A Glimpse of Our Daily Life

Meet the Tafoya family! 💗 They came to San Juan d Meet the Tafoya family! 💗

They came to San Juan del Sur from Las Vegas, ready to find a place to call home. After exploring a few different options with us, they quickly found the perfect fit: a 3-bedroom ocean-view villa with a large private pool, just minutes from town. 🌴🌊

Last week, Elisha had the pleasure of showing them around town, and naturally, a coco frío stop was in order! 🥥

Alisha and David, thank you for trusting us to help you find your happy place in San Juan del Sur.

We’re excited for your next chapter and feel grateful to be part of your journey! 💙🙏🏻🇳🇮

Thinking about buying or renting a motorcycle in N Thinking about buying or renting a motorcycle in Nicaragua?

Here are a few things to know before hitting the road:

🏍️ Helmets are required by law.
🪪 Riders need a valid motorcycle license. 
💵 Moto insurance costs approximately $35 USD per year. 
🚦The current maximum speed limit for motorcycles is 40 kmph (on highways). Don't let the old speed limit signs fool you.

Whether you're zipping around town or venturing beyond the nearby beaches, a motorcycle is a fun and practical way to experience Nicaragua.

In fact, if you ask Gordon, he'll tell you it's hands down the best way to see the country. 😎

One of our favorite parts of what we do is getting One of our favorite parts of what we do is getting to connect with such interesting people along the way.

Meet Chris! 👋

He recently made the move to Nicaragua from Oklahoma, after spending much of the last 20 years living and working in Tanzania.

He decided it was time to slow things down and start a new chapter here.

Now he's settling into life in San Juan del Sur with his adorable new sidekick, Milo. 🐶

Chris, we're so happy you're here!

Wishing you and Milo lots of new friends, plenty of unforgettable sunsets, and many great adventures ahead.

Thanks for letting us be a small part of your journey. Bienvenidos! 🇳🇮 ♥️

Our favorite Nicaraguan event of the year has come Our favorite Nicaraguan event of the year has come and gone—Palo Lucio 2026! 🇳🇮🎉

The climb began at 1 PM, and after more than two hours of determination (powered along the way by Joyita and cervezas) the white flag at the top of the greasy pole was captured at 3:23 PM. 🏳️

Felicidades to the entire team, with a special shout-out to lsmael, who braved the crazy height and heat to go to the very top of the pole and claim the flag. 💪🏻👊🏻

Until next year, Palo Lucio! ❤️
