Jungle Style In Nicaragua
Want to go glamping in Nicaragua? This beautiful lodge is just minutes away from the historic city of Granada, but feels gloriously isolated. That may be because it's located on its own private island. Take a boat from the mainland and choose from two casitas, a treetop rancho, or a bungalow set in lush vegetation with stunning views of the lake and volcano. The property can be rented in its entirety or as individual units - please inquire for availability.
The little island is a world unto itself and includes its own swimming pool, yoga platform, massage facilities, and an intimate bar and restaurant. Furniture and accessories have been handcrafted by local artisans, and the property is staffed by locals, including the chef, who creates unique menus using the best locally-sourced ingredients, many of which come from the island’s gardens
LAKE NICARAGUA
The island is just minutes away from the bustling, historic city of Granada, which was named by Hernández de Córdoba after the ancient Spanish city of Granada.
It is known for its colonial-era architecture, and bears a resemblance to Antigua in Guatemala. Like Antigua, it sits in the shade of a volcano - in this case, Masaya, Mombacho and Ometepe Island. Unlike Antigua, however, it sits on a lake - Nicaragua.
Sites worth visiting are Parque Central and the private Mi Museo, with its collection of Pre-Columbian ceramics. Activities include hiking, fishing, water sports, horseback riding, dining, shopping and exploration.
