Explore the undiscovered Caribbean – reminiscent of Barbados and Jamaica in the past. Welcome to the NiCaribbean – a name coined by those living and working at Calala Island for this remote, untouched corner of the world, just off the Nicaraguan coast. This place has a unique beauty, with genuine warmth from each new encounter with its inhabitants. This area of Nicaragua, known as the Caribbean Coast or the Mosquito Coast (after the Miskito people who used to live there), is unlike any place you'll find in Managua, its capital. Here, seven different ethnic groups come together, each with their dialect and culture. Creole is the primary language here, while reggae and soca are more prominent than Spanish songs.

DINING

Nestled in 10.5 acres of unspoiled paradise, Calala is a remote island escape that will make you feel you have been washed ashore. With its luxurious and unique fine-dining cuisine, prepare for a gastronomic journey. Chef Lorne Emerson, a seasoned professional with plenty of experience in the kitchens of Paris and the French Riviera, is at the helm of this culinary voyage. His menu takes on an international flair, infused with fresh local ingredients grown right on the island. From carpaccio made with fresh lobster to an intriguing "Mystery Egg" - a Caribbean curried meringue encapsulating a dragon-fruit-cured egg yolk - Chef Emerson's unique creations are a must-try. Even the bread and coconut sorbet are made in-house! As you savor every bite of this exquisite feast, feel free to relax under an open-air palapa and go barefoot if you'd like.

ACTIVITIES & EXPERIENCES

Take a break and enjoy a luxurious, island-style getaway. Relax in your macrame hammock with a good book or libation of choice, with the vast ocean as your backdrop. Or take to the waters with a stand-up paddleboard or kayak and head to the nearby Little Calala Island - a small sandbar with a single palapa for sunbathing or picnicking. If you would rather stay on land, jump into the resort's sinuous pool under the palms, or swim to the bar for a signature Piña Calalas.

Try snorkeling around its untouched reefs for an even more adventurous experience; you can see butterflyfish, grunts, angelfish, squirrelfish, and starfish. Or fish like a local, with a simple coconut shell slice on a string and a hook, and get rewarded with freshly-caught red snapper.
