Moyogalpa hotels

Pros: Breakfast was good ,nice staff

Cons: you cannot use the kitchen .

Pros: The place is run by a local lady and her family, and everybody is really nice and helpful. If you like the tranquillity and be immersed in a local family context that’s the place for you. The rooms are super clean, nice and spacious with private bathroom. Cheap rates for good value. Nice chilling area full of hammocks. Very good free breakfast...you can choose between two options: pancakes with honey and fruit or typical local breakfast. You can book excursions or rent a motorbike directly at the hostel. Good location right inside the nice village of Moyogalpa, a few steps from good restaurants and markets.

Cons: Nothing. Everything was perfect.

Pros: Friendly staff and good breakfast. Nice hammocks.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Nice guesthouse. Nice family atmosphere. The family is the loveliest and the kindest. Careful and accomodating. Walking distance from the ferry dock in Moyogalpa and close to restaurants, supermarket, ATM and scooter rental agencies. The room is clean and comfortable. Nice breakfast.

Pros: They have the most beautiful toilets in the whole world I wish I could share the picture :-). I can not say anything else you need to see it when you get there. Regarding the accommodation - a super cheap place. That is the best thing about it. We did not have breakfast because we were leaving early in the morning so I can not say anything about breakfast. The staff do not speak English which is not very comfortable but this is quite common in Nicaragua. I would recommend this Hostal to anyone who prefers a cheap place and all he/she needs is a bad, bathroom and roof above your head.

Cons: No hot water but this is also very common in Nicaragua.

Pros: The room was very clean and big. The breakfast had two options, both were delicious. The location is very central and it is not far from the ferry or other restaurants. The host was really nice and very helpful. We booked all of our trips through her and she gave us tips on what to do. I can only recommend this place to anyone who wants to stay on Ometepe.

Pros: Lovely garden with great hammocks to relax in. Breakfast consists of two options, tipico and pancakes with fruits. Both were tasty and I liked that it was included. The staff is friendly. The rooms are very basic but it is also very affordable

Cons: The room price was in dollars but when we paid in cordobas we were given a very very bad exchange rate. It is not even near the actual exchange rate. I felt very bad about it. If you go to this hostel, pay in dollars!

Pros: Hands down to the best hostel with the best hammocks in Nicaragua. Get to know Coco,Mayala, Carlitos, and the dogs Lasi and Blanca. They are very friendly and will make your stay better.

Cons: The shower doesn't have power and flows everywhere.

Pros: Great breakfast. Amazing value for money. Staff was very nice and helpful. Great hammocks that were awesome for relaxing in. Good location close to ferry

Cons: Great host, lovely dogs and great view!

Pros: Close enough to town to pop in for dinner, but secluded enough to feel tranquil. It’s not the Ritz, and if it was it would feel out of place here. It it’s got everything you need for rustic, simple comfort. And the host José couldn’t be any nicer or more accommodating. I loved it here! And I think you will too

Cons: Can’t say anything negative about the place! If you come with the right expectations you’ll love it.

Pros: It's such an amazing hostel! Great view of the volcano, nice rooftop, 2 very cute dogs, Jose and his family are wonderful people, I felt at home! Breakfast is 4 Dollar but definitely worth it, very delicious - better than into town. Muchas gracias José!!!

Cons: Everything was perfect!!

Pros: Loved to stay at el Peregrino, the owner is very helpfull. As soon as he heard about our plan to hike the Concepción Vulcano, he called a guide for us. The location is very nice and quiet, 20 min walk from centre Moyogalpa. But there are a lot of taxi's and tuktuks to take you there aswell:) (only discuss the price with the driver as they charge you too much for only 3km;) ) Had a nice stay at this place:) very comfortable room.

Pros: Very nice experience in El Peregrino！The host José show very much caring and hospitality to his guest！Quiet place at night and very clean rooms

Cons: Hard to find during the night

Pros: Chilled. Comfortable.

Pros: Located about a 5 min ride from Moyogalpa port in a quiet area with a large garden which offers beautiful views of the volcano. Fantastic host who goes out of his way to help you with your stay. We arrived and our host quickly helped us with arranging a scooter rental for the day, gave us plenty of tips, helped us with our onwards travels. This was much appreciated. Delicious breakfast at a fair price. Basic rooms, but very clean and great value for money.

Pros: Probably the best location to stay in Ometepe, with a very good price. The view on the volcano is outstanding, the rooms are clean every day, the living room is absolutely great. The manager always provide good advice for your trip and can help to organize your holidays here in Ometepe. He does everything he can so you can feel at home. Perfect place.

Pros: The owner is amazingly helpful and friendly - he settled everything for us! IT's a really nice and chill place not too far from Moyogalpa, where the ferry arrives. A good place fo sure!

Pros: Great first experience in Nicaragua with local people! All the family is super nice, the lady cooked great breakfast and dinner for us, they sit with us during the meals. Very convenient to rent a scooter to Javier to go around the island. The room we stayed in for 2 nights is located in a rural area that made us feel like part of the local community. 100m away is the lake where you can chill and swim. Overall great quite place, don't hesitate!

Cons: Despite the room being comfortable, the pillows could be a little better

Pros: Super warming family atmosphere. Clean and spacious rooms. Javier mother makes amazing food and the portions are big and tasty. Beach is 50 foot away. Super calm and peaceful. Amazing chilled sunset spot. You can rent a bike, motorcycle (which are brand new), kayak, stand up paddle board... Warm recommendations.

Pros: Nice place to stay with Xavier's family, close to the Beach, walking distance to the town. His father picked us up from ferry dock, that helped a lot to find the place and area. Very good dinner cooked by his mom!!!

Cons: Wifi not avaliable in the room, Just few meters on the beach

Pros: You get a private cabin within the community who lives here. They are super nice and friendly. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a place to stay in Ometepe.

Cons: A bit far away from the city, but on the other hand this place has a private beach, with everything you can think of. And they even offer to cook lunch and dinner for you if you want.

Pros: If you are looking for a homestay and don’t want to be in the busy town. This is the place. The triple room is spacious, has mosquito nets, fans and a hammock on the porch. We joined the family for dinner and really enjoyed their food! After a one minute walk you are at a common area at the lake with a bar, plenty of hammocks and you can swim. We rented scooters via Luis his son and explored the island. Enjoyed our stay!

Pros: The hosts are friendly and very welcoming. Louis picked me up at the ferry (no extra cost). The community area by the lake with hammocks is just wonderful, has Wi-Fi. The room was clean and comfortable, fan, cold shower. Good breakfast. Value for money. I will stay here again before I leave.

Pros: Very special place, part of local community. Very comfortable place with privacy and opportunity to meet local culture and community. Community center is on the beach, with nice places to relax and chill, and to work with amazing view. There is an option to order a dinner in the house, very very fresh and tasty and much cheaper than in restaurants. Highly recommended. also you can order scooter from the place.

Pros: Being part of the family for a few days was a great human experience. The family is extremely welcoming and Luis took us for a tour of the island. I think it's best to have a little Spanish to be able to communicate with everyone as no English is spoken (except for the 2 sons). The house is by the lake and the sunsets were amazing. Thanks to Berner and Luis we will cherish our stay on Omepete.

Cons: Plenty of bugs at night so grateful for the mosquito net

Pros: Very good view - perfect location for sundowner Pool is ok

Cons: No warm water No WiFi in the room Breakfast without fruits, Restaurant not available ~4 $ (Single Drive) for TukTuk to go in the city No safe in the room

Pros: Great view of the lake. The room was clean and the staff was friendly. Helped you with whatever you needed. About a 5 minute walk from the point where you will see the best sunset ever.

Cons: It Is kind of remote. Need a taxi to get around but taxis are cheap for the most part.

Pros: Great location and Ometepe views

Cons: No restaurant and very basic breakfast. The Hotel needs more staff.

Pros: Location was beautifull. Clean rooms. Nice swimming pool.

Cons: Not much staff. Breakfast took 1h30 minutes although there were only 10 persons in the hotel. No possibility to have a drink at the bar.

Pros: Viren colonial style, right in front of the law. Owner was very hospitable and nice.

Cons: No housekeeping

Pros: The ocean view , the rooms were spacious

Pros: The location is amazing. Stunning sunset.

Cons: Yo need a car or motorbike to go there.

Pros: Lovely place run by two very nice ladies with good vegetarian food and chilled vibes.

Pros: I really loved the hostel vibe here! A clean, calm, and colorful place to stay for a great price! The lady at reception is very informative and made us feel very welcomed. The restaurant menu is yummy and very affordable! Free water refills are a bonus! The free breakfast was toast, butter, jam, and coffee or tea... enough to get you started for the day! We'll be back if in moyagalpa.

Cons: Everything was great

Pros: I loved all the greenery on the inside, as well as the old world feel. Then they have a building built of bamboo that is pretty cool too. A nice layout for socializing too!

Pros: Extremely friendly staff, good value for money, tasty and cheap food available full day. Felt like being at home. Thank you

Cons: Bathroom could be in a slightly better condition

Pros: I liked the colors and the vibe of the place. Large common areas and great location. Food and drinks are sold at the site. Free breakfast in the morning. Really cheap price for a private room with en-suite shower.

Cons: Check-in was not a straightforward experience. I had to wait for quite sometime as the owner seemed to ignore me for some reason. Then I was told that I can not have room I booked as the people who stayed in it the previous night were allowed to remain. This is a very unprofessional practice! (I am a hostel owner too). I was given another room without a bathroom where power outlet was far from the bed. A simple re-wiring could have fixed the problem. I ordered some food at the hostel - soya tacos but it was impossible to eat. Even the dogs refused it. My suggestion to the owners is to get some young and energetic volunteers to help with the check-in process.

Pros: We loved our stay here. It’s one of those places that has a really comfortable feel to it. The rooms are a good size and everything is comfortable. The bar and restaurant on site has good vegetarian options for food and is reasonably priced. The staff were always willing to help with whatever we needed and were in general really nice people. We would 100% come back to hospedaje central again!

Pros: Staff is helpfull and friendly. Restaurant is good, also the prices. Single room was big and good. Big common area.

Cons: Breakfast is only toast and jam and coffee/tea.

Pros: We stayed for three nights and liked our stay. Everything in Ometepe is pretty open and basic. Good price-quality ratio. Good location three blocks from the ferry, good WiFi. Nice common area to hang out. Beds were comfy. Breakfast is included, just toast, but for that price its really nice. Staff is nice.

Cons: It was very hot in our room even with the fan which made a lot of noise.

Pros: Nice Family Hotel. Great food.

Cons: A little far from points of interest.

Pros: Everything was so great! Franklin is very kind. He picked us up from the boat and you can ask him anything. Food, excursions, shuttle. Moreover it is a really peaceful place to relax at the pool or in the hammock and there are some friendly birds that talk to you haha. The location is also great. In 20 min you can walk to citycenter where you have nice bars and restaurants or you can take a cheap tuktuk. He is also very helpful and asked if we arrived at our next stop.

Pros: The garden was well set out,you could rest in a hammock or have a swim in the pool.meals were very nice

Cons: The barking dogs at night

Pros: Friendly family that live and work here, definitely supporting a local family by staying. Nice rooms and good value. Lots of huge hammocks around

Cons: A slight walk from the town but not too far. Evening menu was limited but the food was delicious.

Pros: Great location, probably the best looking Casa in Moyogalpa.

Cons: Breakfast took a while, doesn’t seem very organised

Pros: Reel convenient to dock, restaurants, a good location to starting your visit of the island. The hotel offered a lot of exterior comfortable seating and free wifi. Also parking was onsite for the rental car.

Cons: We did not have a shower head.

Cons: The air conditioner is not working as well

Pros: + large breakfast offer + rooftop with vulcano view

Cons: - free coffee does not taste - no air conditioner

Pros: Beautifulf old house with so many cool spots to chill out. Good location, big room with balcony (shared with neighbouring room)

Cons: The only minor let down was the lack of hot water for a shower and shave after a hard day hiking

Pros: Staff were friendly and helpful. Location is central and the hostel offers motorbikes, scooters etc. for rent and organises tours. Breakfast is great and you have a choice between 5 different ones. Rooms were clean and beds comfortable. We had two fans in our room which was sufficient. Great common areas with large hammocks and swings.

Cons: Room could get noisy at night and had a lot of insects in it. A mosquito net would have been nice. We had a triple room for two but otherwise rooms would have been a bit small.

Pros: + rooms well equiped + chill area is a roof top + close to ferry + beds are really comfortable + breakfast tastes (5 choices)

Cons: - no air conditioners (extra pay)

Pros: If you are looking for a cheap and simple room in Moyogalpa, Guest house Nena is a very good choice. The couple who is running the guest house is super nice! They served the best traditional breakfast I had in my three weeks in Nicaragua!

Cons: The room is very basic, small bed, a fan and a shower, no window.

Pros: The family was very nice and a great breakfast.

Cons: The lock to the door I could not figure it out. I was not able to lock the door from inside the room. I had dead bugs every where on the bed and on the floor I couldn't step onto the floor without stepping on a bug. I got to the point it was too much and I left early for another place in town.

Pros: There was a booking mess up and the room I had booked was taken, so the family moved in together and gave me one of their rooms. Very nice people. It is very close to the ferry dock and you can easily walk. Go up the main street for 3 blocks (there is a restaurant La Esquinita Caliente) and turn left. It's about 100m from there.

Pros: Very good place. Staff is very kind and attentive. Food was excellent.

Cons: The final 500 m of road to reach the hotel is precarious.

Pros: The hotel itself is great and staff efforts to give you the best service they can offer

Cons: 1. The roadway access to the hotel is dirty road and would love to see it paved, or interlocked

Pros: Great straff, really nice hotel, lagre pool and rooms. We enjoyd our Stay, and would really recommend this hotel!

Pros: New, clean, very quiet, excellent food, great service, and a fun pool. The port of San Jose is within walking distance (along the beach). The staff went out of their way to accommodate us, even giving us personal tours. Great value!

Cons: It is slightly off the main road and a bit of a drive to the main attractions.

Pros: The staff were wonderfull we were the only ones here

Pros: The staff were EXTREMELY kind and made sure to make us as comfortable as possible! They were attentive and wanted to accomodate us! They even went and bought a bottle of Tequila because I requested it! Nioscar is the manager of the hotel and the villas has only been running for 2 months.. I can only say I was impressed. The place was clean, had a late open bar and the bigggest pool on the island. Eddy behind the bar, Gabriel and his litte monkey Paco as well as the ladies in the kitchen and Alexandra (Nioscar's daughter) made us appreciate Ometepe that much more! We enjoyed the food, the drinks and our little cozy cabanas!!

Cons: A bit far from all the sites of attraction, but if you can find a way around it's worth coming back to. We rented a quad which was great but the price wad high and we were given time frames when initally the deal was for the day. The whole deal wasn't clear.

Pros: Very close to the ferry. Very cheap place to stay.

Cons: Cockroach in the bathroom, room was not clean.

Pros: The owner was really kind and helpful. He made us feel at home, and we had interesting chats about Nicaraguan culture. Included breakfast was very nice, changed every day. Owner gave us good advice for places to eat and activities to do. Helped us rent a scooter for a very good price. Location is perfect!

Cons: Bathroom and kitchen were not very clean.

Pros: Nice, funny place, the owner is great, give advices and is helpful, gave me free motor ride visiting local bars and restaurants, you can rent cheap motor/scuter here, really good brakfest, very nice people and travellers here.

Cons: A bit dirty in the kitchen and bathrooms. I ordered dinner and had to wait 3 hours (!!!) and it was not tasty!

Pros: Allen was an excellent host, he was always helpful with anything we needed and made us feel welcome from the be very first day. The place it's quite simple but lovely and location is close to the stores, main plaza and the port for the ferry. Can't recommend this place enough!!

Cons: N/A

Pros: Nain and Baira were very friendly and helpful. They made me feel as part of the family. The private room l booked was clean and comfortable, with a nice mattress. The hostel was cleaned regularly during the day. The kitchen was very well equipped.

Cons: A mirror and some hooks in the bathrooms would make showering more comfortable.

Pros: Staff was very nice food good and easy to find from the ferry

Cons: The kitchens was dirty, the guest fridge had old food in it and was not working. The kitchen fridge was dirty with old food. Sink full of dishes and ants everywhere. I have a private room out back. No screens on windows and bugs

Pros: The staff is cool, the place is relax and the animals are cute. The breakfast changes everyday.

Cons: You need to know that sometime Ometepe has some problem having water, but the hostel cannot really do anything about it so it's ok. Also, 3 others guests got an accident with a scooter and got riped off by a taxi driver. The owner of the hostel could have made an effort to help them to get out of this crisis but he choose not to intervene and I think he should have. He clearly saw it was a problem but didnt wanted to be involved which shows that he doesnt really care about his guests if they are in need of something.

Pros: The garden to hang out and enjoy a little breeze is just perfect. We had a family room with enough space for few people, although we were just 2, very clean place. The owners let us use the fridge, which was great. You can rent a scooter or a motorbike with them too.

Pros: Lovely hosts.

Pros: Just a small place with only 2 or 3 rooms I think. Rooms were big and included 2 fans and private bathroom. Friendly family who is really helpfull. Small fridge that could be used by guests. Just a 10 minute walk away from the harborz

Cons: We missed some insect screens in front of the windows. This could improve the place a lot! Besides that a lot of antz in our room, after killing them first night it was better :)

Pros: Big room, comfortable bed, lovely rocking chairs in a beautiful garden. Nice and quiet location, 10 minute walk from the Port. Clean toilet & shower with soap and towels, and good fans. Martin was an excellent host. We would definitely return.

Pros: Very close to the ferry and in the centre of the town. A good starting point to get around the island (we rented a moped from them and it was easy to explore the island). The room is basic and exactly as shown in the pictures. The price is fantastic. Staff were great and we had a lovely stay. Lovely and friendly dog also.

Cons: It is a very quiet hostel and not much atmosphere (were could be a good thing). The tap in the sink didn't really let off much water and more of a spray than flowing water (the shower was fine though although a little cold).

Pros: A nice cabina with terrace and chairs, hammocks, breakfast service if you want. Very close to centre and exept lots of barking dogs and card playing owners a quiet but centric location (by foot from ferry). The cabina has private bathroom, ceiling fan, very good value for money.

Cons: No cleaning of bathroom or change towels, take out garbage in many days.

Pros: Room and bathroom were clean, beds were comfy, staff was very helpful.

Cons: We were the only clients in the hostel. This could be positive because the place is calm but if you are interested in getting to know some new people while travelling, you are probably not going to do it there. There was no vibe.

Pros: Good aircondition, localization.

Cons: Spiders webs, one cockrouch in the bathroom. We had different price on booking.com and problems to resolve it with our hosts during check in. Very poor wifi.

Pros: Good location, close to the centre of town and short walk to the ferry. Friendly staff. Beautiful gardens with different relaxing areas.

Pros: Location was great. A couple blocks off the main thoroughfare, so it was fairly tranquil, but not far at all to restaurants, grocery stores, etc.

Pros: The place

Cons: We’re almost alone in the structure, when we left for the check out we just have put the money on the bed

Pros: Calm place

Cons: Staff - mo english

Pros: Quiet Nice staff Close to town

Cons: Hard to find but since remedied by adding to google maps. Couldn’t use the kitchen. Many other cheaper options locally, but could only be found when in town, they aren’t online.

Cons: They gave us a room without a window and no bathroom door. Ceiling was not isolated, so anything could have come in.

Pros: Owners very friendly and helpful. Early check in a bonus. Pool.

Pros: Good internet, nice staff,

Pros: The breakfast was very nice, the staff was lovely, they let me borrow a helmet for the day. The room was basic, there was parking.

Cons: The only thing was the pool was empty so we couldn’t swim. The bed was ok but not the most comfortable.

Pros: Restaurant/bar on site serving cold beers (C$30) and tasty evening meals - all reasonably good value for money given it's a small island (around C$180 for a meal). They have 5 'tipico' dishes each served with variations of rice, beans, tostones, salad: beef, pork, chicken, steamed fish, fried fish. The beef and pork seemed like quite cheap cuts as they were very tough but the sauces served with them were very tasty, unfortunately they didn't have any fish on the evening we ordered it so we went for the pasta dishes - big mistake, best to avoid these less typical dishes! The family are friendly and helpful, especially their son who helped us top up our Nica sims. The hostel is very close to Charco Verde (you can walk there) which makes a nice half day trip. Beautiful friendly dogs live there and there is a nice small pool. Close to the San Jose ferry port (15 mins walk max.) - the owner very kindly drove us there the morning we left in time to catch the 7:20 ferry.

Cons: The room had no windows so was hot when the door was closed. There was an aircon unit cemented into the wall but the buttons were broken so you could only turn it down, not up, so it was a bit too cold with it on. There weren't enough sockets in the room in useful places to charge phones (e.g. beside bed) and have aircon and have the bedside lamp plugged in so had to choose - not a big problem but a bit annoying. Apart from Charco Verde (which is very close), there was not much else nearby and we were told my the owner that there wasn't really a way to get to other activities without a car as the public bus would take too long and the roads deteriorated once off the island's one main road so, a motorbike wouldn't have worked. We did laundry here which was useful but they don't have a raised clothes line, just a line that runs along the hedge. As it was very windy our clothes kept blowing off the line (they don't seem to have any pegs!) into the dirt path, bushes, swimming pool or anywhere else (I found my underwear in the bottom of the pool that day lol) - consequently everything was a bit dusty/dirty when we got it back.

Pros: Good value for money. Rooms were fine and there’s a nice area to socialise in upstairs.

Cons: No drinking water available, had to buy at the bar.

Pros: Great place to stay!

Pros: The location is great!!! And the rooftop area was awesome!!!

Pros: Very friendly staff, convenient location, nice restaurant with Mexican food next door, we stayed 3 nights and got new fresh towels on the second day, very good and silent airco, nice common area to chill.

Cons: Be aware that the private bathroom is only separated from the room by a wall, but that was not a problem for us.

Pros: Just beside the ferry terminal on the main road.

Cons: No hot water.

Pros: Room was large and clean.

Cons: The hotel was 1.4km from the main road so had to hire transport or get taxi to do anything. First day we were told the restaurant was open 07:00 - 18:00 but the staff wanted to work 08:00 - 17:00 and was a real uphill battle to get a breakfast early or a dinner after 17:00. The prices of the drinks (hot and alcoholic) were extremely high compared to all other places we went to in Nicaragua. They also only have overpriced 500ml bottles of water. No free drinking water.

Pros: Very friendly staff, helpful with supplies and transportation. Petroglyphs!!! Close to the beach if you’re into that. And good Nica food of course (breakfast included).

Cons: More paths; I kind of expected this so this could be my own hangup. Initial staff response on the first night was slow, though we did eventually get to someone.

Pros: Beautiful place, very quiet, in total nature, with a beautifully pool.... Rooms are very nice, internet is efficient. The food was excellent and not too pricy, The staff was very friendly. I appreciate very much the fact that we are in a very quiet environment surrounded by nature, trees, flowers, birds....etc.... It is very relaxing.... You live in total nature The best place to stay on Isla de Ometepe.......you rent a car, scooter or motorcycle from Moyogalpa....you stay a this hotel and you can go where you want.... At night you come back to the hotel and you just relax and enjoy... It is a little paradise on a paradise island.. I recommand strongly

Cons: Nothing wrong
