“Condo drama / best snorkelling / fun time. 2 adults, 2 children.”
The condo itself is very simple, which is understandable considering they rent to strangers. There was enough space for all 4 of us to not get on each other's nerves lol. 2 bathrooms was great too with all four of us. It would have been great to have access to laundry facilities. We made due until we went to Santa Ana, C.R. Kitchen had everything we needed. Good place for what you pay.
The area, grounds, and people were great. Tito, Denise & Frank, Jason & Jocelyn, all super friendly, and great people.
It's a hike to get to the beach, we did walk it a few times, but by the end of the day we were all tired and the walk was miserable. We did however finally rent a golf cart! That is ideal, specifically for this area, and definitely if you've got kids. The golf cart gave us the freedom to go out to the monkey farm, go to playa coco and still go to our favourite spot on playa Ocotal. Father rooster on the beach in playa ocotal has the best nachos too. Lol.
I would say yes to this place again, now that I know about the golf carts. ($30 a day and yes you can work some magic to get it cheaper.) Playa Ocotal was worth it. The snorkelling is great and such a wide variety of fish.

Alexander,
Thank you for kind words about the place and Ocotal beach. Glad that you had good time, enjoyed walking, swimming, snorkeling and obviously communication with the community.
It is pity and I really surprised you have not been given access to laundry. It is part of the deal and Tito is suppose to give you the key. Thank you for feedback. Will address the issue, so it never happened again. Merry Christmas and all best wishes to your family.
Will be happy to see you again.
