spectacular, gorgeous hotel
I must definitely stay with them again!!!
The area still needs a lot of work but nothing happens in one day but it was definitely the best place I have stay the only thing I wish they offered pupusas you could find them outside the hotel but there it’s no way I would eat outside the resort but that it’s just me.

Very Nice
The place is located in a very nice setting. Service was 1st class all the way- the only problem was at check out they have an all online system that doesn't give you copies of what you spent.
Food was good. I'm 75 and went on the waterfall tour- never made it to the falls- too much hill climbing and rocks on the path- might be good trip for younger not so much for us old men. Had the coffee experience which was good.- No rock to climb it was at the hotel.
It's a very relaxing place we stayed one extra day and rate was higher than on VRBO but they did so many extra stuff it was ok. They arranged for our Covid Test to happen at the Villa.
The guy came to us- took test and emailed the results back. Sadly my friends from Nicaragua couldn't use the negative results as the government of Nicaragua only accepts tests for 2 clinics in El Salvador. Very strange so they ended up staying in a hotel in San Salvador to be re-tested (Negative again) - I used my negative test with no problem to come back to Houston.
All in all I might return again!
