Six Bedroom, One Acre, Playa Maderas Oceanfront Estate on one Acre- $1.25 Million
Six Bedrooms
Five and a Half Bathrooms
4,559 Square Meter / One Acre Oceanfront Property
Asking $1.25 Million
Set directly above the iconic breaks of Playa Maderas, this cliff-front estate is the kind of property that almost never comes available. Spanning 4,559 square feet across multiple structures, it offers the scale, privacy, and positioning that’s increasingly impossible to find along Nicaragua’s Pacific coast.
The main home is a Two Story colonial-style residence featuring Four Bedrooms, generous living spaces, and large folding wooden doors that open fully to the ocean breeze. A dedicated office captures uninterrupted Pacific views, creating a workspace that’s hard to match anywhere in the region. Just steps away, a separate Two Bedroom guest casita provides complete privacy for visitors, while a caretaker’s cottage adds flexibility for staffing or additional use. The layout works seamlessly whether you’re living full-time, hosting extended family, or operating a high-performing vacation rental.
What really defines this property is its connection to the ocean. A private pool and expansive wooden terrace sit perched above the cliffs, overlooking the surf at Playa Maderas. From here, you can check the waves with your morning coffee, walk down your own access to the sand, and finish the day watching the sunset from a hammock — all without leaving your property. The surrounding tropical forest brings constant wildlife, from howler monkeys to tropical birds, creating a setting that feels completely immersed in nature.
From an investment standpoint, this location sits in one of the strongest rental corridors near San Juan del Sur. Cliff-front homes with pools, direct beach access, and unobstructed ocean views consistently command premium nightly rates. Demand remains steady year-round from surfers, retreat groups, and families. With the completion of La Costanera Coastal Highway, you’re also just minutes from town — making access easier than ever without sacrificing privacy.
Nearby, you’ll find some of the area’s most popular spots including Hush Maderas, Machete Market & Cafe, and Espejo Beach Club, while schools, medical services, and full amenities are all within a short drive.
Properties like this don’t come up often. Large-scale oceanfront compounds with direct surf access, multiple structures, and this level of privacy are nearly impossible to recreate — the land simply isn’t available anymore.

Hey guys, If you’re looking to get a house in Nicaragua I highly recommend Joel. He’s the man.
My name is Eric and I just wanted to share a quick comment on my experience working with Joel. He actually handled both the purchase and sale of my property. Both were closed smoothly, completely remotely.
