Finca Neblina Del BosqueIn the brilliant cloud forest of Esteli is environmentally friendly and fully sustainable. The farm is 100% solar and a wood burning and bio-gas kitchen. They harvest their own organic food and have crystal clear water pulled from a bicycle-driven well. In addition there are private cabins, a large bed, warm down comforters, and solar hot showers. Also included in a day are three delicious (many vegetarian options) meals with organic refreshments and homegrown coffee.
Posada La SoñadaDoña Corina's place is a haven of quiet. The home-made food is simply a delight. You can walk on a self-guided trail around the farm and watch colibris. There is even a new tree-house to sleep with the birds at about 8m high.
