Morgan's Rock

Morgan's Rock pulls off an amazing feat of being a sustainable ecolodge surrounded by untouched nature while also providing the comforts of a luxury hotel. The design of the rooms is beautiful and allows the sun and breeze (which is strong sometimes) to circulate, which is a very unique experience. The bed is super comfortable and the water pressure and hot water in the bathroom were perfect. If you haven't stayed in an ecolodge before you should consider that there are bugs (including scorpions) in this type of environment. The few bugs that made it into our room didn't bother us, and our room was kept immaculately clean throughout our stay. The beach setup was a real standout for me, with more than enough shaded cabanas equipped with hammocks, swings, lounge chairs and tables for all of the guests. You can also order food and drinks from the beach. The water was calm one day and rough the next day, so be careful if you plan on swimming. The pool is gorgeous and an idyllic place to relax. There's also a shaded lounge area near the pool, which is a huge plus to take a break from the sun. Room selection is important here, as the villas are built going up a hill from the beach. The higher the room number, the higher it is up on the hill. I think our room (15) was the highest and the view was incredible. We saw the national bird of Nicaragua right outside our room in the morning, along with 4 white-faced capuchins who were hilarious. Our room was about a 15 minute walk up stairs and across the suspension bridge to the lobby and restaurant. The food is very good, but the menu is relatively limited. If you have specific dietary needs I recommend reaching out to the hotel in advance, as they are very accommodating. Junior was an excellent bartender and there were plenty of options for wine and cocktails. There is no store or anything within walking distance once you arrive, so you should pick up anything you definitely want to have during your stay on the drive from the airport. Our driver Jason kindly stopped at a convenience store that had coffee, snacks and drinks. The staff at Morgan's Rock are really outstanding and they made our stay so comfortable and fun. In addition to Jason and Junior, Abraham, Henry, Bismach, Carlos, Sylvia and Federico were all outstanding. My husband and I speak very limited Spanish and they were extremely kind and understanding. This was our second trip to San Juan del Sur and we'll definitely be back!

Lovely hidden escape that feels remote but safe and welcoming. We celebrated a wedding with friends and it was festive, relaxing, exciting (surf lessons), and all with great weather and excellent service. Food is tasty, rooms well appointed, staff there to help. Thank you!

My family and I stayed in a 2 bedroom villa for 4 nights. The villa was spacious, well done and provided excellent views. The monkeys playing in the trees and howling in the morning were an added bonus. The beach was beautiful and clean. Meals were delicious and the service was on point. I had a massage and the experience was nice. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and enjoyed all of the interesting aspects of staying at an eco lodge.
