About this property

Enjoy Central District Colonial House 'La Gran Sultana' + pool

Granada city, once known as “La Gran Sultana” because of its beauty and location on the lake, is just the right spot for “Casa La Gran Sultana”. This home is located 2 blocks from the Parque Central and is walking distance from popular restaurants, shops and museums. The home was totally rebuilt in 2002, maintaining the colonial style. In august 2011, a pool was added into the patio of the house and integrated into the fountain that was previously installed. The result is just great! The garden has been rebuilt completely.

Casa La Gran Sultana is definitely “GRAND”. From the street, whenever you open one of the 2 antique double door, you get first to a huge “saguan” with a first set of rocking chairs. This room is used to receive people from outside or take the fresh air coming from the lake at sunset.
Once the door is closed, the noise from the street recedes and you get into a wide 3 fold corridor around the garden.
Note: one of the 2 doors to the street provides a confortable access & Parking for a 4x4 or van.
The main corridor which brings you to the center of the house is equipped with additional seating facing the pool and hammocks between the exotic wooden pilars. The garden is full of tropical plants and a magnificent mango tree provides a good shadow. At 6am in the morning, whenever the city awakes and the sun appears this is the place to be, as the birds (including humming birds) are flying over to drink.
The left side corridor is equipped with the internet and TV set, the right one hosts the main diner table.
The kitchen is located at the center of the home between the two outer gardens. It is spacious and has everything you need to prepare a meal or just a simple snack.
A room is located on the main floor with an exit on the patio. A bathroom is on the back of the room. A dormitory bedroom is located in the back garden area with 3 to 4 beds.
Upstairs on the balcony the view is spectacular on the roofs of the surrounding houses. The two large bedrooms open onto the patio. The master bedroom has a private bath, king bed and large closet. The second upstairs room has a private bath, one full bed and a twin bed. The antique wood staircase and wood floors are not only beautiful but will take you back in time when things were a bit simpler.
4 bedrooms have aircon.
Important: There is a water tank at the back of the house to ensure a smooth in-house water-supply.

Dream home
This home was absolutely wonderful! It was centrally located and had all the amenities we could ask for. Great kitchen to cook our meals in with a family, the pool was a perfect place to cool off and have have a drink The bedrooms were clean and very comfortable. The house keeper was and angel and the house manager was externally helpful kind and caring and went above and beyond. We are already planing our trip back for next year.

Great Place, Bad owner
I love Granada and have been many times. The location was great. But communication problems with the owner, and other issues ruined it. I booked a home that slept 15 for 6 people, and there was charged a chunk of cash for extra guest. When I objected before reserving it, the lady said it was beyond her control and would return half of it when I got there. She refused to do so, and kept it. She sent me a number to contact the house manager, but it was blocked by the web site and she didnt respond when I asked he to get me a number. The water was shut off one day, and it took several hours to get it back on with no communication. They have a chair that was broken in the past. When we moved it, the arm came off and they wanted to keep part of my deposit to pay for the damages. It felt like a set up. I wonder how many guests paid for the same damage. I will travel to Granada again and rent from VRBO. But NEVER form this owner again. Avoid.

We missed seeing Nicaragua, but the owner of the property is great!
We were unable to visit Nicaragua with our family this summer due to the civil unrest. However, we are so grateful for this property owner. They were extremely helpful and honest with us about the situation in their country. We cannot wait to visit this wonderful country, and we will definitely rent from this property owner again. Thank you for your amazing kindness and honesty. We hope to rent from you again soon!

Great location
We were a family of 10 (ages 10 - 75) staying at Casa Grand Sultana for 4 days. It was spacious and accomodated our large group easily. Great location - a short walk from the central square, restaurants etc. A lovely property in a beautiful town.

About the host

Hosted by Laurent Cremer

Host profile image
I am French. Back in 1985, I spent 18 months in Nicaragua, working to develop alternative energy sourcing in Ometepe, the main island in the Nicaragua lake. In 1988 I married a Granada young lady, and 5 children came. Since then we come back whenever we can.

Why they chose this property

If you are looking for an authentic place, provided you are ready to look and listen, Granada is the place to stay.
Experience the rocking chair magic time on the sidewalk at sunset. Rest at home in a hammock.
Activities to do there: Go to market at sunrise, go to the barber 'Agustin' close by Gonper Library: a unique experience. Many daytrips around the city. Trip to Ometepe island is a must, alternatively the isletas, close by Granada

What makes this property unique

Go to the ocean. Trek or experience a canopy tour in a coffee farm in the Montbacho volcano just outside the city . Enjoy a drink at 'Casa de los 3 mundos'.
