If you're looking for a cozy beachfront escape, this is the perfect place. The cabins are just meters from the ocean, the host is lovely, and the atmosphere is incredibly peaceful. The hostel is about a 20-minute walk from the center, making it easy to explore the island. My favorite part was falling asleep and waking up to the sound of the waves and watching the sunrise every morning. I already miss Mama Grace's place.

The Cool Spot was probably the best food we had on our whole trip in Nicaragua. Relaxed atmosphere & delicious food right next to the beach - what more could you need

A beautiful family run this place who live on site. It's on the east side of the island which gets the wind and rough sea but you also get the sunrises. About a 15min walk to the port and main part of town. Rooms are fine and basic. It's old and run down so don't expect a thing fancy.

Wer eine einfache Unterkunft direkt am Strand sucht ist hier genau richtig. Wo kann man noch für so wenig Geld direkt am Strand übernachten? Die Hütten am Strand sind einfach aber man hat alles was man braucht. Wasserdruck war super. Frühstück war lecker. Entspannte Atmosphäre und durch den Wind war kein Ventilator notwendig. Wenige Gehminuten zu Restaurants und ins "Zentrum". Für mich war es ein ganz besonderer Ort! Würde jederzeit wieder kommen!

Location is perfect if you want to be away from it all. Our room was 20’ from the ocean. I hooked into 2 Tarpon right in front of our cabin. Bring a flashlight for the walk home at night. It’s about a 15 min walk to the main area on the other side of the island. It’s an easy walk. Rooms are what you see In all the pictures. Comfortable, good shower and a toilet that flushes. Bed was pretty good also. If you want an affordable place to stay in a cool setting. This is the place.

Die Inhaberin Grace ist sehr nett, der Ort eigentlich sehr schön und die Betten recht gemütlich. Es gibt eine Gemeinschaftsküche und das Essen soll sehr lecker sein. Leider sind die Mitarbeitenden sehr desinteressiert und bewegen sich keinen Meter auf einen zu. Es wirkt als hätten sie gar keine Lust. Als wir ankamen wurde uns nichts außer unsere Hütte gezeigt, wir mussten alles selbst herausfinden. Es gab bspw. Einen Grillabend, der auf einem mini Schild total versteckt beworben wurde. Auf meine Nachfrage wurde nur gesagt, dass es stattfindet. Keine Einladung, keine genaueren Infos.. Genau das gleiche mit den Schnorcheltouren. Wirklich schade! Hier könnte eine schöne Atmosphäre entstehen, würde man nur mal auf die Leute zugehen oder zumindest mal nett zurückgrüßen. Strom gibt es nur ein paar Stunden am Tag, das Wifi ebenso und wenn, dann geht es eher schlecht bis gar nicht. Das kann man aber gut aushalten. Wir hatten alles in allem trotzdem eine entspannte Zeit auf Little Corn, hätten uns nur gerne mehr in diesem eigentlich sehr schönen Hostel aufhalten wollen.

Grace’s place quickly wormed its way into our hearts. We loved the simplicity and peacefulness of the grounds. David, Grace’s nephew, was watching over in her absence this week. He was phenomenal, one of the kindest hearted people we have met. He was an excellent host, always ensuring we were comfortable. The cabins are simple, they aren’t luxurious and ours was particularly cozy. But we loved that, we came to unplug and live differently. I do not understand the complaints within the other reviews, as I feel the website is very clear as to what to expect. You are ocean front!! If you find something to complain about while being ocean front on a Caribbean island, thats on you 😉 Read up on the nature of the cabins, keep an open mind, and enjoy!
