Set serenely between the Atlantic and the Pacific Ocean, Nicaragua is known for its dreamy scenery featuring lakes, volcanoes, and beaches. The country is home to iconic geographic gems including the extensive Cocibolca lake and Mombacho volcano to name a few.

The Ranch is nestled in a magical region of the country, named Tola, where adventure and nature collide in a destination worthy of exploration. At Rancho Santana, a family vacation has the potential to be truly memorable. You can choose from the resort’s family activities including surfing, mountain biking, horseback riding, and so much more.
