We had a really amazing three days stay at Verdad Resort. The architecture of the whole resort is remarkable and every detail is well thought. Nice and clean cabins with great view from the balcony to the ocean. Very tasty food (breakfast and dinner) with fresh ingredients. And excellent attention paid by the whole team. Without any doubt I can recognize this place to everybody who looks for some unforgettable holidays.
As we just landed from Nicaragua back to our normal lives, Verdad has just become our second home. And it has felt like it for our entire stay. I would not have enough characters here to tell all about it, all about how grateful we are after spending three life-changing weeks at Verdad. Strange times - we were blocked in the country because of co-vid and were the last clients at the hotel. Marc and his unique team treated us like family, took care of us, shared and surfed so much with us everyday. Ocean views, food, interior design, yoga studio at sunrise, sound healing sessions, swimming pool, massages, surfing, pristine beaches, every single detail was perfect and felt like paradise on earth. « Nica times » they say .. Time stops at Verdad. In fact our experience made us reconsider the way we saw our speedy routines. Brought us back to the simple things that matter the most. Essential things we often forget in our "western societies". We simply reconnected with ourselves, with each other and our environment. Architecturally and aesthetically speaking, it feels like the hotel was designed for the sole purpose to unwind and feel so much freedom. We woke up every morning with a true feeling of blessing and wellness. We have traveled and lived abroad quite a lot, but this place is just MAGIC. We can’t thank enough this amazing, dedicated team. We already miss your smiles, kindness and love. Marc, we can't thank you enough !…
Verdad provides a luxury experience without the pretension. The casitas are nestled on a hillside with views of the Pacific and situated with privacy in mind. The owners and the staff are so kind and friendly and will take care of all of your extracurricular planning while you are there. Oh, and the food is INCREDIBLE - they are happy to accommodate any dietary restrictions. I led a small yoga retreat here and it was perfect. The yoga shala is stunning and is equipped with Manduka mats, blocks, belts, and bolsters. I personally found Verdad to provide the perfect balance of quiet relaxation and adventure within its secluded community. If you are looking to escape urban reality, the is the perfect spot to stay!
I came to Verdad to reset, relax, and recharge and left feeling better than I could have ever imagined. I spent weeks looking into different retreat centers that could provide me with activity, yoga, and security. I’ve been on many yoga retreats throughout the years, and I was looking for something a little different this time. I wanted to push myself out of my comfort zone and when I saw that Verdad offered yoga and surfing, I was intrigued. Initially, I did worry about the remote location and the difficulty of getting to Verdad as a female traveling solo. However, the more I looked into Verdad and everything it had to offer including exercise, delicious native food, walking access to a beach or lounging by the pool, and being able to practice my Spanish with the Nicaraguan staff, the more I wanted to go. Staying at Verdad was one of the best decisions I’ve made in a while. I was truly able to understand the true Nicaraguan experience, learn how to surf, and fully decompress from the strains of my everyday life. Above all, I never felt uncomfortable or unsafe from the time I landed in Managua to when I closed my room door to go to sleep at night. The Verdad staff made me feel at home. And for a 23 year old female traveling to a remote location, a sense of security is an essential component to a successful vacation. Another thing that I loved about staying at Verdad was that everything was so accessible and easy, which definitely took the pressure off of me. I didn’t have to plan a lesson with a surf instructor, find a nice place to eat, or arrange transportation to town. Unlike many other package deals, Verdad really does have it all. Verdad is a hidden gem, filled with beautiful scenery, kind and beyond helpful staff, and some of the most interesting people I’ve ever met. You’d be doing yourself an injustice not to join the Verdad family and experience the costa dulce life style.…
Verdad is paradise. If you are reading this because you are thinking about booking a trip there, stop reading, and go book it! I returned from a solo trip to verdad three weeks ago, and have been trying to put into words how spectacular it was ever since. From the moment I stepped out of the airport in Liberia and saw my name on the sign of the person who Wesley had organized me to meet, I felt taken care of.. This feeling only grew during my time at verdad.. The people who work at verdad are truly special- so kind and friendly and so gifted at everything they do.. From the incredible surf instruction to the magnificent meals to the sparkling cleanliness of everything to the wonderful conversation (and patience with my sub-par Spanish)- there was not a thing that was overlooked.. I stayed in a pool room, which was so lovely.. the exercise space has everything you could possible hope for, in addition to jaw droppingly beautiful views.. The beach, that is a short walk, is stunning, wonderful for swimming and surfing, and has a turtle hatchery (check out vital actions to support amazing conservation work), and hammocks to relax.. I went for a vacation, and came back, not only more relaxed and better at surfing, but also with new friends.. I am counting the days until I go back! ** in case you are reading this and debating signing up for the surf package- DO IT! The instruction is top-notch, you get to watch daily videos to help you improve, and the guys teaching- Wesley, Alex, Tony- care so much about truly teaching you, and making sure that you are capable of knowing what to do to safely surf at home (or elsewhere).. …
