Luxury Oasis in Town – Hidden Garden Retreat in San Juan del Sur
Tucked discreetly into the heart of San Juan del Sur, just minutes from the beach, restaurants, and local markets, this private luxury oasis offers a rare combination of total seclusion and walkable convenience. Surrounded by lush tropical landscaping, the home feels worlds away from town life while remaining effortlessly connected to everything San Juan del Sur has to offer.
Built in 2016 on a generous 1,113 square meter lot, the property was designed around indoor–outdoor living and year-round comfort. A deep, resort-style swimming pool anchors the outdoor space, framed by sun decks, shaded lounging areas, a poolside gazebo, and mature gardens that create a naturally cool and tranquil microclimate. Whether hosting friends for an afternoon swim or enjoying quiet mornings with coffee and birdsong, the outdoor areas feel both serene and intentional.
Inside, the home opens into a dramatic Great Room with soaring 18-foot ceilings, clerestory windows, and seamless flow to a covered patio and outdoor dining area. The gourmet kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring an oversized island, generous pantry space, and a filtered drinking water system. Two air-conditioned bedroom suites open directly to the gardens, each with its own private bathroom and peaceful outlook. A spacious loft bedroom with a separate entrance and full bathroom adds flexibility for guests, extended family, or potential rental use.
The gardens themselves are a defining feature of the property, professionally designed into eight distinct “garden rooms” connected by walking paths and accompanied by a thoughtfully prepared guidebook. From elevated vantage points, a rooftop terrace offers sweeping views over San Juan del Sur and out toward the Pacific Ocean—an ideal space for sunset drinks or quiet reflection.
Additional comforts include high-end water filtration and storage systems, whole-house ventilation, ceiling fans throughout, and screened windows and doors that enhance airflow while keeping the home cool and comfortable. Secure gated parking, a private caretaker’s casita, and multiple storage bodegas round out a property that is as functional as it is beautiful.
This is a rare opportunity to own a true hidden retreat in town—an elegant, private sanctuary designed for relaxed tropical living in one of Nicaragua’s most vibrant coastal communities.

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.
