Amazing location on the water, and I was the only one staying there so had the run of the place. Beautiful sunsets.

Not the fault of the hotel but the roads in that area are pretty hairy (i.e. muddy, rocky, and more guidelines than roads) so be careful if you plan to moped there in the dark (or in the day for that matter, especially if there has been rain recently).

Super nice simple place off the beaten track. Wonderful location right at the beach. Very nice and helpful staff (only little English). Kayak and bike rental. Tasty food for good value. Waterfall near by. Tours and transportation can be organised. Quite remote so better rent a scooter. The better value for this one is near the ferry but it's available here, too.

Nice secluded location right on the lake, very kind and helpful staff, bicycle rental, room with nice view.

Just have in mind it is a rustic place. The kitchen is also the “restaurant”, so not sure if you can use it as guest. Maybe not the best for solo travelers.

On the beach

Location is bad No kitchen Room was small without a floor Toilet and shower far from the room

-staff was super nice and helpful!! -the location was awesome just in front of the hostel was the lake -the atmosphere was so nice it felt like between friends.

The kitchen could be better equipped and a bit cleaner but it was enough for cooking

Close to the water. I could use the fridge and the kitchen as I had leftovers. People are nice. Quiet place.

Very simple food, not many choices when you don't eat meat. Hard to access in transportation (last bus around 2 pm). I was in a cabin with a friend and the house is open between the roof and the walls so when it's windy, you get colder and you feel the wind in the cabin. Just a very small table for 2 beds to put your stuff and nothing in the bathroom to hold your towel or toothbrush/etc

Personal is very nice and welcoming Very nice view on the lake, beautiful sunsets Drinkable water available but not for free

Far from the arbour, 2 hours in chicken bus from there. Very rudimentary place

It is a little paradise! First we planned to stay only for 2 nights but we ended up staying 6😁 everything is simple and good (beds, food, place in general). You don’t need to worry about anything here. Owners are helpful and just lovely🥰 Best sunset spot as well.

We had a hard time leaving.

Amazing location at the lake with great sun sets. The rooms are clean and right for the price. The staff is incredibly helpful and can get you anything you need for your stay on Omotepe. Would recommend 2/3 nights to visit all the hotspots on the Island.

Rooms can be slightly small if you have a lot of baggage. You should be okay with shared bathrooms that are simple but effective. Rental of a scooter/ motorcycle/ ATV is recommended from this location.

staff

a little far from the main village

Incredible place, I felt like on another planet.

It's in relaxed oasis where you can hang out, come down and enjoy life.

There will be peoble who have problems with the bathrooms.... Shared and not luxurious.

Would go there again! very chill place with very chill people. the staff is such friendly and welcoming. the room was quite small but for this price it‘s nothing to complain about. the food is also very delicious!

The room is right front of the water. Dinner they serve is very nice. Also there is kayak rental on a fair price. They also rent bicycle. The waterfall is not far and can see the beautiful sunset from here. This is not what "i liked and didn't like" but good to know that to reach this place if you rent a motorbike is a 4 km dirt road. You will need a bike not a scooter. Also the direct road leading up to it is in very bad condition. The room gets humid and wet clothes will not dry, not even outside, only if it's on the direct sun. There are no shops or restaurants nearby. It is a quiet location.

The room would need a shelf, we felt we didn't have enough space to put our stuff. There is a hole between the roof and walls and mosquitoes and bugs can come in. The mosquito net above the bed has holes, and the bugs can make their way inside. There are multiple wasps nest around the bathroom and terrace ceiling.

Magic in every piece!!!

Our stay at chocoyos was perfect and very relaxing! Nestor and his family are wonderful, very helpful and sweet. We are traveling as a couple and took the chicken bus (easy and cheap to arrive and depart the area-5 min walk to their place on the water). Merida is not super touristic which we loved, small community with no fancy restaurants but safe and friendly vibes. We took the room with private bath and view of the water. How amazing it was to listen to the waves as you sleep, watch a new sunset every evening, relax in the hammocks and cool off in the lake (a few feet from our room). Everything we needed, Nestor was willing to help. We rented a kayak for the day to explore the river from him and he can help with transport and motorbike to see the island. We loved being able to cook for ourselves and buy local products very close. His family member has a restaurant with coconut ice cream (restaurant de guia) perfect for a break after visiting the amazing waterfall. Don't hesitate, very kind family with everything you need to relax and fall in love with nicaragua!

Nothing

Really flexible

beach, volcano views, sunsets, staff and overall atmosphere. very relaxed.

The location directly at the lake shore is superb. Food was always tasty and the owners kind. You can eat mangoes directly from the trees there in the season and they taste incredible.

A bit simple and just too many mosquitoes - bring repellant. No real food options around but they prepare nice things at the hostel. They don't accept cards although they say on booking.com that they do so bring plenty of cash.

This place is beautifully located and run by the sweetest and most helpful family. Local children and families visit this place all the time and creates life and energy. Watching the beautiful sunset from a chair right on the edge of the lake with the sound of children playing in the background, couldn’t be better

Hospitality , perfect location and good food

Showers could be a little bit better and romms for 4 person are a little bit too small

I stayed in the deluxe room with private bathroom and it was perfect for this tiny village stay. Directly in front of the water, kayaks available for exploration and gorgeous sunsets! The menu is not extensive but you have all the basics and everything was delicious!
