DISTANCE FROM AIRPORT
Casa Tortuga is located about a 2.5-hour drive from the Augusto C. Sandino airport in Managua. Another option can be the Liberia, Costa Rica Airport located approximately 3 hours from the Rancho Santana development. Flying into Liberia requires a border crossing, and our drivers can be on-hand to help with navigating, escorting guests across both borders and delivering them safely to their accommodations.
We can organize transportation service to and from the airport. If you would like to rent a vehicle, we highly recommend renting a 4x4 as it does get a bit bumpy in Nicaragua, and not driving at night without a guide. We can coordinate delivery of a rental vehicle to your villa, free of charge!
A vehicle will also allow you to access the Playa Colorado, Panga Drops and Los Perros surf breaks. There is a back road within Rancho Santana that leads to a surf parking area (and great taco restaurant!). You can park there and surf Los Perros out front or walk to Panga Drops and Playa Colorado.
