Guest Reviews

• Jonathan (8/5): Wundervolles Hotel jedoch mit Servicedefizit - Ein super schönes Hotel mit einem unfassbar tollen Hausriff und einem wunderschönen Strand direkt vor den Hotelzimmern. Stilvoll eingerichtete Zimmer und ein schöner Poolbereich. Leider passt der Sevice, vorallem an der Rezeption, nicht zum Preis der Unterkunft. Zum Großteil nicht kunden- bzw. serviceorientiert. Gegebenfalls sollte man hier entsprechende Schulungen in Betracht ziehen.
• Mehdi (10/5): Amazing stay - Exceptional stay at Yemaya Reefs. I stayed in the beachfront room with a private pool and everything was perfect—stunning views, absolute calm, and great attention to detail. A truly magical experience on Little Corn Island. /
• Karen Lorena (10/5): Ein paradiesischer Ort um die Seele baumeln zu lassen. - Es war mein 2. Aufenthalt und auch dieses Mal wieder perfekt!
• Tom (10/5): -
• Richard (8/5): - Schöne Zimmer das Frühstück war nicht speziell und von der Qunatität her eher wenig. Was mir aber gar nicht gefallen hat, war dass ein so hochpreisiges Hotel für quasi alles zusätzliches Geld verlangte. z.b. für Yoga, für Kayaks, etc Die Lage am Nordende der Insel, bedeutet, dass sie bei Nordwind ein aufgewühltes Meer vorfinden voller Seegras, was das Baden unangenehm macht.

• robert (10/5): Beautiful property on a gorgeous beach. Little piece of paradise. - Plunge pool casita was beautiful! Bathroom ( especially the shower) was fantastic. Setting couldn’t have been better. Communication was very good. Every staff member we interacted with was always friendly and helpful. Food at the restaurant was delicious. Really enjoyed the Rumboat beach bar. We had hoped it would be a fantastic vacation but it exceeded all our expectations. 10/10 Not sure I’d suggest any changes to the operation as it’s being run currently.
• Gustavo A (10/5): Great location,great staff and overall very relaxing - It has a generator so you never have to worry about rolling blackouts No souvenirs
• van der Meij (7/5): Perfect als je van een honeymoonvibe houd - Het is echt een heel mooi opgezet resort met vriendelijke personeel, elke dag kamer schoonmaak het eten in het restaurant was de eerste avond echt fenomenaal, de Dagvjs en die risotto waren niet normaal lekker. Buffet dat 39 dollar was vonden wij heel erg tegenvallen!! Dus als je voor alleen rust komt moet je in dit resort zijn! De accommodatie is al prijzig en dan is alles op het resort zelf ook nog mega prijzig dus houd er rekening mee dat je veel geld kwijt zult zijn na een paar dagen yemaya. De eerste dag had het mega geregend waardoor de paden naar de kant waar iets meer te doen is zo slipperig waren dat dit 's avonds in het donker bijna niet te doen is, voor zo een resort verwacht je wel na jaren dat ze dit toch wel even kunnen aanpakken door een beter looppad aan te leggen, verder alles zeer prijzig in het resort zelf om te eten maar je bent dus bijna verplicht om alleen hier te eten omdat je anders 's avonds door het pikke donker moet. Jammer dat je ook nog voor alles extra moet betalen als je even een kajak wil pakken of een yoga les wil doen, leek erop dat hierdoor niemand ook yoga deed en de lerares daar elke ochtend voor niets zat, maak het gratis voor je klanten! 's avonds is er echt niks meer te beleven hier, mensen slapen vroeg en is het echt uitgestorven houd hier rekening mee als je meer reuring wil.
• Hofer (9/5): - Äußerst ruhige Lage direkt am Meer.Super freundliches Personal.Top ausgestattete Bungalows.Zimmerservice äußerst zuvorkommend und wirklich fleißig .Sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal in der Rezeption ,der Bar und der Küche. Die Preise im Restaurant sind hoch.Die Qualität des Essens aber sehr gut.Lediglich das Frühstück ist wirklich überteuert.Bei einem längeren Aufenthalt summieren sich da die Kosten,da der Weg in den Ort doch etwas länger ist und man den nicht jeden Tag machen möchte.
• STEPHANIE (9/5): - Situation géographique. Départ de snorkeling. Personnel attentionné. Beauté de l'hôtel et des chambres. Super piscine.
• Camilo (1/5): - Nothing They treat you like shit
• Camilo (1/5): Never come back - They don’t care about costumers treat you like shit
• Konstantin Felix (9/5): -
• Jessica (6/5): - Nice rooms Secluded area, no water taxi offered for the price paid. Walking to the village was muddy and a 30 min walk. No entertainment on the property. For the price paid, this doesn't compare to other resorts that actually have entertainment and things for guests to do. So I definitely wouldn't recommend
• Jonathan (9/5): Great in some respects - The plunge pool room was fantastic The food wasn't always great (liked about a third of the dishes) and there are very few alternatives nearby. The wifi was out for the whole duration of our stay, no compensation for that.
• Paul (8/5): -
• Jonathan (3/5): The boat room is a disaster; go for a wonderful casita instead - The boat room was a disaster. Avoid at all costs. Had us moved to a regular Casita, which was fantastic. Nothing to like about the boat room. At least they were accommodating enough to move us to a better room and the service/stay from then on was great. Bed was busted, aircon dripped brown water onto us the whole night (condensation drip, positioned above the bed), enormous puddles seeping in from the door when raining, no light, dreary, felt like I was spending the night in a dull monastery, poor view. Had a single bed sheet and had to use pool towels to try and get some comfort. And to pay extra for the boat? Awful deal; the casitas are wonderful!!! Don't pay more for this room. Also it's misleading: I thought the boats were secluded but they're not. They're side-by-side and nowhere close to the interesting parts of the area.
• Daphne (7/5): -
• OFEK (10/5): -
• Franziska (10/5): -
• Belinda (7/5): Service poor and a bit run down, but still recommend - Views true paradise. Rooms spacious. Worth the effort to get to the island! Service poor (inattentive) Housekeeping often left dirty glasses (which attracted bugs) Lack of towels / details would expect for true luxury Restaurant / bar were often out of ingredients Rain came through roof into room Pools not heated so couldn’t use Chairs in restaurant a bit run down (could do with replacing) Pillows super hard (was difficult to sleep) Mattress super soft and sagging (could do with replacing) Reception did not respond to WhatsApp ever (completely not responsive)
• Estelle (9/5): -
• Juan Antonio (10/5): Perfecto. 10/10 - El lugar es precioso, las casitas son muy cómodas y bonitas, el personal es profesional y amable. De haber podido, me hubiera quedado una semana más. El acceso es complicado desde el pueblo, pero lo tienen bien resuelto con el servicio de recogida en aeropuerto/water taxis
• Douglas (10/5): -
• david (10/5): - Everything
• Courtney (10/5): Stunning Caribbean sanctuary of relaxation. Worth the $. - The room was absolutely beautifully decorated and super spacious and comfortable. The view from the room was heaven and exactly as pictured on Booking site. The property is jungle-meets-ocean sanctuary. The pool area is really cool with the chairs/ stools in the water. All of the restaurant staff were so friendly. The food was delicious. Pay the extra and get their private transport to/from Big Corn - totally worth the certainty, safety and speed.
• Michael (9/5): - Mooi zwembad, mooi strand en schone kamers. Fijn dat de kamers dagelijks en soms meermaals per dag worden opgemaakt. Lekker eten in het restaurant. Restaurant prijzen liggen hoger dan gemiddeld.
• Ann-Katrin (10/5): - Ein kleines Paradies!
• Alena (6/5): Schöne Anlage mit schlechtem Service - Sehr schöne Zimmer und Infrastruktur. Service war super schlecht. Wir haben uns überhaupt nicht willkommen gefühlt. Im Restaurant wurde uns gesagt, Rotwein gibt es nicht im Offenausschank. Als wir dann eine ganze Flasche bestellt haben, die sie aber auch nicht hatten, sahen wir, dass andere Tische die Weine im Offenausschank erhalten haben. Irgendwann kam dann der Manager weil alles super lange dauerte und bei dem konnten wir dann ein Glas Rotwein im Offenausschank bestellen. Wenn ich in dieser Preisklasse ein Zimmer buche, erwarte ich, dass das Personal ebenfalls auf diese Preisklasse geschult ist und nicht unmotiviert rumsteht. Zudem haben wir etwas aufs Zimmer bestellt. Es fühlte sich aber niemand dafür verantwortlich, das Geschirr dann wieder mitzunehmen. Das Hotel muss definitiv besser geführt werden. Leider waren wir sehr enttäuscht. Das Frühstück für 17$ (egal ob man Pancakes oder Egg Benedict bestellt) ist eine Frechheit für das was man kriegt. Absolut nicht im Verhältnis.
• Lama (10/5): -
• Deb (10/5): It is a beautiful spot with delicious food! - Such a beautiful setting! The fact that we had to take a smaller panga to and from the island rather than their larger boat. Also, there were 12 of us crammed in to a “maximum 10” boat ride.
• Yemeling Roxana (10/5): -
• Eline (10/5): - Heel vriendelijk personeel, alles tot in de puntjes in orde!
• Judith (10/5): Espectacular - Todo más la gatita Nada
• Julia (9/5): -
• Stuart (10/5): The best place on earth - One of the finest places on earth to be. Excellent room, staff and food. Location is outstanding. Food was a little expensive.
• Sotomayor (10/5): -
• Emily (10/5): Worth every penny! Incredible place, wish we would have stayed longer! - Stunning resort in total paradise, rooms are beautiful, as are the surroundings. Restaurant was great and staff very lovely and helpful. Loved using snorkel gear, paddle boards and pool.
• Marjo (10/5): Fantastisch goed bezorgd en luxe huisje met heel vaardige en goed personeel - De geweldige locatie, comfort en service. We hadden een huisje met zwembad en het was enorm luxe. We kregen zelfs thee met koekjes elke dag op de kamer. Het personeel was enorm goed en snel. We wilden hier niet meer weg. Echt een enorme aanrader. Dit mag je niet missen! -
• guillaume (10/5): - Une expérience hors du commun. Un endroit magnifique, fou, paradisiaque. J'aurais sûrement dû terminer mon voyage par cet endroit car rien ne pourra égaler ce site au Nicaragua. Le personnel est aux petits soins en permanence. J'ai pû rencontrer Jordan qui travaille sur l'hôtel et c'est une personne incroyable, très avenante, qui à été d'une aide et d'un soin précieux. Loger à Yemaya, c'est vivre dans un cocon de bonheur et de tranquillité. C'est toucher du doigt l'Eden. Certe c'est cher on ne va pas se mentir mais c'est largement à la hauteur des attentes d'un couple de français venu profiter de la vie avec un grand V. Merci à Yemaya et tout son personnel, si professionnel mais aussi très proche et familier. Yemaya merci de nous avoir fait connaître Jordan, je souhaite à tous de pouvoir rencontrer un jour cette personne Le prix peut être mais comme je disais le luxe coûte cher
• Tim (10/5): I found the noises of the city challenging to reintroduce back into. - We loved the solitude of this property, the snorkeling was amazing, as were our walks into town and around the perimeter of the Island shores. Visiting the little villages and being greated with open arms. There really was nothing to complain about.
• Darren (10/5): Don’t hesitate to stay here! The pickup service they offer makes it easy. They have a person with a sign at the Corn I - The location is amazing. The staff are friendly, welcoming and willing to make your stay the best! They cater to your relaxation! Take advantage of all of their amenities such as yoga, meditation, cold plunge etc. It is a 20 min walk into town, there is also a boat taxi that can take you back and forth. Not a lot in town, but if you wanted a change of scenery to grab a drink, then keep that in mind. However, the resort has everything you need.
• Joel R Aguilar (9/5): - La limpieza, atención del personal, comida Todo bien
• Johan Andres (10/5): Paradise - A beautiful place with great rooms and great food. Great service from all the staff. Manager, concierge, and everybody in the hotel. Pound for pound the best hotel i have ever been in Nicaragua. Nothing that i did not like. The only thing i would like is to have the restaurant or bar open a little more(It closes at 8.30pm)
• Edna (10/5): - El paisaje, atención, la comida
• Celedon (10/5): -
• Jonathan (10/5): Sol playa calor y océano - La habitación piscina con piscina es maravillosa las vistas son espectaculares un sueño describe No encontré nada negativo en la estadía
• David (10/5): -
• Juan (7/5): Bad transport - They show a yacht in the photos but we got pick up and drop off in a local fishing boat got rain on the whole 40 min ride
• Christoph (10/5): -
• Markus (10/5): -
• christelle (9/5): étape luxueuse sur une magnifique petite ile caribéenne - emplacement exceptionnel hôtel beau et harmonieux sur une plage paradisiaque bungalow grand confort avec vue époustouflante . Toute la décoration est soignée , les cocktails et le petit déjeuner excellents un peu déçu qu'il n'y ait pas de proposition de poisson frais pendant trois jours à la carte du restaurant
• Lourdes (10/5): - La tranquilidad del hotel. Al tratarse de un numero reducido de cabañas, el entorno paradisíaco se puede disfrutar de manera privilegiada
• Maria (10/5): - Everything!!!! Beautiful place. Clean, comfortable and the staff very helpful.
• Brian (9/5): -
• Fernando (9/5): A paradise feeling with beachfront luxury cabins. - Amazing location, with paradise views and great cabins that included a good floorplan division of the bathroom and toilet. The food was always very tasty, as we tried 2/3 of the dishes and also, about 2/3 of the cocktail list. The margaritas were one of the best we ever had. In addition, the two yoga instructors (Camila and Tara, were nothing short of perfect!). My friend also booked a deep tissue massage and came out feeling great. Marcos, the driver on Big Corn was also very friendly and a great start and ending of our stay. Excluding the booking manager (turquoise guayabera) and bar/rest manager (white guayabera), the general bartenders and serving staff were often mediocre, and at times even rude in temper (particularly on Monday night!). This was a total letdown as the place is a 10/10. What’s worse, as guests you are only depending on this restaurant and bar. We have to point out that the managers did make it up to us by excluding some orders, which was a total surprise and which we appreciated. This kind of gesture showed us that the Yemaya management cares about service and are willing to improve, so we decided to still give this location a 9/10. As everything else was great. Tips for the serving staff would be to clean the tables more often, come and check-in if guests want more drinks or are missing (side) orders. The food and drink flavors were so good, that once they arrived, they made up for the loss of service. But for a 5 star resort you expect a decent service.
• Benjamin (6/5): - Great setting, food and service. Attentive staff.
• vivian anette (10/5): - Everything was exelente, just the pillow for me was a bit hard, the food exelent, osmar and ricardo are AMAZING
• Dirk (9/5): -
• Sabrina (9/5): Ein kleines Paradies - Schönes Hotel in toller Lage mit freundlichem Personal und einer super Ausstattung. Preis mit 17 Dollar beim Frühstück für das was geboten wird sind zu hoch.
• KAIYU (10/5): -
• Garazi (10/5): Maravilloso - Uno de los mejores sitios en los que nos hemos hospedado jamás. Relación calidad precio sobresaliente. Trato del personal increíble y un entorno idílico. Está un poco alejado del pueblo, pero el paseo también es precioso.
• Wendy (10/5): Paradise the Caribbean ❤️ - Everything! The location, the food and the staff. I loved it all. I can’t think of anything.
• Edward (10/5): Excellent service, food, resort. experience! - These guys take care of everything. Make sure you book the ocean front with the plunge pool. Not all bugaloos have pools. The hotel pool is gorgeous too and the entire island is a photo op. Gorgeous. Snorkeling is decent. 2 big Nurse sharks and a stingray. Lots of tropical fish. Beach is gorgeous food is great! Definitely plan to return soon.
• Danielle (10/5): A dream come true: the staff, food, and views were perfect. - I want to give a special shoutout to the incredible staff—they were kind, attentive, and genuinely fun from the moment I arrived. On my third day, I received the heartbreaking news that my grandfather had passed away. I was working at the bar when I found out and ran to my room in tears after asking the staff to watch my laptop. When I returned, they could see I was upset and gently offered support. One staff member even offered a hug and said they were there if I needed to talk. I’ll never forget that kindness. The managers were amazing, helping me book and extend my stay and arranging taxis even when I stayed elsewhere. The location was peaceful, safe, and just a short water taxi from town. While not much is walkable, you won’t need it—the hotel has everything. My room was spacious with a comfy bed, soft pillows, and a mini fridge. Wi-Fi was fast and reliable, perfect for remote work. Housekeeping was consistent and thoughtful—they even brought cookies and tea each evening. The snorkeling tour was a highlight (even better than scuba!), and the spa was affordable and took last-minute bookings. Room service was great, and every meal—from smoothies to cocktails—was 4–5 stars. The food and drink quality, along with the overall value, were excellent. This is truly the best hotel I’ve ever stayed at. I felt cared for, remembered, and completely at home. I’m already dreaming of coming back—thank you for making such a difficult moment easier and turning my trip into something unforgettable. I truly loved everything about my stay and don’t have a single complaint. If I had to suggest one small improvement, it would be to consider a few extra measures to help with bugs and sand mites. They already provide small fans at the tables, which definitely help while dining, and the fresh fruit displays on the tables are absolutely beautiful—but they can attract some bugs. Maybe offering a bit more bug spray or soothing lotion on-site would be a nice touch. I came prepared with repellents, but I went through them quickly—mainly because I tend to get eaten alive! That said, this really isn’t the hotel’s fault, and they do have measures in place. It’s just a small recommendation from someone who bugs seem to love—not a complaint.
• Scott (10/5): - Very nice area for vacations. I just think some areas need to be patched up, because that denotes space for gecko’s .
• Laura (10/5): Absolutely loved our stay and wish it could have been longer! - Stunning surroundings, amazing beach and pool, really great rooms with hot showers, amazing food at the restaurant and super helpful/friendly staff! It was a true tropical paradise and we loved it. All prices shown (transport / activities / food & drinks) don’t include taxes, so the final bill was a bit of a shock.
• Alexander (10/5): Exceptional -
• Cheryl (10/5): - The plants are full of life. Neat bathroom with plants, live crabs, little lizards are in the bathroom too. Beautiful views of the carribean. Delicious drink and foods. Not one single complaint.
• Martina (10/5): A wonderful place! - A great place to relax and spend a great time! The only way to reach the place is by boat. We had a very bumpy and very wet trip to reach the hotel.
• Grey (10/5): Another Day in Paradise - Yemaya Reefs is perfection. From the door-to-door service from Big Corn airport (definitely worth it to reserve transportation through Yemaya as opposed to finding a taxi from Big Corn airport to the harbor and then finding a water taxi) to the welcome drinks to every member of the team greeting you by name to the sheer beauty of the location and facilities… its perfection. With so few rooms, beach and pool loungers were always available even when the hotel was booked to capacity. The food and cocktails were spectacular, with new dinner specials every night. I stayed in a Beachfront Casita and was impressed with the spaciousness of the room and bathroom. 10/10 no notes.
• Adam (10/5): - Everyone was friendly and courteous
• Lina (10/5): Heaven on Earth - One of the most beautiful spots on the world that I have ever seen. Lovely accomodation with sea view, it really has all you could wish for! Highly recommended :-)
• Jacob (10/5): A very special peace of Paradise. Go and relax ! It will not get any better - Amazing paradise A bit far
• Lucie (10/5): The most magical place to relax in Nicaragua - Absolutely magical place, amazing and helpful staff. I felt like I was in paradise. Hotel facilities, outdoor gym, beach. Absolutely amazing. The price is also great, bar and restaurant more expensive but the quality matches. It would be nice to arrange some kind of contracted water taxi to the hotel. Because the price of a regular water taxi, 20 USD for both ways for 1 person, seemed expensive to me (it is not much, but it is not reasonable for the distance).
• Veronica (10/5): - It was a lovely stay.
• Beaver (10/5): peaceful, beautiful, an experience, stunning. - everything. seriously. we called this place "princess land" because it was exactly that. From the second we were picked up at the airport and brought to the resort, welcomed with a cocktail, had our luggage carried, every question answered promptly and kindly, and every need catered to. We simply didn't want to ever leave, and had wished that we had booked our entire Nicaragua trip here and that we could have spent the entire 9 days here! We will be back. OH and the food - everything has paled in comparison since eating here hahahahaha. simply nothing???? we loved it all/
• Alvaro (10/5): - It aa is an amazing place . We had been there two times in the last year.
• Bruno (10/5): Exceptional -
• Lucy (9/5): Very beautiful hotel - High quality customer service Rooms are beautiful and pristine The hotel itself is stunning, surrounded by stunning beaches. Good free use of snorkels and kayaks. The pool area, there would be guests leaving towels on the beds all day and then dissapearing. There was only about 5 sunloungers around the pool area so for people to take them like this wasnt fair and there should be a policy stopping guests doing this. There wasnt much going on at night, very quiet, the rum boat we was told would be open for pizza but just found the security guard and 2 dogs growling at us. Breakfast and food is very expensive.
• richard (8/5): - Beautiful property, however i recommend bringing food & snacks & beverages. There is no where close to purchase. The dinning staf was extremely slow, we had to beg for water they would take our glass we would sit forever waiting & waiter would not return. The menu was small and they were out of most of the main dishes. We where served the wrong dinners that took over hour to get, while its beautiful there no good or water and only alchol available at a hefty cost. Makes for a unpleasant time.
• Corstiaan (9/5): Gem on little corn - This is a gorgeous place, a real gem. Nice swimming pool The restaurant is very exclusive and you pay for that. You can eat at other places but the village is a30 minutes walk
• Beatriz (10/5): an absolute fantastic peaceful stay! - I would definitely recommend Yemaya over and over again! What a wonderful experience with my family. the rooms were kept super clean and neat, it was quite spacious. the bathroom was sooo lovely! loved the showering area. the communal pool was great. restaurant was lovely! loved the fresh smoothies and drinks, absolutely yummy! the beaches were equipped with chairs, hammocks, swings! there were kayaks and paddle boards available, although due to the strong winds we couldn't try this but great to know the hotel provides them! A special comment about concierge and staff - they were all super duper kind and approachable. they were so accommodating and helped as much as they could! they made it a 5 star experience for my family and I. Would love to come back!
