Perfect place to relax and get healthy as there is a SPA on premise. Yoga classes, massages and really good and healthy food are available. This combined with friendly staff and beautifull views over the bay and ocean

“Lovely relaxing place”

Friendly staff, great breakfast, location was good. My daughter liked that there was a small pool and some toys. Mosquitos were not really an issue for us in our eco hut (which I was worried about). Lots of great spaces to relax.

“nice stay for a good price”

the location is great, the food was super rasta and the staff was adorable. Breakfast is included and nice.

The location was good with lots of seating and views out to the bay. Shared area had a nice vibe. The included breakfast was really nice and the fresh drinks as well.

Nice restaurant and very helpful staff.

“Good value charming place”

Charming hotel. Nice staff good location nice hang out area. Make sure you bring mozzie repellent!

“Value beach town lodging.”

Great restaurant, overlooking the estuary. Non guests make it a dining destination with always fresh ingredients & choices with the included breakfasts. Location is the quiet part of Las Penitas also lots of fauna & trees on the property.

“Excellent time there!”

The breakfast was nice, there was a lot of different choices. The hotel is beautiful, 5 min walk from the surf beach. Staff was very very friendly

“An absolute find! Such a lovely friendly and welcoming hostel/hotel. Super food, just all really good”

Super clean, amazing staff…great location(you can get better, but this was perfect) amazing grilled food on the Friday night…and really cheap! Huge vegetarian and vegan menus too…

Really cute bungalows, nice stuff, warm welcoming and great yoga:)

“If you’re looking for a place to rejuvenate, enjoy amazing food, and feel truly cared for, I couldn’t recommend La Barca”

What truly stood out was the exceptional care and warmth of the staff. Unfortunately, I fell ill during my trip (completely unrelated to the hotel), but as a solo traveler, I was deeply touched by the genuine support and kindness I received from the team. Special thanks to Sandrine and Mariana, who run the hotel with so much love and dedication. Their care made me feel surrounded by a sense of family, even when I was far from home.

“What a disappointment”

At least the food in the restaurant was good

“Amazing place full of great energy”

I love the location of Barca de Oro. It’s one of the best spots on the pacific coast in Nicaragua. Sandrine and her family are excepcionally welcoming and make you feel at home. Sandrine was very helpful and nice to some of my friends who got sick. I also recommend trying yoga classes - the energy is very unique.

“Perfect”

Relaxed ambience

“Perfect!”

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Hostal La Barca de Oro, and it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm smiles and genuine hospitality from the staff, who went above and beyond to ensure my stay was perfect. The ambiance of the hostal was truly charming, with beautifully decorated spaces that exuded a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. The common areas were cozy and inviting, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploration. The location of Hostal La Barca de Oro is another highlight. Nestled in a tranquil neighborhood, it offers a peaceful retreat while still being conveniently close to key attractions and vibrant local spots. I appreciated the easy access to the beach and nearby cafes and restaurants, making it an ideal base for my adventures. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed, providing a restful environment for a good night’s sleep. Each morning, I looked forward to the delicious breakfast, featuring fresh, local ingredients that gave me a delightful start to my day. What truly set this hostal apart was the exceptional service. The staff were not only friendly but also incredibly knowledgeable about the area, offering fantastic recommendations and always ready to assist with any needs. In summary, my stay at Hostal La Barca de Oro was nothing short of wonderful. I highly recommend this hostal to anyone seeking a memorable and enjoyable experience. I can’t wait to return on my next visit!
