Map and directions to Granada
By Car: From Managua, head south-east along Careterra Masaya. The distance is about 46 kilometers and it should take 45 minutes.
 
By Taxi: Taxis from Managua to Granada should cost around $30. If you get a taxi from the airport, the price will be substantially higher. It is cheaper if you walk outside the barriers and get a taxi from the highway itself.

By Bus: Regional buses to Granada leave Mercado Roberto Huembes every 15 minutes. The bus is usually quite full, but the price is around 50 cents. The trip should take just over an hour. Air-conditioned Express buses cost about 80 cents leave from a bus station across the street from the Universidad Centroamericana (UCA) every 20 minutes.

Once in Granada...
Get taxi and ask for Carita Feliz in Calle San Juan del Sur. The cost of taxi journeys within the main districts of Granada is fixed: 5 Cordobas during the day and 10 Cordobas after 10pm for the entire journey.

Alternatively, it is a 10 minute walk from the Parque Central toward the lake. From Hotel Gran Francia, walk down Calle Caimito which becomes Calle San Juan del Sur. Carita Feliz is the fifth street on the right, opposite Panaderia San Juan del Sur.
