Extra fan or ceiling fan for the dorms would be great for the top bunk!

Staff was wonderful. Was gracious with our Spanish. Super accommodating and kind! Beautiful view and facility. Simple but really great place to retreat!

The food is bad. We tried the burger, the burrito, the nachos, the tostones, the vegetarian plate, breakfast… nothing was decent. And it is expensive. So, definitely not worth it. Bring your own food and enjoy the stay! I recommend staying during weekdays, which is more peaceful and you can actually enjoy the place. We had a group of people on a Sunday that got very drunk on the dock (there’s no protocol about alcohol in the place) and one of them vomit all over the dock and the lake. No one took them out and they continued drinking there. Until I asked the manager to do something about it.

The location is great, the installation are simple but good, it is clean. The place is very peaceful during weekdays.

Room was located next to the common kitchen, therefore could not sleep long. Room was very tiny

The place and beach club is nice.

Stayed in April 2025

Restaurant closed very early, which wasn’t the most convenient for us to have an evening drink, because we had to go to another venue and then walk back in the dark.

We really enjoyed kayaking and the floating dock, your staff were also very friendly.

Fun to splash around in the beautiful warm clear-watered lagoon, fun to borrow their free, included options of paddleboards and kayaks. The staff was all pleasant and helpful. The food we had was decent and not crazily priced. The beds were comfortable and clean with spacious lockers next to the beds with plenty of space for a suitcase and a backpack. Beautiful location and wonderful spot to spend a few nights being peaceful.

In the restaurant the prices are apsurdly high (at first they seem normal, but they put a disclaimer that taxes are not included in the price - how would I know what are taxes in Nicaragua? just write down the final price, making me less suprised that I will pay 15$ for a simple meal). In 4 nights, no change of towles or room cleaning. Kitchen is nice but poorly equiped (only 2pairs of cutlery of each, you literally have to wait your turn if there are more guests using a kitchen). If you like peace, I suggest to avoid weekends as there are many people coming in the laguna for a day. Also, next door hotel has parties until midnight or so during the weekend (really loud music, and your windows are basically always opened). And for the end NO HOT WATER (they said it is in the description, but its not as its not anywhere).

We really enjoyed our stay here (4 nights) - great place to stay for few days, but if you are with a car (rentacar, Masaya and Granada are 15-20min drive). Water is nice and warmer from the ocean, lots of shade. Rooms was nice, nothing special but clean and big bathroom. Lots of friendly animals. Very clean! You can use the kitchen so I suggest you equip yourself with food and drinks because its not worth it to buy or eat from restaurant.

The place is magic and staff is very nice. The price was really good for what was been offered.

The restaurant could be improved, the food was fine and reasonably priced but nothing amazing. It took a while to get a servers attention to order. In the mornings/evenings sometimes there was no one around to even ask to order. They don’t provide free filtered water which was an anomaly to every other place I’ve stayed in Central America so far.

Right on the water and can use their kayaks/paddleboards for free. Nice and quiet during the week. Saw a whole family of monkeys in the trees! The staff were also very friendly.

The walls are indeed a little bit thin bit there wasn’t anything going on when we were there so all good!

Super nicely done situated right at the lake with lots of beautiful space to sit down.

This isn't a place for you if you're a light sleeper. In the dormitory, we could hear everything that was happening outside, from the party next door until late at night to the people shouting in the showers at 5am. Food was average, little choice for vegetarians

The location is overall enjoyable. The shower and toilets were clean, and soap/shampoo were available. There were lockers in the dormitory to lock our things. Free coffee in the morning

We had a few issues with the laundry and the room however every time there was a problem the beach club went above and beyond to resolve the issues. We were very grateful for their support and attentive staff. We would visit again as a result.

The Double Room that we had was fine and clean but nothing special. The blinds on the windows were a bit awkward - they were made of bamboo and tied up in an ad hoc manner that made it difficult to pull down or put back up. Note: The restaurant / bar closes at 7pm. It actually felt as though the whole place closed overnight even though guests were staying which we found a bit strange

The ability to swim, SUP and kayak in the Laguna from here is fantastic and hard bet! They have 2 pontoons out in the water which was great. They also have the most fun dog who comes swimming with guests and can even climb up onto the pontoons!

Restaurant has limited options.

Great views. Feels like you are part of the jungle.

Location

Stayed in May 2024

It is quite a steep steps down to the waters edge (you are in a volcanic crater after all!) So might be difficult if infirm. Rooms VERY hot as they have solid plastic windows that don't open. Fans are ok, but expect a sticky nights sleep. Can have a/c for an extra $10 a night. I can't sleep with a/c as I find it too cold, but it's needed to cook the room down in the first place.

So good we stayed here twice as long! Truly and amazing location: you can see most of the caldera. The water is warm - can be super warm in places where the volcanic springs go into the lake. Reasonable price for drinks and food (remember to add tax!). Wifi good. Howler monkeys nearby (but not too close). Didn't seem to be many biting insects. Lots of ospreys and other birds. They have a brown labrador that is v friendly and will stick close to you of you take her swimming and throw stones in the lake for her (someone please take her a rubber ball or some old tennis balls!). It's amazing how she can climb on the pontoons! Lots of fish, take mask and snorkel. They will give your feet a spa treatment if you sit still!

Considering going again

Stayed in March 2024

Kitchen was okay but not amazing - lacking basics (eg no cutlery so always had to go to the restaurant to ask? Strange set up).

The location was stunning - beautiful gardens and lovely lakefront property so perfect access to swim. Pontoons in the lake plus paddle boards and kayaks all for free use were great fun. View from our room was lovely. Bathroom was nice and very clean, same for our room which was a pleasant temp at night thanks to two fans. Staff were always very friendly

Nothing

The staff were all amazing. They were up early to clean and ready the property. They were always available to help with food, drinks, tours, advice, taxis. Such a relaxing place

Stayed in February 2024

Tiny things, the smell of cleaning agents was a bit strong in our room and the filtered water was empty so we had to buy bottles.

The Laguna Beach Club has two faces. During the day it is a popular spot for families and groups to hace a party and enjoy the Laguna de Apoyo. If you are looking for a quite spot to relax, it can be a bit too much during the day depending on the day. Still, the free kayaks are great and the warer of the laguna very clear and wonderful. The day visitors leave around 6 pm and don’t arrive before 9 am. Between these hours, the spot is beautiful, quiet and a bit magical with howler monkeys and Nicaraguan birds waking you up in the morning. I would recommend it again. The personal is very helpful, kind and very approachable.

Stayed in January 2024

It gets really loud and crowded during the day. Restaurant and bar close at 6pm, so you might not be able to get food and drinks when you come back from a daytrip and want to hang out at night.

I have stayed at Laguna Beach Club about 10 years ago and had a great time. Since then it has heavily extended its day tourist business which makes the place pretty busy and not very quiet and relaxing during the day. We did day trips to escape the crowds and it was beautiful and calm in the mornings. The lagoon is one of my favorite places in Nicaragua. Laguna Beach Club is affordable and staff is very friendly and accomodating.
