The Garten hotel was very comfortable with amazing food, service and views. We love the boutique hotel vibe with 5 star service. The proximity to the beach was amazing. We would definately stay here again and would recommend to anyone going to El Salvador.

The hotel is very nice. Hospitality was generally great. The service for the restaurant was hit or miss, depending on the employees working that day. But any service involving our room was excellent. Keep in mind that there is a lot of construction surrounding the hotel as the area is starting to grow. That's not the hotel's fault and it's temporary, but it did get loud at times. Overall, one of the better spots to stay in El Zonte.

Just What I Needed

The Garten Hotel was just what I needed. My room was nice and spacious, clean. This hotel is right on a beautiful black sand beach(not rocky either). I loved the al fresco dining. The staff was amazing. I wanted to workout in their gym, and one of the receptionists walked me over to the gym, since it was located on the sister property(the villas) to show me exactly where it was. Food and drinks were good . It was quiet and relaxing, which I loved. I will definitely stay here again.

This was 1 of 4 properties that we stayed at during our trip to El Salvador. It was absolutely perfect in all ways. The room is very spacious and beautifully furnished. The air conditioning kept our room very cool. The bed is slightly firmer than I prefer but still slept well. There is a stocked mini bar and Netflix available on the tv. The poolside bar was where we spent many funds. Alexander the bartender served us with a smile and even allowed me to play Sofi Tukker while we were there on the speakers surrounding the pool. The pool is pristine and the perfect temperature and there are big 4 poster lounging beds available for when not in the water. There is beach access stairs and a little shower/foot wash station where you can rinse off the black sand. The very best room is room 5 and was unavailable but is where I’d like to stay next time. If I come back year, I’m going to request that room for sure. I can not say enough good things about this property and felt completely safe and welcome here. Other staff worth mentioning were Julio and Carlos. They always greeted with a smile and were very accommodating. Property is only about 13 minutes by Uber for only like $6 from El Tunco beach if you want some local flavor.
