Best place to stay in El Zonte! We had our wedding here on the rooftop and the penthouse was a perfect bridal suite, then honeymoon suite. Views are unmatched. The pool is so relaxing. Food is delicious. Access down to the best beach with caves reachable during low tide mornings-phenomenal nature! Garten has the best vibes and fantastic management. Highly recommend for a small intimate wedding - you will not be disappointed!! We will be back many times for years to come.

The villa was very pretty and the views of the hotel to beach her beautiful. The small fault that the Hotel had was the cleaning of the bathrooms could be a bit better but other than that nothing to bad what makes us stay five star stay is the hospitality from its workers. They were extremely accommodating to any requests and did their best at all times to make Our stay special.

Spectacular view from the penthouse. Stair access to the beautiful black sand beach. Low density, only shared the pool with a few other people 2 days of our week long stay. Local are around the hotel is charming, hotel staff were excellent. The breakfast is delicious. Only complaint is you get one drink (coffee, juice). The orange juice is fresh squeezed and you will want more.

Perfect Escape in El Zonte

We recently had the pleasure of staying at Garten Hotel in El Zonte, and it was nothing short of a dream. From the moment we arrived, I knew we had chosen the right place for a relaxing and rejuvenating getaway. The villa itself is beautifully designed, blending modern luxury with the natural beauty of El Salvador. The spacious open-plan living area is flooded with light, thanks to large windows that offer stunning views of the lush surroundings. Whether you’re lounging inside or relaxing on the terrace, the sound of the waves in the distance is incredibly soothing. One of the highlights of the villa is the private pool, which was the perfect place to cool off after a day exploring the nearby beaches. Speaking of which, the villa is just a short walk from the pristine surf breaks that El Zonte is famous for. If you're into surfing or just love the ocean, this location is ideal. The kitchen is fully equipped with top-notch appliances. We also had access to a lovely outdoor dining area, perfect for enjoying meals while taking in the incredible sunsets. What truly made the stay special, however, was the hospitality. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel at home, offering local tips and ensuring our stay was as comfortable as possible. Overall, Garten Hotel in El Zonte exceeded all expectations. Whether you're looking for a romantic escape, a family vacation, or a surf trip with friends, this villa is a hidden gem.

The hotel is pretty nice. It has a nice beach front, but not in front of el zonte surf spot. We stayed at the villas and are beautiful with a small private pool. We didn’t know that there was another common pool where the villas were. Nobody told us. We saw it on our last day. It was a shame but ok. Definitely a must stay place

We love Garten Zonte! Comfortable large room, delicious food, good drinks, stunning pool with ocean views, staff is ready for any requests and delivers quickly with a smile and always so friendly. The beach below is spectacular. The resident parakeet Pistachio completely made my day flying on my shoulder and giving me a smooch!!! We can’t wait to return for our wedding on the rooftop patio next year:)
