The room was spacious and clean. The common areas were nice and clean and well kept. The pool was lovely. There is a restaurant on site and all the food I tried was very good. All the staff are extremely helpful, kind, and professional. The hotel is on the far end of town so it’s very quiet and private, yet you’re only 50 feet from the beach. It was a pleasant day and I would go again.

I love this quaint little hotel on the perimeter of El Paredon. Great pool, friendly staff and 2 minute walk to the Pacific Ocean and beach. You must try the ceviche. The rooms are ok and note the shower isn’t hot but the temperature was 31 Celsius so it was ok. The vibe is welcoming here and you’re a short walk into town.
This ceviche is very good.
The breakfast is delicious.
Coffee with a view.
Drink by the pool. Por que non ?

I recently stayed at this hotel and had a wonderful experience. The entire place was spotless, very clean, and well-maintained. The location is perfect, just a short walk to the beach, which made my stay even more enjoyable. Valentina, the manager, was extremely kind and attentive, and the rest of the staff were just as friendly and welcoming. Their excellent service truly made me feel at home. Overall, it was a very pleasant stay. I highly recommend this hotel and would definitely come back!

The room was quite nice but they really need to wash the floor rugs.The communication with the front staff was pretty much nil. They don’t speak any English. There was no hot water at all in the shower no matter what time of day. Maybe solar panels or hot water tanks? The pool is lovely. It is right by the beach and that is awesome! It is also within walking distance to the town. Overall, not bad. The pool is a huge bonus!
