A well-designed complex of comfortable rustic pine cabins in true Nicaraguan architectural style. Casa Malinche set in the quiet community of El Remanso in only 15 min from San Juan. Casa Malinche, is a place to unplug (no WiFi).. It is our home away from home and we are delighted to share it with you when we are not there.

Casa Malinche is a place to relax and write or post your recent pictures. With Internet access and WIFI through all the premises, it allows you to stay in contact with family and friends , back home.
It is the perfect place for the selective nature minded traveller who loves adventure and sandy beaches away from crowds and mass resorts. Birds start visiting early in the morning - chocoyos, pijules, urracas... Little crabs, lizards and frogs may walk with you at night… A 5-minute walk down the hill will take you to the beach. El Remanso beach offers the best "learn to surf" waves. You can get lessons and rent boards right there. The beach is beautiful, white sands, turquoise water and really, really hot sun all day long. A couple of ranchos right on the beach offer cold beers and simple but delicious food (quesadillas, fish tacos, mmm!).
Sunsets are spectacular. A full moon setting down the bay is a sight to wonder. The night stars will have you looking at constellations you've heard about, but never found the time to discover. The sounds of frogs, wind and ocean waves will lull you into sleep.
We love food, wine and entertaining. Our kitchen is set up with all the basic necessities to cook and enjoy company. Gas stove/oven, fridge, microwave, espresso and regular coffee maker, pots and pans and a charcoal grill will help you improvise wonderful cooking adventures. A well-tended patch of fresh herbs right on the terrace (mint, oregano, culantro, basil, thyme and anise) may give you some inspiration. Eventually, when you feel the urge to plug in...just drive to San Juan!
