Our Guest Rooms | Granada Nicaragua

I hope Matisse and Rivera would be pleased. As a painter, I'm still a work in progress but, I do like the challenge of painting frescos directly on the wall.

Papaya Nearing Harvest Time


We didn't have the space for the towering Royal or Coconut Palm but, I wanted a little vertical structure to the garden. The papaya seemed a natural. We've enjoyed one so far, with many more to follow soon. This one was planted from seen 11 months ago. It should produce for the next five years. It's been adopted as a great perch for the Kiskadee as well. http://twitpic.com/npdzo

Our Window On The Street

Flower boxes on the street are not the norm here, but it seemed like a natural with full southern exposure. The bougainvillea seem to enjoy it and though the idea hasn't caught on with the neighbours they have been very complimentary.

We spent 11 wonderful nights at Casa Silas in August 2009. Rob and Janik are great hosts and are a wealth of information about Nicaragua. Casa Silas is an excellent place to relax and have a feel for the "real Nicaragua". Cooling down in the pool or laying in a hammock with a book in hand helped make our vacation relaxing. Breakfast was always delicious and plentiful (the smoothies were my favourite! - thanks Janik). We look forward to returning to Casa Silas on our next trip to Nicaragua - December 2010.

Casa Silas is a beautiful and tranquil place. Janik serves the best breakfast in the whole of Nicaragua and you'll never want to leave here! The pool is a welcome refreshment. Rob and Janik are kind hosts and are always there for you. We really recommend this nice homey place as the best of Granada!

I recently returned from a stay at Casa Silas. It is my new home away from home. I am an adoption attorney and travel to Nicaragua quite frequently. I found the accommodations at Casa Silas very comfortable with that home away from home feel. Casa Silas has a very intimate atmosphere and the owners are always there to help you with any questions. Each morning the owners prepared a fabulous breakfast to help me start out the day. Casa Silas has wireless Internet and a North American phone connection (Vonage) which allowed me to keep in contact with all my clients back home while attending to my adoption business in Nicaragua. If you want hip, stylish, and comfortable accommodations, choose Casa Silas. You can't beat the price. I already have my next stay booked!

My husband and I spent 4 days in this wonderful B&B in a renovated old colonial house with beautifully landscaped inner courtyard. The swimming pool provided refreshing relief from the hot afternoon sun. Breakfasts were gourmet with lots of fruit and great coffee. But most importantly, Janik and Rob provided us with invaluable information about Granada and Nicaragua to help us plan our days in this fascinating country. We would definitely recommend Casa Silas for your visit to Granada.

If you're looking for a beautifully-appointed B&B in the heart of Granada, Casa Silas is the place for you. My girlfriend and I stayed here for 2 nights (the last of our 6-night stay in Nicaragua) and Janik & Rob were extremely hospitable, going above & beyond to make us feel comfortable and at home. The house itself is a gem (especially the gorgeous pool and the guest room), everything is beautifully-furnished and spotless, and the house dog Silas is one of the cutest pups you'll ever meet. We will recommend this place to all of our friends and family!

Casa Silas is a lovely find in Granada. Charmingly decorated, spacious bedroom and best of all, delightful hosts Janik and Rob, and their friendly dog Silas. We traveled all over Nicaragua and kept coming back to stay at Casa Silas. We highly recommend this bed and breakfast.

We planned on being at Casa Silas for three days and ended up staying for six! Janik and Rob were well-informed, fun and accommodating hosts and their place was beautiful. We felt completely pampered in the spacious, comfy bedroom and the courtyard with a pool and hammock. It was a totally no-pressure, relaxing stay and we hope to come back one day.

Janik, Rob and Silas were very welcoming and really helped us get oriented our first few days in Nicaragua. Janik taught us some of the Nica food ways with her breakfast feast, Rob drew a little walking map of Granada for us, and Silas led us on a hike to Posintepe for a great overlook of the city that many travellers never see. I look forward to visiting again if I have the chance to return to Granada. Thank you!

We stayed at Casa Silas for a couple of nights over Christmas (2008). The place is great. Spotlessly clean, comfortable, and with style and character. Janik and Rob were very welcoming, friendly and helpful beyond expectations. Their dog Silas is good fun too- very enthusiastic! We really enjoyed our stay and strongly recommend this place. Thanks for the yummy breakfasts Jan!

Rainforest Fragrance | Nicaragua

We just had a brief rain shower. There may be more coming. The fragrance in the air following that light rain is so sweet and organic. It may be as close as you can come to having a an Eden, jungle, rainforest smell in an urban area. Just another wonderful aspect of having a tropical garden in the centre of your home.

New rooms update on our page

I decided it was time to re:photograph the guest rooms to include the murals I've been working on. Also, they have updated the telephone dialling in Nicaragua requiring a 2 before landlines and an 8 before cellular telephones, so it was time to revisit the website and make a few updates. I hope if you haven't seen it, you might consider a visit now as well, and please take a look at our Facebook link and do become a friend. adios
