Masaya Hotels - Reviews and Rates

Yesterday I decided to cut off my plaster bandage, started walking and went this morning to Masaya which is famos for it´s big market and the Hammock-factories. Until now I have no pain and I am thinking of a miracle self-healing-something... By now I don´t exactly know to where I want to go tomorrow, but for sure I will have to leave, because m...

We left Laguna De Apoyo at 11.30 and headed for Masaya, tomorrow we will travel to Ometepe. Some more photos to follow soon.......................

The Oasis had a large group coming and I had to move dorms for a night. I decided that as long as I needed to pack my stuff I might as well take a little trip and decided to go to Laguna Apoyo near Masaya. The Craters Edge Hostal there runs a shuttle service from Oasis so it was all very easy. After about a half an hour, we had our first very im...

The smell is atrocious; the heat nearly as bad. We´re leaning over what is widely reported as the most active volcano in Central America, looking at the colorful layers of sediment: brilliant orange, green, shiny black, gray, purple...but the smell is awful-stinky and sulfuric.

Le matin, la patronne de la guesthouse te dit que l'aéroport est débloqué do...

I have already sussed out a wild boar tooth for Margs. Alot of the buildings in Nica have been rui...

I spent the weekend in Masaya, the self proclaimed ¨cultural capital¨ of Nicaragua and I was lucky to catch two festivals: La Noche de Aguizotes, a Halloweenesque night parade, and El Toro Venado a day parade celebrating a mix of Indigenous and Spanish traditions. The whole weekend was an eye-opening experience and a good introduction to Nicara...

Got the bus to Volcan Masaya national park this morning. Yet another volcano I hear you saying. I am mildly obsessed by them but particularly want to see lava and this has not been fulfilled as yet. We got the national park bus from the entrance the 5km up to the summit past lava fields and trees with large iguanas on some of the rocks. Were gla...
