San Juan del Sur Hotel Guide - Maderas Beach hotels in San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua.

"Manuel and Maria are waiting to greet you on arrival, and the property exceeds the listing photos — especially at night when the lighting makes it truly magical. 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 dinner on the deck that was incredible.Kids aged 8–16 loved having both beach and pool access, and you can see both from anywhere on the property which made supervising easy.A few helpful notes for future guests: We flew into Liberia, Costa Rica and crossed into Nicaragua without any issues, but the border building on the Nicaraguan side has no AC and lines can be long — we'd fly directly to Managua next time. Worth noting that we went about 80 USD over on the electricity allowance despite only using AC and lights at night, so just be mindful. Around the point just south of the villa is a great spot to rent boards and book surf lessons or other adventures. And don't sleep on Juanita's — incredible food at unbeatable prices, we ate there nearly every day.A huge thanks to Felipe for sharing this special place — ¡muchas gracias!"

"Todo muy excelente, lo único que les recomiendo que deberían de cambiar los colchones de las camas y que tengan cobijas en las camas , sólo tienen sábanas y no tienen cobijas. Pero aparte de eso excelente. "

"The ocean veiw suite is the way to go. So happy for the upgrade. You are pool side near the restaurant and you have that spectacular oceanview. I woke up to a beautiful male peacock outside my window one day. I highly recommend."

"It's a really beautiful property with amazing rooms. There's a new infinity pool area that faces the Pacific Ocean and the skyline (including the statue) of San Juan del Sur. The breakfast spread in the morning is amazing! I also liked the dinner options (pizza night on Wednesday and fresh mahi mahi from the coast)."

"Ideal place! 2 minutes walk to the beach and all the restaurants. Great view and even greater hosts. Carolina is super helpful and is always there to make sure you dont lack anything. "
