El Zopilote Hotel
All of the rooms are basic but cosy with shared compost toilets and shared showers. All beds have mosquito nets.
El Zopilote Permaculture Farm/hostel is a backpackers hostel and a permaculture farm at the same time. We offer various types of hospitality like private rooms, dormitories, camping areas and hammocks. We are in the Nicaraguan Ometepe Island, on the jungle slopes of the volcano Maderas 30km from the port town of Moyogalpa, between Santa Cruz and Balgue .
We organise many activities like free yoga , permaculture courses, cacao ceremonies, volcanoes tours, massages , workshops and lots of other activities.
Guests can enjoy the on-site farm to table restaurant which serves fair priced plates coming straight from the garden, open all day; and a pizzeria open every Tuesday and Saturday night from 6pm with fire shows, dancing, natural cocktails and fun. There is free Wi-Fi in the restaurant area.
Bring a flash light for the night, there are lights in all the huts but the footpaths that connect them have few lights to keep the habitat more natural.

Reviews of El Zopilote
Incredible energy, people, jungle surroundings and a lot to do locally! Saturday market closeby, Chocolate Paradise, lake swims & pizza nights twice a week at Zopilote. Have definitely found our forever home in this community & this now our 3rd time back to visit Beautiful place to spend the pandemic or Christmas in the jungle!
Strong feeling of community at a place that truly embodies eco-ethics at an affordable price, from their composting toilets to their permaculture farm and restaurant to their natural buildings. Come for a weekend, accidentally stay for months!

Complicated access, poor and classist care… very nice place for spiritual retreat or other similar activity; for a family or people who want comfort I do not recommend it…
