For travellers in search of an experience, nothing says authentic country-living like a stay at a private, working farm. Hosts may offer interactive kid-friendly activities or, for couples, a cosy haven in an original/converted farmhouse. Breakfast is often included — you may be collecting the eggs yourself!
Enjoyed my stay at the Rancho a lot! Very quiet and relaxing location, definitely out of town down the sandy road and past the local family houses. Rural and calm. Breakfast was delicious and room very clean. The hosts were kind and helpful. Offered some information and recommendations about what to do & see on the island, lent a scooter and helped with transport.
Beautiful off the grid experience yet close to the main town.
Rancho Tranquillo was one of my favorite parts of Nicaragua. I cannot wait to come back! Such a great place, wonderful location, a slight walk out of town but I quite enjoyed it as well as being away from the bustle and noise of Moyogalpa. Tons of hammocks, clean and spacious property and dorms.
I really liked the location: close to the town, but you can enjoy the lake right in front of the ranch. The owns are super lovely and help you with everything and make you feel like home.
Everything was perfect. Daniela & Toni are the nicest hosts we met, they are so cute and courteous. The Ranch is beautiful with lovely dogs and some other sweet pets. The rooms were totally clean, so we were totally fine with everything. Breakfast was amazing, too! I only can recommend this Ranch!
Beautiful and relaxing spot along the lake front. Its a 15min walk from the port. Daniela and Tony are kind people with wonderful hearts. They organised us a scooter to rent and a volcano hike with Oscar, who is also lovely. The breakfasts are amazing. The dorm room is clean and each bed has a fan.
The ranch is full of animals and it's a wonderful place.
If you’re looking for a beautiful property away from the hustle this is it! A short 15 min walk down a lakeside road will lead you to Daniella and Tony’s rancho. Amazing prices and phenomenal hosts who will arrange anything you need on the island with a smile. We booked the private cabana which overlooked the lake and semi seasonal pond filled with turtles and beautiful birds. Tranquillo lives up to its name. Thank you so much for our stay!
Daniela and Tony are wonderful hosts. Daniela's breakfasts are amazing! We really enjoyed our stay at the Ranch. Only a 1km walk into Moyogalpa for meals, etc. Lots of interesting conversations, and helpful advice. Power and Internet outages are common, but generally only lasted and hour or two. Excellent value. We are already missing Rancho Tranquillo <3
Rancho Tranquillo is a beautiful place with the most accommodating hosts. The rooms are clean, the beds are comfy and they go out of their way to make sure your stay is the best it could possibly be.
We absolutely loved staying at Rancho Tranquillo. It is right across the lake so you can enjoy swimming and the sunsets. Daniella & Tony are very welcoming and friendly. We had a very delicious breakfast made by Daniella. Their property is also so great, there are all types of animals running around and you can pick fresh mangoes from their mango tree. They were also kind enough to let us leave some of our luggage so that we could rent a scooter more easily and travel around the island.
beautiful land (truly Rancho Tranquillo), and wonderful hosts Daniela and Tony (the best food, made with love).
