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.

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.

Zimmer ist klein aber fein, könnte jedoch einen neuen Anstrich vertragen. Zimmer zum „Innenhof“ sind mit Blick auf den Parkplatz, die Autos parken direkt davor und es gibt, nicht wie auf den Bildern, keine Möbel vor der Unterkunft! Es herrscht Wochentags Lärm bis nach Mitternacht und an Wochenenden bis 2 Uhr morgens.
