The hotel has beautiful views, wonderful staff (Tom and Marvin), and great food. It would be nice if hot water was available for showering. All of the water was salty as well. They didn’t have any blowdryers. Understood it is a hostel but for the higher cost of a private room, they should carry a few cheap ones at the front desk to borrow for guests of private rooms in case they need. A nice hostel I stayed at in at Lake Atitlan did this. The rooms on the rooftop get noisy if it’s windy. Minimal updates to the outdated fixtures can go a long way.

This place is awesome. The staff are super friendly, the food is great, the pool and the deck are all Instagram worthy, and there's a path straight down to the beach that takes 10 min to walk(200ft of elevation I'd guess) They'll set up surf lessons, a massage, and are very helpful. The only detractors I can think of are that it's a little remote, and the water in the showers is a bit hard/salty. You won't regret staying here, the only problem is it'll make all the other places you stay pale in comparison.

Pros: This is one of the best places to stay near Playa Maderas. The sunset views from the main area are out of this world and worth the stay alone. Great cocktails and Happy Hour deals. Carol and Jason were awesome. Close to the beach. Juan Carlos at the Rebelde Surf School nearby is one of the best surf instructors in the area, he taught me a lot. Great place to party if that's the vacation you're looking for. Cons: very young and touristy environment. The food is good, it's just mostly burgers and pasta, which isn't really what I was looking for coming to Nicaragua. A lizard came out of my pillow case. Birds woke me up every day around 5am knocking on the glass windows, trying to get in. The ladies in the kitchen/bar area looked unhappy and seemed annoyed when we ordered breakfast - it was a little weird. One evening I asked the man who was working the reception night shift if he could make a quick call (my Spanish wasn't good enough to do so myself) to a place nearby to check on 2 friends to make sure they were ok and see if they needed a taxi back to Hush. He made it very clear it wasn't his problem and didn't care about the guests safety, which was a little disappointing.

Great property, food is really good, it’s a walk to the beach. I only wish there was fresh water to shower in. Other than that we stay there when ever we go to San Juan del Sur…best property on Maderas beach!

This place is a gem, super chill, great food, amazing staff. It is a bit rustic so you have to be okay with little hot water and no A/C, neither are really needed. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained. This will be a staple for future visits…

Terrible experience; still waiting for refund
Specifically upgraded to room with AC. AC did not work for entire trip. Water did not flow in our room so no flushing or showers. We were offered no changes or refund until we contacted hotels.com. 4 weeks later and I am still waiting for a partial refund. Customer service is terrible.

For starters, this place is meant for caucasians it seems. Perhaps if they would have cared for us like they did with blonde folks I wouldn’t be saying it. It appears as if the humble workers were told who were their priority. The view is spectacular but it comes with a harsh price. Not so much monetary but commodity. Important to point out, they don’t really have parking so you can’t come here with a rented vehicle. the little space they have for parking is more like a death trap. I rented the top suite and though it is a very nice place, you can’t really enjoy it. The A.C. Unit did not work and since it is all glass the sun turns the suite into a sauna. Imagine after enjoying the beach wanting to cool off in a sauna. Not cool. The food is really good but the menu didn’t have shrimp nor lobster and many other Nicaraguan delicacies. The restaurant area is a nice hang out but if you order your food be ready to wait over an hour, even if there aren’t much people there. We noticed when we order drinks, we wouldn’t get them right away, a blonde lady would ask for a drink, she would be taken care of before us which was total horse dropping! By the way, I got a rash for using the pool. Me and a my friend. The food and drinks are good but you won’t feel like you are in Nicaragua as the menu is really not a nica menu. We left Hush and San Juan del sur altogether to a better place where we were treated like royalty.

My husband and I loved the quietness of this place. We found what we are looking for; Loneliness, silence, stillness and natural beauty. The only thing we didn't like was the rural road, which is the only way to get there.

The view alone makes it the best place in Playa Maderas. However, the food was also excellent. We didn't expect a 2-star Michelin chef! Very friendly staff also a plus. This hotel exceeded our expectations!
