There was nothing to like whatsoever. If I had not made the reservation on Booking I would have insisted that we leave. Old, dirty and completely deplorable conditions. Our room was not clean , bare light bulb in the ceiling. We were given a top sheet; no cotton quilt or any other bedding at all. We were told no one had ever asked for a blanket or comforter. Very creepy place; I barely slept all night. Random people laying or sleeping in hammocks right outside our door. The lock on the door was similar to a school locker padlock. Shabby wooden door.
Offering 3 different pools, one for children, one large pool, plus another small one, Hotel Atelie del Mar is located in Monterrico, 50 metres from the beach. Free WiFi access is available throughout....

Great hotel with lush very beautiful garden. Clean fresh swimming pool and you see how they are taking care of the garden and pool. Family hotel with amazing hosts, they can help you with anything, starting with an excursion to the river to meet the sunrise and finishing with resolving stomach problems.
Highly recommend it, we truly enjoyed our stay there.

Was a treat to spend the few days here.
Was a treat to spend the few days here. The hotel fit my needs wonderfully. Great, authentic town where one can see how the people really live. I didn't spend much time googling about the area. There was probably much more to do than I did but don't miss out on a tour of the mangroves. Great nighttime (before dawn) sky and super birdwatching as well. Just give the seller time to bring his price down. Mine was first quoted at 200Q and settled at 75Q. While there the weather was hot and very humid.

We drove from Guatemala City and found the drive not difficult and very interesting. Lots of great little villages and people watching along the road as well as farms, and other interesting sites. For travelers, wanting to try this drive -feel comfortable- there are lots of stops along the way at gas stations for drinks and restrooms, so no worries there. The roads were in good condition but keep your eye out for speed bumps in unusual places. I have rarely been in a place with as good of roadside facilities as Guatemala. We were traveling in late June and it was quite hot so grateful to have air conditioning in our hotel room as a plus.

Relaxed. Pleasant. Low key and just what we wanted.
Relaxed. Pleasant. Low key and just what we wanted. The waves can be pretty strong and probably dangerous to swill in. The locals all seemed to enjoy sitting in the shallows and letting the surf wash over them.

Interesting place to get a vibe of where poeple from Guatemala go on vacation on the pacific coast . Not many international tourists . Not much to do there but with a good hôtel with a swimming pool, it is a nice place to relax and enjoy hot weather. During the rainy season, mosquitos are part of the combo. We rented a car to get there. We felt pretty safe.

Monterrico was a great little beach town.
Monterrico was a great little beach town. Plenty of restaurants if you want to get out of the hotels and amazing beaches. Much less crowds than port San Jose. There’s also the amazing mangrove nature preserve if you want a relaxing boat ride.

Monterrico is incredibly beautiful.
Monterrico is incredibly beautiful. We ate several places and all were very good -- good food for a fair price. The beach is absolutely gorgeous! We booked a tour of the mangroves in the Reserva Natural with EDGAR CONTRERAS as our Guide! This was the highlight of the trip! We had a great time with this intelligent, hard-working, reliable and fun guide who showed us a beautiful part of Guatemala. Highly recommend getting in touch with Edgar when you are in Monterrico. Next visit I am going fishing with Edgar! I can't wait! My friend says she want to go, too.
Very nice location, right at the beach. The Hotel has a restaurant with delicious food and on the weekends you can enjoy some live music at the bar. The staff is just amazing, super friendly and ready to help anytime! This is a perfect accomodation to chill some days at the beach. Just be careful when swimming, the swell is pretty strong in Monterrico.
The room is a little bungalow, beautifully built. Each bungalow has its own little terrasse. The hotel is a bit further from the other hotels and it makes it very quiet. The hotel has a direct access to the beach. We could hear the ocean all night. Room is big. Staff is nice and smiley. There are two pools, both super clean.
This is a family-run hotel and they are all lovely....really friendly and helpful. After three days, I felt like one of the family! The hotel is only a five minute walk from the centre and the swimming pool is the best in town. The food was tasty and the portions are generous. It was a lovely, relaxing stay.
The AC was great, and the WiFi was beyond perfect. It worked while in the pool area and in the beach. The food and drinks were great. The staff was wonderful to us. Overall, we are happy with our stay at Cafe del Sol. Gracias Cafe del Sol. The hotel has parking in the rear which is a plus.
A nice hotel with a lovely garden and a great swimming pool. The rooms are confortable and the restaurant serves delicious food. The staff is very helpful, especially for booking visits and activities. The location is close to everything on foot. I would definitely come back
The best hotel option in El Hawaii. Great pools and friendly staff. Pet friendly, which is a huge plus.
The beach is manageable, unlike the dangerous Monterrico Beach a few kilometers up the road. Lots of activities (kayaking, surfing, horseback rides, atv rides, etc).
The beach location. The restaurant and the pool. Oliver, the owner, is helpful and manages the location well. If you like action on the weekend, El Delfin has a restaurant, a bar, a swimming pool, ping pong, and, of course, the black sand beach.
Excellent location, 2 minute walk from the beach and near restaurants. Staff are friendly and helpful. Parking is good and safe in the back of the building. Pool is nice, and room was comfortable enough for a night.
The pool and the bar in the pool is great. You can relax and also meet others. Time passes by so fast. Beautiful grass lawn leading up to the beach is very well maintained providing a relaxing view.
Was very private ...felt like we had our own beach. Staff very friendly, you need to speak Spanish to communicate. Place is nice and very clean and felt that you are on an exotic island.
I'm sorry I only stayed one night, it was the perfect place by the Pacific ocean. Next to the hotel is a center that takes care of turtles and I was able to release some into the ocean.
