Verdad Nicaragua Hotel & Retreat SAN JUAN DEL SUR, NICARAGUA
Verdad Nicaragua Hotel & Retreat was built with an eye on creating spaces that enable guests to take in the stunning beauty of this hillside property. Visitors can expect all the comfort, quality and excellence of a high-end resort, without the formality. As a small boutique hotel with just five casitas and two rooms, Verdad serves as an extraordinary home away from home on the untouched Southern Pacific coast. The hotel is mindful of its environmental impact,
providing carbon-filtered water and 100% solar- powered electricity. Verdad is nestled on a hillside overlooking the secluded beach of Escameca Grande on Nicaragua’s Emerald Coast, where guests can enjoy year-round surfing, shaded lounge chairs, hammocks and a beach bar/restaurant. The surrounding tropical forest is home to a
colourful array of flora, fauna and wildlife, while the hillside perch affords striking, expansive views across the valley to the open sea. Guests share this magical setting with howler monkeys, reptiles of all shapes and sizes, four species of sea turtles (and a turtle sanctuary), as well as a diverse population of
birds, creating an animal watchers’ paradise. The resort is about 20 minutes’ south of San Juan del Sur, a small port town and surfing hub, where guests can stroll along the streets, dine at a beachfront restaurant, sip beer at a local brewery, savour some gelato or just browse the shops. Guests enjoy 24-hour use of the pool and several
lounge areas with ample sun and shade, as well as an honour bar stocked with drinks and snacks. There’s also an open-air yoga and fitness studio with stunning views of the ocean and surrounding valley. Yoga mats, blocks and straps are provided, as well as kettlebells, TRX, jump ropes, medicine balls, Bosu and boxing gloves/pads. On-site massages are also on offer. Customised surfing packages are available, including lessons and board rental. Verdad is also available for buyouts — take over the entire hotel for friends and family and make it your own. Bedsheets are pure cotton, while luxury toiletries
— locally made with natural ingredients — are provided in the bathrooms. There’s also daily housekeeping, along with 24-hour front desk and concierge service.
