Nekupe means “heaven” in Chorotega, the language of one of Nicaragua’s native tribes. Surrounded by dense tropical jungle on a 1,300-acre private nature reserve and shadowed by the Mombacho Volcano, Nekupe is a true heaven for guests who prefer tranquility and incredible natural beauty to the buzz of Nicaraguan beachside resorts. Nekupe Sporting Resort and Retreat is Nicaragua’s first countryside luxury resort. It features the main residence and four private villas with large furnished terraces and private staff. The Main Residence has four suites, two swimming pools, a fully equipped kitchen, a dining room, and private staff. Each guest has the use of an ATV, a luxury spa, two tennis courts, the Casa Club lobby lounge, and other gathering areas. Guests are invited to enjoy horseback riding and hiking along the mountain trails, target and clay shooting, and wildlife and bird watching.
