Not worth the money

BEWARE not close to the airport at all. Reception was closed at arrival and had to wait long to get keys to our room. Reception said no connection for Uber and their driver charged $40.00 back to the airport, we realized uber app works perfect but by the time the Uber arrived was almost 30 mins, and we had to use their service to avoid being late to the airport. Uber would have charged under $15.00 bad customer service.

Look no further if you are looking for a place to stay on the beach. This hotel is absolutely amazing, quiet and uncrowded. You are submerged into the Garden of Eden from the moment you walk in. The palms and lush greens provide comfort, privacy, and shade. There are four different pools, so if you are traveling with family and kids, you can have them occupied all day long. The place is also like a mini zoo adding to the "jungle experience": there is a little pond with an alligator and turtles, one huge pen with monkeys and three bright Macaw parrots walking around for your enjoyment. The flowers, the greens and many little and large statues, fountains all around the property show a lot of love and dedication that the owners put into this place. There are also multiple hammocks, gazebos and private spaces all around the property. At night the grounds are lit with led lights all around the walkways and hanging from the trees - a magical experience! The rear side of the property overlooks the river and mangrove forest with many herons. The hotel provides a boat tour on the river through mangroves for $10 which I found a nice addition to the whole experience. The restaurant menu is diverse and you can find everything you need for your taste including your kids. I mostly ate seafood: seviches, stews, fried fish, etc. Everything was very fresh and really tasty. Overall the service was excellent throughout, the beach is amazing, the room was perfect and A/C worked great. Enjoy!

Llanta pacha

Todo estuvo bien con respecto y al servicio, pero cuando íbamos a salir nos dimos cuenta que nuestro carro tenía una llanta pacha , por que al entrar al establecimiento estaban trabajando y se descuidaron dejando clavos , y tornillos en suelo por lo cual cuando entramos la llanta trasera del conductor se le metieron dos grandes tornillos los cuales destruyeron una de mis llantas y el señor del parqueo nos avisó antes de salir del hotel, ese fue el único inconveniente que tuvimos

Beautiful property, we loved the general vibe and feel. There are a variety of different pools and all are surrounded by hammocks and loungers. There are so many plants and trees too in the pool areas, it feels peaceful and is nice to have some shade when you want it. We loved the turtles, birds, and monkeys. The beachside bar and restaurant is a fun place, and the beach itself is amazing. Be careful to keep track of all your towels and not forget any by the pool or they may try to charge you for them.

If you take on the El Salvador adventure this is a great option to stay a few days. Be very careful about following the google website directions link. Initially, they took us way in the wrong direction. However, typing the hotel name and address into Google maps took care of that problem. The property is older but seems very well maintained. The pools, lights, and greenery were very beautiful—especially in the evening. Their restaurant on the beach was also very nice.
