From Our Happy Guests
Hermosa experiencia, primera vista fue corta pero tan maravillosa que fui por la segunda visita por todo 1 mes, es mágico este sitio, mismo lugar diferentes paisajes y las tormentas Wao es MÁGICO.
I loved staying at this oceanview hotel in Nicaragua. The chill and relaxing vibe, along with stunning sunsets every evening, made this the perfect getaway. The surf and yoga packages were fantastic, and the great restaurant on-site served the most delicious food.
I love this place! Best view ever, good food and super friendly staff!
I’ve stayed in many places, but this is truly the best hotel in Popoyo. Not only is it an eco hotel in Nicaragua, but it also offers clean and cozy rooms, live music and events, and a friendly staff that made us feel at home. The unforgettable stay we had here makes me want to come back soon.
This eco hotel in Nicaragua was beyond amazing. The chill and relaxing vibe, combined with friendly staff and comfortable rooms, made us feel completely at ease. The surf and yoga packages were a highlight, and the stunning sunsets from the pool were unforgettable.

Our experience at this Nicaragua beachfront hotel was unforgettable. The comfortable rooms were spotless, the friendly staff went above and beyond, and the infinity pool with ocean view was the highlight of our trip. If you’re looking for a laid-back atmosphere and a local experience, this is definitely the best hotel in Popoyo.
My wife and I had the most wonderful experience at Magnific Rock Surf and Yoga Retreat. From the moment we arrived, the service felt warm and genuine, making us feel completely at home. The food was absolutely amazing — the nachos were rich, flavorful, and perfect for sharing, while the red snapper was fresh, perfectly cooked, and one of the best meals we’ve enjoyed together. The blue margarita as the cocktail of the day was such a fun surprise — vibrant, refreshing, and unlike anything we’ve tried before.What truly made our time here unforgettable were the breathtaking sunsets we watched hand in hand from the cliffside. As the sky lit up with colors, we felt like we were in the perfect place at the perfect moment. Combined with the delicious food, creative drinks, and excellent service, Magnific Rock gave us memories we’ll always cherish. We can’t wait to come back.
Esta muy bello la atención muy buena y la dirección muy accesible
Fuimos a cenar con mi familia y la comida estuvo increíble. Pedimos churrasco, New York y Pasta para los niños. Todo estuvo divino, la atención estuvo excelente, precios justos por lo servido y la atmósfera del restaurante, incomparable. Ningún lugar de la zona ofrece una vista tan hermosa. Para finalizar pedimos un tres leche y un brownie para compartir, nos fuimos felices y convencidos de regresar. Felicidades a todo el staff!
Aerial yoga with Maria at Magnific Rock was a relaxing and transformative experience! She was an amazing instructor and the ocean view yoga deck was very tranquil. I highly recommend if you’re looking for yoga in Nicaragua.
My second home - This place carries endless memories; celebrations, parties, sunset surf, morning yoga - It's an adult theme park that has everything with unmatched views
Venimos a tomar algo y disfrutar del lugar. Tomamos unas cervezas victorias bien frías y unos nachos como recomendación del mesero. Gran acierto, estaban super ricos.Las vistas son espectaculares de la playa. Tienen todo super bonito y cuidado. En la zona de abajo para huéspedes supongo tienen piscina y barbacoa para hacer asados. Si vienes por la zona tienes que pasarte.
I booked a last minute surf package. Brian and Jess take care of everything. 5 star service. The airport pickup was perfect, he had a sign with my name on it. Super easy. I asked to stop for a beer. Very accommodating. My very private room had an incredible 180* view of beginners bay to world famous popoyo. The balcony was awesome. The food and drinks were incredible and my pro surfer instructor Hector was amazing. He takes you to the best breaks at optimal tide and puts you in the perfect position to catch more waves than you can handle. Locals get priority so I got the best waves of my life. The photos they took were great and the massage was the best of my life. The boat trip to Lances Left was spectacular! This is the nicest place around. Don’t hesitate. It is reasonably priced and the best surf experience ever. Off shore winds all day with consistent swells.All inclusive surf camp. Surfing Nicaragua. Uncrowded spots. Epic surf. Best surf camp. Perfect for beginners to experts.
I am so glad I decided to choose Magnific Rock for my stay in the area.- On arrival at the hotel, it makes an immediate impact, as the views of the surrounding beaches and surf breaks from the peninsula location are absolutely stunning.- The team are really friendly and helpful - Lisa, Ronnie and all, are great at making you feel welcome and accommodating your needs - I ended up extending my stay 3 times.- My apartment room had the most incredible view over the bay, where you could sit and watch the surf all hours of the day, ending with amazing sunsets. Added to that, it is a short walk from the hotel to the Beginner's Bay, with the other more advanced breaks of the main Popoyo break in walking distance too.- Brian, the Surf Director was awesome. I am an infrequent middle aged surfer, and he was really good at helping to build up confidence, improve my skills, and push me to progress my capabilities - I caught more waves in my sessions with him, than ever before. Great attitude, relaxed approach, and a nice guy - and would highly recommend scheduling sessions with him.I will definitely be back - best spot in Nicaragua 😉
We had an amazing vacation staying at Magnific Rock. All the staff were exceptional and so accommodating. Our balcony had breath taking views and we did not have a want that was not accommodated. Between the surfing, yoga, and exploring we had the best vacation! We are looking forward to planning our next trip to Magnific Rock.
Had an amazing experience at Mag Rock. Staff was incredibly attentive to all our needs. Brian and Jess took me to score some amazing waves, provided coaching and photos. I usually go to new surf spots blind but having them along was a cheat code as they told me when, and where to score waves in the area.The food was excellent and when we asked about going to Granada, the GM Martin took us personally and guided us around the the city. We fell in the love with the place and will definitely be back soon.
Atención de gran calidad, comida riquísima y lugar con perfecta vista al mar. Lo recomiendo

My wife and I got married on July 12th. Everything was perfect, the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. We had a full- service destination wedding. They took care of everything, from guest accommodations on-site to catering and cocktails. Our wedding planner, Karina, did such an amazing job.The Beachfront reception area was breathtaking.If you are looking for a beach wedding venue in Nicaragua, this is it!!! 🥳💍
Took my first aerial yoga class at Mag Rock in Popoyo and it was incredible! Maria was my teacher and she was absolutely amazing—super encouraging, clear with her instructions, and made the class so fun. I was a beginner to aerial yoga, but it still felt totally accessible while being challenging in the best way. I got such a deep stretch and even did a few inversions/tricks I never thought I’d be able to do! The view alone was worth it—breathtaking ocean and waves right in front of you, plus the most perfect breeze coming through while you move. There were some experienced yogis in the class too and it still felt like the perfect vibe for all levels. Honestly such a cool, unique experience. Highly recommend!
I had both dinner and breakfast here, and I was truly impressed!! The food was delicious, the view is absolutely breathtaking, and the whole vibe is just perfect. The staff is incredibly kind and welcoming, it really makes a difference! You can feel the good energy as soon as you arrive. Highly recommend this place! Thank you Magnific Rock for such a beautiful experience! 🌅💛
The food was so good and the view is SO BEAUTIFUL! Definitly recommand!
Wonderfull place , the view is so pretty and the food AMAYZING ! Really recommended
The view is the main attracted, it’s breathtaking! We went twice, once for dinner and once for breakfast, everything is tasty and delicious!
Magnific Rock, near Popoyo was a perfect choice for an all inclusive surf retreat! The surfing and coaching couldn’t have been better, Brian and Jess took great care of us. Our room had a balcony overlooking the ocean and popular surf spot, Beginners Bay. The beds were comfortable, the air conditioning and the shower worked great. We enjoyed the yoga classes very much and the sunset views were stunning!
Best surf camp in Nicaragua. I booked the All inclusive surf package and was amazed. Deffinatly will come again.I hear they do Nicaragua destination weddings.And yoga retreats aswell
I came to Magnific Rock on a solo surf trip with no expectations and had the best time! Brian and Jess were my surf guides and made my trip! We adventured to some fun surf spots and they encouraged me through some large swells. My stay was relaxing and the food memorable. Also learned a fun new pool game. My getaway was 5 stars for sure!
Magnífic Rock es un restaurante y Hotel con un escenario único , sus platillos son los más exquisitos , atención profesional y de calidad. Tú experiencia en vacaciones será inolvidable#NicaraguaEsWuuuuaaao🏄🤽
1st trip to Nicaragua and after doing my own research, I picked Magnific Rock due to its location and amenities. I also booked a surf package that gave me 2 awesome guides (Brian and Jess) and they put me on the best surf and were there to answer any questions and show me around! They made my stay/trip well worth it and I will use them again when I return!
Spent a wonderful week surfing in Popoyo with the Mag Rock team. Brian and Jess took such good care of us - finding great waves, offering specific and targeted coaching, and being great hosts!Our group (5 women) had a wide range of skills and I was a bit nervous that I would hold back the rest of the group (still working on my pop-ups…). However Brian managed to push me into waves while they both offered tips to my more advanced friends on their timing and technique. Combined with really helpful video analysis, we all made significant gains - despite our varied starting points!We had two sessions a day for six days across a variety of breaks. Some steps from the hotel (Beginner’s Bay and both sides of Mag Rock itself), some a short truck ride away (including two amazing sunset sessions at Gavilán), and two boat trips. We appreciated the variety and learned a lot by exploring a range of different waves.The Mag Rock surf package included hotel (due to holiday availability we spent the first couple of nights at a sister hotel La Jolla before moving to the Penthouse at Mag Rock), and three meals a day. The staff at both sites were very accommodating and welcoming - shuttling us around and making sure we had a chance to explore the area!All in all a great trip. I’ll be sure to look up the Mag Rock team next time I’m in Nicaragua!
Fantastic week long Nicaragua surf trip at Magnific Rock in Popoyo, thanks to our amazing hosts & guides, Brian and Jess!One thing that really elevated the experience was the complimentary video call with us beforehand to discuss what we were looking for out of the trip. That was an unexpected but nice touch.We were blessed with amazing waves and perfect weather, and our guides went above and beyond to anticipate our needs and accommodate all of our requests. The location is perfect for beginner to intermediate surfers (literally in front of Beginner's Bay), and they drove us to other really fun, more advanced spots and took us on two boat trips.We had a few issues with facility / maintenance, but the staff was attentive and Brian & Jess were great advocates for us throughout our stay.We all caught so many waves, received video analysis, and were given pointers on how to improve. Highly recommend for all levels–these guys really listen to what you want and will show you the best time! We also had a great experience with Taylor and Tomas at La Jolla, a sister property close by.I'm usually the group trip planner, and I have to say, putting everything in Jess & Brian's hands made for the most relaxing and action-packed vacation ever! Muchas gracias!!
The location can’t be beat and the surf package was an awesome experience. They really went above and beyond too make it a great trip
Muy bonito lugar, la vista es hermosa. Solo como recomendación, no vayan en vehiculo SEDAN, de preferencia camioneta, porque una parte del recorrido es un poco pedregoso nada más, el resto es un 100.
Sus habitaciones tienen una vista al mar sensacional! ❤️ El restaurante tiene variedad y la especialidad es mariscos.. Tan solo bajar unas escaleras y ya se está en la playa
Choosing to visit and stay at the Magnific Rock surf camp in Nicaragua is one of the decisions I’ve made!! I booked the all inclusive surf package which included room, board, non stop good food, daily surfing, adventures, boat rides and boat fishing to name a few. Honestly though, the best part has been the staff who have gone out of their way both in coaching me in the waves and out of the water. I would recommend Nicaragua and the surf camp here at Mag Rock to anyone looking to catch waves, sun rays and good vibes. I will definitely be back!
Magnific Rock truly lives up to its name! The accommodation here is top-notch, offering comfort with the most stunning views in all of Nicaragua. Waking up to the sight of the ocean and the dramatic cliffs was an experience we'll never forget. The on-site restaurant was a pleasant surprise—delicious food with fresh ingredients, and a menu that catered to all tastes. Whether you're looking for adventure or relaxation, this place has it all. Highly recommended!
I recently went to a retreat here at Magnific rock and it was a week I’ll never forget. Their view and location is one of a kind! Ella was our retreat manager and she made sure that our experience was once of a kind. I’ve never met anyone more organized and talented. The aerial deck overlooking the ocean was absolutely stunning. The beach rig was also one of a kind, perfect height for silks. They had an amazing chef that catered to our group’s tastes and allergies, Chef Jim was so very talented. The staff were very friendly and kind… even took the extra step to remember our names and the drinks we liked. I would love to come back one day!
We didn't stay in the hotel but we went there a few times to have a drink during the sunset.The views are stunning and the menu is good.You can use the swimmingpool or play pool while you have a cocktail.Definitely a bar I would recommend if you are in the area.Free wifi
I was hesitant in writing a review about Magnific Rock, due to pure selfishness. We had such a special experience that we wanted to hide it, like buried treasure. We had no expectations going in, and had friends for life coming out. The surfing was as good as it gets. The staff, the community, even the dogs will remain forever in our hearts. Billy and Jared are rock stars - accomplished and professional, yet humble and always stoked - the true embodiment of surfing.
I had the most amazing stay and experience at mag rock. Our room was clean, cool, and comfy and right outside we had an amazing view of the beach and sunset. Billy was an unbelievable guide who arranged everything, including boat trips to incredible surf spots and amazing food experiences. He also told stories and educated me on the history of land which was an awesome part of my experience. I would definitely recommend that everyone who is visiting Nicaragua stay at mag rock!
Daily yoga and coffee here was an absolute highlight of our trip. The space is incredible and the coffee was really good!
Billy and the team at Magnific Rock were incredible. We booked the all inclusive surf package and it was everything we hoped for and more. The hotel has a great selection of boards to choose from including epoxy long and short boards as well as fiberglass performance boards depending on your skill level. The waves were consistently great and our surf guide Dylan checked the weather and waves with us every morning to make sure we surfed the best breaks! The rooms were great and had a view of the surf break right from our porch, the food was incredible and they had amazing vegetarian options. One of the days we took a boat trip to an awesome wave that is only accessible via boat, followed by a truly authentic Nicaraguan meal at one their local friends homes.If you are considering a surf trip to Nicaragua and want relax and let someone tell you when and where to surf to have a great experience, this is the place.
I highly recommend Magnific Rock Surf Resort and its All Inclusive Surf Package! I had never surfed before. With all the coaching from my surf instructor Dylan and the Mag Rock Surf Coordinator Billy, I gained the confidence to return home, buy a board, and keep improving my surfing. After only 4 sessions over 4 days (I opted for a single longer surf session each day rather than 2 surf sessions each day), I was able to pop-up, and I caught a few of the waves with only verbal coaching from Dylan. Billy’s video taping session was hugely useful! The video let us see what I need to work on next. My time at Mag Rock definitely got my psyched to buy my own surfboard and continue improving back at home. Dylan was a great coach both on land and in the water! Besides pop-ups, he taught me a huge amount about the water and handling a surfboard, including how to: safely enter the water and get out to the line-up; enter a line-up; read the water to see waves and sets forming; strap a board onto the roof of a car; and all sorts of other great info. Dylan’s guidance continued over lunch each day along with sharing life stories. Dylan and Billy were great to hang out with. Billy was always available to answer questions and work with me before I arrived, during my time at Mag Rock, and afterwards. The studio room I had was comfortable and worked perfectly. The food in the restaurant was fresh and delicious. And, I appreciated the airport pick-up. The Mag Rock Surf Resort All Inclusive Surf Package is great!
My week stay at Magnific Rock was fantastic. The food was absolutely amazing, massages were restorative and relaxing, and the walk from the rooms down to the beach or to the markets were super fun and easy. The staff was just so warm and friendly- they made you it feel just like a big family! I will 1000% be back and I can’t wait!
Not sure I knew what I was looking for… what I found exceeded any expectation I had, book the trip, you won’t be disappointed!
I just completed a 5-day surf camp at Magnific Rock. Billy, the surf coordinator, was responsive and very helpful throughout both the booking process and my stay. Before my trip, I had only taken a couple of surf lessons, so the hotel's location right next to Beginner's Bay was perfect for me as a beginner surfer. As a first-time solo traveler, I felt comfortable and welcomed. The room was clean and air-conditioned, and all the staff were very friendly. In addition to surfing, the hotel offered fun classes like aerial yoga. The view from the hotel, especially during sunset, was just amazing. I left the surf camp feeling much more confident in the water. The surf lessons were excellent because I had my own instructor, and the lessons were tailored to my own level and pace. I can't wait to go back!
Paradisíaco. Una muy buena experiencia en el restaurante.
I can't say enough about the staff and hospitality we experienced here. The four of us stayed for a few days, travelled around Nicaragua and then headed back because we decided this place was too good not to go back.Billy and Jered were absolutely amazing! They literally went above and beyond to make sure we had the best time. I am not kidding when I say the boat trip was probably one of the best travelling experiences of my life. Our group had all different levels of surfing abilities and Jared was the perfect couch for the beginners to the more advanced, either telling you were to sit and how the wave breaks or will be right by your side (the man also has some crazy stories, you'll learn a thing or two about the area!)Then after the surf we jumped back in the boat and went fishing. You can tell Billy genuinely loves what he does and it just makes the experience so much better, he's also a plethora of knowledge so you really know you're in good hands. We caught some fish including some white tuna (which I hear is quite rare!) and then the chef prepared it that night, definitely a check off my bucket list!!The staff there are also just the most wholesome, some are still learning English so it's an excellent opportunity to brush up on your Spanish! They were very helpful and always smiling, excellent vibes.We were recommended by friends up here in Canada to head down there and now I'm recommending this place to everyone else!
Absolutely amazing! Check the waves from your balcony, surf your brains out with breaks all over, cool off in the AC, get in the pool or play pool, and enjoy a cold crisp Tona and top notch meal to round it off. The local staff, amazing. Billy, the surf coordinator, amazing. Jared, the surf guide, amazing. The food, amazing. The view and location, amazing. Mag Rock made everything about our trip straightforward, convenient, and an absolute blast. Not to mention boat trips, fishing, yoga, horses, and more. 100% would go again.
Our group of 4 stayed here with the surf package and it didn't disappoint! Billy and Jared's love for the area and surf spots was incredible and definitely rubbed off on us. We liked it so much that after visiting Ometepe and Granada we decided to head back to Mag Rock to close out our Nicaragua trip. We couldn't get enough of the views, sunsets and waves.Excellent value for money especially if you want a stress free vacation. The food at Magnific Rock was 10/10 and so were the staff. The views were incredible and you can watch all the happenings in beginners bay from there.The highlight of the trip for me was the boat trip. We headed out to Lance's Left and caught some waves in the morning. Jared was making sure we were all catching waves and Billy was down the line with a camera getting some great footage of us. Afterwards we headed out to the open ocean for some fishing. It's always a good sign when you're guide loves what they do and Billy clearly loves fishing. We wrestled a few tunas into the boat and brought them back for the chef's at Mag Rock to slice up for dinner. An absolutely perfect day.Overall I'd highly recommend Magnific Rock, our group had a mix of surfing abilities and the crew there made sure everyone got the most out of their experience.
Enjoyed an incredible week at Magnific Rock! Billy, Poloma and Dylan were amazing surf guides and coaches. They took us out to several different breaks and offered great coaching and support. Marco was always kind and helpful in the restaurant. The room we had was not great but if you get a newer room they are certainly much nicer and more comfortable. When our AC stopped working, there was someone onsite who fixed it right away. You can’t beat this location!
I spent a week at Mag Rock and it was an incredible week. Everything about this week was perfect. I did the week long surf program and it was exactly what I wanted. First the property is gorgeous. It’s about a 2 hours drive from the airport which is fun because you get to drive through Nicaragua and see the culture. When you get there it’s like you have arrived in paradise. It’s on top of a cliff that overlooks the ocean. It’s breathtaking! I stayed in a suite that was awesome. The balcony was the best part. I would sit out there in between surf sessions and enjoy the view and would enjoy sunrises and sunsets out there. The food was delicious. Smoothies were great before hitting the water.The best part was the surfing and people. I met some awesome people that I was able to surf with all week. But the best was my two surf guides Billy and Dylan. They were so patient and comprehensive on teaching us how to be good surfers. I’ve taken surf lessons all over before and people just want you to stand up. They taught us about surf etiquette and how to read waves and techniques. I had a million questions and they answered all of them. If you’re thinking of coming here DO IT! You won’t regret it. I know I’ll be back!
Since there is no category that seems fitting, we want to give a special shout out to our surf instructor: Jared, the man, they myth, the legend:🌊Jared knows his surf spots in and out. He knows every wave and rock and we were catching twice as many waves as anyone else. We almost felt sorry for them 😉 (No we didn't)🏄♀️Jared never ever runs out of energy: if you don't end your surf ses yourself, it will be the sunset or no one.🌊In between waves it never gets boring. Fortunately, Jared has lived through 12+ different lives or so and always has a fun story to tell.🏄♂️When you're w/ Jared, there's no chance of going incognito. Literally EVERYONE knows him and wants to call him their friend🌊Jared helped and pushed (yep, he never leaves w/o giving you a lil homework assignment) us to take our surfing skills to the next level. From day one, we went from riding white water waves to catching and surfing green waves only. Not to mention our improvement on timing, pop-ups, stance or reading the ocean itself. Surfing never felt so easy breezy :)🏄♂️Watching Jared teach, you know what”finding your purpose“ really is about. Every wave we caught, his smile got bigger and wider as if it was him catching the waves himself. That's what real support feels like🌊The surf package comes w/ an epic boat day experience, video analysis and so much more you'll be dreaming of for a long time🏄♀️Also the waves in Popoyo are incredible and one of the most consistent we've ever surfed (next to the ones in Bali, Muizenberg - Cape Town, Portugal..)We usually don't write reviews, but since Jared is THE best teacher we ever had, we would have felt like fools if we didn't.Thanks a million for all the fun and good times.We hope to be back soon.🤙🏻
I had an amazing time at Magnific Rock. Billy, the surf instructor was super cool and knowledgeable when it came to riding waves. The rest of the staff and experiences were above and beyond. The sunsets and epic coast lines make it a hard place to leave. I can’t wait to get back out there.
An absolutely must go location. I honestly can’t fault this place and the people that work and run it!Billy and Brian, the two surf guides were unreal and helped me develop my skills so easily.It’s hard not to write a cheesy and corny review where I say everything was great but it’s true. This surf camp and it’s location is spot on.By far my favourite place in all of Nicaragua.
I had the most amazing time during my stay at magnific rock. Everyone was so incredibly welcoming and attentive. Massimo greeted us and made sure that we had everything we needed at all time. Food was amazing and we were graciously attended by all staff, they were accommodating for my vegetarian diet. I thoroughly enjoyed the yoga classes daily and took an amazing Aerial class with Ella. My friend and I also took surf lessons with Billy who was an excellent teacher and had us catching many waves in the beautiful beach in Popoyo. The view was perfect, everyone at the resort was incredible and I can not wait to come back!
What a magnificent experience! I will never forget our beautiful time here at Magnific Rock. My girlfriend and I booked 4 nights and five days under the yoga package and added surf sessions on top. Best decision ever. We ate like princesses and had a spectacular view of Popoyo from our “Apartamento” accommodation. The food and drinks were incredible. Massimo, the manager, emphasized a family-style experience and we felt so at home even though we were traveling from California. I highly recommend Magnific Rock to first-timers to Nicaragua as we had an experience to be remembered for a lifetime. Ask for Billy for surf lessons and Ella for yoga! They made our trip so much fun. I definitely will be coming back.
We booked in at another place and it was very very unacceptable , so we ended up leaving and Jackson and his excellent manager Alex put us and our party up for the night . One of a kind sunset and morning surfing , paradise ! Thanks
Is in the perfect spot for learning to surf and would highly recommend the surf package to really immerse your self into the learning experience. The staff are all super friendly and they have good knowledgeable surf instructors which will get you from 0 to hero in no time.I fully enjoyed my stay of 3 weeks here and will definitely be coming back.
Beautiful view, a two minute walk down to a great surfing spot, friendly and welcoming staff. All you could wish for in a coastal holiday!
Un lugar para alejarse de todo!!!!La atención de las chicas a la hora del check in muy buena. El chamaquito que atiende el happy hour 100% servicial. La atención de la cena el cheff y los muchachos excelente.En si las habitaciones muy limpias y ordenadas, por ahí nos encontramos a una perrita y a un michito que se sienta a tu lado en especial a la hora de la cena hahahaha.Estamos ansiosos por regresar en familia y pasarla bien.
Had a great stay at Mag Rock for 9 days with some friends from Florida. The waves were exceptional, and the staff were great hosts. They have great all inclusive deals for the surf camp that makes your vacation a breeze, so you can focus on the important parts: surfing!
This place was absolutely AWESOME! Great views and excellent food! All of the staff are extremely helpful and nice! Sick beachy surf vibes - and the waves absolute fire a few steps away - this is the place! 😎. Definitely coming back!
I already can’t wait to come back to Mag Rock, they have great value packages for staying at the surf camp! The waves were awesome and my friends and I had a great time! Highlights from my trip included eating delicious meals with my friends on the beautiful restaurant deck.
I had a magnificent stay at Mag Rock. Dave and Jackson are amazing and caring owners, and you’ll want for nothing while you’re there! The staff are sweet and helpful, though not all speak english, which is a perfect opportunity for me and my English speaking friends to practice our Spanish. The view is breath taking, I stayed for 9 days and it does not get old. The surfing is amazing, quality waves for all types of skill levels, with Nicaragua’s signature offshore winds. Billy who runs the surf camp is an awesome human and guide. I loved my stay at Mag Rock and I cannot wait to come again!
This place is magical!! The pictures online don’t do it justice. The views from Magnific Rock are mesmerizing. The location cannot be beat — you are steps away from one of the main breaks below and can watch people surf from your balcony. And most importantly, the people that work there are the greatest. I did the all inclusive surf package and had 2 amazing surf guides, Billy and Brian. It was the best surf trip of my life. They not only provided great 1:1 coaching that allowed me to significantly progress my surfing skills, but were also awesome guys to hang out with in and out of the water. On the final day, we took a boat trip to Lancer’s Left where I ended the trip with the wave of my life. Thanks for everything guys! I’ll be back soon!
