Rivas Department Family friendly Hotels

"Nice rooms, very clean, great views of beach, very close to all town restaurants/stores, etc. Restaurant was great with friendly staff. Housekeeping as excellent. Would highly recommend. "

"The most beautiful property you can find in Nicaragua. With 5 separate beaches and endless activities and 3 restaurants. This place spares no cost to ensure luxury delivered at all times. That being said, prepare your pocket book. "

"Amazing views! Great hospitality."

"Room was clean with nice amenities. It was so peaceful, we really enjoyed our stay."

"Staff was amazing! The rooms and bed comfortables and the lighting was warm. A relax ambiance immediately hit your senses. Hammocks in the front of the room inviting and took a two hour nap shortly after arriving. Shower was one of the best I had in Nicaragua. To complete the showering experience, missing shampoo and conditioner. Dinning phenomenal. Bar well stocked. However the hotel has room for improvement such as improve the 2km driveway and stairs heading to the lake and some dencing need attention. Amazing staff! I would stay here again here for a least a month if i could do it again. "

"Better than expected. Highly recommend. "

"It was allright"

"The drive in is pretty scary (especially in the dark) however the stay is absolutely worth it! Not too many other places around. Ocean is rocky right out front. Pool and amenities are amazing. All the excursions are so worth it. The detail to this place is impeccable. The best thing about my stay was the staff. They remember you and are as personable as one can be. LOVED our stay and will be back. "

"The views from this place are stunning! Great view of the lake on both sides of the island, as well as a great view of the volcano (we came during rainy season so it was mostly covered by clouds). The food selection is a bit limited and not the best we had on trip, but still good! The best part about this stay was their massage service, I didn’t catch her name but WOW she did an amazing job and it was only $35 USD for an hour of the best massage I’ve ever gotten. The local cat Coco who sleeps on the property is so sweet and cuddly! My one complaint about this stay is that the main road was closed (not sure how it is normally), so you’re required to travel up a pretty steep and sketchy dirt road that is filled with large rocks - only certain types of cars can make it and it floods whilst raining. To get to the main road you need a way down this dirt road, which is probably a little over a mile. I felt too sketched out to go down it on the ATV’s you can rent (for $70 USD a day), but then you must pay for a driver down. So, overall, the views are amazing but in order for those views you need to sacrifice being a bit out of the way. We rented an all day driver for $75 USD who took us to the chocolate farm, ojo de agua, and playa de mango - all were AMAZING! (My other complaint is that the mosquitoes here are out of control, my boyfriend got eaten alive. The rooms have a bug net over the bed but other than that have some openings to the outside, so we did have a cockroach)"
