Beach Towels: We provide beach towels for the number of people that are staying in the house.  Please make sure those towels are there upon your departure.  We will have to charge $30 for each missing beach towel.

Check Out: Check out is at 11:00AM. Please turn off all lights, fans and a/c units and close and lock all windows and patio doors.  Leave the key in the lock box.  We will come by and check on the house to make sure there are no damage to the property and will then refund your security deposit.

Medical care: The Roberto Clemente clinic is located about 15 minutes south of Popoyo. It is staffed by a doctor and a pharmacist and is open from 7:00 am – 4:00 pm on Mondays – Fridays, closes at 12:00 pm on Saturdays and is closed on Sundays. They provide basic medical care, pharmacy services and emergency transportation via ambulance.

Electricity:  Electricity in Nicaragua is very expensive.  Please help us to conserve electricity by turning off A/C’s when you leave the house and/or when the bedrooms are not in use.  Also, electricity in Nicaragua is not always dependable and goes out from time to time due to planned outages and/or problems with the grid.  Ola Popoyo does not have a back-up power system, but we do provide a flashlight as well as battery-powered candles in each room.

Water: Water is a very valuable, yet scarce, resource along the Pacific coast of Nicaragua.  Please make every effort to conserve usage whenever possible.  Ola Popoyo operates on a water pressure system that is powered by electricity, so when the power is out, so is the water.

Money: The Nicaraguan currency is Cordobas, however, US Dollars are accepted anywhere you go as long as they are not torn, written on or worn out. You will most likely get change back in Cordobas. If you use US Dollars, try to stick to smaller bills. There is an ATM at the entrance of La Jolla de Guasacate.
