Meet Your Hosts
Ali Abrahimia
Host & Curator
Ali is a self-made entrepreneur who built and sold a U.S.-based company after 13 years in business. After years of success, he hit a point many people never talk about—burnout, disconnection, and a desire for something more real.
Instead of continuing down the same path, he made a bold decision: leave the U.S. and start over on the coast of Nicaragua.
What began as a personal reset turned into something much bigger.
He designed and built The Flamingo Experience as a place that blends nature, comfort, and intentional living—drawing from his background in business, design, and human performance.
Today, Ali hosts guests not just as a property owner, but as a guide—offering insight into lifestyle, business, and what it actually takes to build a life you don’t need a vacation from.
Franny Kalhary
Host & Realtor
Frannie brings local knowledge, cultural insight, and real estate expertise that most travelers never get access to.
As a Nicaraguan native and licensed real estate professional, she helps guests understand not just where they are—but what’s possible here.
From navigating local culture to identifying investment opportunities, Frannie bridges the gap between curiosity and confidence.
Together, Ali and Frannie offer a rare combination: international perspective and deep local connection.

Super lovely time in Remanso at Flamingo Experience. I absolutely recommend. The stay was lovely. I think both my partner and I found it to exceed our expectations! ||Ali was super helpful, creating a great vibe here. He was very welcoming and communicative and creates an awesome atmosphere for the guests. Really nothing to complain about! Rooms were clean, well-kept, with incredible views. ||The food was definitely a highlight. Their chefs and team make delicious meals and drinks off their menu. Also, bonus points for the digital guide! ||We found some recommendations in there (like the hike to the secret beach) to be highlights of our trip. Ali clearly has put a lot of love and effort into the Flamingo Experience, and it shows in every aspect. Would absolutely stay again. Oh, the surf was also fun, and you can't really be any closer to the wave!

The view is absolutely jaw dropping. The rooms were absolutely lovely and by far the most luxurious we had during our trip to Nicaragua. The staff was so helpful and friendly. And all of the owners recommendations for food and activities were absolutely 10/10. We loved everything about it.

We had such a great time at Flamingo Experience! The view from the house was breathtaking, the beach was so relaxing and there was always something to do, we loved using the boogie boards, and karaoke night was definitely one of the highlights. The in house chef was amazing, the service from the entire staff was great, and a special shoutout to Marlon for making the best sangrias! Ali and Frania were amazing hosts. They made everyone feel welcome and were always around if you needed anything, which made our stay even better. We can’t wait to go back in Playa Remanso🌴🍹

Hospitality is just the beginning
What started as a boutique stay is evolving into something more.
For some, Flamingo is a vacation.
For others, it’s the beginning of a new chapter living abroad.
Many guests arrive curious about Nicaragua—and leave with a completely different perspective on lifestyle, cost of living, and worldly opportunity.
For qualified buyers, we’re happy to share what we’ve learned about buying and developing real estate in Nicaragua.
What Makes This DifferentÂ
- True oceanfront location — step out and you’re on the wave
- Fully hosted experience — not a DIY vacation rental
- Curated food, music, and atmosphere
- Surf, adventure, and wellness integrated naturally
- Access to trusted local experiences and connections
- Optional guidance on living, working, or investing in Nicaragua
