Holiday rentals with a kayak in Rivas

Karina’s place is a great place to get away. We’ve been there multiple times and love it. Steps from the beach. The beach is amazing here. Close to restaurants and surfing if that’s what you like. The house is well stocked and clean. Karina communicates well and responds quickly. Would recommend Karina’s place.

This place is an absolute gem! If you're looking for a peaceful escape and a genuinely good time, this is the spot. Carolina is a fantastic host—thoughtful, responsive, and incredibly welcoming. Her amazing team is always available and quick to respond to any needs, which made us feel completely at ease. Most importantly, we felt safe and cared for the entire time. Skip the crowded hotels and lodges around San Juan—this is where you want to be. We'll be coming back every chance we get!

Beautiful spot- steps from the beach which is such a bonus traveling with kids. The view from each balcony was so nice. The small private pool was perfect too. I was in the master bedroom and the a/c worked great at night. We brought our paddle boards and the bay was a perfect spot for that. We saw a sea turtle! Our host was very communicative and accommodating. The beach bar/restaurantwas very disappointing. The first day they didn’t have fruit so no smoothies or blended drinks. The second day all they had available was beer and shots. So bring your own drink and food so you don’t get stuck without! We were a little disappointed that the beautiful sliding patio doors didn’t have a screen so we couldn’t keep them open for an ocean breeze (flys and mosquitos). We had a wonderful time and will definitly come back!

We had a great time at Villa Lorito!! Some drawbacks included: The kitchen had some functionality issues, but we were still able to cook without much trouble. I’m confident this is something that can be quickly addressed. Additionally, while parking was available, it was not directly at the property but within walking distance. Though manageable, it felt a bit far, especially when carrying luggage or groceries. Overall, our stay was enjoyable, and we appreciated the villa's charm and amenities.

Honestly, one of the most peaceful and beautiful places I have ever stayed. We watched a horse and her baby walk the beach in front of us, picked mangos off the ground, and jumped into the lake all day. All around wonderful experience. Thank you David, Rebecca, and Team! We will be back.

Our stay at this beachfront rental was absolutely perfect from start to finish. The location couldn’t be better—just steps from a quiet, clean beach with soft sand and gentle waves. The neighborhood felt incredibly safe and peaceful, which made our trip even more relaxing. We loved taking evening walks along the shore and watching the sunset from the private deck. The home itself was spotless, secure, and clearly well-cared for. The smart lock entry gave us peace of mind, and we appreciated the motion lights and gated access. Inside, the décor was airy and coastal-chic, with plenty of space for our family of four. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals, and the beach towels was a thoughtful bonus. Communication with the host was easy and professional—she checked in with us and shared local tips that made our stay even more enjoyable. We felt truly at home, and most importantly, completely safe and comfortable the entire time.

We loved the house , it's right on the beach. walkable to almost any bar/restaurant around. thank you Karina for everything.

We really enjoyed staying here for a nice weekend getaway from the main land. The accommodations are right off the beach so you can fall asleep or awake to the sounds of the waves. The garden is beautiful and there are friendly chickens and dogs on the property. The guests were amazing and very responsive. They provided kayaks so we could enjoy the sunset on the lake. I would definitely stay again when I’m Ometepe. Also they have solar power so when the power went out on the island, I was still able to use the WiFi and a fan to cool off.
