Mukul Resort

Along a four mile stretch of the Emerald Coast of Nicaragua, within a tropical oasis sits the gorgeous Mukul Resort. Mukul manages to perfectly mix barefoot chic and luxury glamour without any pretension. Run by five generations of the Pellas family, upon arrival you will receive a warm welcome and be treated as a personal guest.

Each of the 37 guest accommodations are the definition of space and privacy, the gorgeous design beautifully complimenting the natural surroundings. Even the smallest room offering, the bohios, are decked out with a marble floor bathroom, a sweeping wooden deck with a private plunge pool and a veranda with a plush day bed. The floor-to-ceiling windows capture the stunning views of the Pacific Ocean, bringing the refreshing nature into the serene room.

The beach villas offer all this along with the additional treats of his and her vanity rooms, both with monsoon showers and soaking tubs, a wrap-around deck, a private swimming pool, an outdoor lounging palapa and a wonderful secret garden. The artwork of the rooms has been purchased from Nicaragua’s artists, creating a quirky and individual collection for each room.

The hotel’s spa consist of six private casitas perched on the highest point of the resort, which all offer blissful treatments following a different theme from Thai massage, Moroccan-style hamman to the Indian Ayurveda rituals. Spend your days making the most of the 18 hole golf course, surrounded by breathtaking mountain views, or learn how to surf on the waves of the Pacific Coast.

Mukul, meaning ‘secret’ in Mayan, is a stunning beach hideaway you will find hard to leave.
