Guest Reviews
- Jamilex (10/5): - Absolutely amazing property- can’t wait to be back
- marcelo (10/5): - The area is developing. This hotel is beautiful and the staff very nice. Only things to consider.... No hot water, parking space limited and that the beach sand is from volcanic rocks and it's so hot you can't stand on it.
- Derek (10/5): - Big traveler.. Never in my life have I seen guests and employees form such a high level of community, comfort, teamwork and thoughtfulness as I did during my stay at swell this past weekend. Some may disagree specifically to this weekend, but I couldn’t be more excited to come back and see what this beautiful property will be again. Appreciate everything you guys, keep hope 🌋🏄♂️🌴
- Jorge (10/5): - X
- Victor (10/5): - Great place. One block from the beach. Pool and service was top notch. Great for family and couples looking to relax.
- Erling (10/5): Chilla - Underbart ställe att chilla på med dusch och toalett utomhus
- DANIELE (8/5): Hôtel de petite taille, endroit paradisiaque pour - Séjour de 2 nuits en suite donnant sur la piscine : chambre très spacieuse avec patio donnant directement sur la piscine, coin sofa et sdb ouverte sur le ciel. Clim ds la chambre. Matelas posé sur une assise en béton ciré, moyennement confortable. Ambiance très cool et relax. Hôtel de petite taille tenu par un jeune coup’e franco canadien. Personnel au top. Restauration sur place avec carte courte mais de qualité, un peu p’us onéreuse que les restaurants alentours (qui ont ambiance surfeur et standing moindre) Pas d’eau chaude, ce qui n’est pas très gênant vu le climat. Apportez votre sèche cheveux et anti moustiques ! Il serait souhaitable de rajouter des alèses sur les matelas
- Adriana (10/5): - Excelente como siempre! Sólo extrañamos el pan de banano.
- Paul (10/5): Great relaxing hotel in Paredón - Hotel is very nice and the rooms with AC are great (take note of other comments about the loft rooms) - it was quiet and relaxing - great pool (will do the pool rooms next time). Restaurant is geared mainly for breakfast and lunch rather than dinner. But plenty of places along the beach to try. Drinks and food are good a reasonably priced. Only thing to note (and not sure it’s on Hotels.com - and wasn’t mentioned when checked in) is if you pay by card they will add an additional 7% to the bill. Will definitely return :)
- Kevin (10/5): - Super Hotel, sehr schön und idyllisch, super Personal, gerne wieder!
- Oscar (8/5): - Me encanto el hotel y la amabilidad del personal. Tienen que mejorar el mantenimiento un poco, por lo demás muy recomendable
- Tareq (10/5): - Lovely hidden gem thanks to everyone that make this stay feel better then home Everything was beyond lovely and amazing ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Alejandro Johanna 🙌 and the entire staff
- Denise (10/5): Swell and dwell in peace - Sure thing! Here's the review written out: "I recently stayed at Swell and Surf hotel and had a fantastic experience. The food was delicious, with a variety of options to choose from. The ambience was wonderful, creating a relaxing atmosphere throughout my stay. The hotel was clean, and had comfy beds.
- Orfania (8/5): - Good location, service was ok.
- Alfredo (10/5): - Todo lindo
- Verified traveler (10/5): Perfect for a get away weekend - Excelente aunque los zancudos en la zona son terribles. Pero el hotel es muy lindo.
- Aida (10/5): - Wonderful bed and Food, great for couple getaway
- Kenneth (10/5): - Súper cute, friendly, close to the beach. Staff super nice and fresh food. It is very hot, bring fresh clothes no a/c, but it is beautiful.
- edgar (10/5): - Me gusto mucho su tranquilidad y el ambiente. Personal muy amable
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Our sheets were dirty. Our slider door lock was broken. No extra towels for the beach.
- Tyler (10/5): - We had a great time at Swell Surf. The staff were attentive, friendly and easy to get along with and the food was top notch. It was so good, we almost didn’t want to eat anywhere else because we didn’t want to be disappointed. On Monday night, the chef (Tarra/Tara?) put on a buffet style feast for all guests and we really enjoyed it. The pricing for food, drinks, surf board rentals / lessons etc were all extremely fair for a quality oasis just steps away from a beautiful beach. Now when we had booked our stay, there was only one room left for our duration so we didn’t have an option of what room we got, and it turns out we had a loft style room where the bathroom was on the ground floor and the bedroom was up a narrow/steep wooden ladder one floor up. There was no A/C in the room so it was extremely hot up there, it was open to the elements (had to sleep with a net around the bed and battle some bugs and geckos etc..) and carrying the luggage and bathroom gear was challenging and fairly inconvenient. We were lucky we are young and able bodied or else we wouldn’t have been able to do it and it definitely added a layer of inconvenience to the trip. That being said there are some great rooms offered on the property and the ones by the pool looked great and had A/C available, and likely others we didn’t quite see as most of our time was spent eating by the pool. I would highly recommend staying here but make sure you know what room you are getting. Thanks for having us!
- Alberto (10/5): - Fantastic design and pool.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Lovely Oasis - We came during the hottest time of the year and Swell became our oasis! The swim up pool side room was spacious, clean, and the a/c was cold!!!!! I love the idea of the pretty open air bathrooms and rain showers (no hot water necessary) but it still is a hot sweaty sauna this time of year and I prefer my morning ‘business meeting’ a little cooler. Food is great, fresh, delicious coffee every morning. I love that you can help yourself all day to drinks from the cooler. Daily room cleaning. We barely left the comfort of the beautiful hotel. Too hot to go to the beach until sunset. No need to go anywhere else. Be aware you must pay in cash here. For your stay and everything or they will charge 7% for using a card.
- Yanick (10/5): - amazing design, look like a Instagram hotel ;-). Staff is amazing, food very good, room design wow.
- Carmen (10/5): - Very chill place. Adults only. Super relaxed and friendly staff. We had a bungalow that was nicely decorated and spacious. Food was really good too.
- Teddy (10/5): - Muy bonito hotel, muy privado, la comida muy buena y buen servicio
- Jorge (10/5): Un hotel de primera en El Paredón - Experiencia extremadamente cordial y acogedora. Desde nuestra llegada en donde Samuel nos dice bienvenidos nuevamente a su casa, la habitación, piscina é intalaciones impecables, el resto del staff increíblemente amables. La comida deliciosa. En general les daríamos 100 de calificación. Ningún detalle quedó al azar.
- Von Joseph (8/5): - Nice boutique hotel. Nice pool. My room had the bedroom upstairs and the bathroom downstairs. The stairs was a little steep in design. I would've opted for a room that has the bathroom on the same level (it's a hassle to use it at night). There are cats and one slept on my extra bed, which I thought was cute, but just fyi for those with cat allergies. The room is not airconditioned but there were adequate fans. The area (Paredon) has a lot of bugs, definitely bring some bug spray. Friendly staff. Wifi was patchy, I had the room farthest from the lounge area but the wifi worked better at the lounge area. Easy walk to the beach.
- Marco (10/5): - Awesome hotel & staff!
- Trevor (10/5): - Amazing spot with friendly and helpful staff. They organized shuttles to Antigua for us and we were able to rent surf boards on site which was very convenient. Every meal we had was amazing.
- Mario (10/5): - Exelent place to Relax
- Jose (10/5): - Very clean, nice staff and cool vibe.
- Jose (10/5): - Cool place, friendly staff, close to the beach
