Nicaragua
Pelican Eyes Resort and Spa
De la Parroquia, 1.5 cuadras al este
San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua
The whitewashed façades, red tejas-tiled roofs, and tropical gardens of the Pelican Eyes Resort & Spa have become something of a landmark in this tiny Nicaraguan fishing village. What began as a local sailing charter business has evolved into 69 spacious units (houses, smaller townhouses, and studios) with hardwood accents and terracotta floor tiles—all perched on a hill overlooking San Juan del Sur Rivas’s horseshoe bay. Admire the yachts below while floating in one of three infinity pools; indulge in an invigorating coffee-and-cocoa wrap at the spa; or sample a Creole-style dish of fresh-caught red snapper with fried plantains at La Canoa restaurant. Then take advantage of the hotel’s prime location—it’s the only full-service resort in town.
Room to Book:
Privacy seekers opt for the secluded Casa Ruso, a two-bedroom white-adobe villa with its own plunge pool, a full-service kitchen, and uninterrupted sea views.
Insider Tip:
Guests are offered reduced rates on the hotel’s instructor-led Vinyasa yoga sessions, held on a wooden deck overlooking the town.
