Typically Johanne and I are just off the beaten path, so you will not find any all inclusive in our list of places to stay. We are happy when we find quiet, clean, safe and convenient.

We appreciate the friendly, warm and helpful hosts and have had wonderful experiences at the following places:

P.S. We draw the line at a shared bath.

 

Rates Between $25 and $65

 

Little Corn Island- Casa Iguana

Amazing Location, good value and a very nice place for breakfast with Azul view.

Our little casita hung right on the cliff and we slept to the sounds of the Caribbean surf.

Leon-Hostel Mariposa

A delightful retreat from the bustle that is Leon. A short cab ride to town. A lovely French couple recently bought this place and are doing a great job of providing an enjoyable experience. 

Marvelous French cooking is a bonus.

La Boquita – MYRINaMAR B&B

Right on the cliff with a spectacular sunset Pacific view sits this lovely retreat. Owned by two wonderful women who know about hospitality.  We had the great fortune of celebrating New Years Eve 2015 there and were treated royally. Just 20 minutes from Diriamba on a very good road.

This is an easy surfer shuttle from SJDS, a very special place to enjoy the stellar beach.  We stayed here for three nights and loved it. (no other place to eat, but the food was fine).
