Myself and a group of seven friends came to Finca del Mar in July. We rented Los Pelicanos and the neighboring house, Casa Tranquila. Both houses were beautiful and very nice, and having the 2 neighboring houses made it feel like we had our own little village, especially since Pelicanos was two separate buildings, with a large outdoor table where we played board games every night. The homes in Finca del Mar would be nice by U.S. standards and they are quite luxurious compared to most of what you find in Nicaragua. These houses are just a 2 minute walk from Los Cardones along a shaded stone path where you might see the occasional passing Iguana. Los Cadones is an Eco Surf Lodge serving amazing food morning, noon, and night. The beach here is very beautiful and there are hardly any people on it. The busiest day at the beach had only about dozen people. But one of the best parts of any stay in Finca del Mar is dealing with Janelle, the property manager. She is incredibly attentive and friendly and always a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend a visit to Finca del Mar and the Los Cardones Surf Lodge.
