Situated 300 metres from San Juan del Sur Beach, 2.8 km from Nacascolo and 3.8 km from Christ of the Mercy Nicaragua, Tapihouse San Juan Del Sur features accommodation located in San Juan del Sur. With a terrace, the 3-star guest house has air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi, each with a private bathroom. Staff on-site can arrange a shuttle service.

Amazing, fun and super helpful staff! They helped us arrange transportation on our day trips, made sure we are safe and not over charged. They prepared us possibly the most delicious breakfast ever! The room was super clean, it had AC but even without it, it had a very nice temperature. The beach is a 3-minute walk away so are shops and restaurants. Highly recommended!

Boasting a garden and views of sea, Hostel SaltWater is a recently renovated guest house set in San Juan del Sur, 200 metres from San Juan del Sur Beach. This beachfront property offers access to a patio, free private parking and free WiFi. The accommodation offers airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available.

Where do I start… Saltwater hostel just reopened with a new look catering to the calmer backpackers / guests who are looking for a place to chill with other like-minded travelers. Less than 5 minutes away from party hostels, pubs and live music if that is what you are looking for. But, you get to return to a sanctuary after a night out! Free breakfast with AC dorm, fan dorms and private rooms caters towards every taste at a reasonable price. Married owners and staff are friendly and good source of information. The view above the busy beach scene is excellent with night noise level limited from the debauchery below. Look no further if the above is your vibe.

    Very clean basic room and very helpful friendly host. Drinking water was available, the shower was powerful and hot, good towels, and the room had very good air conditioning which was welcome. great location very close to the beach and lots of cafes and bars. It was quiet overnight, but quite noisy in the street outside from early morning.

    The location was great and within walking distance to everything you needed but in a quiet area of San Juan. It was kept clean along with the bathrooms. It's not really a hostel but more of a guesthouse.
