We found Popoyo on a map after several days in SJDS and decided we needed to check it out. We didn't have any information on the area or hotels though. It is very remote to get to on dirt roads and several buses but worth the adventure. After checking all the hotels (only a handful to choice from). We settled... More

Place could not have been better. The customer service was excellent. From the communication 6 months prior to the arrival of our group of 8 people to the services we received by the entire staff once we were there. They were able to help with everything from arranging surf boards to boat trips. Price is very reasonable and the drinks/food... More

Great hotel, perfectly prepared for surf lovers, and the most suitable in the area for couples and families. Service specially nica and proffesional. Restaurante el Toro is always a good option, staying here or rest of accomodations in Popoyo

I stayed here with some other surfers in June 2012. Everything about here was great, the food, the distance to the beach (1 minutes walk), the pool area with hammocks, the lovely clean rooms. The price is pretty good, $18 a night if you are sharing and $40 for a single room. A special mention for Bexy (spelling?), and the... More

We were in Nicaragua (our second trip) for 18 days and decided to spend a few nights at the beaches in Popoyo. Hotel Popoyo is the first hotel on the road that lines the beach so we decided to check it out. I was immediately impressed on how clean and meticulously landscaped the hotel was. They had two types of... More
