My stay at El Caite was absolutely amazing! The location is unbeatable, right in the heart of San Juan del Sur, close to everything, including great restaurants, shops, and all the main attractions. The bar downstairs is simply outstanding. The service is impeccable, the staff are friendly and professional, and the overall atmosphere is exactly what you want when staying in a vibrant beach town. I will definitely be coming back without hesitation and highly recommend this place to anyone visiting San Juan del Sur!

Safe did not work and staff did not seem interested. Instead they said the safes in all the rooms didn’t work and shrugged shoulders. Otherwise, the room was quite clean and well-kept. I had to leave before breakfast so I did not have a chance to try it.

air conditioning was excellent. We didn't eat breakfast but were offered it. It's a good restaurant so assuming it would be good. The only drawback is for older people as there's a steep set of stairs if your room is top floor. Otherwise, it seems good value.
