We spent 3 nights at La Omaja and had a fantastic experience. Our casita was very comfortable and fit our family of 5 (kids 9,11,12) very nicely. The AC was a plus!! The food was very tasty as well. The pool was an especially nice bonus after our fun excursions around the island. They also provided us with transport anywhere... More

My sister and I stayed here for 3 nights while in Ometepe. La Omaja is a nature resort with the most amazing view of Concepcion volcano. The resort has a pool that overlooks the lake and volcano. We stayed in a casita with A/C, cable TV and its very comfortable and clean. The owner, Jamie is very nice and helpful.... More

The Merida area was further out than we thought. However, once we got to La Omaja and saw the pool with its spectacular view, we knew we made the right choice. In fact, with the many things to do on Ometepe, it was sometimes hard to leave the really nice pool; just grab a beer and soak in the lake... More

The Hotel is very nice, the rooms are clean and comfortable. The location is idyllic, the view at the lago und the volcano is a dream, especially from the swimming pool. The resort is quite new and modern. There could be more meals availible at the restaurant, but it is okay for a couple oft days. Prices are fair. A... More

Our time in Ometepe was the highlight of our trip to Nicaragua. La Omaja has a spectacular location, with views over the lake and volcano. We had Cabin #5 with a great view from the porch hammock or chairs. The restaurant has great views also and the food is really good. And the infinity pool . . .well, you'll never... More

This hotel is really nice. It took us a long way to get there, but it was definitly worth it. The hotel has a nice view over the volcanos and the lake and it has a nice ambiance. Only the beds in the room weren't that comfortable..

A very long way to get there but it's really worthwhile. You only reach the resort on an unpaved, very rough road (or better a path) from Ometepe's main ferry terminal. Plan two hours for this drive. The family owned hotel and restaurant overlooks the bay between both volcanos Concepcion and Maderas and offers a direct spectacular view on the... More

After staying one night in Santa Cruz we decided to head to this side of the island - as the bus didn't run until the afternoon we decided to trek it hoping to hitch hike.... not the best idea! The roads are so bad that vehicles are rare. It was a good 2 hour hike in the heat with our... More

We were a group of seven (73, 44, 43, 40, 10, 8 & 6) traveling to Nica for the first time with only one Spanish speaker. After touring Masaya & Granda, we boarded the ferry to Ometepe. A great fun ride with massive diversity and we chatted with people from all over. We had arranged for transport from Moyogalpa to... More

La Omaja really is a little piece of paradise! It's a little remote, but that's part of it's charm. You can do as much as you want or as little as you like. Whatever your choice, the scenery is beautiful and the vibe is relaxing. The view of Conception from the restaraunt and pool area is amazing. Jamie is awesome!... More
