This is my second stay at this guesthouse, which a nice upgrade from backpacking for comfort and relaxation (e.g. the canopy lounge). I’m an intermediate surfer, who’s been surfing in a few different countries (my girlfriend is a beginner surfer who loves it)….. and the best beach for surfing we’ve been to, is only a short walk away from this...

Clean, fun, walking distance to beaches even with a 4 year old, knowledgable and very accommodating staff, amazing eats and wonderful wildlife!!!! Would definitely stay here again.

Hosts Lisa and Jake go out of their way to make families feel at home. Wonderful dinners and breakfasts for those interested in dining at the B&B. Our separate cabin was perfect for families with little kids. Easy walks to two beaches, including Playa Marsella with gentle waves that are ideal for younger swimmers. So glad we stayed outside of... More

They gave awesome recommendations of where... More

The beaches in San Juan Del Sur are beautiful. Jake and Lisa were wonderful hosts showing us around, recommending good places to eat, things... More
