Located a short walk from the famous surf spot Maderas Beach, Selina Maderas offers accommodation a 30-minute drive from the lively town of San Juan del Sur.

The location near to the beach, the swimming pool, the activities, the view from the yoga’s place. The staff was very friendly ! The bed sheets and to have curtains !! Not all guesthouses or hotel have curtains for the bunk bed. It’s a plus for the privacy.

    There's something magical about this little beach community.

    There's something magical about this little beach community. The vibe and energy are great- restaurants and bars with excellent food & drink everywhere. Locals and tourists are friendly and helpful. We know a tiny bit of Espanol but were able to communicate with no issues, and English is spoken more prevalently than I had expected. Can't wait to visit again!!

    It is a busy town, with lots of surfers and retired folks living or visiting. Lots of motorbikes for getting around. Some excellent restaurants along the beach front including Henry's Iguana Bar, and Maggies' Restaurant up the street. Good fish tacos at little kiosk. Great beach walks, lovely sunsets and a few hikes to do. One to the Jesus protecting the bay and the other to the lighthouse on the opposite side of bay. Wear good shoes for those.

    Great little beach town with numerous bars and restaurants with amazing sunset views. Very walkable even in flip flops. Not a bad meal to be found! Lots of fun places to watch American football if you like that.

    everything is walking distance, you can get to the know the town easily just walking around. I liked Vivian restaurant, nice place, clean, friendly staff. the beach was full of trash... plastic trash, cups, bottles, cookie wraps, cans... trash all over the sand and in the ocean and for some reason nobody seems to care. it was very impressive and quite sad. Looking Good Surf House was a great place to stay!

    The town wasn't as bad as I was expecting!

    The town wasn't as bad as I was expecting! pretty calm in the day and evening, not sure about after that! we were there 2 days and for us that was just right. We went to Remanso beach one day and Maderas beach the other. Rented boards at each and tried to surf! Maderas waves were better, at least when we were there in April. We were at the beaches for about 5 hours each day. I didn't love the fact that Remanso had no shade and neither seemed to have much for facilities, except the few bars/restaurants that you kinda had to eat/drink at in order to have some shade or a shower or somewhere to hang out. Not really my favourite scene. SJDS itself was small town seeming in the center and easy to get around walking and lots of food options and the beach in town was great to explore with the kids, swim or watch sunset. It's easy to get in and our of either on bus from Rivas or taxi- 20$ from the Ometepe Ferry for 4 of us. 25$ to the border organized through Casa Oro.

    In the town there are a lot of open sewers and the smell is bad in many places. There is a lot of trash here and there. There is a lot of trash around the beach. The food is ok, the prices are alright. The better prices are away from the beachfront. Tamarindo is a much nicer and cleaner beach. The Nica's need to clean up the trash and the open sewers.

The place itself is very clean, there is AC in the rooms, wi-fi, TV with cables, a tank filled with mineral water and the rooms are very big. the kitchen is great, so clean and it has all the utilities a person might need, the staff is awesome, very helpful, attentive and patient and does everything with a smile There is a patio where guests can sit and relax.

    Excellent choice for digital nomads and/or those looking for a clean quiet hostel in the center of San Juan del Sur. Spent a week here working remotely and the Internet was fast, stable and battery back up kept it functioning when the electricity in the town went out once for twenty minutes. Friendly and helpful staff. Free coffee and very affordable room price for an otherwise bit pricey town. Everything was clean and functioned well and was very appreciative of the coworking room having AC.

    Breakfast was great, really enjoyed the traditional Nicaraguan breakfast. Their pancakes were fluffy and yummy. Staff was very accommodating and helpful. The property is nicely tucked around a corner of a street where it’s not too loud or not too quiet despite being very close to all the restaurants. Loved their porch for eating breakfast in the morning and the pool is a nice hang out spot. Very easy to get around and even catch the bus to Rivas. ATM is nearby and main attractions too.

    Hostel Tropical and CoWorking definitely exceeded my expectations! It's located in the central area of San Juan del Sur so you have plenty of restaurants, surfing lessons around the corner, and even a nearby shuttle to go to the beaches. I'm also working remotely and the WiFi worked perfectly in the coworking space! The owners are asking for feedback and continuously improving the place. Highly recommend for short and long term stays!

    The directions were useless. Two local San Juan taxis could not find the place. We ended up after several hours driving around and asking locals how to get there taking an expensive hotel. Yuor team needs to verify that directions are accurate and prrcise. Do not charge my account for a no show. The owner did not answer any calls or reply despite trying to confirm three days in advance. Useless and very frustrating instructions.

    I loved the location, the ambiamce of the place . The room was comfy. enough towels were available, and the bed was good enough to get 8 hr sleep. Wifi was strong in my room, I was upstairs with view of San Juan del Sur beach. The breakfast was very tasty fruit, eggs, toast, coffee and gallo pinto as well. Also the owner was very charming cool dude I would definitely return, the beach access was amazing. Right on the playa!

    This is a great place to hang out with the family for a few days. Our room was huge with everything you need including a big comfy king size bed. The pool area is excellent and the place is very well maintained and beautifully planted. The food is amongst the best we tasted in Nicaragua and the waiting staff in the restaurant were also incredibly friendly and attentive.

    This place is a jewel. It's not a classical hotel with the normal staff. It was clearly built originally as a private home, and that's what it feels like. The views are fantastic, it's quiet and peaceful but only 5 minutes from the beach and the restaurants and shops. Best place I've stayed at in a long time.
