Top El Gigante Hotel Reviews

99 Surf Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Excelente opción para disfrutar de las playas nicaragüenses."

TreeCasa Hotel & Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful property in SJDS . As a family of 4 with 2 kids under 10 this had everything we needed . Food is on the pricier side but one breakfast drink & item is included daily with your stay (portions were big) . Daily shuttle will take you closer to the beach as it is not walking distance. Unfortunately, some of the things advertised on their social media such as “access to a private beach” were not accessible , they could not get us a shuttle to the private beach or provide a clear follow up on why so that was kind of a bummer. Otherwise, the resort itself was amazing."

CASA VENUS! The perfect place to enjoy an unforgettable vacation

10/10 Excellent

"Tuvimos una experiencia maravillosa en esta casa vacacional junto a mi familia y amigos. La casa estaba impecablemente limpia, es muy amplia, cómoda y realmente hermosa. Nos sentimos muy a gusto durante toda nuestra estadía. La atención fue excelente, siempre muy amables y atentos a todo lo que necesitábamos. Sin duda, es un lugar que recomiendo totalmente y al que volveríamos con mucho gusto."

Surf Ranch Hotel & Resort

"es un lugar muy bonito, se pueden ver monos y diversidad de aves, las areas comunes bonitas y limpias."

HC Liri Hotel

"Rooms were clean. staff was helpful."

"Staff was great ."

Morgan's Rock Reserve & Ecolodge

8/10 Good

"Absolutely loved the stay here. The property was stunning. The beach was pristine and quiet, boogie boarding was so much fun for our son. The ocean view was spectacular. I also particularly loved the air conditioning units over the bed, they made a real difference! The reasons for my non 5/5 reviews are this: 1) I’m a big runner/walker. This place was advertised as being able to explore the 4000 hectares solo or with guide. I understand they’ve had challenges with the new highway, but none the less the maps made no sense, nor were there any markers on the trails. I tried to explore beyond the new highelway and either came across trails no longer in use, or confusion from the less than spectacular map. 2) the shrimp farm was dry and not in operation. Rather false advertising on both the website and on the menu advertising “Morgan’s rock shrimp” 3) menu prices are absolutely outrageous. We did eat there at dinner, our choice for not driving 30+ minutes to town and back. No reason at all for a $50 that was “good” but absolutely not worth this price nor justified for the quality of food. The farm breakfast was great."

Black Pearl Inn

10/10 Excellent

"My name is Mark Grayson I’m from Lethbridge Alberta Canada The Black Pearl Inn was absolutely awesome ! From the very beginning when I checked in with Caroline… she was awesome ! The place is spotless, the pool spotless ! The view amazing ! Breakfast incredible ! You’re a two minute walk from the beach. You’re a two minute walk from everywhere downtown laundry restaurants, shops location is amazing. Ya gotta stay here…. You won’t regret it. !!! I would post some photos, but the photos I took don’t do the place justice . I I highly recommend this place… Do it"

Beachfront 3 Bedroom Villa steps from the beach!

10/10 Excellent

"You just can’t find places like this anymore. If you want beach front, woods and wildlife, seclusion and safety - you can’t beat this!"
