Boasting a garden, shared lounge, terrace and free WiFi, Hostel Clandestino Maderas is set in Playa Maderas, 600 metres from Maderas Beach and 8.1 km from Christ of the Mercy Nicaragua. The accommodation offers a shared kitchen, and luggage storage for guests. Wow, this hostel is just something special! We are so happy we stayed here. It is beautifully located, surrounded by nature and with breathtaking views. The open, well equipped and clean kitchen is a place to meet other travelers and is the perfect spot to hang out between surf sessions. The rooms and bathrooms are super pretty and clean! The skate bowl and yoga deck were for sure another big highlight! The greatest thing were the people running the place. They even take care of you before you get there! They send you all info beforehand and they organize social events, day trips to other beaches, pizza night and they are always there to answer your questions. We think it is outstanding for this price! All guests matched that vibe and therefore has the best time ever! We will for sure come back to this magical place! The little hill up is also no problem because you can rent boards directly down at the beach ;) Thanks for this amazing time!

La Urraca Loca Hostel has a garden, terrace, a restaurant and bar in Balgue. Featuring barbecue facilities, the property is located within 12 km of Maderas Volcano. The accommodation features a shared kitchen, a tour desk and currency exchange for guests. We had an amazing stay at La Urraca Loca. The location on the island is perfect for most activities. The hostel is an oasis of beautiful plants and the rooms are great. Also Daniel is very helpful and attentive. I’ve recommended this hostel to everyone who visits Ometepe since it is probably my favorite on in my two months in Central-America. Also shoutout to the lovely kitten Gnocchi (such a good name.. ;))

Among the facilities at this property are a tour desk and luggage storage space, along with free WiFi throughout the property. Guests can enjoy Chinese and British dishes at the restaurant or have a cocktail at the bar. I loved the atmosphere of the hostel. In the evening time they had candles everywhere and lights. It was so beautiful. They also have a lookout place where you can see the volcano during the day and stars at night time. It was a super quiet and chill place. They also had kitties which is a big bonus.
