Our group stayed in this rustic, wonderful property in Feb 2020. The owner and her son are wonderful people who provided amazing meals (different each day over the 4 days and 3 nights we were there).  The highlight is being directly on a quiet, non-commercial beach for a very low price compared to something on the beach in a tourist area.  Our group loved it and will definitely go back there again. We didn’t use the pool as it is not the chlorinated kind....but we didn’t care as the beach and amazing surf were of far more interest.  The rooms are simple with 2 or 3 single beds each.  If you are there as a couple just push the beds together.  The rooms are colorful but have the expectation that the bathroom and shower area is fairly open.  Most of the rooms have the shower tucked around the corner but there are no bathroom doors.  That didn’t matter for our group but it may be something to consider if privacy inside the room is important to you.  As with other places in this part of El Salvador, do not expect hot showers.  They weren’t ice cold but expect lukewarm at best.  Hammocks are all over the place on the property and the flowers / landscaping is excellent.  We also loved the place where meals are served overlooks the beach.   I am already making plans to bring my entire family here later this year.  Our group loved it and you will too if you go in with the right expectations.

Set Your Expectations Right and You Will Love This Property

This spot was the perfect location for my group! The staff was absolutely incredible and engaged throughout the trip to make sure we had the experience of a life time. They provided amazing traditional food that differs in style daily, a beautiful ocean view with great waves, and very comfortable rooms! The hotel is homey, colorful, and casual- a true escape from reality. I would recommend this location for anyone who is looking for an amazing, well priced place to stay.

Amazing.

I had mixed feeling reviewing this stayed.  On the one hand I was very impressed with the meal menu.  Our first evening, after missing our right turn to a very tiny long entry road, I had a sea fish stuffed with shrimp with a Salvadorian touch of salad and maduros.  Very appetizing dish. My family felt the same way about their dinner choice.
Other positives this small quiet place provided was privacy and intimacy. There were two other younger couple sharing the whole cabin premise while we stayed there. The other great point we encountered was the beach! it was just in front of us.  We had a choice of man-made swimming section and the beach itself, along with the bomb fire the staff created in the sand.
On the other hand, I was very dissatisfied with my "cabin" room.  The bathroom had a real decorated garden, which on itself wasn't the problem.  My main issue is that we were invaded with large roaches! Flying ones! there were other types of creepy nightly crawlers like silverfish.  Needless to say I did not sleep well the whole night there! What further complicated from getting a restful sleep was that I kept sinking between two full size beds placed together to look like a king size one.  While the food was delicious, many of the dishes were overpriced as I just wanted to leave and visit a local restaurant.  The staff were not as friendly and courteous I one would have expected with one exception.  My "cabin room" did not have a phone as I had questions after hour concerns such as getting ice, more things to snack, and water.   
Bottom line, if you want a mediocre place very close to the beach, then this is a place for you.

Bring your own Beach Towel!

I stayed here for the weekend with my bf. It is a nice place to chill out if thas what you looking for. Our room was clean the bed were confortable our room had a fan and it was ok if you dont look luxury bit very well decorated. The bathroom has no door but i think thas the concept to have a experience of feel like in little paradise where you are not worried about a door. The food is delicious the combination with local fruits and fish are great! Its winter here and rainy but even though the cabins were safe and secure. The place is very rustic desing which i look for.

Looking for relax out of the city

The space is very nice, well taken care of and clean. But watch out for the owner-- she'll try to grab your money every moment she can.

We booked 2 nights on AirBnB and almost no problems. The water in the bathroom wasn't working, but the owner just said to turn on the main valve. Still no water. The next day she finally had to call the plumber who fixed the water. It was fine-- it happens. No big deal.

When we asked to stay for a few nights extra, the owner said no problem but we might have to switch rooms (not a problem on our end).

The next day she tells us the rooms will cost more, and if we were to eat dinner there, there's an extra cover charge. We asked her why she didn't tell us earlier -- she said there was a misunderstanding. (There was no misunderstanding -- I'm fluent in English and my boyfriend is fluent in Spanish).

My fiance and I go to our room to discuss. When we come out a few minutes later to say we'll accept the extra charge and that we would like to continue our stay, she says the room is no longer available, was booked and paid for by others.

She never asked us to pay in advance when we asked for the room (we absolutely would have).

Instead, she found other guests who would pay more and essentially forced us to leave the property.

Some other things: 
-- the rooms were not cleaned daily 
-- the owner will kindly (and often) offer you a drink, a coconut water, etc -- expect to see your tab grow quickly

You think its a value -- its not.

This place has a beautiful view, food is delicious and the people is very nice. I went with my boyfriend and we really enjoyed but the AC didn't work at night which was bad because it was hot. However the place is nice and another thing that we didn't like at all were the bed were individual instead of queen bed which wasn't comfortable to us. Either there aren't wifi either music.

Beautiful Place to visit with your couple

Treat your self to a little bit of tropical beach life. The room are very nice and my bed was comfortable. The price includes breakfast which are top notch. The owners and the help go out of their way to make sure you have a good stay. I took a couple days of net casting lessons and many other activities and tours are available. I would diffidently stay here again!
