An Oasis in San Juan del Sur

What Lonely Planet says about the Hotel Colonial:

San Juan del Sur, Top End: Hotel Colonial. This plush spot is a surfing fave, despite smallish rooms, which are elegantly attired in Spanish antiques and outfitted with all modern amenities.

Opened in April 2000, Hotel Colonial combines the nostalgia of past centuries with the new millennium. 

The solid brick building with its arches creates a gracious environment within the modern world. A traditional Latino interior garden converts the hotel into an oasis of tranquility in a lively fishing village. The rustic tile roof of the Ranchito del Abuelo creates a nostalgic open air space in the sumptuous garden and the traditional wooden furniture in the rooms continues an ambience between epochs.

Nostalgia combines with modern commodities - air conditioning, television, wireless Internet, private baths, complete breakfasts, secure parking facilities …..

To remind you that you are at the ocean, the mural of San Juan´s beachfront and bay, painted by the well-known humorist, Alfredo Martirena, animates the ambience of the breakfast room…..

Located just one block from the splendid beach with its charming restaurants and bars, Hotel Colonial is indeed an oasis for vacations, surf expeditions, meetings and seminars.

The proprietors contribute 40% of the profits from Hotel Colonial to support social and environmental projects of SofoNic, a civil society organization that began its work three decades ago in San Juan del Sur.
