Hacienda Puerta del Cielo Eco Lodge & Spa

During our unforgettable stay at Hacienda Puerta del Cielo Eco Spa in Nicaragua, my daughter and I were treated to a truly magical experience. Perched on a secluded overlook of the Masaya Volcano and lagoon, the breathtaking views surrounding the Hacienda were awe-inspiring. We had the place almost to ourselves on a peaceful weekday, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the tranquility of this secluded paradise. The Hacienda itself is a haven of relaxation, with comfy hammocks, quiet nooks, and sunny poolside lounges beckoning us to unwind and soak in Nicaragua's natural beauty. The Hacienda's commitment to eco-friendliness was truly commendable. Locally sourced materials and vibrant murals depicting Nicaraguan life added to its unique charm. The owner's dedication to sustainability was evident in every aspect of the Hacienda. Their attentive service and the staff's efforts to make our stay perfect were the cherry on top of this eco-friendly paradise. The dining experience at Hacienda Puerta del Cielo was equally delightful. We savored delicious meals made from locally sourced, farm-to-table ingredients. From traditional Nicaraguan dishes like jalapeño chicken to international options like chicken tenders, there was something to please every palate. It was truly one of the best meals we had during our time in Nicaragua. Hacienda Puerta del Cielo Eco Spa is a hidden gem that exceeded all expectations. Its stunning location, luxurious accommodations, and warm hospitality make it the perfect retreat for travelers seeking relaxation and rejuvenation. We feel incredibly fortunate to have discovered this paradise and can't wait to return for another unforgettable stay. If you're looking fora romantic getaway I highly recommend the Honeymoon Suite. We did not stay here but had a chance to see it as it was when we where there. From the Jacuzzi tub to the romantic outdoor shower, every detail was thoughtfully designed. The private deck, complete with hammocks and deck chairs, offered the perfect spot to unwind and take in the stunning vistas and it gives you direct, private access to the pool.

Fantastic, one of a kind place. Cool place made out of local and natural materials. Excellent views, owner, and staff. Staff was very helpful in arranging tours and transformation. Food was excellent. Owner went out his way to find fresh fish to make a local dish that wasn't on the menu. Recommend visiting if you are in Nicaragua.

A taxi drive of about 75-90 minutes brings you for around 50 USD from the international airport to this rather remote place. The last part of the travel is a rather bumpy 1,5 km road but you forget everything when you arrive at the terrace in the hacienda and see the view of the volcanoes. Amazing! The rooms are cozy with a comfortable hammock and outside rocking chairs. The owner JC is a great, flexible and problem-solving host with wonderful stories. He cares about his guests supported by his sweet staff. Meals are ok. We made nice trips to the volcano rim, hiked to the village and around the lake. Suggestions for improvement: 1) internet was sometimes weak and sometimes ok, 2) this was the only hotel in Nicaragua where we had to pay for water (and you cannot drink the tap water in Nicaragua), 3) no water cooker/fridge in the room, and 4) also compared to other hotels the tours/taxi drives offered are on the expensive side. Thanks for a wonderful stay!!!

Pure magic! The location, the room, the hospitality, and the food was dreamy. The PERFECT destination for a quiet getaway with a loved one or friends. I will always cherish how well JC, Pablo, Isabel and Francisco took care of us.

Fantastic place with everything you need for a good time. The view was great and the food was great. The personal was very nice and Francisco who worked in the reception and bar was always aviable to help if i needed something. Recommend this place to all! Andreas

This was our first trip to Nicaragua and I could not have picked a better place to stay then Hacienda Puerta Del Cielo Eco Lodge & Spa. When we arrived at the airport they were their to greet us, making our arrival go smoothly. We stayed in the honeymoon suite which was very nice. It has its own porch with a hammock, and access to the pool. The lodge has many comfortable places to sit and take in the views of the valle and Masaya Volcano off in the distances. Each night we enjoyed our wine while watching the clouds from the volcano making a colorful sunset. It a great location for visiting the Masaya volcano, Maysaya artisan market, tours of Granada, and Catarina. Many of the packages include these tours which are well worth it. The staff here are so warm and welcoming. They take care of anything you may need or want. We had all our meals here and enjoyed everyone of them. Everything is made fresh to order. I would highly recommend this lodge and spa for any length of stay. We were there for 5 nights and enjoyed every moment of our time there.
