Villa vacation rentals in Rivas

Very beautiful place to stay, you can literally walk right up to the ocean.

The beach house was amazing, exactly the peace and quiet we were looking for. Having the beach right outside the gate was incredible, and we found plenty of great restaurants just a short drive away. The team was super friendly and responsive; Harry and Ossiel made sure everything went smoothly throughout our stay. I’d definitely recommend it and would stay here again if I’m ever in the area. Overall, a great experience!

We recently stayed at Dan's house for five days; we were a group of six. The property itself was great, with stunning views of the Pacific Ocean, a well-equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, and plenty of space to move around. I saw some reviews saying that you need a 4x4 to get there. We rented a Toyota Rush with a small engine, six people, with six carry-on bags and backpacks, and we were able to get in and out of the house. We want to give a shout-out to the caretakers who live onsite. One of the A.C. units broke down, so I called Harry, the property manager, and he sent out a Tech. Within 20 minutes, he was there to fix it. Well done! We will stay at Casa Irie next time we visit SJDS.

Hana was a great host! Her place is beautiful and modern, nicely nestled in a lush jungle environment. You can tell that she put a lot of work into her home — high quality furniture, artisan utensils, beautiful bowls and plates — the Airbnb had all the amenities you can think of, and whenever we had issues, Hana was always prompt to resolve them for us. We can’t wait to be back!

Staying at Tierra Nahua for 3 weeks was perfect. It's a peaceful place in the heart of Limon 2, perfect for a couple and surfers. We had a lot of privacy and tranquility there. Paz is a wonderful human and a great host. She was always available if we had questions. The place itself is 2min walk from the beach and close to many things. We would stay there again for sure if we come back !!

We had a beautiful family experience at Cara y su Casa Cartagena. The house was fully equipped with everything we needed for a weekend filled with shared meals and fun. The rustic style was absolutely charming, but what truly stood out was the incredible assistance from the cleaning and maintenance staff. They were attentive at all times and managed to resolve minor issues in record time. It was a perfect stay, and we would return without a doubt.

Very nice house to rest and vacation with the family,

We had an amazing stay here. We actually wished we had an extra day to just chill and enjoy the pool and view. Saw so many birds, monkeys, and a sloth. Def need an SUV for the area and the roads leading to the house. Also, you are in the wild, so expect critters to be around. Nothing was in our bed, and we slept fine, though! Communication was quick and easy, and everything was great. We were glad we were away from the noise of the town and figured we would have to drive to the beaches anyway, so we might as well get something with a view! 10/10 recommend!

The home was beautiful and so was the location. We were barely home, but when we were there it was beautiful. A few things I would recommend is to make sure you have a 4x4 SUV to make getting to the property easier. The other thing would be to stop and buy some necessities, like paper towels for the kitchen. Other than that our stay was lovely. The home was way bigger than we needed, and it was 10 of us.

We were satisfied with the service, it was easy to communicate with Eduardo, excellent cleanliness, and we were super comfortable for a family of 24 people

We loved it! Definitely coming back!

We had a wonderful time at this house, it had everything we were looking for, very private and literally views on views, also Courtney and the house staff were very professional and proactive, the communication was excellent! We will be happy to be back on our next trip to San Juan del Sur!

We had the most incredible stay at this beautiful beach villa in Nicaragua! The location is perfect – just steps away from the best beach, where we could enjoy stunning sunsets and the sound of the waves all day long. The villa itself is beautiful, with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The hosts were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making me feel right at home from the moment we arrived. We felt completely secure throughout our stay, with a peaceful and safe atmosphere. An added bonus were the stairs down to the beach….which added some daily exercise. We would stay here again – it was an unforgettable experience! Highly recommend!

Unbelievable Ocean View Home with Resort Amenities, Perfectly Located! We had the pleasure of staying in this stunning home, just a block away from town and four blocks from the beach. The ocean views from the property are truly unbelievable! Every morning, we were greeted with breathtaking panoramas that made each day special. The home is located in a private, safe and quiet gated community which offers resort-like amenities including a full time concierge, a club house, snack bar and swimming pool, outdoor gym, co-working space and even chef and massage services, that added an extra touch of luxury to our stay. The proximity to both the town and beach was incredibly convenient, allowing us easy access to local shops, restaurants, and seaside activities without needing to drive. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a luxurious escape with exceptional views and prime location!

Everything is super cute, with an impressive view and the host is very friendly and hospitable ... recommended 💯

Really nice house with great view, perfect for a weekend stay with a big group of friends or family!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Amazing Stay! We had an incredible experience at this beautiful home! Everything was clean and clearly well maintained, which made us feel comfortable and right at home from the moment we arrived. The location was perfect—close to everything we needed, yet tucked away enough to feel private and peaceful. The attention to detail throughout the property really stood out, from the tasteful decor to the thoughtful amenities. It’s worth noting how well-equipped the home is: it has a generator and water pump, so we never had to worry about any disruptions during our stay—huge peace of mind! Our host was super friendly and maintained excellent communication from booking through checkout. Every question we had was answered promptly and helpfully, and it was clear they truly care about providing a top-notch guest experience. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for a relaxing and reliable getaway!

Absolutely loved our stay. The house is incredible, the rooms comfortable. The beach is 160 steps down, and really is a nice little walk. The caretaker who lives on property is extremely accommodating, and can grocery shop, cook, and more. My suggestion is to rent a 4x4 vehicle. The roads into town are very steep, we thought we could either get scooters/motor bikes but our entire group wasn’t skilled enough. Or we thought taxi, we got one taxi and he couldn’t make it up a hill, asked us to get out of the car, rolled it back and charged back up the hill. We then rented a vehicle in San Juan and it was perfect. For us it was the right choice, close enough to town but quiet and peaceful with its own beach and gorgeous views! Would absolutely come back!

Amazing Beach House! This place is absolutely wonderful. The house itself is beautiful and well-maintained, and the location is spectacular—perfect for anyone who enjoys privacy and relaxation. It's just a short walk to some fantastic restaurants, which made our stay even better. We had such a great experience and will definitely be visiting again!

The host Mary Jane was absolutely amazing. The Airbnb was beautiful, the photos did not do it justice. The house was roomy and the decor was very nice. It was in a closed off gate and private with a guard on duty every night. Mary sent so many awesome recommendations for us to go and eat. She even arranged taxis for us and was super responsive. She was very nice with my family and personable, she remembered every little details about them and accommodated my grandmother. I will definitely be back and I couldn’t recommend her enough! 10/10 experience

Great place to enjoy as a family. Spaces and amenities in excellent condition. Definitely a place I recommend visiting.

A super cozy place, with everything you need to spend a few days on the beach!! Excellent and recommended

The villa is very nice and comfortable, well equipped to provide all the necessary amenities, the place is very quiet, the staff very friendly and the host very helpful and kind. The amenities of the villas are very nice, well-equipped, always clean and tidy I would definitely go again!!

Marta and Steve’s home was an absolute dream! We chose Rancho Santana for a surf trip to celebrate my 40th birthday, and it turned out to be a truly life-changing experience. This was our first time visiting Nicaragua, and we couldn’t be more grateful. The hosts provided incredible personal recommendations—drivers, surf guides, fishing, things to do, and the best surf spots—which made our trip effortless and memorable. Their housekeeper, Anna, warmly greeted us upon arrival, and to my surprise, they had a thoughtful birthday gift waiting for me! Anna kept the condo spotless throughout our stay. The condo itself was beautifully decorated, exceptionally comfortable, and had an amazing ocean view. The kitchen was fully equipped, and we really appreciated all the thoughtful extras like a cooler and beach towels. Rancho Santana is absolutely stunning—lush flowers, tropical trees, incredible restaurants etc. Every part of our trip exceeded expectations, and we can’t wait to come back!
