Pros:

בעלים נחמדים , חדר מרווח ונקי , מטבח ענק, המיקום לא הכי מרכזי , אבל קרוב לכביש כך שאפשר לתפוס אוטובוס , ויש קיצור דרך שמוביל ישר לחוף

Perfect stay in El Tunco, 15 mins walk from the main st
Pros:

It had everything you need, 15 minutes walk from the Main Street, air conditioning, cold water filter, comfortable bed and pillows, kitchen and felt very safe. Lovely staff as well!

Cons:

A little outside the main area, walking at night time along the main road was a bit sketchy with the trucks going past very quick!

Exceptional
Pros:

We booked this place at the last minute after our other plans fell through, and we are really glad we did! This is a great option for budget conscious travellers in the El Tunco area. Our room was very clean and large, the air conditioning was great and the bathroom was modern.

The location is slightly out of Surf City, its a 15-minute walk into the town. But you wouldn't get anywhere to stay at this price in the town, and ubers are readily available.

Wonderful
Pros:

A wonderful experience. I booked for 2 nights and stayed many more. Perfect for what I was looking for. Quiet, on a local family street, friendly neighbours, and a walk through the mangrove to the beach. A big thank you to the Lady of the House, whose care and attention were much appreciated. I hope to return again. Strongly recommend.

Delightful week at Ibania Hostel!
Pros:

Ibania Hostel is a wonderful authentic El Salvadore experience. It is more of a homestay and feels warm and welcoming. The kitchen is perfect for buying your own groceries or if you prefer El Tunco with its quaint shops and restaurants are only ten minutes away. I stayed a week and would come back for more.

Superb
Pros:

Very nice clean room, good size, great quality A/C. A very short walk (if you're willing to take the shortcut over some stones in a small body of stagnant water) to get to the beach.

Very good
Pros:

Really comfortable bed, clean facilities, free filtered water and a friendly host.
Location was also really peaceful.

Cons:

Only downside was that it was a bit of a walk from the main town, but as there’s ubers and taxis around it wasn’t too much of an issue.

Superb
Pros:

Fantastic property with AC! 10 minute walk to the main El Tunco strip. Felt safe walking to and from the area. Family shared kitchen was well equipped and they had filtered water. Bathrooms were very clean! They're also doing some renovations, and we could see an outdoor shower being built! Would absolutely recommend!

as a comeback stay there will certainly be more to follow.
Pros:

this stay was a comeback for us and our expectations, simply , were fully reiterated. An oasis of calmness in vibrant El Tunco aerea where you can enjoy a treeline of well established mango tree amongst others.
