The ONLY Beachfront Studio Apartment with dipping pool on Playa Ocotal.

9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (60)
"My wife and I couldn’t have been happier with our stay here. The hosts are kind and friendly and made several excellent recommendations for things to do in Ocotal and even helped us map out a route to our next destination. The apartment and property were clean and comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed to make some meals. We spent our evenings in the dipping pool. The beach is about 50 feet from the entrance to the apartment. The bay is beautiful and we saw dolphins near the shore...

Dog-Friendly & Convenient Studio with Shared Pool, Lanai, Water Views

8.4 out of 10, Very Good, (9)
"Positives are, location, neighborhood, secure, and location as pictured. Beach Coffee shops and restaurants were light walks thru safe neighbor hoods. Directions to the property should not only include pictures but distances between pictures in case you can’t recognize, as I struggled with because I was arriving in the dark. Also, a bath towel should not feel like a shammy."

Resort condo with pool - minutes to beaches, shopping & dining

8.8 out of 10, Excellent, (16)
"I enjoyed my stay here. A short ways from town, a quiet location and clean accommodations. I believe that most all listings in the travel apps need much improvement on ease of actual property locations. Pictures of key locks and location of actual unit need to be posted more clearly. Possibly an information letter to greet guests with community information. Contact information, etc. Overall, this unit was very nice!"

Escape to Paradise! Las Brisas Playa Hermosa, 3 bdrm 2 bath with Pool View!

10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (1)
"We really liked the location! We were overlooking the pool which was warm and beautiful. Huge outdoor deck with table and comfy seating (there was also a grill, but we didn't use it). It was a very short walk to the beach. There are a couple of restaurants within walking distance and a supermarket was a couple minutes away via car (there was a closer one but we didn't go to that one). The kitchen was large and fully stocked, i think we were the first people to use the oven/stove and toaster....

"My family and I had a great stay in the condo. Some suggestions are to replace all bath towels , they were stiff and dingy even after washing. One towel tore when I husband used it to dry off. Master bed is on the hard side. Great view and walking is doable not most places it a rental car helped to travel to more places."

COCO BEACH CONDO

3.0 star property
8.0 out of 10, Very Good, (1)
"Arrivée problématique alors que les coordonnées de géolocalisation nous amènent dans un autre endroit que prévu ; le condo n’est d’ailleurs pas situé sur le bord de la plage mais au fond d’une ruelle (entre le Medical &dental center et l’hôtel Savannah). Petits pépins aussi concernant la literie, la douche. Mais empressement du personnel pour régulariser le tout. Donc rapide et efficace, de même qu’accueillant. Très propre et donc personnel attentionné. Avantage par contre d’être près de la...
