Property Description

By visiting Hospedaje La Penita, you are visiting a true 5th-generation Ometepe family hostel.
3 generations contribute to making you stay one you won't soon forget.
Here, you can truly experience the laid-back vibe of Nica life amongst the locals.
Feel free to explore the island on your own or with a guided tour (that we will happily arrange for you upon request).
EXPLORE the island: Visit and swim in the natural springs of Ojo de Agua, go horseback riding, take a volcano tour, look for the waterfall of San Ramon, and try kayaking or zip-line through the canopy!
The bus that stops near our hostel will take you wherever you want to go. Real Nica breakfast can be served!! ( extra payment: Breakfast 3 USD ) This consists of local, vegetarian, or even veggie meals !!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AT THIS MOMENT NO DINNER IS SERVED !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Of course, relaxing in one of our comfortable hammocks and catching up on your reading whilst enjoying a cold drink,
is also an option with us. We are here to help with your plans and welcome the chance to have you stay with us.

Hasta pronto!


The rooms are basic: a locker, mirror, AC 110Volt power connection, fan, double bed with linen, a towel for shower, and a quality lock on the door. They all have there one entrance.

We loved it there. Lizzeth is a lovely host and her mom made us great breakfast and dinner. The atmosphere is very nice. The rooms are basic and the location is along the road but not really in the central so a scooter is the best way to get around.

More of a homestay say than a hostel. I can really recommend staying here to explore Ometepe. If you have a scooter the location is great between all the major spots. The family is very kind and welcoming, breakfast and family dinner have always been wonderful. Also the most comfortable beds I had during all my travels.
