Featuring mountain views, El Güis hostel provides accommodation with patio, around 12 km from Maderas Volcano. There is an on-site restaurant and free private parking. The guest house features family rooms as well as facilities for disabled guests.

The location was great as it was near restaurants and central of the island. The owner was amazing and super friendly. She made you feel like home and also organized everything for you that you needed for a fair price. She also gave you fresh towels and bed linens after two days which was nice. The bed was comfortable and had a mosquito net which was nice. The shower was cold but had good water pressure. It was a very nice place.

The atmosphere was exceptional. The stuff was great and very helpful. The location is perfect. There are many options for restaurants. No matter where you're on this island, you need a scooter to get to the beach & sightseeing. But Lazy Crab has a good distance to the most attractions. They have a kitchen with room for your own purchase. The breakfast is really good too and they have free coffee for breakfast.

Featuring a garden and views of mountain, Hostal Bullshark is a recently renovated guest house set in Cuatro Esquinas, 16 km from Maderas Volcano. This property offers access to a terrace and free private parking. The accommodation offers airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available.

We had an amazing stay at Hostal Bullshark! Friendliest and sweetest accommodating hosts, the prices couldn't be beat, and it was really an incredible location for what we wanted: peaceful, close enough to run down the hill to the beach, proximity to the famous Ojo de Agua can't be beat. Great, affordable motorcycles available to rent on-site, the most comfortable hammocks! Very private and perfect for couples or families who are looking to experience Ometepe's incredible nature in a well-placed, authentic setting. If we ever return to Ometepe we will be back!

    We had a great stay with my friend at Ananda Guesthouse! The view was incredible, super easy access from Balgue but also super peaceful and quiet. You feel disconnected when you are there. We also appreciate that they found us a guide to hike the Conception volcano, and they pre-booked our ferry tickets with the car. We will come back !

    The treehouse was well made, the open windows allowed a refreshing cool breeze to flow through. The wifi was good and the shower excellent with hot water, one of the best we have had in Nicaragua. Che was a great host and gave us lots of advice and information.

    Off the grid, welcoming Hostel. Once you walk the 5min path in the jungle, you arrive in the most charming place. I loved the vibe here. The staff is very helping and welcoming. Very good vibe among the guests. Plenty of workshops to keep yourself busy everyday. The sunset from the mirador is beautiful. I’ll be back <3

    El bamboo is in a fantastic location on the shore of the lake in the lovely village of balgüe. The treehouse had everything we needed including a fully equipped kitchen and a fan to keep us cool. The garden surrounding the cabin was beautiful too. Che and Indira were great hosts, always around if you had a problem or needed a local recommendation! Make sure you head down to the lake shore for lovely sunsets behind the volcano Also comedor Isabel down the street had great food!

    Lovely clean and clean hostel, very small capacity so very quiet and lots of comfy areas to chill. The food was the best part, the nicest pasta you will get in Nicaragua cooked by the Italian owner and delicious smoothies aswell.
