Hotel Michanti
9.0 (89 reviews)

Hotel Michanti ★★★

📍 CA 2E, El Zonte

"This is a cute and clean hotel with good amenities. It is small so it is a great place to connect with other people if you are not the shy, keep it to myself kind of person. I was extremely disappointed, however, at the fact that they advertise activities such as yoga and other stuff but there was nothing available. I actually booked this hotel because, supposedly, there was going to be yoga a couple of days during my short stay there. I even asked about this before getting there. Well, when I got there, I was told that they didn't have a yoga teacher so they had no yoga classes going on at the moment. As far as other activities (exercise related), they just told me "no, we don't have today". I felt that I needed a partial refund for this reason. They even have yoga advertised at the gate. The best part about the place is the staff though. All of them are friendly, polite, and helpful."

Garten Hotel
9.3 (53 reviews)

Garten Hotel ★★★★

📍 Avenida del Mar Playa, Km 53, El Zonte

"The facilities here are generally outdated, and this is considered the best hotel in the area. Our group of four friends checked in, and breakfast cost over 300 RMB per serving, but it was incredibly basic. Ordering extra at the hotel would only cost $10. The funny thing is, breakfast for the four of us only included one serving of yogurt, so we had to share it? Orange juice was also only included in the breakfast, and refills cost extra. Unbelievable!"

Palo Verde Sustainable Hotel
9.4 (100 reviews)

Palo Verde Sustainable Hotel ★★★

📍 CA-2 km 53, No12, El Zonte

La Canasta
9.0 (12 reviews)

La Canasta ★★

📍 km 52 playa, El Zonte

"The staff were very friendly and helpful, and the doors lock with keys, which made the room feel secure. It is a great place for surfers, especially because of the location and the relaxed atmosphere. I stayed in a private room with a big bed, a table, a shelf and AC, which I could adjust myself. The bathroom was shared with one other room, so it still felt quite private. The room was cleaned after check-out or, depending on the number of nights, also in between. Since I had the room to myself, it never felt dirty. There is also a small store with the essentials integrated, which is very convenient, and there are two restaurants directly there as well. Overall, it was a top experience and I would definitely recommend staying here, especially for surfers looking for a relaxed stay in El Zonte. :)"

📍 Amalfi surf Lodge Pasaje 1 Block A #8, El Zonte

"It hasn't been long since it opened, so it is very clean, and the owner and staff are all incredibly friendly. Although it is close to the main road, it is very quiet at night compared to other accommodations. I highly recommend it!!! Just be careful when walking around late at night, as dogs bark in the alleyways!!"

Hotel Esencia Nativa
8.7 (38 reviews)

Hotel Esencia Nativa ★★

📍 Playa, El Zonte

"We stayed three nights here and it was a wonderful experience. Very helpful, friendly & welcoming staff who spoke English well. The room was basic but had everything we needed & had a balcony space with hammock overlooking the river. Alex the host was super kind & welcoming to us. We felt like an extension of the community family there. Morning yoga with Zonte Yoga was wonderful, we enjoyed the workout space above the rooms with ocean views. The restaurant food onsite was very good. Breakfast was included in our stay; the fresh orange juice for breakfast was amazing. The avocado toast was the best; super fresh & delicious. The coffee is very good here as well. The only thing that could be improved is the water pressure otherwise there was hot water that could be adjusted, soap & shampoo along with towels is provided. Also the work out space above should be closed off during certain hours as late night & early evening we could hear children up there running around stomping above our heads. But otherwise everything was great & we really enjoyed our stay there. Recommend this place to all types of travelers."

Hotel Esencia Nativa ★★
"We had an excellent experience at Esencia Nativa. The accommodations were excellent, super clean, killer views of the ocean. The pool was awesome and so were the popsicles. Our favorite part was the rad people we met there! The owner, Alex, is a super solid guy and his passion for surfing and excellent customer service shone through!"

Olas Permanentes El Zonte ★★★
"The hotel was under construction, but despite that, the facilities were really poor. It was a shared (tiny) bathroom for 4 rooms. Toiled barely worked and the shower was cold. All that is fine if the price is low, but it was not a cheap hotel. I won't stay here again."

Almare Zonte - BeachFront Glamping Hotel ★★★
"We loved the set up here at Almare. Being in front of the ocean is a magnificent experience. The swimming pool , the dome the breakfast hut all facing the ocean view. It's such an exclusive experience. I would definitely recommend staying here. The Dome is so neat being able to have a clear oceanfront view from your bed... very modern decor."
