Reviews & Ratings
What People Are Saying
Colorado Surf and Stay is a boutique operation run by Brazilian couple Bruno and Mariana who have created a home-away-from-home experience in Nicaragua's surf zone. The property stands out for its exceptional hospitality, with the couple personally attending to guests' needs and creating a genuine family atmosphere. Located in a gated community with a private beach, the house offers comfort and safety while being just a 4-minute bike ride to the surf. Bruno provides valuable local surf knowledge, guiding guests to different breaks including off-the-beaten-path spots for uncrowded waves. Both Bruno and Mariana are skilled surf photographers who capture memorable sessions. The house features a pool, ping-pong table, pool table, and air-conditioned rooms for comfortable post-surf relaxation. Fresh meals are prepared daily by local chef Francisca with help from Lucia, consistently praised for variety and quality. Bicycles with board racks make the beach commute easy. The location provides access to restaurants, markets, and a pharmacy nearby, plus bike trips to Iguana Farm. However, one reviewer found rooms small, food unsatisfying, and management unhelpful, rating it 1 star—a stark contrast to the otherwise glowing reviews. With only 11 reviews, the sample size is limited, but the overwhelming majority describe it as one of their best travel experiences.
