As soon as you arrive, you’ll feel this house, in the center of San Juan del Sur, is not just a vacation home; instead, you’re walking straight into a family tradition.
This uniquely designed four-bedroom house, built in 1972, and recently renovated, is the perfect place for friends and family members who want to reconnect, or for business partners to align their ideas and develop their visions.
This is not a house breathing the rawness of Nicaragua, neither is it competing with the luxury American style homes that are plenty to be found in San Juan del Sur. Rather, this house has a very unique style.
Combining breezy beach vibes of white planked-wood ceilings and simplicity, with a modernistic touch created by the use of bright primary colors, abstract paintings, most of which are painted by the owners, and subtle art. It’s your favorite art gallery being brought into the comforts of your own familiar living room.
Envision home-cooked meals over good conversations at the large dining table, or firing up the BBQ while sipping cocktails at the connecting poolside, sheltered by the shade of a local Guaiacum (guayacan) tree.
The characteristic small stairs throughout the house connect a total of seven split levels, making each space flow smoothly into the next, while creating airflow, privacy and integrity at once.
The different levels create many intimate sitting areas, leading up to the top and most authentic part of the house: a captain’s bridge-shaped area, overlooking a stunning front view of the bay. Look out the side windows and you’ll have a birds’ eye view on daily life in the picturesque streets of San Juan del Sur.
In contrast to the artistic common areas of the house, the bedrooms are clean and simple-styled, to enjoy a good rest overnight and wake up with a fresh and reset mind in the morning.
The same cleanliness and simplicity is used in the bathrooms. With hot water and AC, full comfort is provided.
Store away your laptop and relax.
Casa 72 is a place for people who recognize life as an art.
Like fine wine, the character of this house is developing more and more over time.
