Why travel to Nicaragua?
Affordable adventure without sacrificing comfort
As Room to Roam Co-Founders, Kate and Chance are no stranger to hearing the common question….why Nicaragua?! Making a decision to quit their stable day-jobs in San Diego, California to build a travel experience company during the middle of a pandemic clearly raised a few eyebrows. Additionally, spreading the word to promote people traveling to our new Central American paradise along the Emerald Coast of Nicaragua was often met with hesitancy about the safety of Nicaragua. It became clear that a general lack of knowledge, inaccurate misconceptions, and outdated information on Nicaragua was interfering with it being seen and appreciated. So, allow us to reintroduce Nicaragua to you with facts that may both surprise and delight you.
Nicaragua has recently been ranked as one of the top 10 safest countries to travel to despite Covid-19. Based on research and data from the University of Oxford and the World Health Organization (WHO), a recent publication ranks Nicaragua as the only place on the American continent where it is safe to travel, highlighting that, of every 100 inhabitants, 78 have not been infected with the virus 1. Additionally, “Nicaragua obtained the seal of safe travels from the World Travel and Tourism Council, WTTC, for applying Tourism Biosafety Protocols in the context of covid-19.”2
It's safe!
Not only is Nicaragua a hidden gem, Nicaragua is one of the safest countries in Central America! As in all cases and places, it protects you to be a smart + savvy traveler that avoids political protests and exercises general caution and awareness. In the event that you were to require medical attention, the Roberto Clemente Health Clinic is just 15 minutes away from our hotel.
