Amazing views, nice private beach and not a lot of people which makes it relaxing. Getting to the place is a bit rough; need to drive around 10km of dirt road. I understand the eco thing going on but, very little privacy in the rooms and extremely noisy at night and in the morning due to the insects and birds. Staff is very friendly!

Excellent balance of luxury and immersion in nature. Key things to know: stunning beach where we never saw more than 2 other guests, the cabanas are open to the wind and sounds of nature but the way they are secured with screens and sealed doors resulted in zero insect visitors (and the wind and cooling unit over the bed provided for a very comfortable temp), and there will be a need to traverse many steps throughout the day. Lastly, the views here are unlike anything we’ve experienced before. If you want a stunning tropical sunset then you can’t do better than Morgan’s Rock

Beautiful and quiet place to be close to nature and relax. Only consideration is that you need to be able to climb some serious stairs to get to some of the cabins, so if you have issues with this, better to ask the staff before reserving.

The property is simply massive and out in the jungle. The hotel is on its own private bay and the rooms have incredible views. The sunsets were epic. And the staff went above and beyond every day I was there with an amazing attitude and a smile. I am a spoiled and discerning traveler and I stay at a lot of Aman, Banyan Tree, Ritz Carlton’s etc. This is an ecolodge so you will find some things are a little different but after spending 7 days here with my wife I can really say I had a special experience at Morgan’s Rock. It’s a unique place that the owners care for with love and the desire to share it with others. There are monkeys, sloths and all kinds of amazing animals also. I never write reviews but in a world saturated with luxury Oceanside hotels my experience there was special and worth writing about. Definitely a place to relax.

The surrounding natural area is fabulous, 3 kinds of monkeys, sloths, owls, raccoons, all easy to spot all over the property. Views are stunning. If you love nature, you’ll love it here. Food/drinks excellent and tour guides are informative and interesting. Shout out to Andy! Horseback ride was a blast, one of the best I’ve ever been on and I’ve been on plenty

Great place! Must go!

Great views! Very clean and modern. Eco lodge that offers a lot and lots of comfort! Staff was friendly and helpful. Even brought room service when I wasn’t feeling well. One of the most spectacular views of the sunset I have seen! The country is very safe but even if you were concerned this is sooo off the beaten track and self sustainable - I would go now while it’s still affordable.

This ecolodge made out trip to Nicaragua. The view from our bungalow was spectacular and the staff knew our names. They found out it was our honeymoon and supposed us with a dinner on the beach lit by tiki torches. The food was some of the best food I have ever had. I would go back in a heartbeat.

Great escape from the busy life!

The staff here is overall one of the best that I have experienced at any place that I've traveled. They are extremely friendly, very relaxed (which rubs off on you), and very attentive to your wants or needs. One of the most beautiful and private beaches that I have ever experienced. My wife commented that its like Fantasy Island.
