Or travel here was far from a vacation. We had many stressful activities and obligations that no one should have to deal with.
From the moment we checked it we were instantly removed from our world. The atmosphere, building amenities, the owners and the staff were the best we have stayed with in Central America. A massage, a bottle of wine, cheese, snacks were all the best. The animals on side were very very friendly and the pool very clean and relaxing.
Needless to say we will be staying here again.

Excellent place
Nayal Lodge was great. The food was excellent--great portions, flavorful, and fresh ingredients.
My room was very well designed. AC and wifi worked great. The pool area was very relaxing and well maintained. The Lodge is walking distance to the beach.
The service was exceptional--everyone was friendly and helpful.

I couldn't have been happier here. Everyone was extremely friendly and accommodating. There is a bar and restaurant that actually stay open until the stated closing hours. The food is great, the drinks are great, the pool is perfect. And there are some vintage wines if you ask nicely. Wish I could have stayed for a couple of weeks. Thanks!

This was the perfect spot to relax for the few days we were staying. Clean, comfortable, and beautiful grounds. The owners were the best hosts Ive been around since my time in Nicaragua. If you want the best experience and food in Las Penitas this is where you want to stay.

A perfect and charming getaway!
We just arrived home from a several day stay at the Nayal Lodge are ready to go back! The owners and staff were incredibly friendly and more than accommodating with our young toddler. The food is superb and the pool is very relaxing. The grounds are beautiful and lush with greenery with several fruit trees throughout, and the location can't be beat! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this charming little boutique hotel for the perfect getaway in Nicaragua!

The hosts were awesome, they provided bikes for free which were the highlight of the trip for my wife and I. We had breakfast and dinner here. The homemade bread is awesome! The paella was one of the finest we have had. I highly recommend Hotel Nayal and Nicaragua.

Best Nica Bargain
The Nayal Lodge was the great bargain of our Nicaragua trip. The hosts, Catalina and Jose, have designed and built a wonderful and unique facility. The upper units have 2 floors & a small balcony with an ocean view. They will arrange tours, massages ($20!) and advise on local restaurants though they serve great breakfasts and special lite dinners themselves. Catalina bakes her own bread, buns etc & everything from the kitchen is muy deliciosa! There is a common open air deck area that is upstairs from the dining area with hammocks and couches for hanging out. Spent good siesta time there. They also serve cervesa and make a great mojito. The beach is about a 5 minute walk but there is about 10 kilometers of sand once you get there. Finally Luna & Kiro the puppies are there as well to supply furry entertainment and hound dog howls from Kiro when he is 'guarding' . We spent lots more on lesser places and as much on dumps. Don't pass on Nayal Lodge and enjoy the new pool later in 2018 or 2019.
