Simply WOW! From the moment of booking until farewell, the communication with the wonderful hosts was amazing. The home is literally a million dollar home with multi million dollar views! I had the room which had a massive private patio overlooking the ocean and every evening I fell asleep listening to the waves and woke up each morning to views of the turquoise ocean views from my bed. There are 3 rooms of similar size available for rent and the hosts stay in a separate part of the large home. I felt so welcomed and was so surprised at how gay friendly San Juan del Sur is in general. There are multiple beaches all around and wonderful restaurants along the beach in town. The main city center is a 15 minute walk mostly down the beach and the beach entrance is a 8 minute walk from the home up/down a pretty steep hill. I was so impressed with Nicaragua and the affordable nature and welcoming locals! I can't highly recommend this home enough!
Michael and Halying have been very sweet and incredibly helpful during our stay (border-crossing Nicaragua/Costa Rica, best things to do around, ...). La Villa Arcadia has a great view on the bay and it was a pleasure to wake up in the morning to enjoy a nice breakfast with this view. I strongly recommend this stay.
