Villas de Palermo Hotel and Resort

On Nicaragua’s Pacific coast in San Juan del Sur, a short drive from surf, sunsets and wildlife. This family-friendly villas-and-hotel sits minutes from San Juan del Sur Beach and close to Refugio de Vida Silvestre La Flor, the Petroglyph site and Ostional Wildlife Reserve.

Tuscan-style resort with individually decorated villas and guestrooms (around 48–50 units) that feel like private escapes. Rooms feature full kitchens, private furnished patios, DVD players and flexible in-room workspaces. Expect poolside views and laid-back tropical design.

Full-service spa and poolside spa treatments, outdoor pool with a poolside bar, bicycles to rent, yoga area and a diving club. Complimentary shuttle to nearby beaches, concierge, babysitting (surcharge), laundry/valet and free parking. Wake up to sea-breeze mornings and slip straight into the pool.

About 3,000 sq ft of air‑conditioned event space with a conference center and meeting room. Complimentary wireless broadband and flexible meeting setups make this a smart pick for small conferences and events.

Terraza de Palermo Restaurant and Bar overlooks the tropical pool and Pacific sunsets, serving locally sourced, Nicaraguan, vegetarian and vegan options. There’s also a cafe/coffee shop, a bar/lounge and a poolside bar, plus limited room service and cooked-to-order breakfasts (for a fee).
