendly vacation rentals in Playa Gigante

Wonderful place, with a spectacular view! The statue of Christ is super close to Malibu and the host was also super helpful in recommending local restaurants with a 20% discount :) They’re super attentive when it comes to any inquiries or maintenance questions. However, I will say that there were a lot of bugs outside so I recommend bringing repellent. Its location is not that inclined like most places in San Juan, so that was another upside to it. Great location, great staff, great place ❤️

We had a great stay at Laura’s house. Very relaxing to just look out over the jungle down to the ocean with birds and monkeys coming and going. The view is really fantastic. Open air concept made you feel like you were always right there in nature. Exciting trip up the road 4x4 is a must. Private road down to the beach made that very accessible. Thanks again to Laura and Veronica for making our visit so enjoyable.

Amelia's bnb was an excellent place to call home for a month while in San Juan! The property was quiet but close enough to town to access everything very easily. I'd recommend renting a motorbike while staying since the road up is an adventure. The property manager, Walter, and his family were so kind and helpful to us. The best part of staying here were all the neighborhood dogs that make the stay extra memorable :) 10/10 would come back!

Safe area and very centric. Tanguy was an amazing host and is very responsive, he makes sure you have a great stay at his home.

Lovely home in a quiet community. The road in is a bit rough but that’s Nicaragua as a whole.

The house is super comfortable, with a pool overlooking the ocean that allows you to see incredible sunsets. The service and housekeeping was excellent . I would definitely come back and recommend the stay.

Big Drop Surf House is ideally located a short walk to Playa Maderas. Well equipped and comfortable, staying here you will feel part of the Maderas community. Gaby is a very responsive and resourceful host. The local restaurants/beach bars are great, close, and have delicious food.

Excellent accommodation, it is in great condition. The kitchen is fully stocked with stocked utensils, clean rooms and bathrooms! It's just as described. The super relaxing pool and the sea is a couple of steps away. Unbeatable location. Jim is very friendly! Definitely a place I'd love to come back to soon.

Corrin and Jacq were exceptional hosts. Always present and super diligent. The house, in turn, is perfect: excellent location, equipped with everything you need (and more) and extremely comfortable and pleasant. It was an incredible experience, which I recommend to everyone (especially to those who surf, given the two “world class” waves located within the condominium).

We had a great stay at Casa Buen Vivir. The house is beautiful and in an amazing setting. We enjoyed sitting on the covered porch each morning drinking coffee and having breakfast together as a family. It rained quite a bit during our stay. It rained everyday but it didn’t rain all day. We still enjoyed the beach almost every day. It is about 5-10 minute walk to the beach and we saw very few other people on the beach which made it feel like our own private beach. We did travel in November which is shoulder season. We had read that the southern coast dries up this time of year even if there is still rain elsewhere in the country but this was not the case for us. We really enjoyed our stay regardless and can’t thank Till and Nelson enough for their support and guidance while we were there. We hope to return someday.

We stayed at CasAnika for three weeks and had an amazing time! The house is spacious, clean, and cozy, with a beautiful terrace and a well-equipped kitchen. The Wi-Fi was great for remote work, and we loved the pool area and the friendly dogs and cats. Tony was a fantastic host, always helpful and full of great tips. The location is quiet, private and ideal, within walking distance to Maderas and Marsella beaches. We rented a scooter for trips to town but rarely needed to go as the area was so peaceful. Highly recommend!

Very quiet and safe place. Quick access to the beach. Welcoming staff. Excellent communication with the host. I will return to it with pleasure!

Most affordable way to surf the awesome waves of Playa Colorados. Located next to a great pizza place and the bikes made getting around Iguana a breeze. Would definitely stay again!

5 STARS all the way around for Miki’s house. She was amazing to work with, her house was so cool and super close to the beach. We loved the vibe, the plants, the pool, everything was spot on!

100% recommended, the house is very spacious, clean and tidy, the kitchen is sufficiently equipped, Don pedro and his lady are very friendly, a very quiet place, we had a great time, I would go again.

This is a beautiful house and the view is exactly as pictured! We spent three weeks here and had an amazing time spending each day in the pool and evenings watching sunset. Dan has great recommendations, communication, and a guest discount to his catamaran tour which is tons of fun. We were three people working remotely and occasionally faced problems with power outages, often multiple times per week and day. If you are working remotely I would recommend flexibility and/or also having a local sim/ external data connection to avoid issues. However, I will mention that these issues are not unique to Dan's place and can be expected at any location in San Juan del Sur. The house attendants are readily available for anything you might need, however we sometimes faced miscommunication issues in regards to cleanings and laundry. I would highly recommend Dan's place for a relaxing vacation and remote work, you cannot beat the pool and view!

Perfect stay as always in Maria Elena’s property.

Spacious and clean..close to everything.

This place was incredible! The views were out of this world, the house was spotless and cozy, and everything was set up perfectly. Zachary and Suyen were great hosts, and Ricardo was super helpful and easy to work with. If you’re looking for a relaxing spot with beautiful scenery, this is the one. Highly recommend!

Excellent space for a rich vacation! It has everything you need! We will definitely be back!

I loved the place, it’s a beautiful house with a huge pool to spend the entire day in it, it’s very private and quiet if you want to disconnect from the city! Well recommended for big families!! Just be aware of rainy season because you’ll need an All-Terrain Vehicle with 4WD.

Everything clean and all kind
