About this property

Situated on the rim of a crater volcano 527m above sea level, so whilst having almost 365 days of sunshine it is also cooler than many areas in Nicaragua.
It is a very green and lush area with lots of wildlife and areas to walk and you can often to see several types of monkeys, butterflies, and many different types of birds.
Catarina is an easy town to live in if you do not have a car as everything is accessible on foot, there is an also an abundance of tuk tuks (moto taxis) that you can take very cheaply around the town.
There are excellent transport links from the entrance of the town (where the round about is) to all over the country via bus.

Masaya Volcano 20 minutes.
