Playa Gigante

One of the Top Places To See in Nicaragua, Ometepe island is a hidden gem and a must-see on your Central American trip. Made of a perfectly-formed strata-volcano and it’s dormant twin, complete with cloudforest. It’s the highlight of many people’s time here. It’s lush, hospitable, easy to get to and has great coffee plantations.

Nicaragua is a traveller’s delight, with coasts on the pacific and caribbean side. It has colonial cities, crater lagoons, islands, surf and more volcanoes than you can hike.

It is culturally rich, values community. and very hospitable. The perfect holiday destination.

We have a range of houses and cabins open to guests on the 2 acre permaculture farm, which are rated as some of the best places to stay on Ometepe. They are built using natural, local and sustainable materials, while also not being impractical; crafted by local tradesmen and filled with local art. Located at the base of a dormant volcano in the middle of the largest lake in Central America, this is the destination to be. The Selvista experience is the best way to experience ometepe island.
