Casa Amarilla is a brand new beach front home located in the small fishing village of Gigante, Nicaragua. The home is located only 80 miles from the Managua Airport on the beautiful South West Pacific Coast of Nicaragua. The home is located in a large, family owned gated area that provides maximum privacy and security.
The coastal area around Gigante is world famous for surfing, but fishing and snorkeling are also excellent in the area. Several surf breaks and an excellent snorkeling bay are within walking distance of Casa Amarilla. If you'd like to explore more of the coast, boat rentals for surfing, snorkeling, fishing and sightseeing excursions are available in Gigante. Hiking and nature watching are also excellent in the area with easy walking access. See the website on this ad for lots more information about Casa Amarilla and the area.
The house is 190 square meters (2100 sq ft) with a large veranda overlooking the beach and ocean. The home has a large master bedroom with a master bath. There is a large second bedroom with an adjacent second bathroom. Both bedrooms are equipped with very quiet "split unit" air conditioners. The Master bedroom is furnished with a queen size bed and the Guest bedroom is furnished with a King Size bed that can be converted to two twin beds. Additional sleeping accomodations for children can be made in the living room by using two very comfortable twin size air beds. The home has a very spacious kitchen, dining room and living room. The kitchen is fully equipped with stove, refrigerator, microwave, cooking and eating utensils. The main sala, dining area and kitchen have a cathedral ceiling with four ceiling fans. The house is elevated 3 ½ meters off the ground, providing panoramic view of the beach and breathtaking sunsets! The large area underneath the house is paved for vehicle parking and equipped with hammocks to relax in the shade. An "Owner's Suite" is located downstairs where the Manager lives. Daily house cleaning is provided and change of linens and towels every other day is also provided.
One big advantage of staying at Casa Amarilla is that the Pie de Gigante Restaurant is located in the same large gated area. Casa Amarilla is equipped with a full kitchen and there is a stocking service available for the home. But if you want the occasional (or frequent) convenience of excellent meals without the work, the restaurant is just steps away! The restaurant offers cafe style meals and is equipped with a bar. See the restaurant website on this ad for more information.
A full time manager who speaks fluent English is on site and can help you with any questions during your stay. There is also a night watchman/gardener who lives within the compound for additional security.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2009
Ben and Ofelia live part of the year in Nicaragua and part of the year in the US. They have four grown children and one grandson. They both love spending their free time outdoors enjoying the natural environment, particularly in Nicaragua. They also enjoy traveling to other countries where they can find natural environments, good food and wonderful people.
Why the Owner Chose Bahia Gigante
Ben & Ofelia have built Casa Amarilla to serve families and couples who are looking for pristine beaches, warm Pacific water and opportunities to explore one of the world’s most beautiful and uncrowded coasts. Casa Amarilla was built to provide the comforts of civilization on the remote and private south west Nicaraguan coast.
The Unique Benefits of this House
Casa Amarilla offers a unique opportunity to experience Nicaraguan culture in a small working fishing village. You can enjoy the ocean, beaches, surf and wildlife within a community that depends on nature for their livelihood. There are lots of places in the world where you can isolate yourself from the locals by staying in tourist centers full of North Americans and Europeans. Casa Amarilla provides the opportunity to experience the culture and people as well as the landscape.
