So glad i went on this trip. Me and a friend stayed at Popoyo beach lodge for 9 days, the surf was outstanding and the accommodation was very comfortable and I would certainly reccommend this lodge to anyone considering going on a surfing vacation. The wave out in front of the lodge is one the most consistent beach breaks that... More

I stayed at the Popoyo beach lodge in December for one week. I had a great time. The accommodation is right on the beach and very comfortable. My sole purpose in going there was to surf as much as I could, and this location enabled me to do just that. Directly out the front of the lodge is a beach... More

My husband and I stayed in PBL for 6 nights in July 2012 for our honeymoon, and could not have had a better time! Robert and Susan are the best; Susan always answered the phone and got back with emails almost immediately. Their communication is amazing. Susan also collected some rocks on the beach and shaped them into a heart... More

My two sons and I spent 7 days at the Popoyo Beach Lodge and had a blast. It was our first surf trip to Nicaragua and it couldn't have been better. Owners Robert and Susan were very helpful in arranging all the details, including transportation and advice on surf spots, restaurants, and things to do. The house is very nice,... More

The house is well maintained and right on the beach. The front porch is where we spent most of our time, reading and enjoying the waves from a hammock. The kitchen is well-equipped and the rooms are clean and comfortable. The swimming was great and there are rocks close by where you can explore tide pools. There are restaurants close... More

Roll out of bed (or hammock), take 20 steps, get into the waves. Yes, the Popoyo Lodge is THAT close. When the waves aren't happening there (once or twice on a 10-day trip), Robert, and his sons, Auggie and Marsh know exactly where to go to find a wave. Thing is - it's never very far away from the lodge... More

Of course the surf is great with predomnant offshores and consistent swell. 100 yards out the front door is awesome beach break, so the location is superb. But, what really made the trip complete was the total package provided by Richard and Susan. Richard has the whole placed wired, knows where to surf, where to eat, where to fish, what... More

Get some perspective and book Popoyo Beach Lodge! It was my first time traveling to Nicaragua, and I was recommended this spot from a friend. On arrival you will be blown away by it's unique location. The loge is minutes away from one of the most hollow fun waves in Nica. It's safe and secure and very inspiring place to... More
