We just stayed 10 nights in this hotel and it was great. The staff was very friendly and accomodating regardless of the language barrier. It was quiet..well kept..and i felt no issues with security at all. the pool was basically always clean given thatvthe wind is always blowing and leaves do blow in regularly. I did take the time to clean out leaves as needed but that just kept me busy..lol. I would on one hand make a couole small recommendations however. Perhaps the owners should consider installing fridges in the rooms and a coffe maker. I like to be up early in he mornings to watch the sun come up and listen to the birds so a coffe maker would be great instead of having to wait until 7:30 am. The breakfast was good and just enough to get the day started. people will always find a reason to complain about something but i would return again. The recommendations i stated are not complaints but i believe those 2 items would really be beneficial to the hotel. Regards, Dean from Canada.

Extremely disappointed in this Property to the point that we were unable to stay. Checked in, went to the room, found Two beds, no tables or chairs or rugs, no hot water, concrete floor, AC shaky at best, one towel, I could go on but instead went and checked out. Property refused to give a refund, even though it was clearly not as advertised. Very disappointed.

The staff was excellent but I wish we had been made aware that there was no hot water, that the laundry facilities are only available in the early morning, and that the AC unit didn’t work very well. Otherwise it’s a beautiful property within walking distance of the beach and the staff was very kind and helpful.

It’s a beautiful setting with banana trees on a fairly large setting in a remote area. Very basic and rugged accommodations but charming. A full size pool is ideal for relaxing while enjoying the breeze on a hamaca.

The property was all a lie.you can see the downstairs through the plywood floor. The room only had 1 electric outlet and it was coming out of the wall. The chair in the room was broken and the cushion shredded. The dresser was broken. The lights in the bathroom and the bedroom had open electric wires. This property was unsafe. I could not stay more than one night. I have not recieved a refund!!!!!

An ok option in San Juan Del Sur

This motel is up for sale right now and being looked after by the real estate agent who is selling it. The location is ok, it is one block from the beach and about a 15 minute walk to town along the beach. It is right at the entrance to the walk to the Jesus statue which takes about 30 minutes uphill. It costs $2 and you get a nice view of the bay etc. We stayed in a deluxe room which was basic. It had aircon but did not have a TV or wifi. Our room was clean when we arrived but wasn't cleaned during our three nights there. Breakfast was good, toast, and pintos gallos with coffee and juice. There is a nice outdoor pool however they rented it out one day while we were staying there . Its not a bad place to stay if you aren't to picky and maybe someone will buy it and fix it up. We might stay here again.

Quiet resort like hotel on the outskirts

We stayed in a budget room at El Pacifico, this means no hot water and no A/C. You don't need hot water as it's so hot outside but my husband struggled with the no A/C. Keep this in mind when booking your room. The hotel had a resort feeling with a bar and a pool. The staff are voulenteers on a work away program and very knowledgable and friendly. The location of the hotel is about 15 min from town. You walk along the beach while is both beautiful and peaceful. The only drawback was that it got dark early when we were there (November) and we didn't want to walk homeboy in the dark so often we weren't able to enjoy supper as there's is no food at the hotel. You can also take a cab back to the hotel if your budget allows. All in all, we enjoyed our stay and I would recommend the hotel.
