Find Cheap Hostels in El Gigante

"This was a convenient spot for me as I only had a couple of days in San Juan and the staff is very helpful in all areas. It's a hostel so don't expect it to be quiet and take your own shower needs including a towel. Great stay and thank you"

"I had the misfortune to arrive by bus from Managua on a rainy day. I thus had difficulty in finding the Hostal. When I did, at aout 7 pm, the person at the reception did not even ask to identify me, and I was led to a room with a window giving on the corridor, a small old sink giving only a tiny fillet or water, etc. Only cold water, but that seems to be general in San Juan. I eventually got used to all these "perks"..."

"Disappointed the room at the top of the hill (unique room) didn’t have running water to shower in the evening or morning. Very short periods only."

"The Apartment was beautiful "

"Dreamsea Nica is a paradise. Located between San Juan del Sur and Maderas surf Beach. When you enter through the gates you are immediately transported into a lush tropical paradise where the only sound is nature. The staff was friendly, attentive where anything you asked for was not a problem. The rooms were incredible. Tastefully decorated with a big comfortable bed, and veranda. The pool was refreshing with a Tiki bar to make everything right Yoga and surf was offered each day....

"Very dirty, dusty, damp and smelly. Not very clean and gets very noisy at night: had to change rooms once then toilet blocked in new room and the whole thing was a nightmare"

"We didn’t end up staying at this hotel because she tried to double the price when we were paying. Hotels.com said 31.50 pay at hotel. When we arrived she said it was 52 and cash only. It also wasn’t close to the beach and she didn’t know how to use the computer or phone. We walked out and found a cute quiet hostel down the street with air conditioning and private bath for 25 "

"Very helpful and happy staff, great location, would definitely stay again"

"This hotel in a wonderful place to stay, it like paradise "

"This hostel doesnt even exist. We got there at midnight and we couldnt even find it, we had to find some other place to stay at midnight. There wasnt any signal outside. No lights. No nothing. Local people had never heard before of it. This was a terrible experience"

"The house was perfect for our group of 4 adults and 4 teenagers with beds to spare. Great view from the deck, and a very quiet neighborhood. El Gigante was a short drive and is the kind of non touristy village we were looking for. Loved it."

"We loved our stay so much here! Everything was clean and safe (and there’s even A/C!). Luis was helpful with everything we needed. The location is great- just a short walk to Playa Gigante and Playa Amarillo. We walked everyday to surf, eat, and swim. El Gigante is seriously a hidden gem in Nicaragua and so is this place. Definitely our favorite place we’ve stayed in Nicaragua!"

"DO NOT BOOK! It was a scam!!! owner never replied messages or call, did not provide entrance details or anything... i could not go to my new years booking. so disappointed"
