About this property

Beachfront Villa - Playa Coco (near San Juan del Sur)

The property is situated directly on the Pacific coast with a beautiful white sand beach called Playa Coco spanning nearly one mile directly in front of your Villa. Playa Coco is one of the most spectacular beaches in Nicaragua.

This property is exactly what you need to unwind on a secluded beach! Your spacious 2000+ square foot luxury Villa offers unparalleled proximity to a world class beach - and it is an END UNIT with the most natural light within this small development. Only local materials were used to produce this magnificent place, which gives it a unique feel that sets it apart from many other vacation homes in Nicaragua. The furniture is made from local wood and custom made. The unit comes fully furnished with all the amenities you could want, including a flat panel LCD TV (recently upgraded to 55"), Satellite TV, superior sound system, wireless internet connections, fully stocked kitchen and more!

The rooftop deck, master bedroom deck and living room patio are all facing the beach so you can enjoy the sun setting on the Pacific Ocean while you reflect on the natural beauty of Playa Coco. Local trees provide natural shade during the day and privacy. You will find that with the onsite pool and the ocean literally steps away from the front door, you won’t want to leave this tranquilo life!

If you choose to venture outside of your Villa, the most popular tourist destination in Nicaragua is just 25 minutes to the north - San Juan del Sur. In SJdS, you will find many shops, great restaurants, and a mix of locals and tourists enjoying the town. Closer to your Villa is The Wildlife Reserve La Flor where you can see Olive Ridley turtles. If you come at the right time, you can witness thousands of turtles laying eggs, or better yet - newly hatched turtles crawling back to the ocean! You will also find that some turtles use Playa Coco as their local grounds.

We were one of the first ones to own in Playa Coco and have steadily improved our casa throughout the years. We take meticulous care of our place and this will show during your stay. We come down once or twice a year and have also observed the steady improvement in the beautiful grounds in and around Playa Coco. Enjoy your stay!

Beautiful beach stay
Playa el Coco is a beautiful, serene spot. The condo was immaculate, large, comfortable, and it had a fully stocked kitchen for preparing meals. The air conditioning was very welcome! It was wonderful to be so close to the beach.

Great place to Be Alone and Zen Out
The pictures accurately represent the space. The house is nicely appointed and Playa coco is a beautiful beach with few visitors. Dave’s instructions on bringing in food are necessary as there simply isn’t anything nearby. We had brought in food expecting to have the housekeeper cook for us only to find out she was on vacation. The local restaurant was also closed, which meant we needed to drive 40ish mins to SJDS to eat. Annoying, but a small price to pay to enjoy the beautiful house and beaches. As noted in other reviews, the road often has animals, pedestrians, and motor bikes and is only paved 1/3 of the way and grated the remaining 2/3. If there’s no rain, a small sedan could do the trip. If it’s raining, I’d definitely want the 4x4 to navigate some of the roads. The internet is 5 d/1.5 u, so it’s just barely enough for zoom. If you need to work remotely, this probably isn’t the place for you as Claro and Tigo cell service is also kind of sketchy. The security roams the grounds periodically and were helpful with luggage, opening the gate, and even helping light the stove. We felt safe our entire stay. Note that no one speaks English. We got by with apps, but Spanish helps a lot around here. 5 star stay for the house, location and beach. No negative feedback, just some notes to ensure others have a great stay here too by knowing what to expect. The turtles at la Flor are a 10 min drive so no need to take a tour for this.

We had a great time with our family relaxing and enjoying the beautiful ocean. The family board games were a big hit with my daughter as well!

About the host

My wife Karen and I were recently married and we live in San Francisco, California. We have always wanted to own a home in a foreign country and now our dream has come true! We now visit Playa Coco every year with our young son who absolutely loves Nicaragua!

Why they chose this property

We love to travel and fell in love with Nicaragua while traveling down there in 2006. Playa Coco is one of the most spectacular beaches in Central America and we really enjoy that it's both close enough to town (San Juan del Sur) yet far enough such that it provides for a virtually private beach our home overlooks. The road from San Juan del Sur to Playa Coco will be completed soon and is a vast improvement from the dirt road that existed in 2006.

What makes this property unique

This beach, while spectacular, give you the feeling of a private beach. We've never seen this beach remotely crowded and some days we will only see a few people the entire day. So if you want a quiet getaway on a world class beach, this is your place. Our home is just minutes away from La Flor Reserve where the Olive-Ridley turtles come by the thousands to lay their eggs. Our home is beach front and you can walk to the ocean in literally seconds. You will also witness some of the most fantastic sunsets over the ocean on a daily basis. This is truly paradise!
