Panga Vista is a luxury 2BR/2BA Beach Front condo just steps away from some of the best surf on the planet. We are located in Hacienda Iguana, one of Nicaragua’s premier gated golf resort developments. Our group of condos is called Villas Iguana and it is the only condo project in Hacienda Iguana actually on the beach. You and your friends or family can wake up, check the surf from your balcony and then go get tubed.
Unlike Costa Rica or El Salvador, this small area of Nicaragua has year round deep water swell and 300+ days a year of all 24 hour offshore winds blowing in from Lake Nicaragua. No matter what kind of board you ride, there are lefts, rights, and at least 8-10 breaks in the area just for you. Two of the best, Colorado and Panga Drops are on the beach just outside your front door.
We know your vacation time is precious, so Patty and I live just 300 feet down Playa Iguana’s beautiful white sand beach to help ensure that your stay with us is perfect. You can rent your own car or if you like, we can arrange for our trusted bilingual driver to pick you up at the airport, take you grocery shopping, sightseeing and deliver you to your home away from home.
Plus there is more than just great surf available. In addition to sunset beach walks and drinks, we can show you birds, monkeys and wildlife on jungle and river walks. An hour’s walk down the beach through Playa Amarilla and you’ll find yourself in the little fishing village of Gigante enjoying fresh lobster and an ice cold beer. Full or half-day tours, horseback rides or boat trips to fish or explore more remote surf breaks are a bargain and easily arranged. Panga Vista even has its own Golf Club Membership, allowing you to play on our 10-hole course at reduced rates. Whatever you need, we will do our best to make it happen.
Or you can relax with a good book in your luxury condo’s balcony hammock or just fall asleep listening to the waves. Each room has A/C, wireless internet, satellite TV and our own battery powered electrical backup system. The kitchen is modern and includes everything you need for meal preparation and all the amenities. If you do not feel like cooking, Don Elroy’s restaurant and bar is onsite or we can arrange a local cook to prepare some or all of your meals.
Great surf, luxury beach front accommodations, loads of activities in one of the most beautiful spots in the world -- all at a great price. Please contact us if we can answer any questions or help in any way.

Beach Front Condo on Panga Drops and Colorado Surf Breaks
Year Purchased: 2006
Why the Owner Chose Tola
After 35 years in the hospitality business in the US, we searched for a beautiful, safe secure place to retire with lots of activities, friendly people, offshore winds and world-class surf. We found it in Nicaragua.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
We asked our guests what they like best about staying with us. All mention the epic surf, our luxury beach front condo, local activities in one of the most beautiful surf destinations in the world. But then they tell us that what really sets Panga Vista apart is that Patty and I are onsite 24/7 to make your stay perfect. Hope to see you here soon.
Owner's Map of Tola
After a long search, Patty and I first came to Nicaragua in 2004, bought our condominium and watched as they built our new home. Our first night and nearly every night since has been a great adventure. We are San Diego raised, lived, and worked in Idaho from 1972-2000 and we are now proud to call Nicaragua home.
