10/10 Excellent

The area is developing. This hotel is beautiful and the staff very nice. Only things to consider.... No hot water, parking space limited and that the beach sand is from volcanic rocks and it's so hot you can't stand on it.

Big traveler.. Never in my life have I seen guests and employees form such a high level of community, comfort, teamwork and thoughtfulness as I did during my stay at swell this past weekend. Some may disagree specifically to this weekend, but I couldn’t be more excited to come back and see what this beautiful property will be again. Appreciate everything you guys, keep hope 🌋🏄‍♂️🌴

Amazing spot with friendly and helpful staff. They organized shuttles to Antigua for us and we were able to rent surf boards on site which was very convenient. Every meal we had was amazing.

Very chill place. Adults only. Super relaxed and friendly staff. We had a bungalow that was nicely decorated and spacious. Food was really good too.

Súper cute, friendly, close to the beach. Staff super nice and fresh food. It is very hot, bring fresh clothes no a/c, but it is beautiful.

6/10 Okay

Our sheets were dirty. Our slider door lock was broken. No extra towels for the beach.

8/10 Good

Nice boutique hotel. Nice pool. My room had the bedroom upstairs and the bathroom downstairs. The stairs was a little steep in design. I would've opted for a room that has the bathroom on the same level (it's a hassle to use it at night). There are cats and one slept on my extra bed, which I thought was cute, but just fyi for those with cat allergies. The room is not airconditioned but there were adequate fans. The area (Paredon) has a lot of bugs, definitely bring some bug spray. Friendly staff. Wifi was patchy, I had the room farthest from the lounge area but the wifi worked better at the lounge area. Easy walk to the beach.

Lovely Oasis

We came during the hottest time of the year and Swell became our oasis! The swim up pool side room was spacious, clean, and the a/c was cold!!!!! I love the idea of the pretty open air bathrooms and rain showers (no hot water necessary) but it still is a hot sweaty sauna this time of year and I prefer my morning ‘business meeting’ a little cooler. Food is great, fresh, delicious coffee every morning. I love that you can help yourself all day to drinks from the cooler. Daily room cleaning. We barely left the comfort of the beautiful hotel. Too hot to go to the beach until sunset. No need to go anywhere else. Be aware you must pay in cash here. For your stay and everything or they will charge 7% for using a card.

Hôtel de petite taille, endroit paradisiaque pour

Séjour de 2 nuits en suite donnant sur la piscine : chambre très spacieuse avec patio donnant directement sur la piscine, coin sofa et sdb ouverte sur le ciel. Clim ds la chambre. Matelas posé sur une assise en béton ciré, moyennement confortable. Ambiance très cool et relax. Hôtel de petite taille tenu par un jeune coup’e franco canadien. Personnel au top. Restauration sur place avec carte courte mais de qualité, un peu p’us onéreuse que les restaurants alentours (qui ont ambiance surfeur et standing moindre) Pas d’eau chaude, ce qui n’est pas très gênant vu le climat. Apportez votre sèche cheveux et anti moustiques ! Il serait souhaitable de rajouter des alèses sur les matelas
