The best view of the volcano for sunset! It's always in clouds in the morning so it's the nicest view considering the sun is shining on it in the evenings. Advisable to have scooter to move around because there is nothing close. We took a tuktuk but you have to call one every time you want to go somewhere. Owner is helpful and will call you one if you need. Kitchen good enough for cooking. Nice place to do yoga with a view!

It’s a bit aside from the port city Moyogalpa, so it’s very calm and almost no cars and people here, but still easy to reach by foot from the Centre (15 min walk). It has breakfast included and it’s home cooked food by the family. My room was very spacious, with 1 double and 1 single bed. They had outlets outside and inside, so i could work online here. Ask for both WiFi passwords! The host family was very nice and always tried to help, like when I needed a dentist they found a number. They don’t speak English (as most locals here) but with my broken Spanish and google translate we always understood each other. You can also ask them about the laundry option. Thanks for hosting me!

My bank applies unreasonable charges to ATM withdrawals so I specifically choose hostels that accept card payments. Contrary to all HTV online profiles (including this one), they would only take cash and I really didn't want to spend my limited time in Ometepe writing to Booking to get a refund on account of false advertising. However, that means that I also have to review this hostel as though I paid 12 and not 9 USD per night because that is how much I ended up spending. For that money, I could've gotten a place with a pool, bar and other amenities, none of which are available at HTV. Still, on its own merit, the hostel was nice, clean, comfortable, with decent kitchen, good wi-fi (though, sadly, not reaching the garden that would be perfect for remote work), and unlimited filtered water supply. The dorms are excessively hot but otherwise OK.
Set in Moyogalpa, Casa de Gio offers free WiFi and units fitted with a kitchenette and seating area. Some units have a dining area and/or a patio.

We planned to stay three days but liked it so much that we decided to spend a whole week there. The location is perfect to explore the island. Everything is cleaned, the kitchen well equipped, the garden offers shade and you can wash your clothes for a fair price. The hosts are very friendly and helpful in every situation. Would recommend :)

Mountain when you like. We did a motorcycle tour. Renting one or a scooter is very affordable and the scenery is very nice. Very great food at the lakefront at Julia’s, almost opposite of ecolodge chiponge
The Italian restaurant in the village on the walking street, without traffic, was great too , especially the pizza

We arrived at the end of the busy season (April 1st) which was nice, but it was hot, water had dried up, and many of the "tours" were not worth the time or money.
The people were great! The food was awesome! And we loved exploring the island on our scooter.
Definitely recommend Cafe Campestre! The pasta was OUTSTANDING and the people were fantastic.
We didn't get a good-vibe from Chocolate Paradise - walked in - many people - nobody acknowledged our existence - so we left

We loved Moyogalpa. It's really colourful. Some people told us not to stay at the port town but we found it to be awesome, it's cool to have a wonder round day and night and the people are so friendly.

This is a really lovely little town by the port.
This is a really lovely little town by the port. No fuss and in low season when we visited not too touristy. The volcano hike is really tough as it’s constant ascent without respite but very rewarding. Also renting scooters and exploring the island is easy and highly recommended.

Moyogalpa is a nice little town but know that most things you want to do are oh the southern part of the island. It’s a bus/4x4/scooter ride (45 minutes probably) but very quaint with everything you need.
Jean at El Picante restaurant is very amiable and pleasant. The food is good.
Going down to El Peru to kayak the Rio Istián was the highlight of the island.
Had the best stay here. The dorm is super comfortable, spacious and clean. I loved how the room gets natural light, so relaxing. The bathroom is in great condition and always clean. Rich and tasty breakfast, one of the best I've had in South/Central America. The common area and the hammocks are perfect for relaxing. The hostel is located near a quiet street so you won't be hearing all the noise from the tuktuks and motorbikes. The family who owns the place is very sweet and nice, they will help you with everything you need.
The owners were welcoming and accommodating and helpful. The place had everything we needed and the kitchen was fully equipped and is only shared with one other room, which was unoccupied during our stay. The house is located right in the middle of a local neighbourhood just outside Moyogalpa so you get to experience local life away from the busy town, but only in walking distance of shops, restaurants and the port. We enjoyed our stay and would stay again in the future if in the area.
Beautifully located hostel on the country side of Moyogalpa with lots of space to hangout, especially the balcony offers (on sunny days) an amazing view of volcan concepcion. The host was really helpful in terms of organizing our motor bike rental and the volcano hike (which we really recommend doing!) as well as our transport options for the onward travels. The dogs and cat are cute!
The hotel area is really nice. The rooms are inside houses/huts and are quite new. You have a great vulcano view. The shower is good, the rooms are clean and the beds are comfy. The staff is nice and also helped us with organizing a scooter rental for us (with a company that did not try to pull any tricks on us). The food was good, but not as exceptional as other reviews state.
Everything! We stayed here 1 night before going back to Managua and it was everything we hoped for. Close to Moyogalpa, clean, the host was super knowledgeable about bus times and our trip to the airport was flawless thanks to him. I loved the open shared space that feels much cooler than the usually more cramped accomodations accross Nicaragua.
Great location. We took an early ferry so wanted to be near and was just a short 10 min downhill walk to Dock. The hotel has a large terrace out back to chill out in. The bar was lively and served yummy food and shakes. The staff were very friendly too. The decor was lovely and lively. I would stay here again.
Nice big room in a clean hotel with pool. Nice breakfast. Great staff. Various shared spaces to sit, enjoy views, play games. We rented a scooter, had an accident and the staff was very reasonable regarding the damages. The location is perfect just outside the “downtown” core. Street food options available nearby.
Rancho Tranquillo was one of my favorite parts of Nicaragua. I cannot wait to come back! Such a great place, wonderful location, a slight walk out of town but I quite enjoyed it as well as being away from the bustle and noise of Moyogalpa. Tons of hammocks, clean and spacious property and dorms.
For the price I paid for a room with an ensuite bathroom and fairly good breakfast it was really a steal. The people who run the guesthouse are very friendly although little English is spoken. The guesthouse is only a block away from Moyogalpa's main street and a short walk from the ferry port.
Comfortable room with two fans. very quiet location, easy to walk to the main area and great size pool. the hotel arranged transfer from the airport as well a scooter rental which both were great! Sarah was super responsive with all the questions I had. also there was free tea/coffee and water.
perfect stay at ometepe house! the location is just a few minutes from the boat dock and everything you need. the staff were so friendly and helpful to me very caring, the place and room was clean with a beautiful outdoor garden and full stocked kitchen.. I had such a lovely experience here.
Victoria Hotel is a small, clean,friendly place. The staff will, if they can, accommodate any request you may have. The WiFi is excellent. The rooms are clean and adequate for a few nights stay. The hammocks are great to swing in and enjoy the view of the volcano conception.
This is a great place in the middle of nature but still relatively close to Moyogalpa. Besides the beautiful location and nice clean room, it is the owners Tony and Daniella, who make it special. Great food, a positive atmosphere. Thank you very much for the great time.
Nothing. The place is a dumpster. It's very loud, you cannot have proper rest. and its very far from everywhere. You have private rooms at the same rates in Moyogalpa itself, close to the ferry, stores and restaurants.
They also treat solo females in derogatory way.
Coco's Hostel is immaculately clean, with a pleasant central garden area tended with care and hung with colorful hammocks. Mayela, the owner, is delightful and does her best to make the guest feel welcome. This is my "go to" place when I am in Moyogalpa.
Very nice family, feeling at home, sad that I don't have a good Spanish to exchange more withe family!! Very clean room and good breakfast!!
Very good situation close to the ferry in Moyogalpa and to the center!
Thank you for everything
Great location, very colorful hostel, lovely outdoor seating area with hammocks.
Staff really helpful and recommended good places to eat and visit around the island.
Bedroom was large and beds comfortable and good shower pressure!
The hotel is perfect for a short or long stay with the pool and the bar / restaurant offering breakfast and a variety of meals. They can also arrange tours and massage (for only 20$) and we definitely recommend it !
Amazing hostel! Clean. Staff go out if their way to help. Free coffee ☕ and drinking water available all day. The free pickup at the dock was a great service. I'll definitely return here when I'm in town again.
