The pool was beautiful and clean, but my favorite part about this property was the customer service. They catered to be 24/7. The restaurant on the hotel grounds usually closes around 10 but they would open up at 11 just to make me a burger and fries. This made my El Salvador trip unforgettable I loved it here!

Nicely decorated hotel but cheaply made rooms. Missing basic amenities like floor mats, hand towels, shelves in the shower or bathroom to set your belongings. Pool looked nice, on a nice beach, $4 margaritas were great.

First of all the price was excellent. It doesn’t look like much on the outside because it’s a parking lot, the room was not big , but it had everything I needed, it was exactly in front of the beach, they sell food & drinks. The pool was not gigantic but it was very nice ! And staff waiting on anything you need, they even picked up our things & brought them close to the pool for us ! It was excellent service ! Food was tasty also I had some steak asked them to cut it into small pieces so we could use as an appetizer and also had breaded fish with added shrimp & a salad it was very good I like Margaritas and they were excellent my Cousins like beer so they had beer. Breakfast was good also.

Five stars for the girl at the front desk very kind and sweet. But I’m leaving this review because the place was extremely dirty, and none of that is shown in the pictures. That’s why it’s so cheap! Don’t come here expecting everything to be as cozy as it looks in the photos.

Pool was not bad, that day it was extra cold but weather was super windy, bad there was construction nextdoor so the spray they were using was hitting us. The parking would be helpful if is paved because the road is already not, overall the place is cute, great view of the sea, the room was clean, if they keep up with updates this hotel can be a perfect stay.(The room where I stayed was small perfect for one person maybe 2, you can make it work)

I stayed here for a weekend and it was ok. My AC went out and they had to replace it so i showered in another room until they had everything fixed. The gave me free breakfast for that. My TV didn’t work my entire stay. The pool is small i didn’t utilize it. I don’t drink but my slushies were pretty good. The seafood platter that i ordered was mid but i loved the breakfast. Its near the beach and you can access it once you get pass the rocks. Food along the beach was good but you can’t bring it back to the hotel. The water never got hot but it’s hot enough outside that you wouldn’t mind. In all i wouldn’t mind staying here again but i would rather explore other near by options. This is like a fancy motel.

DO NOT stay at Hotel Baru Unless you want to hear BUM BUM super loud music from 8 am to midnight ( hotel next door goes up until 2-3 am , one of the days I woke up before 8am with SUPER loud music that never stopped, it's a Disco Bar Restaurant with very very loud music just where your room is and soundproof is zero , all my room would shake with the Bum bum. Besides all this the room is so weak in terms of amenities, nothing, Zero place to put your clothing, nothing at all I never had room where there is not even a nail to hang your clothing, there is a very small thing next to the bed but not even a lamp you have to turn light off and on while standing next to the door and then walk to the bed with no lights. The toilet, never saw a toilet with ZERO to hang the soap or shampoo in the shower , I had to improvise with a plastic bag or else the soap would be on the floor. No place in the toilet to put your personal hygiene stuf , ZERO ! Everything had to be placed on top of the toilet flush . The receptionist ZERO not welcoming at all and when my door did not closed properly she refused to move me to another room . My room was not cleaned 1 day in 8 nights that I stayed there. The only nice people in this hotel were the 2 security guys , specially the one that helped me in the last night at 4am when the hotel parking was flooded and I had to walk bear foot in the water to the Uber and he helped me with my luggage. Do not stay here!
