Self-Catering Accommodations in Balgue

The property offers an incredible sunset view right from its backyard—truly a highlight of the stay. The owner is warm, accommodating, and genuinely helpful. He arranged a fantastic taxi driver (Delsi Moto) for a full-day island tour, which turned out to be a great experience. Highly recommended.

Private, peaceful spot in Balgue, only a few steps away from the water’s edge. Loved waking up in the morning and being able to look straight out onto the lake. Would highly recommend this place!

Nice location and facilities. Wish there were screens on the windows to prevent insects from entering. I really enjoyed my stay though, and the host is really nice and helpful.

Huge property, very private with gorgeous views. The staff were so kind and helpful - they arranged our cars to/from omtempe and helped us rent ATVs. There is a farm on the property and they use the food from there at the restaurant, the food was fantastic! There are also several hiking trails off the property and we got great massages. Also, it is clear Selvistas is very invested in the local community and economy. Everything seems to be done with sustainability and locals in mind. Pictures don’t do it justice. Highly highly recommend!

We loved the rustic feeling of the cabaña, which was airy with probably one of the most comfortable beds we had on our trip. The kitchen is simple but has everything you need to feel at home and be able to cook if you wish. There are places nearby to buy supplies if you do want to cook for yourself. And a comedor just across the road. The owners are lovely and very open to making suggestions. The garden is open and relaxing. There were kids and chickens nearby and not at all an issue for us. We walked a lot to see the lake and a nearby chocolate factory.

We absolutely loved our stay here. The location was perfect, just steps from the beach and within walking distance of the local market, making it easy to explore the island without needing transportation. The property felt very safe and secure, and the hospitality was outstanding. Don Hector was an incredible host who regularly checked in with us and was always available whenever we needed anything. He went above and beyond to make sure our stay was comfortable. If you're looking for an affordable place to stay on Ometepe with a great location and a host who genuinely cares about his guests, we would definitely recommend staying here.

Finca Ometepe was the highlight of our visit to Isla Ometepe! We enjoyed the warm hospitality of our hosts, Hanna and Hakan, who welcomed us to their home, shared their food, showed us around the farm and made us feel at home!. It was a very special experience for all of us, we had never experienced something similar on our travels before. We picked organic greens for salad together, participated in milking the goats, searching for eggs, processing Cacao and Cafe grown on the farm, enjoyed making our own pizza in their clay oven, and baking the most delicious brownies from their cacao (and recipe!). The farm is beautiful and relaxed, the casita has comfortable beds, a well equipped kitchen and spacious outdoor dining area with hammocks to relax in. Breakfasts where homemade, yummy and varied, and on top of all of these, hauler monkeys visited nearby every morning!

The suroundings and views are really beauriful. It also has a great location where you can reach all the main attractions and restaurants on a scooter. There is no AC but there are fans which were enough. We also appreciated the mosquito nets in all windows and doors as well as above the bed.

Great staff great location. Great price great luxury great everything.

We were in Nicaragua for 2 weeks and stayed at Rosas Lake Cabins for 3 nights. It’s on the water, a short distance by bike to all the island has to offer.

Amazing place! Our stay was incredible. We love the bed. Highly recommended

The family is amazing, great place, nice room and delicious breakfast!
