The location was extremely beautiful as were the rooms. We booked two, one bungalow for 6 people and a room for 4 with two queens beds. The beds in the bungalow were very springy and seemed older but still a good stay. The restaurant and 4 pools and beach were amazing. One of a kind sunsets and the food and drinks at the bar are really good and priced well for beach front views. We will definitely be back and highly recommend buying snacks like chips, dips and sandwiches before you arrive . The food is great there but def need more snack options for on the go or for kids who wanna snack, juices, candies etc

Very relaxing resort. Plenty of pools and the staff were wonderful, however language barrier was an issue. One thing that would enhance the experience would be events at the hotel, example- līve music or shows, local craft nights, etc.. A representative to book tours would be an added bonus for customers who don’t rent a car. There is nothing nearby so if you don’t have a vehicle..after a couple days you’ve covered the whole resort and there is nothing to do. When we arrived SAL , we waited 1 1/2 hrs waiting for Christian (our shuttle driver), we had no idea what he looked like and he spoke no English. When we rented a car for the last 2days- Christian said we can just go into the terminal & get our car and no reservation required. Not true, we couldn’t get into the terminal, car agency rep had to come out and they didn’t speak any English. Luckily we had poki-fi and signed on and got car rental online. Other than language barriers- we were very pleased with the Hotel Estero Y Mar resort. It’s a beautiful resort. however if we ever go to El-Salvador again~ we’d rent a resort in La-Libertad

My family & i come here every time we travel to El Salvador. Beautiful place to stay & SOOO peaceful the staff is 100% the best & reliable. A beautiful hidden gem not too far from the airport & they connected us with someone who could pick us up at the airport his name was Andres what a beautiful soul, so genuine. I forgot the staff members name he was a server a nice man every year we go he is always attentive with everything. Every year we go back he's always so nice & remembers us the hotel staff checking you in is so pleasant & upgraded us to an ocean view when i book through expedia such an amazing establishment.

Samira, Sacramento

It's a beautiful property by the beach but the quality of the food is terrible, they use frozen ingredients and cans and I found piece of plastics inside of my food (inside of casamiento) and you have to drive more than half an hour to just find a regular restaurant to eat, you smell of sewer everywhere in the hotel, this smell was in my room and i feel it all 7 days of my stay, I throw up few times at the night and I wasnt able to go to bathroom because of this smell, I asked them to fix it but it was just good for few hours then you smell it again, I asked them to use a air refreshener in my room to help the smell go but they used the bug killer spray in my room and whole night I had pain in my chest and caughed and when i woke up in the morning I saw lots of dead bugs in my room that I found out it wasnt air refreshener because nobody knows English there they use app to translate, it was a terrible experince at front desk and when I was going to order food, nobody understand English and this is terrible for a hotel, lots of people that I saw staying there was local or Spanish people, I saw few tourist and I dont recomend this hotel for tourist. When I reserved the hotel I got %20 off for Spa and I planned to use spa almost everyday but unfortunately they had no spa they said the person that do the spa is sick and she is not gonna come back in few months, then all my plan for relaxing was gone. The staff are very nice but I dont recomend this hotel to no one.
