Vacation rentals with a patio in Playa Gigante

We had a great stay at Jose’s apartment and are happy we came back! The place is comfortable, private, and has a great hot shower. It’s close to the main town but still tucked away from the crowds and noise, offering a peaceful stay. The location is very walkable, just a few blocks from the market, restaurants, and cafes. Would definitely recommend!

A beautiful, spacious, well equipped apartment with a spectacular view. Sitting on the balcony sipping the complimentary coffee watching the monkeys, birds and sunsets was very special. Brian could not have been more helpful, from clear border crossing instructions, help with transport, help with shopping , to scooping up my husband when he got lost, nothing was too much trouble. I would definitely recommend a stay here and we hope to be back.

I have stayed here several times. Always a pleasant stay.

Lucas’ place is very nice and laid back. The room was great and matched the photos and descriptions. It was nice to take a dip in the pool. It is only a minute or two walk to the beach. Lucas is a great host. He was actually heading into town already when we were arriving, so he offered to pick us up in Rivas. This was great because we were able to get some groceries and things in town first. He was very attentive and there was someone around to help if we ever needed anything. He also gave us a lift back to Rivas for a fair price. Lucas speaks pretty decent English, but he was also happy to chat with me in Spanish to give me some practice! All in all, we had a great stay and would highly recommend Casa Vitini!

Really great stay and hosts would highly recommend! Great internet and place

Staying at Villa Fiorella with Armando and his lovely family was a great experience! The price is very affordable and priced very fairly for a brand new apartment with excellent amenities. Armando and his family was incredibly kind and welcoming. One day when we first arrived, Armando told us his goal and desire is to treat his guests like family. At first, I was skeptical, because I too own apartments and prefer a hands-off approach, but I was proven wrong. He absolutely treats his guests like family. Unfortunately, I experienced problems with a car rental agency in town, and after losing money Armando offered for my family to use his car, because he wanted to help us and felt bad for us. This was an incredible act of kindness. We were blown away by how sweet this gesture was. Our daughter also LOVED Armando's daughter, Fiorella. She was so sweet and played with our daughter. Armando's children are so sweet and welcoming! You are nestled in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood with a view of the mountains and fields. We loved how quiet and peaceful this place was, and watching the sunsets. Armando was very quick to attend to our requests, such as fix a small tear in the window screen, assist with organizing housekeeping, servicing the A/C unit, improving wifi, and anything else we requested. The quality of the apartment is very high, with very nice finishes and materials! We truly felt treated like family. There is also a beautiful garden in the back and the neighbors are family, so we felt very safe at this place. This place is about a 5-10 minute drive from town. Taxis are very affordable and will pick you up from this place ($4.29 dollars to town, $1.5 if you catch a taxi from the main road), take you to beaches and wait for you there, and bring you back home ($30 dollars round trip to maderas or hermosa). (Call Lester +505 7787 2868) The internet was a bit slow, but Armando is working every day to improve it. I work in telecommunications, using wifi calling all day, but for anyone streaming or using wifi for casual purposes you won't have problems. Overall a super great experience! Thank you Armando for showing us so much love and care. We would come back any day to revisit.

This place is heaven! The house is beautiful and the patio is incredible. On the beach with a patio offering bbq, hamac, direct access to pool and access to the beach. They even had a kids table and toys. Master bedroom is just Wow, with view to the ocean. Kids loved the bunk beds. Hot water and a/c. Close town, we would definitely come back!

Maria Andrea is very friendly. Always at the order for any questions, besides that you were very flexible with us regarding check-in and check-out. We were 4 people. The apartment is located in a building, apartment complex overlooking the ocean and Christ of San Juan del Sur. There was a 20kwh restriction per day, which I thought was a good energy-saving initiative by thinking about the ecological theme. We did not use the air conditioners by their own decision which kept us well below the limit and we did not have to pay anything at the end. I would gladly return to Maria Andrea's apartment!

The home and location were perfect. Agata was able to help with all of our questions and requests. She was super friendly and helpful. We felt so welcomed and right at home. Can’t wait to go back!

Villa Urraca absolutely surpassed our family's expectations. Spending time there was one of the highlights of our vacation in Nicaragua. We especially appreciated the beachfront view, and the short walk to the beach, as well as the proximity to the restaurant and activities like the turtle release and horseback riding. Jon and his team were excellent hosts—very responsive and attentive. We’re already looking forward to our next visit to Villa Urraca!

This is such a beautiful stay. The house is as close to the beach as you can get. The beach is very quiet, we were often the only people on the sand besides a few locals fishing. Great swimming. The house is nice and clean. My party of five used the outdoor grill, pool and outdoor dining area every day. Cynthia and Aroldo are great as well. One thing I will say is that the road to the house is quite precarious, making it a little harder to get around the San Juan del Sur area. Not sure if a sedan could make it through. We ended up working with David to get transportation to the city (20 min away) for $50 one day, which was nice of them. It’s also possible to take a taxi to the restaurant at the end of the beach and walk a few minutes on the sand to the house for cheaper. The road there is much better. Overall I’d highly recommend David’s stay and would love to visit again.

Wonderful house! It’s well equipped and both the host and caretaker were so kind and caring about us. I truly recommend this place, my family and I will definitely stay here in the future

Excellent place to enjoy Southern San Juan, super comfortable and accessible.

The house is the same as the photos, everything clean, comfortable, I would return without hesitation.

Paz was very communicative. Helped us to get a ride from the airport. Very close to playa santana. 15 min or so walk to beginner bay.

Jason's place was perfect! A friend and I were looking for a peaceful and quiet weekend and this couldn't have been better. Jasons place was close enough to all the amenities but far enough away to enjoy the tranquility. His house was well stocked with whatever one would need and he was always communicative and responsive. Danny greeted us to let us in and he was friendly and available if needed. I would absolutely stay again and recommend to friends. Thanks for a perfect little get away!!

Hacienda Iguana was a quiet place, well cared for , very protected and private ..with certain amenities and services that allowed to stock up on essentials . Although we recommend buying everything in Rivas before you arrive , since inside the hacienda everything is very expensive . The beach is very quiet , good for walking , enjoying the sea and its gentle waves and surfing for all levels . We recommend walking beyond the rocks on both ends of Playa Iguana . Roberta's apartment is nice , practical , very cared for and with a privileged location overlooking the sea . Responsive and friendly Roberta always responded to all our questions and concerns. Having toured Nicaragua was a good destination to end our trip .

The apartment is amazing. It feels like home, the view is nice. Everything works and the fact that you are able to flush toiletpaper is a huge bonus. Everything in the apartment feels like luxury. Please keep in mind that it’s like a 15-20 min walk to where the restaurants and bars are. Would definitely recommend the place.

Everything about this stay was perfect. Tom is an amazing host. If we could, we would have given this stay a 6/5 rating. Above and beyond all around. Definitely check this place out! We will be coming back as soon and often as we can.

Everything was great! Jennifer was very attentive to my messages ! The kitchen needs a little more equipment.

Uri was a huge help, great manager. Always got us what we needed then and there. Juan Pablo was great as well, always answered any questions immediately and made our stay super easy. Nice kitchen and everything you need for a long term stay. Walking distance to the beach, both grocery stores and Dog Town. Already planning our next trip back!

Billie and Lee were excellent and accommodating hosts. The property is beautiful and immersed in nature. There is a clean and quiet beach that is walkable in 2 minutes as well as many more a short drive away. This stay was the highlight of our trip through Central America and we would definitely return.

Great spot, close to the beach, nice balcony, spacious. Jeremy was very nice and helpful!
