Absolutely amazing hotel. Beautiful room, gorgeous views and grounds, gourmet food and friendliest staff. We stayed there for 8 nights and absolutely loved it. Hotel offers various water activities, free paddleboard and kayaks and very reasonable boat and jetski rental. Room was spacious and clean, food in the restaurant delicious. Best papusas and seafood in entire El Salvador. They also have really good coffee and complimentary breakfast

The hotel is at the end of the narrow dirt road of the lake and is almost no street lights. It is too far away from the other hotels and water activities. Please consider this as you will be isolated from the rest of the island unless this is your objective. However, we found that the hotel does not offer enough amenities to make it worth while. There is one jetski and several padel boards and kayaks which will require you to have some level of fitness. There pool is dated and needed repairs (not how it was advertised) But please consider the fact the hotel sits on the south side of the lake which the mountain will cover the hotel earlier in the day which limits the sun light. This made the place seem darker and less conducent to stay out in the water. Our stay was in first week of December (for a point of reference) and this side of the lake was pretty lonely. If you're looking for a more active vibe this is not it. The have a day pass charge of $25 for each person and you are not allowed into any of the rooms. After a certain time you will not be allowed into the docking area near the water. My recommendation is to stay closer to the North eastern side of the island (towards the entrance) to take full advantage of the restaurant, bars and water activities.

The hotel is well taken care of. The hotel has a dock which you can sit down and relax while enjoying the view of the water. The staff is very friendly and offer superior service. The food is delicious and prepared in a timely manner. Josue was the mastermind behind the coffee that was sold. The coffee was great and he provided us with where the coffee was grown and how to enjoy.
