You can also join local community groups or forums online, such as those on Facebook or expat websites. These can be a great source of information and you can ask for recommendations or advice from people who are living or have lived on the island. Once you have a list of potential places, you should visit them in person if possible. This will give you a better feel for the place and the surrounding area. Lastly, before making a final decision, make sure to read the rental agreement carefully and understand all the terms and conditions. If you're not fluent in Spanish, you might want to get help from a local or a professional translator to ensure you fully understand the contract," remarked one member in Ometepe Island.
