Guacalito de la Isla Information

Don Carlos Pellas’ Vision: The brainchild of successful entrepreneur and native Nicaraguan Don Carlos Pellas, Guacalito de la Isla fulfills a dream to do something meaningful for his homeland and, ultimately, for all of Central America by using the region’s emerging sustainable tourism industry as a method for balancing fragile economies within local communities. His vision for Guacalito de la Isla is to create a unique eco-retreat at a special place in Nicaragua and share it with a select group of like-minded ambassadors—people who have fallen in love with this part of the world and wish to help save it. Together with Don Carlos’ wife Vivian, a prominent patron of the Nicaraguan community, the Pellas family is planting the seeds for a new society that will raise the standard of living in Central America.
