Before you book, it can be a good idea to contact the hotel to check if they have generators and if they are working. Power outages are not unusual on Big Corn Island. If applicable, also check if the generators will actually be used to keep the AC on in your room, or if the AC is turned off to save energy during power outages.
Here are a few examples of hotels and hostels on Big Corn

Casa Canada is as far as we know no longer looking for investors that are welcomed to buy one (or several) of the cabins in the hotel. However it might still be possible to buy a room from an earlier investor. Anyone owning a room g will earn money from when that cabin is rented after management fees are deducted. Check their website for more information. Always make sure that you understand all aspects of an investment before you invest money.
