Experience the best Nicaragua beaches at these beautiful luxury resorts

Beautiful beaches and coastlines

With awesome volcanoes, vast lakes, and some of the most extensive rainforests in Central America, Nicaragua is a special country. And with more than 500 miles of Pacific Ocean and Caribbean Sea coastline its beaches may just be the jewel in the crown.

Thanks to some visionary hoteliers you can now experience some of the best Nicaragua beaches while staying in incredibly luxurious and innovative accommodation. Getting off the beaten path has never been so grand.

With such a lot of gorgeous coast to cover, and the variety of the Caribbean Sea and Pacific Ocean to choose from, you can imagine picking just one to laud as the very best of Nicaragua beaches is pretty much impossible.

So, we’ve decided to pay tribute to the incredible hotels and resorts, and the people behind them, who picked their number ones, and built exquisite places to stay so others could access the shores they so admired, while experiencing Nicaragua in calming luxury. Our list of Nicaragua’s best luxury hotels is below.

To give you a bit more of an idea of what you’re in for if you decide to go (highly likely you’re going to want to go after reading this) here’s a quick round-up of some of the other highlights too.

The Pacific coast of Nicaragua is big for surf, with plenty of spots suitable for beginners or the more advanced. Don’t worry if surfing’s not your thing either, the waves are so dramatic a trip just to watch them crash upon Nicaragua’s beautiful shores won’t be wasted. Along the Caribbean Sea side diving, especially around the Corn Islands, is really popular.

Wildlife is abundant in Nicaragua above and below the waterline. From sea turtles to monkeys, and jaguars in the jungle this is the place to forget city life and surround yourself in nature. Same goes for volcanoes. You can hike up some of them or just admire their awesome beauty from a distance and fill your Instagram feed with as many jaw-dropping volcano pictures as your followers can handle.

Also, Lake Nicaragua. It’s the largest lake in Central America, and the 19th largest lake in the world. It’s pretty spectacular.
