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.

The room was nice and clean, the A/C worked great, the food and service were excellent, and the location on the beach was perfect. I'm only giving it a 4 instead of a 5 because there was no mention when booking that the shared bathroom didn't have hot water. I think it's unfair not to include that because it might affect some people's choice.

Great staff. Exceptional food. Unsurpassed location. Really good vibes. All kinds of amenities and good enough rooms. Would return. 10/10

Very nice hotel on the beach. Nice room and shower room. There are only 3 wooden loungers around a very small and cramped pool area. None of the 3 have cushions so you can't lie on them. Other properties along the beach front have larger communal areas and prooer loungers but only for hotel guests. Olas Permanentes lets anyone in off the beach.

Location is perfect right on the beach. Room was average. Beds and a/c were good but water didn't work some times and it was pretty tight on space in the main area. Also room was right on the road so you can here all the cars going by. Resturant attached was good and the free breakfast/water is nice. Overall it had some really great things and some not good things which makes it average.

The room was nice and the staff very pleasant. The food was good, a little expensive, however the beach and sunsets were awesome. Will return.

Olas Permanentes was great. A lovely and accommodating staff, great restaurant with a delicious complementary breakfast. Not to mention it’s right on the most beautiful beach which is also a premier place to learn surfing. It’s rustic, but exactly as described, and what I expected. Amazing sunsets into the ocean. I would return.

Great Breakfast and Dinner options Right on the Beach Fabulous Sunsets Good rooms but some shared bathrooms and showers Definitely will return

Accommodations basic but can upgrade to a private bath with tv. Construction everywhere which means noise! Pool being reqorked and most of the area near street. Including a 5 story building going up next door. Wish I knew... but the flip side. Nice staff, full breakfast, great location! The place is a restaurant too so lots of activity imcluding the surf side! Just beautiful! Saw a turtle release! The town is tiny with one paved road but great for culture and exploring. If you want an upscale experience, there are places that cater or in my case, a 20$ day pass was perfect:). Enjoy! Super safe and friendly.
