“Surf Ranch Hotel & Resort stands out with its unique focus on action sports, notably the skateboard park and rock-climbing wall-amenities that distinguish it within Nicaragua. The pirate-themed water park caters well to families, while proximity to surf beaches offers convenience. I found the blend of recreational activities and onsite dining creates a comprehensive experience, despite some maintenance concerns and distance from town.”
