Nicaragua aims to develop luxury medical tourism

In San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua, there are plans for a new kind of hotel. It will boast 61 rooms, foreign chefs, ocean-view rooms, a four-star rating, and a whole floor dedicated to medical treatment for its guests.

Speaking at this month’s Central American Advantage Conference in Managua, the owner of the proposed medical resort, Nelson Estrada, told the audience that his development will be the first of its kind in Nicaragua.

If Estrada can get the necessary investment, he says work will begin on “Solest MedResort, Hotel and Spa” by August and the project would open in 2015. Once completed, the medical resort will offer clients a boutique hotel and an extensive range of medical procedures all under one roof.
