Quite and relaxing

Warm but cool enough to be outside all day due to the ocean breeze.

Very disappointing

So much potential for a couple of getaway days at the beach only to be disappointed. My wife and I have lived in Latin America for several years. We have used VRBO in the US, Mexico and now Nicaragua. Playa Tesoro is isolated, you need a guide to find their place and it's best is you have a 4x4 to get in and out. We were prepared for that. What we were not prepared for was to find the casita in such filthy conditions. It had not been cleaned since the previous guests, 3 days closed up with garbage overflowing the kitchen garbage can. The little bathroom waste can, the one you use for your paper waste.... Well it"s probably never been cleaned. The young guy(Luis) at the property was sorry and hustled to get the place cleaned up but it was a sad start. I mentioned the property is isolated which was great until we came to find out that the restaurant doesn't always have food to prepare. Night 2 passed with no dinner. Learning point; take plenty of food with you. That said the beach was great, beautiful black sand, and the buggy boarding was a blast. We wanted a laid back getaway and that we got.

About the host

Hosted by John and Geoff Bramwell

Host profile image
Outdoor oriented brothers whom set off in 2004 to find a good surf break on a quality beach to build a nice surf shack. And thus avoid the North America January cold. After a furious search, we settled at this beach in Nicaragua and named it Playa Tesoro. After 14 years work, we have a best in country, fully private fresh water system. And an electrical system that works well with private ownership of all the equipment. In Canada, we have over 32 years as business partners in construction. Come see this awesome 3 kilometers of beach spread over 204 acres, in the friendly country of Nicaragua.

Why they chose this property

Playa Tesoro is a great swim beach with warm, shallow, salty water. You have 7 miles of beach all to yourself. All sand, no rocks, no garbage, no people, no logs, no rocks. Just turtles, birds, fish. And a few well built homes.

Nicaragua is a great country full of wonderful people. This is a very peaceful, secure, beautiful country. Leon city is the university town of Nicaragua with 11 universities, many language schools, good music and strong arts community. Also, the second oldest town in all the Americas behind Panama city, so there is amazing architecture. The people are warm, peaceful and kind. In summary, Leon is a safe, intelligent, artistic, friendly community that is welcoming and interesting. Leon state and area has a vast array of intriguing places to visit and enjoy on day trips as well.

What makes this property unique

Even in Nicaragua, this property is unique because it is nestled between the Pacific Ocean and a 24 mile fresh water river in the back. Playa Tesoro is the ultimate swim beach as it is all sand, gentle waves and warm water. The river is absolutely pristine, with absolutely no person on it. No garbage, no bottles, nothing but fish and birds. The beach is 7 miles long and we ride dirt bikes from one end to the other at sunset seeing nobody, just turtles. Yet, the second largest city in Nicaragua is a mere 45 minutes away.

Playa Tesoro is 45 minutes from the second largest city in Nicaragua, called Leon. Leon is a 500 year old architectural jewel in the rough. Leon has an amazing array of 400 year old mud/straw homes, 14 churches, 11 universities. Leon has a lively arts community. Our beach and beach accommodation is the best in Leon.
