Hello Guillermo!Thanks for write. Sorry for what happened! Unfortunately, the cabin you booked at the last minute was already sold out when you made the reservation. Sometimes the system takes time to update and uncomfortable situations arise like the one that happened to you. We understand that you would not want to stay in the house we offered you since you reserved two cabins at the last minute. If one day you want to returnIt will be a pleasure to have you among our guests.

Don’t waste you time…
This place is not actually on the beach, to surf the boom of s about a 30-40 minute walk. The staff was awful with exception to their new lady I believe the manager. She was a breathe of fresh air. Wi-fi never worked and the power was out one of the 3 nights we were there. They had a generator but only turned it on for an hour so no fan and no air conditioning was an awful way to end. Also we never got our 3rd breakfast we pre paid for because the power was off, but they conveniently turned on the generator a few minutes after breakfast window was closed, so we paid for lunch. I would never stay there again. Definitely our worst experience in Nicaragua.

Good afternoon. We are sorry that your stay with us was not satisfactory.We have taken action regarding our staff and we are truly ashamed. Regarding the issue of electricity, it was bad luck that DISNORTE (the company that provides the service) failed us during your stay, we really did our best to provide you with all the services during your stay, unfortunately we were not successful!Receive a sincere apology on behalf of the Las Dunas Surf Resort Nicaragua Team,Cordially,Maylin MejiaLas Dunas Surf Resort Team

Not worth it, many better beaches and hotels
I was disappointed by this hotel. There was no formal check-in procedure, we were given keys to the room and that was it. As it's a hotel that is supposed to be about surfing I needed to know about the local beaches, transport, hiring, tides, and other recommendations. I was given none of these things. The closest beach isn't very nice and only has surf once a day. This place is very remote, there's no shops or restaurants in the vacinity. This is fine if you have your own transport, but we didn't, so we were essentially stuck at a hotel for 3 days instead of enjoying the surf. The on-site restaurant provides basic, uninspired food for relatively expensive prices, 30-40% above market rates. Surf board hire is US$20 per day, double what you pay in better surf spots like Playa Manderes. There's no reason to go here instead of other, better beaches. I booked for 3 nights, would have been happy to leave after the first.

Dear Alex, Thank you very much for your recent visit to our hotel and for your comments. We greatly regret that your experience with us was not satisfactory. Without a doubt, if you had notified us of your dissatisfaction from day one, of course we take action to try to meet your expectations. Unfortunately the wind conditions were not the best for the waves during your visit, it is worth mentioning that this area is beginning to be explored, which is one of its main attractions. As for the food, we would like to know what he ate? Since we have a varied and accessible menu, with always fresh and top quality products. We do not doubt that this an excellent place to surf, surely with your own vehicle or a rented motorcycle, could give you the opportunity to explore the area and enjoy the adventure offered by the Route of the 7 beaches. Please accept our apologies for not having lived up to your expectations, we hope to see you soon on your next visit to the area. Good day, good waves!
