Adventure

Jicaro (“hee-ka-row”) Island is a private islet in Lake Nicaragua, about 15 minutes by boat from the colonial city of Granada. The islet was formed by an eruption of Mombacho Volcano, which rises above the lake’s southern shore. Jicaro Island Lodge was designed by architect Matthew Falkiner and features nine lakefront casitas built from reclaimed wood. Operated by the Cayuga Collection, the lodge offers polished comfort, personalized service, and a strong commitment to sustainable design.
