Cute, clean hotel
Cute hotel. Very quaint, clean, good breakfast. Good value for the price. We stayed at the casita. Bed was a bit hard and they don’t have colchas just thin bed covers but overall it was ok. What I love the most was that it is very Nicaraguan.

I want to move in permanently. Can you just rent me the little bungalow in the back. Well run. And so clean. If anything though i would have loved a hammock and a fully reclining lounge chair. I will be back. Soon!!

A true tropical gem!
Small, clean, friendly hotel in excellent beachtown location! Fabulous cooked breakfast consisting of NICA local fare. All employees strive to make stay pleasant. Our 2nd visit to this city-I would certainly stay here again. The pool was extremely clean. All aspects of the facility are well maintained. I would recommend!

I could live at La Posada Azul.
This was my 4th or 5th trip to San Juan del Sur and the first time staying at La Posada Azul. This place appears to be an old colonial style hotel, dark wood floors, verandas and rattan furniture and tropical landscaping. The setting is beautiful, the pictures can hardly do the place justice. Breakfast was amazing, my favorite was the breakfast burrito and the kitchen were all very accommodating. The front desk staff were all very pleasant and also accommodating whether I needed a hair dryer, a bucket of ice or directions to local attractions. The room was spacious and quaintly appointed with rattan furniture including a large wardrobe. There is no television in the rooms, which I found to be a positive. And the shower was hot! (a luxury in Nicaragua). They have 3 or 4 seating areas where one can read or just sip a coke or Tona from the "bar". You could help yourself and just had to note on the sheet at the bar what you had taken. And they have a small boutique with items from local artists and businesses such as pottery, woven baskets, beautiful scarves and coffee. I will definitely be staying here again.

Slice of Paradise in San Juan del Sur
The Posada Azul was wonderful. Perfect location, incredibly clean, wonderful breakfast, and lovely staff. The property was pristine and a slice of paradise. The only way it could have been improved is the addition of some hammocks in the garden ;) Thank you for a perfect stay!!

Charming but Hard as a Rock
The Posada Azul is a charming old home converted into a small hotel. It is quite charming and well located. Most of the staff were nice and attentive although a couple could use a little more customer service training. Although small, the rooms were nice and clean. Our major complaint is the bed. It was as hard as a rock. Neither my wife were able to get much sleep. We are international consultants and accustomed to sleeping in all kinds of hotels. However, I don't think we have slept on a mattress as hard as the one at the Posada Azul.

Everything was perfect!
Everything about our stay was perfect! We arrived early in the morning before check in time and they allowed us to store our luggage. Once the room was ready we checked in very easily. The hotel staff is very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. This is a small hotel with only 7 rooms. It includes a full, served breakfast every morning and it was so good! Ours was fruit, muffins, coffee, tea, juice, and a different entree each day. The grounds are very nice and tranquil with pretty flowers and a nice pool. The pool has towels so no need to pack one or use the one from your room. The honor bar was very handy when we didn't want to go out to the stores in town. There is a little store attached with cute gifts to bring home. The location is perfect! Just off the beach on the quieter end of town so you can relax if you want or just take a quick walk and be right in the thick of the party. There is a watchman at night, so we always felt perfectly safe. I would and will stay here again. They are wonderful!

Great Little Hotel
My wife and I loved this hotel. Staff was amazing, location was perfect, and the colonial style courtyard was a great place to relax. We have stayed in many boutique hotels in Central America and this one just might be our favourite. The breakfast was also much more than we were expecting. If you don't like this little gem there might be something wrong with you.

Great hotel close to everything!
Stayed at about 5 hotels in Nicaragua and this was my favorite! Ideal location close to everything you need in San Juan del Sur without the noise and inconvenience of staying on the main streets. This hotel is tucked away in a nice little corner off of a side street away from the main drag, but close enough to walk anywhere you want. This is more of a family oriented hotel with only a couple of rooms. Everything is very clean, well maintained, with friendly staff. Breakfast each morning was unique and delicious!

We really enjoyed our stay in SJDS. this hotel's Spanish Colonial style was impressive and well maintained. The rooms were clean and had hot water. The area was quiet and safe but close to everything. That being said the absolute best part of our visit was the breakfasts. OMG! incredible. I would definitely stay here again, which I hope will be soon.

Beautiful, quiet, close to everything, very secure
The friendly staff will help you with all of your needs, keep you and your car safe and secure, and provide you with an amazing breakfast daily at no additional charge. The cooks are truly inspired and the breakfasts vary day to day, each with a different but wonderful palette of local flavors. The facilities are warm, beautiful and inviting, especially the interior courtyard and pool. A small "pension" style hotel it is a perfect place to explore all of wonders of southwestern Nicaragua from. The warm, friendly, inviting and extremely attentive staff are very patient with broken gringo Spanglish and will get you what you need and help you find what you want.

Great hotel in SJDS
My son and I recently stayed at La Posada Azul for 2 weeks. It was an amazing stay. The rooms were very well appointed and very comfortable. Every morning we were treated to breakfast with coffee fresh juice fresh fruit muffins Gallo pinto and some type of egg dish. The hotel is very clean and the staff are wonderful. I am surprised this hotel doesn't have a higher rating as I can't imagine staying somewhere else in SJDS. This was my third time to SJDS.
