Hotele niedaleko Museo del Chocolate, San Juan del Sur

You probably should stay here if you are tourists, as opposed to surfers. There are very few places to stay in SJS for you. This has 12 rooms. New, but there are problems to correct: the light and fan are wired together, so you can't sleep with the fan on if you want the light off. The AC works well but we don't usually like to sleep with that. No elevator, but you get a stunning view from the 3rd floor. But plan on lifting your luggage up the spiral staircase. Great breakfast at the Iguana on the beach included. You will need instruction and experience to get hot water, but its not necessary and not worth the trouble. Hot water doesn't circulate in NICA hotels. Only a block from the beach, we got here from CR via caribeshuttle. They were superb, just late an hour on the first ride. NICA time. SJS is not ready for prime time tourists.

Staying at Selina's hostel in Maderas for a week was an experience I will cherish for a long time. From the moment I arrived, the warmth and friendliness of the staff were palpable, creating an inviting atmosphere that felt like a home away from home. One aspect that stood out was the exceptional service provided by the bartenders, David and Samir. Their welcoming nature and eagerness to go above and beyond made me feel like family. Their eagerness to make everyone feel welcome from the moment they walked into the hostel was truly unique. The hostel itself boasts a charming location, offering a blend of tranquility and adventure. The communal areas were always clean and well-maintained, fostering a sense of community among the guests. Whether it was lounging by the pool or participating in one of the many activities organized by the hostel, there was never a dull moment. The accommodations were comfortable and thoughtfully designed, ensuring a restful night's sleep after a day of exploring the beautiful surroundings. The hostel's commitment to sustainability was also evident in various aspects of its operation, aligning with the values of many travelers today. It was amazing to see the management team drive down to the beach for a sunset beach cleanup. Overall, my stay at Selina's hostel in Maderas was a delightful experience. The friendly staff, especially the remarkable service and close proximity to the beach made it a place I would eagerly return to and recommend to others seeking a memorable stay at playa maderas. The WiFi, staff, and accommodations truly can’t be beat in Playa Maderas and I look forward to coming back in the near future. Thank you for an amazing trip Selinas!
