This is a beautiful oasis on the North part of the island of Ometepe. The property is a large piece of land with lots of pretty plants and trees, 2 friendly dogs, and some chickens. All throughout is thoughtfully crafted walkways and living spaces which are very well-kept. The dorm room felt super clean and the beds were comfortable. It is actually incredible how clean it is kept considering it is basically in the middle of nature. The ranch has plenty of hammocks and space to relax! The best part of this place is the couple that owns it, Daniella and Tony. They have a way of making everyone feel at home and bonding the guests staying there. It felt like we had our own little family for the week we stayed. They always made sure we had everything we needed from food and water to suggestions of what to do on the island. Daniella is an amazing cook and we enjoyed many delicious breakfasts of omelettes, fruits, homemade marmalade, etc. And Tony’s banana smoothies made me so happy! Everyone we met there ended up extending their stay, including us. I have never felt so comfortable anywhere I’ve stayed while traveling. This is a really special place where you can feel a little closer to home while being so far away.

We are in the Nicaraguan Ometepe Island, on the jungle slopes of the volcano Maderas 30km from the port town of Moyogalpa, between Santa Cruz and Balgue . El Zopilote is a unique place! The gardens are beautiful, and I loved learning about their oyster mushroom cultivation. i loved yoga, tours, and pizza night! The atmosphere was friendly and the food was fresh and delicious. Highly recommended!

Situated in Las Pilas, 17 km from Maderas Volcano, Rainbow Caravan Hostel features accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and a restaurant. The accommodation provides a shared kitchen and free WiFi throughout the property. The place was very clean and tidy, tranquil, and no noise at night which is rare in Nicaragua because there's always someone making some noise. The food was quality, homemade vegan goodness. Making a fire was cool and it has all the modern amenities like a fridge and cooking equipment so you can bring beer. Didn't have any bugs unlike some of the other hostels i stayed in on Ometepe. It's quite a good location equidistance between the two towns and near the start of Volcan Concepción. I recommend renting an ATV rather than a scooter at the port and picking it up in Ometepe, don't trust the people on the San Jorge side. The hostel also offers scooter rental although I picked mine up at port. Very photogenic hostel and peaceful.

Learned this was one of the original hostels on Ometepe. Breakfasts and dinners were freshly prepared with local ingredients. Their dogs and cats were very nice to spend time with.

I got here by accident, after being traumatised by seeing a scorpion in the bed of another place I was about to check in prior.
Super happy I got to this place, it deserves 10 ++! The dorm for 25 dollars was an absolute amazing experience, you could hear the waves, it felt like you were on a cruiseship! Dorm is spacious and very comfortable.the bunk beds were designed in a very practical way that gives you a lot of comfort.you have dedicated space and locker in the bed itself for extra stuff to put in there. The room is big, airy, high ceilings, lots of natural light. The building is made of concrete walls and windows, which prevents scorpions from coming in like the wooden houses would.
Not sure if the shower had hot water or I didn't know how to turn it on.
There are events every night. People at the restaurant and reception very friendly and polite.I wish they had more Nicaraguan food and less international mixes, but you can always go find places to eat outside. At night it is pitch dark on the road, so make sure you are accompanied/have a flash on you.

Great location close to everything we wanted to do in Ometope - great beach just a 20 second walk away, visit el pital and the nearby hostels which was walkable, and a few tiendas and shops nearby. Room was very cool and also had two fans. Good price and nice staff.
The hostel has a great location and is very lively. Moreover the staff was very helpful and gave nice recommendations in terms of activity. The share spaces were ok too and very welcoming. The breakfast were generous and changed a bit of the usual breakfasts we had elsewhere in Nicaragua.
The probably best hostel I've been to. Nice location, relaxing environment, delicious breakfast and super lovely hosts. Daniela's and Tony's help was just outstanding. It felt like home. Highly recommended place to stay! :)
Danilo is an extremly helpfull and likeable host. We enjoyed our stay at this Hostel a lot. The kitchen is well equipped and you can cook on your own to safe some money. Danilo will provide you with infos and tipps for activities on the island and you can as well rent a scooter or book a volcano-tour directly with him, which is super comfortable.
such a lovely family owned hostel. a cute oasis in the middle of town. lovely garden and chill area. very clean and safe. the family even have us a lift home from town one evening. we thought that was very kind.
The host of the hostel was helpfull and super nice. Big rooms with an amazing view on the volcano. Functional kitchen and an great location. Highly recommended.
One of the best Hostel/Hotel I've been to so far! The owners are super nice and helped us immensely with organizing transportation. Highly recommend :)
Nice and helpful staff. They even offered me medicine when I became ill. Cheap and safe rentals available. Especially nice was that I could store some of my luggage there for one night to do a tour around the island.
