Coronavirus (COVID-19): A Message to Our Guests

As the coronavirus (COVID-19) continues to spread around the world, the safety of our guests and staff at Casa de Cooper is top of mind.

To ensure a healthy stay with us at Casa de Cooper, we have implemented the following safety precautions:

~ Our cleaning staff is being extra diligent in disinfecting the property – before guests arrive and after guests depart -- with particular attention to high touch items and hard surfaces. To allow the extra time needed for this enhanced cleaning protocol, we will ensure a minimum of 24 hours between reservations.

~ To limit non-essential contact between staff and guests, we have temporarily suspended our daily housekeeping service except in an emergency.

We recognize these are unsettling times and want you to know that the safety and well-being of our guests and the entire Casa de Cooper team is our top priority. Whether you are traveling now or in the future, we look forward to welcoming you to our little piece of paradise!

Kindest regards,
Sandra & George Cooper

Casa de Cooper's Casita Romantica is a one bedroom villa that can comfortably accommodate between 1 - 3 guests. It is the perfect vacation home for an unforgettable romantic vacation or fun-filled holiday for a family of 3.

Guests of Casita Romantica benefit from the expertise of a professional bilingual meet & greet and concierge who will assist with every aspect of your stay, including pre-arrival planning.

The Space
The spacious master suite - the heart of the home - is located on the upper level of the house. It's outfitted with king bed, ensuite bathroom with a walk-in hot water shower and double vanity. The master suite also benefits from plenty of storage and hanging space and large flat screen TV.

Directly out the front door on the lower entry level is your private patio. You can start or end your day with a dip in the refreshing plunge pool with views across the valley.

Spend the day under the rancho lounging on the deck chairs, swinging in the hammock, napping or reading a good book.

At night grill up the day's catch of mahi-mahi or red snapper, or some of Nicaragua’s famous beef on your North American style gas BBQ.

Inside on the main level of Casita Romantica you'll find a fully stocked kitchen complete with every pot, pan, glass and utensil you might need to create a gourmet meal using fresh local Nicaraguan ingredients.

The comfortable and cozy living room includes an oversized futon, 2 large armchairs and flat screen TV. Indoor dining space is also provided for the evenings you would prefer to sit inside.

Also on this level is a 2nd full washroom with shower and easy access from the pool, kitchen and futon sleeping area.

Built from the material adobe Casita Romantica is a relaxed and comfortable space even during the heat of midday. It's elevation above town results in nearly constant cooling breezes.

Your Casita Romantica vacation includes access to 2 Pelican Eyes community pools. They are located a 5-minute walk from the casita and are open daily from 7 am to sundown.

Cascada Club Restaurant & Bar is located on the lower level of the community and is open Thursday to Sunday from noon to 10 pm.

Other things to note
The last 300 meters of the drive to Casita Romantica is uphill and unpaved. Extra care is required during rainy season, especially for guests arriving in a compact car.

We have an electricity allowance of 30 kilowatts per day. This is a sufficient amount to power the casita with responsible use of air conditioning in the bedroom at night. Electricity consumption over this amount will be charged at a rate of $0.50 USD per kilowatt hour.

We are pet friendly and allow one (1) well behaved dog providing it weighs 20 lbs or less. Pets must be registered at the time of booking.

The Cooper house and the Casita Romantica is everything as edvertised. My wife and 8 year old son truly enjoyed the great views, local shopping and amazing food just 5 minutes away from the house. I like to give a special recognition to Gabriel Zamora, the property manager for being on top of things during our stay. He made sure our pool clean and the the house keepers did a great job daily of our rooms and living areas.

Best in San Juan
We have been coming to San Juan del Sur for 10 years. The Casa Romántica at Casa Cooper was far and away the best place we have stayed. Wonderful views, great kitchen, outdoor space with dining area, lounge chairs, and small private pool. Definitely 5 Star! We definitely plan to return next year and will look no further than “Casa Cooper”.

We stayed at Casa Cooper for our wedding night. Elisha, the property manager, was wonderful. She helped me to plan a surprise for my husband and made our night extra special. The place is spotless and conveniently located.

Beautiful location for romantic anniversary!
As a 30th anniversary getaway, Casita Romanitica was perfect. The bedroom and 2 bathrooms are very spacious and the unit is well equipped. We brought 12 bottles of wine (max allowed by customs) and put it all to good use. The private pool was perfect for us to spend a day doing nothing. Exploring the town was fun - unique shops, loved Simon Says for lunch, bought fresh bread, fruit, and veggies at the Mercado, and fresh fish (filleted as we watched) from the docks, and barbecued most nights on the Romantica deck while enjoying the spectacular sunsets. We took a class at the Choco school in town making our own chocolate –definitely a fun activity, and learned a lot about my favorite food. Yes, it is rainy season, but the views from the house of mountains and valley are amazing with a million shades of green. A hurricane hit the east coast the last few days of our adventure, but after dealing with Irma in Florida, this was easy. The clay packed roads got extremely muddy and we learned it is imperative to have a 4-wheel drive. Most of the main roads are paved, but getting into the mountains was a feat. We tried driving north on the Chocolate Highway, but gave up after 30 minutes. Everywhere we went, the Nicas are wonderful people. Even though we don’t speak Spanish they would always go out of their way to help and we felt very welcome in their country. Gabriel, the Cooper caretaker met us when we pulled in, and was on site every day to answer any questions. He even gave us a tour of the other Cooper units that were empty at the time and it is obvious Casa Cooper is highly maintained. The rest of the Pelican Eyes campus is sprawling and we took advantage of double massages at the spa and a very romantic dinner at the main restaurant overlooking the pool and ocean. Casita Romantica exceeded expectations and we highly recommend it!

Awesome!
Great location, close to town but not too close. Perfectly named Casita Romantica as it is a great spot for a couple! Beautiful place with amazing views! Some construction going on around and in the resort but nothing too disturbing or distracting. The pool is great as are the pools in the resort. We were the only ones in Casa De Cooper so it was nice and private. George was great with his communication and information prior to arrival. Highly recommend this place!

Wonderful home & excellent staff
My husband and I stayed at Casa Romantica for 5 nights and we loved it. The view and the sunsets are amazing! We were walking distant to San Juan Del Sur and if we didn't feel like walking it was easy to get a taxi or have the resort pick us up for a small fee. The house was in excellent condition and kept very clean. We had everything we needed during our stay. We were hoping to stay again on our next visit in November but it is already book. Our loss. We will definetly stay here again. Thank you to the Cooper family for sharing their beautiful home with us. Eddie & Denise

10 stars if I could rate it that way!!!!!!
This is the second year staying at the Casita Romantica. Let me tell you there is no mistake this is heaven on earth. Everything you see in the pictures is that and then some. But to make things even more spectacular the quality of service you get from George and his constituents ia BAR NONE!!! We used the car service George provides from the airport to SJDS and back to Masaya and even that was outstanding. Quality cars great A/C and If you use them as for Evertz as your driver! As you can see I can't say enough great things about this place! Do not pass go... If you are in the fence this is your house! Liz Giddings - Florida

More than wonderful
Where can I start to express how perfect Casita Romantica was. The pictures don't lie; it is heaven on earth. Everything about the place is perfect. The patio with the pool and a great view is just unbelievable. We started everyday there and even if we had stayed in Casita Romantica and its pool the whole week, our vacaction would have been perfect. We did go to beaches and the town, but the true core of the vacation... We spend it the perfect private pool. The pool and so many other things are being taken care of by Gabriel, who works as groundkeeper. He is so nice and welcoming and helpful, always happy to help or answer a question. The same goes for Estella who works as a housekeeper. Always nice and polite. Plus, George and Sandra the owners were always super quick to answer any interrogative e-mail I sent them. I didn't get to meet them, but they were always helpful and nice and... Yes I only have positive things to say about the whole experience. I would recommend this place to everyone; From my best friend to my mom, everybody willl LOVE this place. 10 mins walk to town and the beach ; perfect location. Wonderful view, it is worth the little walk uphill everyday. We always walked up instead of taking taxis, because the walk isnt this long and the pool once you arrive is the best thing in the world. I could go on saying positive things about la Casita, but you get the point. Everybody needs to go there.
