Très bel emplacement à 2 min à pied de l'océan! Très bien entretenu, petit village tranquille. Je recommande vivement et j'y retournerais à coup sûr!

The place is even better than it is described in the information. Me and my family had a lovely time staying at La Palapa. This house was very clean and cosy, and is located in a beautiful area of the Pacific coast, not far from the beach. It is only a really short walk from the ocean or from the little town of Paredon, but has a shop right next door which was super convenient for the things we needed. We loved just being able to walk 30 seconds to a local shop for ice creams and cold drinks. It is literally seconds from everywhere, but also feels really secluded which was awesome for us. I love the green fence that they are growing around the periphery, and all the plants that they have been planting in their garden. I can see how that will really be even more of an asset to the property when the rain comes a little more regularly. Saul and Sarah were lovely and kind with us. Although we didn't meet them face to face as they live in the city, they were incredibly helpful with answering all of our questions by email beforehand, and phone even during the day when they were working. We don't speak any Spanish so their caretaker Fani made sure he called Saul when we arrived to translate any questions we had. We actually booked at really short notice as we were already staying at a bungalow there, and wanted to extend our stay but our original place was full. We had noticed La Palapa as we were eating at the pizza place next door, and had randomly been talking to the guests who were staying there at the time who were also eating in the pizza place. They had recommended it to us. I'm pretty sure this house is one of the best choices if you want to stay in El Paradon but want the freedom of being able to cook for yourself and have a bit more space. Everything was great.... we really didn't expect such good attention and such an amazing place for this price. You can't even find a bungalow with a shared bathroom in this area of the pacific for the price, so were more than happy to stumble on La Palapa. If you are looking for a little beach house without all the extra costs and expenses that some of the big houses in Monterrico come with, or if you are trying to decide between one of the local bungalows and an actual house, then this place is definitely for you. We highly recommended this place!

Awesome view

We were really lucky to stay in the nice house of Sarah. It is just a 2 min walk to the beach en some restaurants. You can here the sea when you are lying in the bed. Sarah is really easy to communicate with. Enjoy your stay!

I just loved it here, there's nothing more to add

La casa es nueva y todavía le falta atención al jardín, la seguridad perimetral es simplemente una cerca de alambre y la casa esta en medio de un terreno grande baldío, por lo demás cumplen con lo ofrecido en el anuncio.

The Palapa is such an authentic taste of the beautiful coastline town of Paredon. You have surfing, river tours, local little restaurants, and a very secluded feel from tourists and city life. The palapa is open and breezy with an extraordinary experience. I love the outdoor bathroom and view from the upstairs room. Sarah was super attentive, communicative, and helpful. She made our stay really special.

We really enjoyed Sarah's house, the setting is beautiful and we loved how open and breeze it is. The caretaker is very attentive and helped us with everything we needed. It was nice to have a community of locals and foreigners that call El Paredón home to interact. There are great food options - we ate at Soulfood kitchen and really enjoyed it. The communication with Sarah was great! Thanks and hope to come Thank you Sarah! We really enjoyed your house, the setting is beautiful and we loved how open and breeze it is. Fany was very attentive and helped us with everything we needed. It was nice to have a community of locals and foreigners that call El Paredón home to interact. It is great food options - we ate at Soulfood kitchen and really enjoyed it. Thanks for the flexibility checking in and out and the promp response to all my questions! You are a great host! Thanks and hope to come back.

Una excelente cabaña adecuada para relajarte

My stay couldn't have been any better. Check in was super easy. The grounds keeper got me all set up and showed me everything to make my stay as comfortable as possible. It was a magical place stay and couldn't have gotten a better nights sleep up top listening to the ocean. The location was quite and I was able to move around the village with ease. I recommend this to anyone who is looking for a little bit of paradise for a few days.

Perfect for what we needed. Close to the restaurants and bars.

Was good. Confortable and well ubicated.

Very nice to stay super close to the beach and everything around.

Another great weekend at this lovely place! Never get tired of it. Love Kokomo <3

Kokomo was amazing! The place is neat! It is very spacious, comfy and beautiful. The room was more than I expected. I was able to relax the whole stay, it is right next to the beach, and it had all the commodities I needed. Another great thing about the place was that I was able to cook but I also wanted to relax and eat outside; and basically I was able to do both since the house is really close to restaurants and hotels where we could eat out. I really recommend this place, especially if you want to surf, enjoy the beach or just chill/relax. I will be definitely going back soon!!!

La casa súper cómoda y bien equipada, cerca de la playa y fresca. Adicional a las comodidades, el guardián del lugar es muy amable. Regresaré!! Totalmente recomendado.

Great place. All was perfect. House, location, people, food. Going back again.

I love this place! Never get tired of staying here :-)

Thomas is an amazing host. He had Choli meet us at the property, Choli takes care of this house and the two adjacent houses. I couldnt imagine a better trip. The house is incredible, the beach is 50 feet away, and Yoli, the local chef, cooks wonderful meals. If youre choosing between a local surf hotel and this house, take the house, its perfect.

Amazing place. The housekeeper is a jewel

Thomas's place is perfectly located. Clean and secluded, which worked perfectly for us and our two dogs. I fully recommend it if you are thinking on a beach destination in Guatemala. Yoli is an amazing cook!

Muy buen lugar. Hermoso entorno, casa llena de detalles propios del amor

La casa está increible, con una excelente ubicación y a unos pasos de la playa, lucy es una excelente host y muy abierta a comunicación y a proveer de ayuda en caso de algun inconveniente, recomendable al 100%

La casa es ideal para descansar. Se encuentra en un lugar muy tranquilo de Sipacate con vista directa a la playa. La casa es fresca con bellas palmeras y brisa fresca del mar, ademas de contar con amplios espacios y muchos detalles que la hacen super agradable. Recomendada al 100%. Definitivamente regresaremos. Gracias Lucy.

Una agradable y cómoda casa en la playa, con agradables personas muy atentas al servicio de uno las 24 horas

Una linda casa, tiene lo necesario para pasar un fin de semana más que agradable. Recomendadísima.

La casa es muy agradable, las personas que la cuidan muy atentas con mucha disposición de ayudar. Y Lucy fue una buena anfitriona, siempre al pendiente.

Linda, a la orilla del mar.

Muy cerca del mar y muy buena atención

La casa está ubicada en el mejor lugar del complejo, justo enfrente del mar, de una playa con rompeolas, ideal para niños, al lado de la casa club que tiene piscinas y columpios para niños. El restaurante de la casa club muy bueno, todo muy práctico para disfrutar sin incomodidades.

Es una bonita casa de playa, para los que quieren salir de lo tradicional! Está situada sobre una playa para hacer surf y es una zona muy segura! Tiene todo lo que uno necesita para pasar unos días muy tranquilos y relajados!

La casa esta muy bien ubicada, a solo unos metros de la playa. Sala, comedor y cocina son espaciosos y la piscina es ideal para familias. El deck en el tercer permite disfrutar de la vista y el clima, es un area muy util, la disfrutamos muchisimo. Definitivamente regresaremos!

Excelente lugar, con muy buena ubicación.

The location is great , next to the club and infront of the beach.

When we arrived at Casa del Mar and discovered fresh coconuts awaiting us, we knew we had found a hidden corner of paradise. Our stay at Juan Gaviota was nothing short of exceptional and Carolina did everything to ensure we had a wonderful experience. We were traveling with a large group and everyone had an amazing stay - the house was spacious and comfortable, the staff was extremely hospitable, and the views were unforgettable. We hope to be able to return one day soon (or better yet, buy a house of our own next door :D )!

poco de inconveniente con la fuerza del agua pero me gusto mucho la casa y ubicacion

My plans changed so we didn't get to enjoy staying. However, Saskia was extremely helpful all the way and communicated promptly to all my questions. I will definitively will try to stay on my next trip.

La casa presenta el inconveniente de la disponibilidad del agua solamente a ciertas horas. El aire acondicionado funciona adecuadamente al igual que los ventiladores. Por estar tan cerca de la playa lo cual es excelente presenta el inconveniente del polvo en las mañanas principalmente. Hay tiendas cerca.

Es una casa antigua y sencilla muy cerca de la playa con hamacas y cocos excelente para surf y aventura La recomiendo mucho su lo tuyo es la vida sencilla, la playa y la tranquilidad !

Estuvimos 5 días en la casa de Saskia y la pasamos genial! La casa muy bonita con acabados de madera y de piedra, el jardin grande fue la felicidad de nuestra perrita que anduvo corriendo para arriba y para abajo. Solo cruzamos la calle para estar en la playa y disfrutar. Super cerca de la casa compramos mariscos todos los días y la pasamos cocinando platillos en la cocina de la casa que está muy bien! Recomendada!!!

For a few weeks prior to my trip, I was emailing with Saskia and she was super helpful in answering my questions like the directions to get to her place, changing money and buying food for groceries. She really went out of her way to be helpful. The place itself is another thing. I am a 50 year old man used to traveling alone. I can be comfortable in a lot of places. When I first saw Saskia's place, I was surprised at how dusty it was and how the appliances looked very run down. I had to adjust my expectations and make the best of it which I did. There is air conditioning in at least 2 of the three bedrooms. The bedrooms are set up with just beds only and seem designed for a large family. One room had two sets of bunk beds. There is nothing on the walls, no other furniture and the walls are badly stained. The light fixtures and ceiling fans all work but are strictly functional. There is a beautiful outdoor deck where you can work on your computer and view the ocean. There are several hammocks set up too. Water pressure is an issue so you have to be flexible with things requiring water.
