[2022 UPDATE] THE PROJECT IS CLOSED AND WE ARE SELLING. WE ARE STILL LOOKING FOR A NEW OWNER. PLEASE SHARE AND CONTACT US FOR MORE DETAILS 🙏 Peace. Love. 


Located on the Pacific coast of Isla Los Brasiles in Nicaragua, the lodge is a beachfront Eco-resort, co-living space and educational center where guests and volunteers can experience life in a community, learn about many things including sustainability,  and contribute to the well being of the local communities. 

Carpe Diem was built over the last 5 years by over 700 international volunteers. Everybody brought their personality and used their creativity to make this project such a special and powerful place to be. Over 90% of building structures were built with natural and recycled materials. We are solar-powered and use water directly from man-made wells on site. Half of the 1-hectare piece of land is forested and serves as a camping area and fruit farm, while the front is a stunning sunny area where guests can enjoy the main community space. Compost toilets and open-air showers are scattered throughout the premises for your convenience.

​
​COMMUNITY AND CO-LIVING 

We nurture a back to the source and healthy environment where people can heal, grow and get empowered through the support of a community.

To connect people and create a vibe that is more user-friendly, 
we decided to create a co-living space instead of a traditional host/guest resort.

Everyone participate in daily tasks like passing the broom, filling the water filter, helping to cook, etc... It only takes a few minutes per day but it makes all the difference!

Our beach Cabanas are beautiful, spacious and natural. The walls are made of cob (a mixture of clay, sand and straw)  and the roofs are made of  palm leaves.
