We originally booked for three nights and stayed for six. I couldn’t recommend this place highly enough. The accommodation is of a really high standard and has obviously been built with a lot of thought and attention to detail. We stayed in a Gulliver suite which had two beds with crisp sheets, a table and chairs and private shower room with hot water. The location is amazing, right on the beach with ample places to sit and chill but only a ten minute walk from the village with its bars and restaurants. The owner, Scott was so helpful and friendly and the food was some of the best I’ve had in Nicaragua, particularly the seafood omelette and Cinnabon toast! The WiFi is also probably the best on the whole island and even works on the beach. If you are looking for a bit of luxury on a beautiful Caribbean island, look no further.

Hi Helen and Tony, It was a real pleasure having you stay with us. You have no idea the difference in the lives of our staff you made while you were here. 10 months of being closed has taken it's toll on Billions around the world and our wonderful staff are no exception. By staying with us and extending your stay to boot, you helped our 11 Nicaraguan employees start digging themselves out of hard times. Thank you so much, we are incredibly grateful!! We can not wait to see you both again in the near future.

The only thing that could have improved our stay at Little Corn Beach and Bungalow would have been if we'd booked a longer stay. We hated to go home, and can't wait to get back there. It had a charm and character that the other places on the island lacked. The whole resort felt like a special paradise we never wanted to leave. From the cordial greeting at the dock when we got off the panga, to the daily interactions with staff, and the fond farewell, the employees were all awesome. They answered questions, gave recommendations, they were prompt, and went out of their way to be accommodating. They were a smooth working team to say the least. We stayed in the Gulliver cabin which was right on the beach. With the loft, the cabin was perfect for the three of us. It was cleaned everyday and the sea breeze made air conditioning unnecessary. The beds were comfortable, we slept great, and never had a disturbance from neighbor cabins. We appreciated the little touches like the foot pool to wash our feet before going inside. The water was changed throughout the day so the cabin pretty much sand free. The front porch was our favorite place to start and end the day. We couldn't get enough of the view. The grounds were impeccably maintained with hammocks and lounge chairs placed perfectly for sun or shade. The Turned Turtle restaurant served high quality dishes that never disappointed. There is no need to travel off the resort for food and drinks. The menu offered a nice variety, and you will beg for the pina colda recipe. I can't recommend Little Corn Beach and Bungalow enough!

Thank you for sharing your experience with other travelers. We are so glad we were part of your "paradise" holiday. Thanks for sharing to your experience with the lack of air conditioning available. We get a few questions about that and your comments that the "sea breeze made a/c unnecessary" is a wonderful way to address the question. Our whole Nicaraguan staff is incredibly dedicated and hard working and we are so proud of our grounds crew and the great work they do. Thank you for recognizing their excellent work. Please come see us again. We try to get better everyday and would love you back to check us out when you come back. Kindest regards.

This place is amazing in some many ways, first of all The Service is the best I've ever had, you feel really welcomed once you stepped in the hotel, one of the staff welcome you with fresh juice and cookies and a friendly smile. Then it show you the amazing cabins (We had the benefit to stay in two different cabins) and explains all the benefits of the RADDEAL (if you opt for this plan) For me and my friends was the best deal ever. We stayed first at Shackleton Beach Front Cabin and then at the Livingstone Garden Located Cabin which was very private, big and the bathroom was really nice and spacious (I preferred this one). Despite there's no A/C we didn't suffer from heat. The food was really good at the Turned Turtle and I recommend the Lobster Tacos in the Lunch Menu. The place has a lot of details that will make you want to come back and also the warm and cozy friendship you make with the staff. I will definitely come back again to this paradise and enjoy all the beautiful service this place has to offer. Thank you to all the staff and the manager for every detail and jokes included in service 👌🏽

Stayed at beach and bungalow for 4 nights and had a wonderful time. Staff were attentive and helpful and you can tell that the place pays a lot of attention to detail. Rooms cleaned every day, beach raked clean every day, security 24/7, lock box in room. Located a 15 minute walk along the beach to the center of town, but closer by to some smaller beachside restaurants plus the restaurant at the hotel, Turned Turtle, is absolutely superb. We did a snorkel trip for $25 per person that was fun and saw some good wildlife. On the windy side of the island which makes for a pleasant temperature. Took the evening public panga to little corn but had to pay $100 for a private panga the morning of our flight since there are fewer public pangas scheduled due to COVID so would ask about panga schedule ahead of time. All in all, this place had everything we needed for a relaxing vacation - the food alone would make us come back! 10/10 would recommend.

I was born in Managua but left when I was young, raised mostly in the US. My mom frequents Nicaragua yearly, and on this trip I decided to join her. I wanted us to explore Corn Islands, since we both had never been. Looking at the pictures online we were both eager. I did my research of the island first and we could not have selected a much better place to stay. We spend 3 nights in little corn and one night in Big corn. honestly now I wish we would have stayed the extra days in little corn. This B & B is beyond relaxing, and comfortable, but the service and staff were exceptional! My mom and I truly loved it. The restaurant's food was so delicious, we wanted to try everything on the menu. The presentation was superb, but above all the costumer service was on point. We not only felt safe, but felt so appreciative as the staff was always checking on us ensuring we were good. We really felt for the value of what we paid it was all worth it. My mom looked forward to the coffee and fresh squeeze juice brought to our room every morning. Event the staff ensuring the beach, beach chairs and our luggage were handled properly, we enjoyed every day of our stay.
We can't wait to go back. This is definitely our paradise within a paradise!

We had an amazing 3 night stay at LCBandB, and had I known just how fantastic it would be I would have booked more nights there and less on Big Corn. The service here is the best I have had in recent memory and certainly the best I have come across in my 10 plus living and traveling in Nicaragua. From the moment you arrive the staff greets you by name. Sheera, a stand out employee, gave a very informative and entertaining welcome orientation and she continued to be a delight throughout our stay. Our Bungalow was filled with fresh flowers, water, snacks and a delicious bottle of wine. The room itself is very cute with a comfortable bed and a charming, private and romantic feel. The location seemed a bit far from anything at first, but as soon as we got our bearings straight we found the location to be ideal and easily walked to the many beautiful beaches and into the town where there are a couple of decent restaurants although not nearly as good as The Turned Turtle hotel restaurant. Owner Scott and waiter David were two other standouts, although everyone at the hotel was very hospitable. An unexpected late check out was offered and was a very thoughtful end to our stay. Super....just super!

Thank you so much for mentioning all the aspects you enjoyed at our little resort. You mentioned "Romantic" and coincidentally, Trip Advisor recently named Little Corn Island Beach and Bungalow as one of the "Best of the Best" hotels in the world (top 1% and the only Corn islands hotel thus awarded) and we were blessed to be included in the "20 most Romantic" resorts in Central America (#10, again the only listed hotel in the Corn Islands and for that matter Nicaragua). We are honored that the hard and heartfelt work of our wonderful staff is being noticed by our guests and entities like Trip Advisor. Please come see us again.

Just returned from an amazing trip to Little Corn Island where I stayed with my boyfriend at Little Corn Beach and Bungalow. This place is a hidden gem with the most wonderful and accommodating staff. The bungalow itself was immaculate and so much more luxurious than expected. The service was better than most 5 star hotels and I always felt safe. This spot is on the windy side of the island which makes the nights fabulously cool and very few (if any bugs)...I saw 1 mosquito over the course of 2 weeks. They're also very eco-friendly which does so much to help maintain the integrity of this very small island. Do yourself a favor and look no further - its by far the best of the best. Also: Jordy, Chy, and Jess were standout employees who always went above and beyond for us.

Little Corn B&B has been on my ‘list’ to visit for well over a few years now and I am happy to have finally made it! The plane and the boat were definitely part of the adventure but it was worth it to be in such a special place. Also I’m glad we had some flexibility in our travel dates because the wind picked up that week and we ended up staying a couple of extra nights due to there being no boats coming/going from the island. There are so many great things to mention but we loved the tranquility of each day spent relaxing as well as the amazing service from all of the staff. Having the RADD deal actually made it feel pretty close to having an all inclusive experience which we really enjoyed. Currently the restaurant is only open until 3pm each day so we either ordered dinner ahead or went out for dinner in town. Keep in mind that on this island you do have to walk everywhere which we felt was a good thing after eating and drinking so much. I know travel is on another level right now but it is possible to get here (I made it from Boston) and completely worth it!

Hi Stephanie, Sure was great having you here with us. Thank you for the very kind review. We are so proud of our staff. Without exception, none of them had any service experience prior to working with us. They are so dedicated to great service (in every department) that they kindly put up with all the training and review we provide just so they can get better. Thanks to the generosity of guests like you, their hard work is well paid and happy work. All of our guests can tell, and we can affirm, "their hearts are in it". Thank you for making the trip happen in such challenging times. You have been 2 of many that have fought thru the challenges to get here. And generally, we think those that have are glad that they did. Please come back and see us soon. Kindly,

We had an amazing holiday on Little Corn Island. The location is really cool - It's one of those increasing rare tropical places that is still untouched. It's not overrun with tourists or full of pretentious "luxury" resorts. Little Corn B&B rides that perfect balance of a lovely place to stay while still being in a very remote environment. The rooms are lovely - nicely designed and have quality linens. The setting is beautiful. The resort gets an easterly breeze and has a great sand beach. The food is REALLY good too. The menu (with daily specials) is innovative, the ingredients are fresh and the meals are delicious. If all that was not enough, what makes LC B&B extra special is their staff. The could not be more fun, friendly, helpful and gracious. This was not our first time and will not be our last!

This hotel is a gem. It offers everything you would want for an ultimate remote island experience. Feels like you are at the other end of the world, but only a 20 minute walk through the tropical forest to the main wharf and the only village on the island. But remember, bring a good flashlight, because sunset is at 5:30pm all year long. We were in the beach front Gulliver bungalow which was so tastefully decorated, respecting the tropical style, but offering all modern amenities. Always a strong breeze on this side of the island, so no problem with mosquitoes. The owners have thought of the small touches that make a difference, such as welcome snacks and wine, 7am coffee and juice at your doorstep, and our much appreciated private foot bath, with clean water 3 times a day. We visited during the rainy season and were not lucky, because the high waves did not make it possible for us to snorkel off the beach, but it was very easy to hire a private panga boat and guide to bring us snorkelling further out. To top it off, the hotel offers the best restaurant on the island, the Turned Turtle, which has a separate review.

As the others said, two meals per day are included and beer, soft drinks and juices. Their website provides a lot of details about what is and isn't included on the RAADeal, including the discounts on non-included food and drinks. Re: airport, you have to fly to Big Corn Island and then get a panga from Big Corn to Little Corn, which is about 45-60 minutes. LCBB now offers a private panga service, which worked out great for our family of 4.
Sorry Ross, we just saw this. Check with your airline for the most current requirements. Negative virus test is required to enter Nicaragua and to reenter the United States. There is an efficient testing facility near MGA where you can obtain same day test and results. For traveling around Nicaragua there are no "regulations". La Costena requires you to wear a mask. Our guests arrive to LCIBB with such a look of relief on their face as they step back to some semblance of "normal" when they get to Little Corn Island. Hope we get to see you . Kindly, LCIBB
Sorry just saw this. We have the fastest internet service on LCI. Our Wifi coverage is resort wide and in cabin. Of course it is a tropical island, so things can change quickly and unexpectedly. Although . . . so far, so good :)
Go to our web site littlecornbbcom . Upper left on home page click on "The resort", then "Accommodations", scroll down to List of all cabin styles, click on "Bunkhouse economy cabin". This will take you right to a complete description and pictures. Hope that helps.
