About this property

Casa Tortuga: Your Peaceful Coastal Hideaway at Playa El Coco

  • Wake up to the call of howler monkeys and the rhythmic song of the Pacific surf. Tucked away just 150 meters from the pristine sands of Playa el Coco—a short, 2-minute stroll through our private community—Casa Tortuga offers the ultimate escape into Nicaragua’s natural beauty. Whether you are seeking a family adventure or a serene retreat, this is your home away from home.

    ​Sustainable Comfort & Peace of Mind
    ​We believe in harmony with nature without sacrificing comfort. Casa Tortuga is uniquely equipped to ensure your stay is seamless:
    Space to Gather: Designed for groups of up to 10, our home offers a fully equipped kitchen and plenty of room to reconnect.
    Stay Cool: Two of our three bedrooms feature AC, while high-quality ceiling fans throughout the house capture the ocean breeze to keep you comfortable at all times.
    ​Reliable Power: Unlike many properties in the area, we feature a Solar Power System with battery backup. You can enjoy your vacation with peace of mind—and high-speed WiFi—even during local power outages.

    ​An Unmatched Nature Experience
    ​At Casa Tortuga, nature comes to you. Spend your afternoons in our traditional rocking chairs or hammocks on the shaded terrace, where parrots and howler monkeys are frequent visitors in the surrounding trees.
    ​The magic of the coast is right at your doorstep:
    ​Turtle Sightings: Between July and January, you may witness the miracle of sea turtles nesting or hatchlings making their way to the ocean right on Playa el Coco.
    ​Playa La Flor: Just a 5-minute drive away is one of the world’s most important turtle sanctuaries. During the "Arribadas," you can witness thousands of turtles arriving at once—a true bucket-list experience.

    ​​Perfectly Positioned & Surfer’s Paradise
    ​Experience the tranquility of a secluded beach while staying close to the action:
    ​Surf & Play at Your Doorstep: Playa el Coco is fantastic for surfing and bodyboarding, offering fun waves just a short stroll from the house.
    ​World-Class Surf Nearby: If you’re looking for professional surf lessons or board rentals, the famous breaks of Playa Remanso and Playa Hermosa are only about 15 km (a scenic 25-minute drive) away.
    ​Explore San Juan del Sur: The vibrant town center, with its eclectic restaurants and nightlife, is just 17 km away—the perfect distance for a day trip before returning to the peaceful stars and crashing waves of your private villa.
