The room we booked was awesome with ac and a clean bathroom in it with a shower, they have different options according to your likes. The staff is super nice, friendly & accommodating. The beach is just 10mins walking distance, this place is a hidden gem to relax in….100% recommend it.

Al principio, nuestra experiencia fue deficiente. Al registrarse, la habitación estaba extremadamente caliente, y la recepcionista afirmó que el aire acondicionado funcionaba correctamente, lo que implica que el problema estaba en nuestra parte. Afortunadamente, un miembro del personal servicial investigó y descubrió que el aire acondicionado estaba descompuesto. Después de una larga espera, finalmente nos trasladaron a una habitación con aire acondicionado que funcionaba, y el resto de nuestra estancia fue agradable.

I have traveled all over the world in hostels and hotels and this is the absolute worst stay experience I have ever had. Not only is it deceiving in it's advertising, upon arrival there was no help at registration, our reservation was lost, the hotel staff gave us zero information regarding BASIC amenities, and the employee lied about a cash transaction that was made regarding an extra night stay. There is no working shower. There is no breakfast included because there is no kitchen/restaurant or bar, there is nothing. Pool is dirty. Rooms are full of bugs. No one has an idea what is going on. Please do yourself a favor and avoid booking this stay. It is not as advertised. I've stayed in nicer campsites.

The hotel is beautiful but i was in the only room without air-conditioning. The bathroom smelled like feces the entire time.
The staff is extremely kind and helpful tho. I would give the beds 2/10.
Down side. The place definitely has a cockroach issue.
But again ill say the staff is great. They get 10/10

El lugar es bonito y la habitación está aceptable considerando el precio, pero el baño compartido da pena, aparte de tener una ventada donde se ve todo por que no tiene cortina (literalmente estaba en el toilet viendo al guardián limpiar el patio) también toma en cuenta que si está lloviendo vas a tener un mal rato si necesitas usarlo.
Cuando hicimos check in nos dijeron que podíamos entrar y salir a toda hora sin problema, salimos esa primer noche y volvimos al rededor de la 1:10am, para nuestra sorpresa estaba la puerta con candado… estuvimos tocando, gritando y llamando por teléfono y nadie nos abrió; nos tocó treparnos la baranda (2 metros aprox) para poder entrar. El día del check out nos quedamos encerradas en nuestra habitación porque la manilla de la puerta se dañó, tuvimos que gritar desde la ventada y el guardián nos escuchó y nos ayudó a abrir desde afuera, nadie al menos ofreció una disculpa por lo ocurrido.
El desayuno que incluye lo pedí solo el primer día (me hospedé dos) porque me salieron 2 pelos en la comida.
De verdad que experiencia en este hotel!!

TV doesn’t work. Toilet won’t flush. Booked the $29 option $33 after tax but upon arrival told that bathroom is separate and breakfast was not included like advertised. Paid $60 more just to upgrade to the bungalow with no TV and bugs. Worst decision but we drove so far from airport to get here.

This place should not be in Expedia's list of properties. Place and pool dirty. When we arrived, there were no other guests in the property, very unsecure location. We decided not to stay, we rented an Airbn in El Tunco much much better thatn this one.

Looks were sure deceiving when it came to this place. I would not recommend it at all. The pool was dirty, the AC was not working properly, not much to do. This place was run down. I left and I didn’t care if I got refunded or not. I was not pleased and ended up leaving an hour after arriving and finding a better place to stay.

Horrible hotel, couldn't leave fast enough.

So dissapointed by this hotel. For the price we paid (£230) for 2 nights, we were expecting somewhere much, much nicer. The property may have looked like the photos a decade ago, but it has clearly not been looked after for a very long time.
The pool looked disgusting so we didn't use it once.
The room was dirty and with cracked and faded paint.
The only redeeming feature was that the A/C was effective in our room.

TL:DR: DO NOT STAY HERE. This place sucked to be honest.

Keeping this review short, the room I booked for myself and three of my friends was a bunk bed with a queen bed. When we got our room it was a bunk bed and a full bed. Not what was promised and paid for. The “one minute walk to the beach” is a lie as it’s actually a 7-10 minute walk down about seven or eight blocks. If you try to go behind the village and directly to the beach, it’s apparently just a river or something, so you can’t enter the beach that way.

Our room was dirty and the pools at the village were gross. My bunk bed literally had spider webs on the corners. The WiFi also just does not work. I was excited to finally have a good internet connection but I get one bar, if any connection at all, from my room. The free breakfast was made up of the worst bread and coffee I have ever eaten, some scrambled eggs, and two plantains. We saw a sign advertising an all you can eat breakfast for $8 and laughed and we had to look around for a single worker to even be served our “free breakfast” that was included with the booking.

My roommates and I solely booked this place because it was the closest to the beach and cheap, but I promise you, DO NOT STAY HERE.

Got to the property and the gate had a chain & lock on it. It was pitch black dark no lights. Thank God my driver waited. After a hr of waiting a man came & told me there was no reservation. No one spoke English. I had to find a hotel late at night. Called Expedia next day they could not get in contact with hotel. I paid out of pocket for the rest of my stay. EXpedia would not refund or help me with another hotel. I called eveyday while in Elsalvador. They kept telling me they could not contact anyone. I got a partial refund when i got back home. The dis not want to. Stayed on the phone for 3 hrs while they tried to keep calling hotel

Do NOT come here. Terrible experience. If you enjoy cockroaches, centipedes, animal feces on the bed, and multiple power outages throughout the night, public showers where the doors don’t lock, shower heads that trickle down, this is the PLACE FOR YOU! If you don’t like those things, run. This place is nothing as it is advertised, it’s a scam. Do not waste your money. Go anywhere else. They also advertise free breakfast included, which they scoffed at when we asked for. We should receive a full refund for this trickery.

I recommend you consider looking at all reviews. I had booked 2 rooms for 4 guest for 2 nights. After showing up to the nasty hotel Vanessa the lady that greads you advised their was only 1 room available. I tried getting my full refund from expedia but management at that hotel lied and said they had offered me 2 better rooms for the same price to avoid me getting my full refund. They are liars, unethical, and unprofessional. The ratings on Santorini Village is horrible. Customers service is terrible, the pools are dirty, when you show up you will regret staying here. Please boycott Santorini Village.

We where left to care for ourselves. we where the only ones at the property at a time and the light went of because of a storm try finding someone to check the switches for the light and no one was to be found we where there about 4hrs with no light. Also the pool even though we got in it the pump wasn’t working to clean the water. This was basically serve yourself kinda place. If I had any questions there was no one to answer them. Whoever owns this place should care for it and hire staff and stop stealing peoples money for something that is nothing like the pictures. Because the property doesn’t provide refund if cancel. They still charge for the first night.

We left

It was really dirty and uncomfortable, our bedsheets were stained and had bugs in them, the bathroom was not working properly and there were lizards in the room. The pool was very dirty as well. We left only an hour after arriving because we didn’t feel comfortable and we asked for a refund but didn’t get it.

Visiting the homeland with my family we decided to stay at Santorini given the proximity to the popular local beaches and restaurants as well as short drive to La Libertad. Santorini has all the basic amenities and Alex the grounds keeper was a wealth of knowledge and hospitality making our 4 nights stay a delight. My only concern was the lack of flexibility offered by the kitchen staff who only served breakfast between 8-9am, no before or after, which cause me to go without breakfasts 1 of the days there since I was 10min late returning from my morning run. Still Alex was amazing and offered me a cup of coffee to help me out on the missed breakfast

DO NOT book this place unless you are showing up within their check in hours. I had messaged Santorini through Expedia & WhatsApp a few days prior to check in to inform them we would be showing up at 11pm to ensure someone would be there to check us in. No response. Our Uber driver brings us there and had to help us unlock the gates as no one there, property completely dark. There was a nice woman staying at the property long term who said it’s a very loose show they are running. She shouted for the groundskeeper for us, no one around. So we tried a door and the first door we tried was open and seemed to be clean so between us and the woman, we decided we would just go to sleep there because it was late and would just deal with it in the morning. ABRUPTLY at 3am, there is a bang on the door, the groundskeeper had finally woken up and was yelling at us that we had no right and we are intruding and he was going to call the cops on us. I was trying to explain to him we had a reservation but he was not listening to me. Eventually after 10 minutes, he said we will discuss it in the am. At 6am, another bang on the door. So we go speak with him, he finally accepted we had a reservation and let us stay? I tried reaching out to Expedia for a refund and long behold, they couldn’t get a hold of the property (because they don’t respond). SUM UP - place has potential, no management present, unorganized loose process, OH and they tell you no breakfast incl when it is. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND.

This property is a 2 minute walk from El Tunco gate entrance! There is a lovely man that watches over the place and is there for whatever you need and he is so kind and wonderful! AC is awesome! Pools & lounging area are great! King size bed I picked was great and comfy! Sheets don’t fit perfectly but honestly it was fine to fix in the morning with no other issues! Great quiet area for the price! Would stay again

I arrived about 5:pm in the airport, picked up my car rental, 5:30 pm, then head it to have dinner, I arrived at the hotel 7:pmt, doors gate, gas locked, so we call just to say policy is to be in the hotel before 6:pm they told me to wait for 30 minutes until someone can come to unlock the gate & checking, I get penalized with a fee, not big deal of the fee, They told me I have to pay $30 more from my original booking, no problem with that, But no shower, no toilet, one twin bed with filty bedsheets, no tv, tiny room no chair or table to place my stuff. I will make it clear to any guest it’s your decision, make sure you pay cash what you think is fair, don’t fall for this hotel, it will show they don’t have rooms but they alway do, 5 minutes walk is many hotels in el tunco with so much to do inside. Don’t stay here unless you have no other choice.

DO NOT stay here. It’s so expensive for what they offer which is basically four walls and beds. We paid near $400 US dollars for 1 night, 2 tiny rooms where the bathrooms were not working well and very nasty sewer smell and not clean. The towels were too old and crunchy. They didn’t really want to give us more towels which I’ve never had an issue at hotels with this. A motel 6 is better than this. The pictures are misleading. Anything we asked for they couldn’t accommodate. There’s better and less pricey places to stay at el tunco. Why did I stay here? Because online it was only showing this place or farther options as available. Next time I am calling establishments themselves because when we got to el tunco there were plenty other places that had availability but online don’t show it. Anyways, lesson learned and hope this place does better or stops scamming people.
