Lovely spot for a surf getaway. Steps from the beach but a couple hundred meters down from the party/hang/party at the surf clubs. Nice staff, convenient kitchen and bar service, chill pool - peaceful and serene.

A very nice small cozy hotel with a great tasting hamburger on the menu. This is very close to the busy streets in El Paredon but with enough distance to be quiet and avoid the noise and business. It's just a few meters away from the beach, which is awesome.

Looks nice but if you’re happy without sleep beyond 1am (this is the time of typing this) they will play loud music at the bar - other guests will be disrespectful of your stay and you won’t get any sleep ! Ac works in the room - showers are ok (but cold) — rooms are comfortable (although you can sleep until the noise has stopped.

Nice place to spend time with the family. Clean and good pool. It would be great to get Coen towels every day, perhaps we should have asked. Food and drinks are ok. We ended up going elsewhere for breakfast most mornings. We ended up buying a lot of bottled water everywhere in El Paredon, it would be great if they have waterfilters you can fill your bottle up with, like we saw in most places in Guatemala. The accommodation was good, comfortable beds, lots of fans as there is no airco, spacious.

The hotel room (the cabaña) didn’t have A/C which is so inconvenient but we saw on the website that had an A/C that’s why we picked the hotel. The light in the room didn’t work so the room was so dark. We ask about it but they said that after 10pm the light will work but didn’t work. The service is so slow and the bill is messy most of the time they overcharged so we had to checked everything. The managers or owners of the hotel live there so you can’t make any noise after 10pm because they could get disturb! They left just 2 towels in a 5 person cabin so I asked twice and I never got it. The place is so small. We paid for 2 nights but we decided to leave because without A/C it’s impossible to sleep!! The cabin was so HOT! I wouldn’t go back.

El personal fue muy amable y nos dieron la habitacion a tiempo, sin embargo el bungalow donde me hospede el baño tenia un olor muy fuerte a desagüe. Ademas que la luz no era muy buena ya que al conectar el secador la luz se ponia tenue. La comida es demasiado cara y no lo vale.

Lindas instalaciones, la piscina no es tan grande pero estuvo perfecta para nosotros derivado a que no habían muchas personas en el hotel, de hecho estuvimos bastante tiempo solos en ella.
Las habitaciones están bastante limpias, fue muy fácil hacer el checkin y checkout! Nos dejaron quedarnos después de entregar la habitación.
A unos cuantos metros caminando está la playa.
