The road to get to the property is a little bit difficult to drive up but we managed it fine in an ATV

Really cute guesthouse with cosy rooms, lovely staff, delicious breakfast and amazing views of Volcan Concepcion. We loved the pets Alpha, Osa & Ninja. Nolver & David were great and really helpful with all our questions and the kitchen and cleaning staff were lovely as well.

The view was exceptional. How can you beat sunset on Conception! Fabulous setting. Beautiful wildlife with howler monkeys doing an evening entertainment! So peaceful. We could cook our own meals as well which we loved.

Worth noting that house is a 10 min walk up a slightly rocky path. Felt completely safe at night but just a bit dark so we used our phone torches.

Absolutely gorgeous location. Tropical plants, monkey, birds and volcanos on your doorstep. Rooms were really clean and bed comfortable. The staff were all fab, very friendly and helpful - they helped us to book scooters, arrange guides for activities and taxi transfer to port. Would definitely stay here again if ever back in Ometepe.

An aircon would be perfect for a better sleep during hot nights.

David the Manager of the guesthouse was really nice and helpful and we felt welcomed very much also by the rest of the staff. The garden is a perfect relaxing spot with one of the best views of the island. Breakfast was delicious. Rooms are comfortable, spacious and very clean. We can highly recommend Ananda!

- The road to get to the hotel is very rocky and if you don't have a proper vehicle you can't access the hotel. - Breakfast a bit pricey

- Friendly staff - Good location - Quiet place

It is up an unpaved road which is quite uneven. It only takes 10mins to walk to the main road to go to cafes/restaurants but it feels further on the way back in the dark! Although being further away from the road brings its own benefits.

Set within tropical gardens with one of the best views of Volcán Concepcion. Our room was very spacious with a lounge and kitchen area and huge terrace. I don’t think the photos on the website did it justice! The rooms were very well appointed and clean. The staff were always helpful and very responsive (definitely helped to speak some Spanish though). Breakfasts were delicious and very nice to be able to eat them on your terrace. We liked the added touch of having a filtered water tank to save carrying heavy bottles of water to the property and the music speaker.

Electricity kept cutting out. One night we had none from 9pm until 7am which meant our phones or cameras hadn’t charged. The communal kitchen is not accessible from 7 to 11 as staff are there cooking breakfast, they are lovely and will move to allow you in but it’s not big enough for too many cooks. Outside of these times it’s really handy to have a fridge and kitchen ware. Lovely organic coffee, so the kitchen was a bonus.

Beautiful and peaceful. We read so much about the road in, it was actually fine. Yes it’s bumpy, but you can navigate this easily. We walked to Balgue in 10 mins. Lovely restaurants there. We walked to El Pita chocolate restaurant for breakfast and the wonderful view… this is about 1km. We then walked to Santa Cruz which is approximately 3km from Ananda’s. There were stalls here selling delicious food (don’t miss) and a decent size supermarket. Sit and enjoy the kite surfers here. Santa Domingo was about another 2Km. We didn’t mind walking but it was hot. Taxi ride to Ojo De Aqua was $30 return, Playa Mangoes was similar cost. Breakfast at Ananda’s was nice. There are plenty of places to get food nearby. Also we had a delivery from local pizzeria which was delicious! We completely chilled in Ananda’s.

Access road is rough but typical of the island

Beautiful location thoughtfully planned out with ample privacy.

Location, people who work there are together

Lots of pet animals around (no sleeping in for us) and breeze can create some door slamming/banging

We loved how much wildlife we could see right on the deck/property and how it was on the volcano itself. Views were quite nice

Wow what an amazing stay at Ananda guesthouse. Absolutely serene and beautiful surroundings. Rooms were clean and comfortable. The patio with the hammock was a big hit for us! All the staff were absolutely lovely. I hope to be back one day 😊

There was nothing to dislike. It was perfect.

Ananda was truly beautiful, the room had incredible views and was spotless. The staff were amazingly helpful and kind. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend a stay here.

The road in is crazy, especially at night, but it’s doable.

The scenery was beautiful, the breakfast was spectacular, the room was incredible, but most of all the staff was just exceptional. David in particular was so kind and generous and did his best to make sure we felt comfortable and supported.

It is a bit difficult to get to, but not an issue. The road is bumpy but it is not unsafe or very difficult if you have a moto or car. I found the drive worth the views!

I loved the view of the volcano and how peaceful it was not just in the morning but all throughout the day. We woke up to monkeys every morning while having our breakfast on the patio and enjoyed coming back to the hammocks in the afternoon. The bedroom was very comfortable and clean. We used the communal kitchen which was a big plus.

The location can be a little hard to reach but the staff organised taxis and a rental scooter

Beautiful rooms, surroundings, helpful staff and very comfortable.

I respect people who travel by moped, car, ATV or motorbike since there's quite a difficult road to get to Ananda. We didn't rent anything and enjoyed our time by using a taxi for exploring the island, but people were a bit surprised by our choice. Moreover, keep in mind that there are quite some Dutch tourists these days in Nicaragua; they will visit this place as well since it's a great place to stay. Nothing the accommodation can do anything about.

The breakfast options were lovely, the view on the volcano was amazing and I really enjoyed having our private terrace with a hammock and howler monkeys that visited the surrounding nature every day. Oh, and the stars on a not cloudy day, best I have ever seen so far! We have really enjoyed our week on the island, could easily have stayed a bit longer. Café Campestre was nearby, great place for dinner. All in all, it was better than we imagined, thank you!

The access road was rough. Rocky, rooty and difficult to navigate in any motor vehicle

The property was amazing - such a beautiful view of the volcano and the staff were so friendly and helpful!
