A very nice and fully equipped house. The coffee tour they gave us was very nice.
Great place to stay in a private home on the outskirts of Ataco with easy walking to the shops and restaurants. Well decorated and nice historical touches.
A beautiful, comfortable, spacious, and well-equipped house! We felt right at home! They were all very friendly and helpful. My family really enjoyed our stay at this place, and even our puppy had an amazing time! Everything was perfect! 1000% recommended.
The house was super neat and clean. The bathrooms were clean and stocked with hand towels, toilet paper, and plenty of hand soap. The kitchen and appliances are clean. The garden is well maintained. I liked that there were lamps in case the power went out, and ice and cookies as a welcome gesture. The barbecue was super clean and ready to use. Definitely a lovely place that I would visit again.
My family and I absolutely loved staying here! We spent only 1 night but wished we stayed longer. The host was very kind and helpful and gave us a run down on the home when we arrived. The home was very beautiful and private. The town nearby, Ataco, has so many shops, coffee, and good food. In walkable distance. Would stay here again.
Beautiful house, we were able to experience the country side in the most authentic way possible. Great hosts! We totally recommend this place. We had an amazing time and hope to come back soon!
Our stay was more than excellent, the place is beautiful, quite spacious, well-kept green areas, the same as what they show in the photographs, well equipped and the cleanliness of the place is excellent, a place to disconnect, relax and enjoy with family and pets, we brought our 3 dogs, it is only 5 blocks from the park, you feel incredible privacy throughout the vegetation that surrounds the estate, Yolanda and Claudia were very friendly and were always attentive, we would definitely come back.
We were greeted by Claudia upon arrival; she gave us a tour of the house and made sure that we had everything we needed during the entire stay. The house has everything you need: dishes, tablecloths, glasses, TV, internet, etc. The place is just a few blocks from the village and is quiet and peaceful at night. Everything was extremely clean and tidy, just like in the photos! I have no doubt that we will return in the future. We loved it.
I can’t wait to return to this magnificent house and its lovely surrounding garden and mini forest. So peaceful and restful to get in touch with nature. Claudia, one of the owners was a joy to speak to about the property and the town. We had a terrific stay!
Beautiful House!! When you get to that house, you never want to leave Thank you for letting us be in your house. We had a great time.
My family and I had a good time, the host and the staff were very friendly. We liked the forest and the check-in and check-out times, they are the best I have found. We enjoyed it very much.
Beautiful place! With lots of flowers and vegetation, just like in the photos! With everything you need for a pleasant stay. Yolanda was extremely friendly and kept in constant contact. Very long hours of stay.
Beautiful house with a huge garden! It's a beautiful place to spend family time
Villa Mercedes, the hosts, and caretakers are all wonderful! Our family enjoyed the well-equipped and cozy house, with enough bedrooms & shared bathrooms for everyone, a well-stocked kitchen, beautiful gardens & outdoor seating. The kids enjoyed playing badminton & a number of available board games. The hosts & caretakers were very responsive & attentive, and the property had everything we needed. This is our second stay here, and we will definitely return :)
Super recommended, the attention was excellent, the facilities spacious and comfortable, perfect for rest and relaxation.
excellent place, spacious tidy super recommended for family trips
Our stay in Yolanda's accommodation was very good, from the speed of attention, the cleanliness of the house, to the kindness and agility of the people who attended us already while in the house. It has a location close to downtown Ataco but at the same time offers the feeling of being among nature. It's a nice house, spacious and tidy. I definitely recommend staying in it and I would definitely do it again.
We absolutely loved our stay. Everything from the warm, welcoming host, to the beautiful surrounding and a comfortable home. Our needs were met and we all left talking about how much we want to come back!
Very excellent place, with perfect weather and all its comforts and equally the hostess was very nice and she was aware of everything, I really recommend the place!!!
An excellent place with a lot of nature and perfect weather. We have charms
Highly recommend this villa! Staff was super friendly, very helpful and all together very accommodating and pleasant. Claudia was especially helpful and went above and beyond when a couple of personal items we forgotten, to get the back to us.
The house was beautiful and exactly as shown in the photos, maybe even better. It was quiet, clean and very peaceful. We really enjoyed our stay. It's within walking distance of the park, restaurants, local shops and activities. Geronimo was absolutely wonderful during our stay, always attentive, he opened and closed the gate and even took us for a walk around the estate. The hostess was extremely friendly and welcomed us when we arrived. She gave us a tour of every part of the house, something we've never experienced before at an Airbnb check-in. We were very impressed. The only thing we noticed was that on some occasions we saw cockroaches in the bathrooms. However, we understand that a house on a farm in El Salvador may have some cockroaches; it's somewhat inevitable here. This would not prevent us from returning to the house, and we highly recommend it.
The house is very cozy, spacious and comfortable. Yolanda and Monica are very attentive
Totally in love with the place, not only did my family enjoy it to the fullest but also my dogs. The garden is quite spacious, very well maintained. Totally recommended!
Yolanda's house is truely the perfect cabin. We found it hard to believe how it could feel so quiet and peaceful despite being on the outer part of Ataco. The host's sister personally welcomed us to the property and showed us around. She's a warm, lovely person and made us feel right at home. We loved the vibe of the house. It was spacious yet cozy, and their garden really resembles the feel of being in the middle of the forest. We hope to come again for a longer stay.
Yolanda's house is a period stay, beautifully decorated and very comfortable. It has a magical garden that allows you to relax and just sit around spending time. Thank you very much to Yolanda, Claudia, Don Jerónimo and Don Mauro.
A cozy place, very nice in the middle of nature to enjoy as a family
This place was amazing. You felt as being in your own home. Lots of restaurants with delicious foods. Walking distance to the center of town. The help at the place are very nice. Yolanda’s cousins Claudia was very sweet and helpful with the check in. Yolanda kept in touch with me during my stay. Hopping to return for another stay.
Beautiful place, very recommended, a beautiful environment full of trees and flowers, comfortable and perfect for the family, many activities to do
Very spacious, comfortable, with very well preserved antique decor... the basketball board was very much enjoyed by the boys, pleasant weather and you feel in total contact with nature... to repeat!!! Very understanding Yolanda was her initiative to ask for a change of date for our reservation because the weather was not right.
Very satisfied with Quinta Villa Mercedes, the place is very nice to spend a weekend with family or friends. All the clean and tidy areas, Claudia the person who welcomed us very friendly, explaining everything and very accessible in case we wanted to go out at night. Also, the gentleman who opens the door very polite and friendly.
The location is wonderful -- a block or two outside town, surrounded by green space. You're far enough from town to avoid a lot of the city noise but close enough to easily walk to the city center in 10 minutes or less. The home is spacious, with sizeable bedrooms and comfortable beds. Check in was easy, with onsite personnel there to greet us and explain everything. Be aware of barking dogs, however. This is a fact of life in much of the developing world, but we had one night where a neighbor's dog barked completely through the night. It's just the way it is, but something to be aware of. The second night was perfectly quiet, so you know it's hit or miss. No nearby roosters, which is a plus over many other regional Airbnbs I've stayed in.
We live a very nice weekend. The people who serve the ranch are incredibly kind, they were always attentive to any need!. A super well equipped spectacular house, we didn't need anything. Everything is very tidy and clean. Everything works perfectly. We were walking in the night to the park and its surroundings. The asado in the forest was very nice. We all want to come back soon. Thank you so much for all your kindness !
It is a beautiful place, the house is spacious, comforting, everything shows not only an excellent taste but also a genuine interest in making guests feel relaxed and in a special atmosphere. My family and I highly recommend it (and that includes my pets🙌🏻)

Gracias Mirna! Siempre serás bienvenida.
The house is an a gem with beautiful surroundings. It is spacious, comfortable, well organized and maintained. The lovely gardens offer peace, tranquility and lots of privacy. The house is decorated with beautiful artifacts, art and furniture that add to the character of the house and honours the local culture. It's location is fantastic, walkable to town, but located in a nice quiet area. The house also offered many games, basketball court and reading material that was enjoyed by our family. The wonderful staff, was helpful, kind and very respectful. The home is well equipped with everything you need for a wonderful stay. Yolanda thank you for being a wonderful host, and for being so attentive. We are looking to return in the future. We loved the place and wish we could have stayed longer.
A paradise.... the impeccable house... the best time is the departure time that allows you to enjoy the village with tranquility.... tidy and spacious... surrounded by greenery, private... I would return a thousand times
Everything is perfect, my family really enjoyed the stay, everyone at the property was very nice and helpful
Villa Mercedes is a wonderful accommodation, without thinking twice we will return to stay there again with all my family, it has very cozy and unique spaces.
This is a GORGEOUS home that was truly such a pleasure to stay at. The pictures definitely match, but in real life the beauty of this home is unmatched. Such a homey feel, beautifully decorated and fully stocked with everything you need including French press! The gardens are spectacular, the porch is perfection. Waking up to watch the sunrise from behind the mountains with local coffee and quesadilla was something I will truly never forget. It was so peaceful, beautiful, breathtaking. This is a home you truly won’t want to leave, and won’t have to if you come prepared with food as they have a fully functioning kitchen with gas range, pots, pans, impecable fridge etc. But, if you’re like me and don’t want to cook you are walking distance from the centro and can eat at any one of the various restaurants and pupuserias. As mentioned Geronimo and staff are helpful and super sweet. I can go on and on but ran out of characters. I truly hope I can come back!
Great house for the elderly. Everything is clean. The kitchen is impeccable. The people who take care of your needs are always available. We would visit them again
had great family time. yolanda and the people that work at her house were great.
Walking distance from the center of Ataco. Beautifully parked house, the patio is very nice. The indoor fireplace was ready to run on the rainy day. A quiet home for a group or family.
Beautiful home. very clean throughout. nicely decorated with interesting art. close to town.
The place and the house exceeded our expectations!! The place is well equipped, it has everything you need and more!! The gardens and all spaces around the house are super comfortable! It is a beautiful place and the people who take care of it are kind and excellent they helped us with everything!! It's just worth it !!
This ia a lovely hacienda style home, very comfortable and roomie, had a great time with the family and our two beagles, host is very responsive and nice, I would love to come back
A very nice place, well kept, very clean, very good service. Ideal rest and disconnect from work. Excellent, all the games they have and good vibes.
We loved this place, 5-10 min walk to the main plaza in Ataco, great spaces to hang out at the house, very helpful host. The house has a very homey, country house feel to it with lots of cool antiques. The house has everything you could need (including hot water). We would definitely stay here again.
a very nice house, and the hosts of 10... highly recommended place
The home is beautiful and just as described. Our family stayed one night and it was spacious and easily accessible. The home has a lot of charm and is located right at the edge of town. Keep in mind that you’re on a “finca” so you should be prepared for the natural elements that come with that, like ants, bugs, spiders. I would recommend not leaving any snacks lying around, especially on beds near windows. We left some a bag with some food on one of the beds near a window and came back to ants everywhere. Again, it’s part of the environment so nothing can be done about it, so just know that before booking if your group won’t do well with that. Overall, we loved the home and Yolanda was so great to communicate with. Thanks to her and her on-site team for making our stay great.
Very pleasant stay, super peaceful, there’s a forest in the backyard that’s just so beautiful and relaxing. It’s comfortable and spacious. Would recommend!
Charming tasteful, wonderfully curated house in Ataco. Deceptively close to the heart of the town in the park and the famous local pizza restaurant, Piccolo Giardino. No air conditioning or fans, but hardly missed due to the great airflow and cool climate provided by the surrounding garden entries. This house has a real authentic older charm. A lot of older, original details which were perfect for us. If your looking for something brand spanking new this might not be for you but it’s truly a wonderful and special home. The kitchen is very well stocked with a new fridge, new oven, toaster oven, French press and drip coffee maker and lots of utensils. Head over to bourbon coffee to pick up a bag and enjoy your morning coffee on the wrap around porch listening to the birds singing at this home. The porch has original vintage and antique furniture. Our stay was shared with another family and we never felt like we were on top of each other with so much space to spread out.
This jewel of Villa is from another planet. The place is paradise on earth. The care of all the staff and especially Claudia and Yolanda is unique. Every penny from this villa's reservation is well spent. My family and I were always welcomed and treated with a lot of respect. This is and will still be my favorite place to vacation in El Salvador.
Yolanda welcomed us at home, we were able to spend a good family time in the common spaces. They have the house very preserved as the hacienda helmet that was one day, it has a spacious and beautiful garden, a basketball court and a nice fire pit to share a mountain night as a family. The kitchen is very well equipped. Of course I would go back to this Airbnb. Yolanda and Claudia's quality of care is unbeatable, they were always attentive to questions and always responded quickly.
An excellent place, very spacious and clean house, very complete kitchen and cozy rooms, we will definitely return. We had a great time with my family. Thank you!!!
The House is beautiful and very cozy, a few meters from the center of Ataco. Highly recommended.
House and the property are beautiful. Claudia was such a great host and explained everything thoroughly. The grounds are really nice, however they were not as big as I expected and you cannot take a hike or stroll into it. It is a nice are to sit and admire though. The details in the house were so nice and admirable and Claudio and Geronimo were nice enough to leave the fireplace ready for us and essentials in the kitchen that were not expected. I would recommend this place to anyone and want to come back the next time I’m in Ataco.
A beautiful house with a cozy, elegant atmosphere. With gardens where we all had a great time. The fireplace detail made our night even more beautiful. God willing, we will return with family and pets. P.S. Thank you Don Benancio for your kindness
Very good experience, the place was as described, clean and tidy. Good attention from the hosts.
The room is beautiful, a place to rest, the kitchen is super complete, extras like Smart TV, games, bedrooms and comfortable beds. The very warm welcome. Beautiful gardens. The spectacular climate in the middle of centuries-old pines, a place to spend time as a family and it adapts for grandparents too, we took my pet and I enjoyed it a lot, we will definitely be back! Thank you
This house is a little gem in Ataco with beautiful fragrant gardens and the warmest of hosts. I can’t recommend enough. The host graciously gave me and my family a tour of their coffee plantation, an added bonus. The home is centric to the small town of Ataco, and perfect for discovering “La Routa de las Flores.”
Very good location of the property. The house is well equipped with everything you need to have a good stay. The house has a fireplace and is always available to use with everything you need to light it. The kitchen is fully equipped, as are the bedrooms. The property has a garden, which looks more like a small forest and it's very nice to walk around there. Good communication with the staff who are waiting at the entrance gate.
very nice and clean place, all the very friendly people and the place is from in dream!! I will definitely have to go again
Amazing! The pictures are accurate but being there is to another level. It’s a dream. Location is convenient, as it’s close to town.
Beautiful property, a small paradise in Ataco. Will definitely disconnect you from the hustle and bustle in a heart beat. Hope to return soon.
It was a great experience with my family in this quiet place. I'll be back soon.
Personalized attention Cute house, cozy and with spaces to host a whole family Spectacular gardens One finds peace when visiting the place
Very nice place, great spaces and clean, the photos are short to the beautiful place, the host was super friendly, he gave us a tour where all the things were and around the property, it has everything you need to cook, super recommended

An excellent place, with a warm climate and the service of those who take care of 10/10
We spent a few relaxed days with a super nice family. The place is beautiful and cozy, especially the garden and the forest, we liked it. The hosts were accessible and took care of us in every way. Super recommended. Thank you for everything.
Beautiful cozy house and garden with a great location. We truly enjoyed our evening around the fireplace. We had a tour around the coffee plantation and an amazing run. Yolanda, Claudia, Geronimo and Santiago made our stay pleasant and easy. We wish we had more time to spend there.
Villa Mercedes is definitely a place to relax and spend quality time with the family. The house is beautiful, with antique details, nice decoration and very clean. Yolanda was in contact from the beginning, and Don Geronimo was attentive during our stay. Thank you Yolanda, Claudia and Don Geronimo! We will definitely be back soon!
A super cozy house, super recommended for a good rest with the family !
Cozy! We had a spectacular weekend! Attention has been paid to every last detail. Claudia, a spectacular person.
Excellent host. Very easy access to the cabin, very well equipped, nice decoration and excellent cleanliness. The gentleman who greets you and opens the gate to you very friendly and the communication was excellent and the communication was excellent. The cabin has a fireplace that can be used and was a nice experience with the kids. The property has a beautiful vegetation space and butterflies, hummingbirds and other types of birds are visible. Recommended, we will certainly come back again.
In a word: Excellent. Kindness and carefully preparing the place so that absolutely nothing is missing. Super recommended.
An extraordinary place. Clean, tidy, spacious, warm attention, and the excellent location allows you to enjoy nature, the pleasant climate and the picturesque streets of Ataco.
