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.

    Morgan’s Rock sits in a fantastic spot, right on a perfect beach you’ll likely have all for yourself (or almost) with sunsets guaranteed. We found the staff superb! Our bungalow was a piece of tranquil eco luxury in which we felt super comfortable. Food is great, clearly with Nicaraguan character, and at its best. You’ll see monkeys all around. We actually had a sloth sitting in the tree besides our bungalow. A stay is pricey but comes highly recommended if you are looking for tranquility in a high end eco setting.

    This is a wonderful getaway directly on the beautiful beach of Playa El Coco. Heidi and her staff were fantastic, making sure we were happy and fed. The food prepared was delicious and there was great variety. We loved ending our trip at this property as we were able to kick back and relax. We even got to see turtles being released at the sanctuary beside the property! Sunsets on the beach in the warm ocean water were unforgettable. Thanks again! ❤️

    Great location right downtown, walkable to everything. Room was decent, with strong AC and the hot water was a surprise! The staff were friendly and the wi-fi worked well. Highly secure with a padlock on the front door most all the time, and someone sitting down there at night. Very convenient to be across from Casa Oro hostal, as it was easy to take their shuttles to the beach for a low price. The hotel was good value for the money overall.

    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.

    The hostel is value for money. The dorms are spacious, clean, beds comfortable. They have a fan for each bed, so it is great for when it gets hot. Breakfast is included which is amazing for the price. Location is super close to everywhere you would want to go to in San Juan Del Sur. There are many common areas to relax with comfortable hammocks and chairs. Recommend !

    I loved the remote location from the San Juan del Sur Bay crowd. I also loved the super friendly and super nice staff. I loved it's a beautiful place right on the water. It's located only 3 minutes from a beach where you can see lot of turtles laying eggs. The 15 minutes dirt road to get there is well maintained. I loved you can see the sunset in front of you.

    This location was great if you want to escape the craziness of San Juan Del Sur. There's a nice beach right beside the property which is great if you're learning to surf. The beach is quiet and chilled. Faith and James were lovely hosts. Really nice people and lovely to talk to. It was really quiet too which is what we were looking for.
