Welcome to Mamacitas! Mamacitas is San Juan del Sur’s only true historic home available for rent that has a world class view and modern amenities. The house is a remodeled and modernized, two-bedroom, original plank wood home that four Nicaraguan families have lived and raised their kids in for the past 60 plus years. It is located just a short five minute walk from downtown San Juan del Sur and the cool bay of San Juan.

The house has one of the best views in all of San Juan del Sur and is one of the few houses that YOU CAN HEAR THE WAVES OF THE OCEAN DAY AND NIGHT! There is no better place to catch the breathtaking nightly sunsets than in a hammock or at your own personal bar overlooking the entire bay.

Add that to the cool breeze that runs through the home's huge and plentiful screened windows and there is no need for unhealthy air conditioning. There are five quality fans all around the house and you will acclimatize in no time and limit the constant hot/cold struggle most tourists experience when staying in concrete ice blocks with air conditioning.

Best of all, you will have the opportunity to experience Nicaraguan living before this hillside gets bought up by developers. You have super friendly Nicaraguan neighbors and you can practice Spanish, play with the kids, dogs, and chickens and really dive into real Nicaragua while still having all the amenities like restaurants, bars, internet, etc. just a short five-minute walk down the hill. If you are looking for a unique experience "off the typical tourist trail", this is your place!

Finally, this house is a fundraising project for Peace Pedalers. We
are using rental income to run and support various charity projects in Africa and beyond. Google 'Peace Pedalers' for more information and thanks for considering staying with us!

We keep our availability calendar up to date so check that out to see if your vacation fits the openings of the house.

The house sleeps up to 6 with 2 big beds and two mattresses that can be pulled out and you can sleep on those (but bring your own sleeping bags/linens for the 2 pull out mattresses). More if you want--HAVE FUN! Just please respect the neighbors and the house :)

    Petty Celia ,
    • Thought I would drop you a note about our stay at Mamacitas July 25-Aug 1. My daughter and I had a really great time. What we loved especially about your house (besides the great views and relaxing ranchero) was living for a week in the heart of a neighborhood. Even though we weren't home enough to really get to know the neighbors, it was nice to just say hello and exchange a few words, to interact with the children, and I don't think we would have been able to get a feel for how most Nicaraguans live and play without wandering through the barrio several times a day. A very different experience from staying in hostel or hotel somewhere. Harry was just great and couldn't have been more helpful, even taking us grocery shopping at the new supermarket the first day (we decided not to rent a car). That first day, not knowing how difficult it might be to make arrangements to do what we wanted to do (I have some mild disabilities that I was anxious about), just knowing we could call Harry for questions and assistance provided great peace of mind. He even loaned us a cell phone. Just a great guy. A recommendation for future renters: We got to know the great folks at Casa de Oro hostel and tour services in downtown SJdS. Wonderful people who among other things have made a genuine commitment to support efforts to preserve the turtles at Las Flores, and to provide tours in an ecologically responsible way. It's owned by Nicaraguans, and became the center of our planning and excursions while there. In addition to turtle watching, they arrange for responsible taxi service (much cheaper than renting a car, and easier on old bones than the buses) beach shuttles, horseback rides, surfing excursions, and just about anything you want to do from SJdS.

    • This pad is a dream come true for me. I can walk to town to the bars, beach and restaurant but still get away from the noise and gringos when I want to be in real Nicaragua. The style is super unique and the 2nd story is an oasis of good times. The purple sheets are super soft and I slept like a baby under the fan. I'll be back!

    • I had the honour of staying at this great little San Juan Del Sur get-away for what I must say was the loveliest, most beautiful 2.5 weeks I have experienced. It is truly a surfers dream cabin, tucked away in the lush hillside with a spectacular ocean view. The time, energy and hard work that was dedicated to this little dream project will guarantee that your stay will be top notch! I hope to get back there again in the near future myself! Enjoy! -Kellie, BC, Canada
