Morgan’s Rock is located on a 4000-acre expanse of Nicaraguan jungle. Its concept and operation reflects this whimsical feeling of privacy and seclusion. Natural luxury on a private white sand tropical beach, stunning ocean-view bungalows, all within a 4,000-acre jungle define the Morgan’s Rock experience. Morgan´s Rock is a 3 Ocean View Two Bedroom Villas with a private pool and 15-bungalow hideaway on a mile-long picturesque sandy beach, frequented year-round by nesting sea turtles. Nearly half of the vast property is a private reserve. The rest is low-impact agricultural land (a farm called El Aguacate) and sustainable tropical forestland.

ROOMS
15 bungalows and 3 villas constructed of natural materials are tucked away into the lush jungle. A king-size bed and an exterior hanging daybed suspended by thick marine rope highlight the casual luxury you will experience at Morgan’s Rock Ecolodge. The refreshing private pools and stunning ocean views set the relaxed pace for the duration of your stay. All accommodations have been soundly designed to offer shelter from rain, sun, or wind, yet touching as little of the surrounding nature as possible. The location of all the bungalows was chosen based on the least amount of trees to be cut down, in some instances taking advantage of ridding dead trees. Some may even have a tree growing straight through the roof and all enjoy an indoor garden hosting your own private outdoor shower.

Guests are in for a treat when they dine at Morgan´s Rock, whether at their lovely restaurant overlooking the ocean or over a hearty breakfast of handmade tortillas and gallo pinto (rice and beans) down at the farmhouse.
