Villas in El Gigante

"Casa Yosi is your own personal resort!! Pool and beach out your back door!! My family had a great week at Casa Yosi!!"

"This villa is the perfect retreat spot with spectacular views of the bay. Our host was super responsive and accommodating. The villa is set up with all the essentials including rockers and table, chaise chairs and a hammock for nap time 😉. The house is comfortable despite the afternoon heat but cross ventilation helps immensely. It’s less than a 10 minute walk into town and although the return walk is a bit in the steep side - totally walkable or you can catch a taxi in town vs walking or...

"I don’t think you could find a single thing wrong if you tired! Amazing everything was 10/10"

"Juan is leading his staff with a very personalized, friendly approach. They immediately make you feel like part of the family. The place is clean and very organized and is beautiful, just walking distance from the beach. It is a little piece of heaven❤️"

"Very Nice place to stay, beautiful people, beautiful view "

"We had an amazing time at Casa Cooper. We were in town visiting friends and family who all truly enjoyed the stunning sunsets and outdoor space for gathering. Can’t wait to return!"

"The Cooper house and the Casita Romantica is everything as edvertised. My wife and 8 year old son truly enjoyed the great views, local shopping and amazing food just 5 minutes away from the house. I like to give a special recognition to Gabriel Zamora, the property manager for being on top of things during our stay. He made sure our pool clean and the the house keepers did a great job daily of our rooms and living areas."

"Perfect Property for a beach front quite stay!"

"James was super accommodating of all my requests. He set everything up for us personally and made sure everything was on time. Andrea, our full service maid/chef was 10/10. Her food was spectacular and she made us feel like kings. Can't wait to go back!"

"Amazing house and the views were even better than the listing photos! Easy drive to town. 4WD is recommended during rainy season as it's a steep dirt road to the house. The property caretakers (next door in the guest house) were quick to respond with any needs. Really enjoyed our stay. 5 stars all around."

"The view is breathtaking, ac is cold, pool is refreshing and staff is fantastic. My whole family enjoyed this vacation. We had yoga instructors come from San Juan most mornings for family yoga in the private palapa as well as masseuses a couple times for sunset 10/10. The beach is really close, surfing is fun for all levels, restaurants are delicious. Town is about 30min out on a dirt road, and they are building a new road as I was there so may be closer soon - will be back!!"

"Heaven on Earth!"

"The house is very well equipped and just a short walk to the beach. Got lots of local tips and support from Mateo and the staff were wonderful. We will be back!"

"Welcoming, pro"

"We had 2 families with 9 people Total in this house and had more than enough room for all of us. The grounds were beautiful and the staff worked nonstop to make sure it remained so. David was truly helpful throughout the whole trip hooking up everything we needed. We’ll be back to both Iguana and this house!"

"Beware! This property is not as advertised. The advertisement that the house is “Beachside” is a stretch. House is on top of a steep hill from the beach with multiple other houses between it and the beach. Some key pictures in the listing are outdated; for example, the listing picture of an ocean view from the first floor no longer applies as it appears to have been taken over 10 years ago before tree growth blocked the view. The home is advertised as inside Rancho Santana; however, what is not...

"This place is great! James was exceedingly helpful in the weeks prior to our visit. Thank you James! The house is beautiful and the folks taking care of it are lovely. Everything worked well, with the exception of the WiFi which was slow and only really available in the kitchen — not a big deal for us though; we have phones for hot spots & it meant that we enjoyed the resort (and the cafe) for our early morning work calls. Being walkable to the resort’s main restaurant, cafe & tienda was...

"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"
