About this trip

Join us on this surf + adventure trip in Nicaragua, where you can kick back with warm water waves, the adventure of exploring Nicaragua, and killer company to build kickass memories with.


This all-inclusive package gives you the support and guidance to get to Nicaragua easily where you can explore and surf along the road less traveled.  We coordinate and include your roundtrip transportation between airport and our hotel, offer amazing local, fresh, and delicious meals, and keep you comfortable with A/C, hot showers, and Wifi.


Explore the world-class waves in Nicaragua with us and give yourself the opportunity to reset while leveling up your surf game and kicking back at our 4-star beachside boutique hotel.


Our beachside boutique hotel is immersed in the center of a beachy fishing village along the Emerald Coast of Nicaragua.  Meet friendly locals, walk empty beaches, and see pigs, cows, and goats roaming the streets.  It's that kinda vibe....off the beaten path and surrounded by natural beauty and a slower way of living....good for the soul.  



OUR SPACE/HOTEL:

Our 14-room boutique hotel is equipped with a sparkling pool,A/C, hot showers, and Wifi in every room.  You’ll be able to enjoy travel in a a way that preserves comfortable accommodations without losing the rustic touch of travelling off the beaten path to enjoy what makes Playa Gigante unique.  We have an all-weather multi-use wellness space that is perfect for skate training, yoga/movement, a game of pickleball or cornhole, etc.  It is a simple oasis in the heart of town with friendly staff, comfortable rooms, and an amazing overall vibe that sets you up to vacation right.

OUR FOOD

We have a full-service restaurant + bar to prepare meals and beverages during this retreat. Enjoy fresh, locally-sourced ingredients with delicious options for all dietary needs and preferences.  Experience delicious tropical fruits, fresh caught fish, local produce, and a thoughtfully crafted menu to keep you satisfied.

THE COMMUNITY OF PLAYA GIGANTE

 A colorful fishing village off the beaten path, El Gigante is located just over an hour north of San Juan Del Sur on Nicaragua's beautiful Pacific Coast. 


The town is aptly named “big foot” when translated from Spanish to describe the gentle green foothills that meet the ocean with such ease. A town filled with untouched beaches, roaming farm animals, and dirt pathways; you’ll quickly remember the importance of slowing down and to embrace living simply.  


The lifestyle and culture here very much embodies the phrase “Take it Easy”. Arriving here feels like taking one long exhale and a chance to just be. 

HOSTED BY LORENZO + ROOM TO ROAM

Lorenzo's passion for surfing, living stoked, and sharing the stoke is clear and evident in all his interactions, which is why there is an amazing crew of people to enjoy this epic trip!  Lorenzo has been hosting and leading surf trips/retreats with Room to Roam since 2020 and works perfectly in sync with Room to Roam and the community of Playa Gigante!  Get ready to enjoy this amazing week kickin' back and enjoying tropical waves, vibrant community, and some time to do whatever you please.

I had the most relaxing and beautiful time in Playa Gigante with Room to Roam! The beds/room was comfy, the pool was refreshing, the food was delicious and the excursions were amazing (especially the tortilla + cheese making!). Kate + her team are so organized and helpful (and fun!). Hope to be back soon! Thank you!!

Our stay at Room to Roam in Playa Gigante was extraordinary. It started with their transportation from the Managua airport to Playa Gigante - it was seamless and our driver was great and made us feel comfortable at all times. When we arrived we had our first delicious meal at Room to Roam made with fresh, local, and super tasty ingredients by their kitchen staff. Every following meal was similarly exquisite whether it was breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Throughout our stay, the staff was amazing, friendly, open, and even ready to teach us some Nica slang. The vibe at Room to Roam is very comfortable and safe. It is a great spot to just relax or pack your day with activities. We did a little bit of both. Kate was extremely communicative and organized, and tailored the excursions and activities to our preferences. Starting the day with some yoga or some exercise additionally allowed us to relax and fully absorb the Room to Roam and Playa Gigante experience. Our excursions were to Laguna de Apoyo, the Masaya volcano, cooking class with locals, and horseback riding (a few of the many possibilities). I can fully recommend all of these activities. The village of Playa Gigante is a chill mix of locals and visitors (very few tourists). The landscape is breathtaking - offering beautiful beaches and opportunities to take walks, ride the waves, or even to explore the area on horseback. It is worth noting that we felt taken care of by the staff at all times. This trip was unforgettable!

I can’t say enough about my wonderful experience with Kate, Ashley, Lorenzo and the whole staff at Room to Roam! This trip was truly magical. I was a little nervous to travel for the first time since COVID. Kate took such great care ushering me in to Nicaragua. I was very stressed at home prior to leaving and Kate kept taking things off my plate as I prepared to leave. Upon arrival we were greeted so warmly by the staff. I was instantly relaxed. Marco’s truly does make the BEST passion fruit margarita on the planet! My intention was surf and boy did I fall back in love with surfing, but I am really walking away with so much more- a complete reboot for my body, mind and soul! I’ll be back again soon! PS the food is out of the this world! Every single meal…. Mouth watering!
