I stayed here for three nights in April, and loved every minute of my stay. The hosts are gracious and warm, and the rooms are an excellent value. On top of all of that, the hillside location is nothing short of beautiful. Will definitely return.

Casa de Olas is awesome! the owners and all the staff are so friendly and welcoming. the food is delicious, rooms clean and comfortable, nice atmosphere, excellent happy hour, best view of the sunset, a cheeky little monkey to play with, an adorable cat, shuttles to the beaches, everything you need/want to is here. would recommend it 100%.

Just left Casa de Olas. Had a wonderful time. The staff and owners are friendly and helpful. My husband and I are already trying to figure out when we can return. Hostel is a little out of city but with shuttle and taxis, never a problem going into town. San Juan del sur is great little town by the sea.... More

As someone who has spent over 6 years traveling, staying mainly in hostels... Casa de olas is probably the best I have ever experienced.

We booked for 2 nights and stayed for 4. Now I wished we had not left. It has a hostel feel, but has far more class. The owners and staff contribute to the relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. They know your name after a few hours and go out of their way to make sure you are having a good time.... More

This is truly the most amazing place I have ever stayed at. Fred and Carla treat everyone like family and they both hilarious! They spend time with the guests and the vibe here is very inviting! They have family style dinners at 730 and have a round bar that makes it so easy to talk to people. The infinity pool... More

If you are going to San Juan Del Sur, you must stay at Casa de Olas. Everything about this place is amazing and to really understand this you'll have to visit; however, I'll try to sum it up in this review. Firstly, the Casa is on top of a hill that overlooks the entire town and ocean. The view is... More

I loved Casa de Olas, Fred make you feel like home ! I highly recommended this place.... Amazing sunsets, beautiful views... Paradise !! :) Delicious breakfast and family dinners, the bar was really cool (beers, movies, pool), I really had a great time with my friends from Costa Rica :)

I loved this place! It's beautiful, inexpensive & fun, the food was delicious, and Fred treats all his guests like family. We were traveling between a handful of cities and once we arrived here, we realized that we had struck gold & things couldn't be better, so we stayed until the end of our trip. This is the first place... More
