Vonda C August 31, 2021. Our place to Escape
This was our 2nd stay at Buena Onda. A surfers paradise with the best valued surf packages and guide your money can buy. The added palapa, hanging hammocks and outdoor dining area were a perfect addition to this already beautiful space. The on- site restaurant is such a plus, I couldn’t imagine staying somewhere that did not provide this service, not to mention the extremely affordable and AMAZING food. I believe we had lobster about 4-5 nights. The rooms are very comfortable & you can choose from a variety of rooms to fit your needs or budget. The pool was always clean, the grounds manicured, and the entire staff so friendly & attentive. I would only suggest that any 1st time visitors to Nicaragua, familiarize yourself with the Nicaraguan culture before visiting, & remember that even in all of its beauty, this is not Disney World, it is still a 3rd World Country. We always felt very safe, despite the local passing farm animals from time to time. The bilingual American managers Paul & Cameron, made myself, a non-Spanish speaking guest, feel very comfortable & looked after during our entire stay. We took a trip shopping at the outdoor markets in Granada, & a “must do” guided boat tour on Lake Nicaragua, and Cameron was super helpful as our guide and had our best interest at heart. We just love Buena Onda and look forward to our next trip. 
Buck Arnold August 26, 2021. Best. Place. Ever.
Absolutely amazing. Great rooms. Beautiful resort. But the best part is definitely the employees. Everyone was so welcoming. My surf guide Cameron made sure I had the best time possible and catered to my every need. Paul was there to help whenever it was needed and makes you feel welcome at all times. Had the pleasure of spending time with the owners and they are some of the most down to earth and kind people on the planet. The rooms are kept extremely clean every day. The employees working the restaurant are also amazing. Whether you are an avid surfer looking to o score pumping surf or just want to lay on the beach for a week or two…this is the best place to go. I will most definitely be a returning customer. I see no need to search for another resort in Nicaragua or even Central America.

Located right outside the renowned Rancho Satana, Buena Onda offers the best of all worlds. Within walking distance of both Rancho Santana and Magnific Rock, while also offering top notch amenities on site, Buena Onda is in the perfect location to enjoy the Nica experience. 
Carlos G April 15, 2021. Great place for vacations
We stayed at one of the Hilltop Villas, it was our second visit and it wont be our last. During our stay we enjoyed all the amenities that come with the house.
Clean place, great staff, cool beach, awesome view... what else can you ask for? 
Armando Sapo April 12, 2021. Exellent stay
We stayed a week at Buena Onda during the Semana Santa and loved the place. The Resort offers a lot of space, the room was clean and comfortable and there are a lot of hammocks, perfect to relax after a surf session. The food was amazing and we loved the beachfront restaurant overlooking the ocean. An awesome experience. 
jubileetwist April 10, 2021. Pretty Perfect
What a great experience! I went with my wife and daughter and had a fantastic time. Buena Onda has seemingly thought of everything; everything we needed was readily available. The staff were all friendly, the food was great, the beach setting itself was stunning, and it wasn't overcrowded. I can't wait to come back and do it again! 
Luca F October 29, 2020. Lugar Genial y Seguro!
Buena Onda es realmente un lugar genial. Cuartos comodos, detalles de alto nivel, posición privilegiada cerca del mar. En esta época de dificultad pandemica es importante resaltar el higiene impecable y las medidas sanitarias aplicadas, las cuales permiten disfrutar del lugar sintiendose seguros. Buena Onda! 😉 
Benoit P March 24, 2020. A piece of paradise...with great surf just in front
From the hotel, to the beach restaurant, to the swimming pool and to the quality surf just in front, I strongly recommend you to visit Buena Onda while you're in Popoyo.
Cheers to the two nice French ladies who welcomed me and my son so warmly when we arrived and thanks to all hotel staff.

Great Place to Spend a Couple of Days. Surfing just a couple of steps from the hotel
Spend two glorious days at this small hotel. A couple of suggestions:
1. Need to open a bar next to the Pool. Had to walk 50 meters for a beer!!!
2. Improve the water system to bathroom is salty.!!! No recommend for human consumption
3. Improve menu at the beach restaurant is limited
4. Better signage to get to hotel from Ochomogo Bridge or Panamerican Highway
5. Lots of mosquitoes. Bring lots of repellent
Let me Congratulate you on your great staff!!! The best in the Tola area. I’ve stayed in many hotels and I’m sure what I’m saying.
Real Estate
