    Great hotel, very accommodating and close to the shops

    This is NOT on the beach, I know on google maps it looks like it is but it's not BUT it is close to the water, just down the street. I also stayed at another hotel, and this was better all in all but the hike to get to the room was ALOT and we dreaded it every time. This is also a family friendly hotel and there are kids everywhere, so if hearing kids early in the morning is not your jam, this is not the place for you.

    We stayed in two hotels during our stay, and this was the preferred one! The manager/owner speaks fluent English which is such a place when no one around speaks English! She let us get into our room hours early as well which is nice when you're traveling. These beds were way more comfortable, and the AC worked well, the bathroom is also spacious and there's a TV in your room. Two different pool areas and many lounge areas.

    Good enough.

    WiFi had a good signal but barely worked. My room, although spacious and clean, was very basic - there was no table or desk or anything like that.

    Location is OK, close to the main street but far enough to muffle the noise. The place is huge, with individual rooms grouped in twos and threes in separate buildings that give more privacy. The bathroom was clean, with cold water only (no big deal in the hot climate over there). There is a pool.

    Pool area a little basic. Staff weren't helpful with booking an onward taxi, just gave me a number.

    Quirky room was Hobbit-like from the outside and spacious within. Breakfast served on our balcony was a good touch. Very convenient for the centre of El Tunco, but didn't notice any noise from the centre at night Comfortable hammocks.

    I’m giving it a 9 only because the Wi-Fi in my room didn’t work. I had to sit right outside of my room or go to other areas to use it. I went with the mindset of unplugging from technology as much as possible so that was ok I guess. But if you really need Wi-Fi it that is something to confirm with hotel first.

    Enjoyed the stay, and excellent customer service. Every staff member I interacted with was kind and helpful. The whole experience and atmosphere at El Tunco was wondering.

    Poor value for your money

    Especially the bathrooms are really dated, changed room 3 times due to several problems (bad odour, disfunctional ventilation, leaking tap). Showers without hot water. Can be quite noisy (at night) especially during weekends. Poor wifi in rooms. Expensive for what you get.

    Comfortable beds. Decent room with AC. Nice 2 pools which are often cleaned. Good breakfast which is included in the price. Helpful staff (mostly communicates only in Spanish) but is unable to advice much on activities.

    LOVED Tunco Lodge. It is a beautiful property right in the mix of things in El Tunco!

    The property goes pretty vertical and all though it was not a total deal breaker walking up the steep hill to our room was a bit of a hike.

    Breakfast was included in our stay and we ate it both mornings. It was the typical El Salvadorian breakfast, which I love, and they delivered it up to our room each day!

    The beds were just ok, no fridge in the room, no closet to hang your clothes, problem with the TV and A/C

    The breakfast was limited, small portion, restaurant was really hot with no airflow. I stayed there 3 nights, but only had the breakfast the first morning because it wasn't worth getting up for.
