Ecolodge Blue Morpho the new destination in southern Nicaragua
Welcome to Blue Morpho
When we begin a journey,
we always end up somewhere.
Sometimes we stay for a while, other times just briefly.
Take all the time you need.
There’s no such thing as boredom here.
How are you?
You’ve already found us online – how wonderful!
Now, all that’s left is to meet us in person.

and then we’ll explain how you can come visit us.
Sounds good?
