Eco retreat with million dollar views!

Finca del Sol is a boutique accommodation option a short walk from the main part of town in Sasnta Cruz. The property is spacious and the huts are well spaced out throughout the property. We were impressed by the size of the individual huts. It is an eco retreat so the bathrooms have composting toilets and the property mainly runs on solar power. We had a few electricity outages while we were there. There is wifi on the property but only at the communal hut, which is a bit removed from the accommodation. It’s not the most convenient if you are a remote worker, however it’s perfect for people wishing to disconnect. At night you can see so many stars in the sky and the property has gorgeous views out to Volcan Concepcion. Breakfast is included in the room rate and the breakfast includes eggs, bread, fruit salad and coffee. Each room has its own water filtration system. They provide alcohol gel for guests to use.…

underwhelming

I was quite disappointed with this accommodation. We were greeted by someone that spoke no english which was quite uneasy seeing as how we just arrived on the island at 6pm (sunset) and wanted to familiarize ourselves with the space. Instead as the sun went down, we were greeted by a guy with a flashlight which seemed to be telling us he was the night guard and told us to yell his name if we heard anything. He was very friendly and I could tell had a great heart, but because there were no curtains in our room, we felt uneasy that anyone, including the guard that was patrolling around the property often, could be looking inside at all times. We did not feel like we had any privacy. We got into our room and read the booklet that was in english which would have been helpful if it was accurate; however when we woke up in the morning to go to the breakfast area/reception, there was no-one but a barking dog on a leash. Eventually someone came in from the fields and told us there is no breakfast available. With the management currently, I would not recommend this space.…

Response from Finca D, Owner at Hotel Finca del Sol

Responded Jun. 14, 2020

Hello there, We are very sorry to hear about your experience. While this is not the normal experience from our other guests (we have had great reviews so far and this has nothing to do with the current management), we can however understand your sentiment and appreciate your honest feedback. Just so you are aware, we ask all our guests to arrive early and within the check-in times of 12-2 pm as this makes for a better experience overall and also respects the working conditions of our staff. The Island gets very dark after sunset and can be overwhelming to new visitors who don't take our check-in times seriously. We are also a fully local facility and are trying to support the local economy this way which as you may be aware has been very challenging due to political conditions. The people on the Island are beautiful and very kind hearted. The culture combined with the landscape of the island offers a very unique experience. We are trying to create an authentic getaway within nature, while contributing to the environment as well as the local economy and hence the conditions are not exactly similar to first world. While we understand that your expectations were not met and are sorry for this, we would also request you to be kind & considerate in your evaluation of local situations (Especially while traveling to Central and Latin America) - please be patient & take your time to get familiar with your surroundings - the experience will be a lot more positive. Sincerely The Finca Del Sol Team

Enjoy of nature

Best is the surrounding and nature around this cottage. Many animals, birds, butterflies. One night no electricity, no fan functioning. No wifi, it is only in reception. Overprized. But information received and discussions with the lady boss (Lucy) were fruitful.

Really great experience

Finca del sol has a new owner since October 2018 and Lucie who manage the place now is a star. They only have three bungalows and a large property and garden so you will feel like you have a lot of space. There are goats and sheep strolling around and a lot of dogs who can bark quite a bit. So you shouldn’t be afraid of dogs :-). We visited during the really hot period and the bungalows tend to be very hot but they have fans to help you cool off. The place runs on solar energy and you have your own water purifier in the room which makes you feel of the grid and close to nature. And watching the sunset from your porch with the volcano in the background is truly amazing. The breakfast is not included but for 6 dollars you get a really great meal.

Fabulous hospitality and wonderful, off the beaten track eco-lodges.

It's a bit of a trek to get to Ometepe Island, but Finca Del Sol was totally worth it! I loved my bungalow with private hammock and stunning volcano view, but was made to feel immediately at home with Sheri's incredible hospitality. She went out of her way to ensure I had the food supplies I would need for my volcano climb, and arranged the massage I needed afterward. Wonderful place to stay.
