Tortuga Oceanview - Houses for Rent in El Sunzal, La Libertad, El Salvador

Loved staying here and being able to be one with nature! Everything you see in the pictures matched the description. My family and I had a great stay!

We absolutely LOVED our stay at Sabrina's wonderful AirBnb! The views were breathtakingly beautiful and looked just like the photos. Sabrina was also very accommodating and responsive whenever we had questions. She even recommended a chef to us, who ended up being great! Everything was accessible, and there was a lot to do in the area. Even just spending the whole day at the AirBnb was something to look forward to. Would highly recommend this AirBnb to those looking for a relaxing stay!

We had such a wonderful experience at Casa Tortuga to celebrate a birthday. The views are absolutely amazing of Sunzal surf break right off the balcony. All the rooms were very nice, and the property was very private, and we all loved the jungle vibes!! Sabrina was incredibly accommodating in every step of the way and even let us check in a little early to help drop some gear and get a surf in! El Tunco is about a 5 minute drive which has great beach town vibes and food. I would give this a 10 stars if I could!

Beautiful house and amazing ocean views. Very peaceful and private. Always looked forward to waking up surrounded by nature. Had a couple concerns with missing window curtains but the host communicated quickly and effectively and promptly addressed our concerns. Highly recommend this Airbnb. We truly enjoyed our stay here.

We had a great time staying here! Beautiful views, awesome pool, plentiful space for a large group, a responsive hosts!

Casa torgtuga is a great property located very close to many different surf breaks. For a group trip, it’s the perfect type of bungalow style housing with an open air community area.

Stayed here for a wedding! Made us love El Salvador 🇸🇻 ! Really close ride to El Tunco

Beautiful view, I extremely recommend this place it is definitely worth the stay.

My family had an amazing post Christmas holiday at Sabrina’s place. The house was perfect for our multi generational group. We had plenty of room to spread out and also room to be together. You can actually see the sunrise and sunset from the pool area as well as the surfers in the sea below. The gated community was lovely, walkable and felt so safe. There is a large supermarket 10 minutes away by car as well as several restaurants. Miss it already and can’t wait to go back!

We had an absolutely amazing stay at Tortuga Oceanview. From the moment we arrived, it exceeded our expectations. The property is even more beautiful in person than the photos show. It was perfect for our group of seven. The layout is incredibly well thought out, offering plenty of privacy when you want quiet time, while also having a fantastic central area where we all came together to eat, relax, and enjoy the pool. It struck the perfect balance between togetherness and personal space. The views are truly spectacular. We enjoyed stunning sunrises and sunsets every day, and they never got old. The furniture, finishes, and overall quality of the home are top-notch. Everything feels well cared for and thoughtfully chosen. Our host was very attentive, and communication was excellent throughout our stay, which made everything even more seamless and enjoyable. This was truly a five star experience and we would not hesitate to stay here again! Thank you!

Overall great place, the view is beautiful, lots of nature around, and very private (even the bedrooms were well spaced out between one another). Private pool, speakers, complementary cleaning, etc were also super nice. Had a couple of encounters with insects, and lizards but that was ok given that we're were surrounded by dense greenery and plants. Sabrina was also very responsive and proactive, great communication.

The property is beautiful. Very peaceful with breathtaking views. We had a great time. Surrounded by lots of nature.

Very beautiful home, felt safe, and Sabrina was a great host! The house is set in a very lush garden which is beautiful but comes with some bugs (which is unavoidable given the location).

Oh my god, where do I even start? When I first saw this home, I fell in love with it, but being there in person was truly magical. The views, the scenery, the vibe, the nature, the birds, even the little insects  everything came together to make it such a beautiful experience. I work a lot, and this stay gave me the chance to fully disconnect, which was exactly what I needed. I absolutely want to go back again and I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for peace, beauty, and a bit of magic, we even got a massage in the property with the sound of the ocean I cant wait to do it again!

View was awesome and the layout worked well for our group who all pretty much needed separate beds. No foozball table-bummer. Was in the photos. Issue with water was quickly resolved. Rooms are very comfortable. Sabrina and team were very helpful and we met the owner who was very nice and helpful. Separate communal area worked great for our surf team. Pool was better than expected. Filtered drinking water was huge and included coffee was excellent. Really a great place!

We had an amazing stay at this fantastic Oceanview Villa! We were 5 adults and 4 kids and had plenty of space for everyone! Love the design of the villa and how it is layered and lushed in jungle with beautiful plants and trees around! The amazing outdoor area with roofed space for breakfast, dinners and evening get-together facing the ocean! Birds are singing and nature is surrounding bringing peace and connections. Everything is cozy and natural! Kids loved the pool! The hosts provided fantastic service ordering and delivering a birthday cake to the villa! The cake was amazing, you barely can find those quality cakes in regular bakery in Miami! Service was excellent! Thanks! We had massages right at the villa, which was relaxing experience after a hot day at the beach! Next time I would probably also invite the private Chef to cook dinner at the Villa! We enjoyed our stay though it was just a weekend, it was filled with great time and memories! Appreciate the hosts!

ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL surroundings and location. The views are like nothing i have ever experienced. The separation of the different living quarters was very unique and felt like we had our own hotel. The host was quickly responsive. Massage services were listed in the residence, we were able to utilize them on short notice. The host also recommended a wonderful chef that we enjoyed. Safe gated community. Close drive to El Tunco. There are two main reasons we have given a 4 star review: 1. A/C- The listing states A/C in every bedroom. We did not expect that to be literal and not have A/C in the main community areas like living room and kitchen. This made it very uncomfortable to cook and spend time together in the living rooms. Early in the morning and Late at night it was bearable. It worked very well in the bedrooms. 2. You are traveling in El Salvador and in the Jungle- So be ready for critters. This was unexpected. There were many insects inside and outside the property.

Thank you for your thoughtful feedback and for sharing what you enjoyed about your stay, from the views and unique layout to the chef and massage services. For future guests, we want to note that our listing specifies in multiple places that air conditioning is available in every bedroom, and that the main living and kitchen areas are open-air without A/C. We also include a clear wildlife and insect disclaimer, as our home is surrounded by nature in a tropical climate. These details are provided before booking so guests can plan accordingly. We truly appreciate your visit and hope you had a wonderful overall experience in El Salvador.

beautiful location and breathtaking views. easily fit our party of 10.

This place is beautiful just like the pictures. The views are amazing and well worth the price. This place is great for families and friends. It's in a safe gated community. We felt safe leaving even though we weren't sure on how to lock the doors. The pool was cleaned daily this made our time in the pool enjoyable. We did have some issues during our stay one of the rooms leaked through causing water inside the room and on the bed. This was address quickly and a cleaning lady came to change the sheets and she turned over the mattress. It was very appreciated on how quickly this issue was solved. Also the drain in the shower in one of the rooms wasn't working/draining causing the water rise while showering. Sabrina and her team quickly solved the issue and were generous in issuing a partial refund for our problems. Our family stayed for 6 nights, I think having cleaning service come to clean at least every 2-3 days would have made our stay even better.

Thank you, Yesica! We are so glad your family enjoyed the views, the pool, and felt well cared for during your stay. We always do our best to respond quickly to any issues, and I appreciate you mentioning that. For future guests reading this, we do offer mid-stay cleanings — it’s noted in the amenities and guest guidebook, and just requires reaching out to your host to coordinate. Thanks again for staying with us!

Total gem and very safe. The view is incredible, and the amenities are luxurious!

Great place! Very beautiful! This house does sits on top a mountain and will need a car to access. Not walkable! Would stay here again and the host is very helpful and responsive!

Sabrina’s house was very nice and peaceful. Sabrina is a host with many properties and she was very overwhelmed the weekend we checked in. She was not available to answer questions the day before our arrival “because she was focusing on the people checking in that day and not the next day”. We had a critter infestation in one room that had a hole in the ceiling which created insulation dropping on our heads at night. She challenged us that it was not possible since the people before us didn’t complain. Turned out there was a critter living in the ceiling and the room had to be shut down and then her tone became great! She was kind and responsive and also gave us an appropriate refund for that room. All in it’s a nice place but dealing with Sabrina was very tricky. I HIGHLY recommend hiring Eddy the driver as he was the real highlight of our trip and a great representation of the kind Salvadorian people. We hired him for the 5 days we were there and was worth every penny.

I’m truly sorry that your stay wasn’t up to the standards I strive for—every guest’s comfort is very important to me. As a Superhost with over 100 five-star reviews and more than a decade of hosting experience, I take every concern seriously and am proud that previous guests have never raised similar issues. I want to clarify that at no point was I questioning the validity of your experience; I was simply noting that had we known about the issue in advance, we would have resolved it prior to your arrival. Nevertheless, I addressed the problem immediately and issued a substantial refund to make things right during a very busy holiday period. I strive to uphold the highest level of professionalism and responsiveness, and I welcome any guests to contact me directly if they have concerns—my goal is always to ensure a positive stay for everyone.

The pictures don't do it justice. The house has beautiful views! The kids really enjoyed the pool . We hung out on the deck most of the time so we got to enjoy the breeze and views while enjoying quality time.

The place was beautiful! The view of the coast was great to look out at. The kitchen was great for cooking and the coffee delicious! Comfortable beds and AC in the bedrooms!

Gorgeous house with views for days! The pictures don’t do it justice.  The tranquility you seek is there and more.  Definitely coming back in the future if we’re in the Tunco area.  Finally shout-out to Sabrina for the great communication.

The property is so beautiful and in such an awesome location. You can see the surf from the family room and the rooms are all very private. The neighborhood is super safe and close to el tunco!

Sabrina was very helpful to get our vacation started. I love the fact that everybody had their own quarters and then there was a main section just to sit relax and have some fun. The pool was perfect and the view was everything you would expect. I love waking up in the morning and watching the professional surfersdoing their thing. Highly recommend this place and definitely would stay here multiple times.

Amazing views, house design, it was a great stay!

Lovely place, surrounded and filled with plants and nature, a homey surfer family vibe. Ants are prompt to cleanup any food you leave out, geckos sing to you at night, you can see sunrise and sunset and there are no trash fires in this area. Kitchen tools well stocked.

Sabrina and Sean were great. They were very accommodating. We all had our own space and privacy, which is hard to find around the area. Location is perfect, views are breathtaking and the place is beautiful. A must stay in El Salvador. Would highly recommend.

Beautiful place just as described. Very helpful host who was alway's responsive and willing to help. Would highly recommend!

This house was amazing. Very well kept, beautiful views,great pool and perfect central location near el tunco. Our Host Sabrina was extremely helpful with recommendations and very accommodating. If there’s one thing I’d say for people thinking of renting this home is be mindful when bringing an infant here because there are lots of steps and areas where smaller children can fall so definitely recommend bringing a playpen. The home was just as described. Very tropical beach house vibe. We loved it. Thank you!

Sabrina and Sean are absolutely amazing hosts. They were very accommodating and chill. Everything was meticulously put together for arrival. Always responsive to any of our needs. A must stay in El Salvador! From the breathtaking views to the beautiful beaches and into surf city all a must. We did not want to leave!

Everything excellent! Service, price and location

this house is beautiful, the views are amazing. Came here to enjoy with family and got everything i asked for and some. Definitely recommend.

Our stay at Tortuga Ocean Oasis was perfect, my family and I all agree that we could not have chosen a better place to stay in El Sunzal. The house itself quickly felt like home, offering a beautiful kitchen with big sliding glass doors providing the option to let in the ocean breeze. From the porch you have a perfect view of the beach and surf break, and the sound of the waves lulls you to sleep. The rooms were very comfortable and tidy, the set up for the space is unique and allows you to feel like you have some privacy from those that you traveled with. Overall, this has been one of my favorite Airbnb experiences, I’m grateful to Sabrina for being so prompt and clear with communication. Thanks El Sunzal!

Casa de la Tortuga is absolutely a dream- it is an open concept built into the nature and landscape and has jaw-dropping views! There is ample space for large groups, we came for my 7 year olds birthday! The flora and fauna is beautiful and you really feel like you have stepped into an oasis- I could sit in their hammock and watch the surfers and the waves all day! The kids spent all day in the pool and loved the giant deck for doing arts and crafts. I loved the built in drinking water filter! Host incredibly responsive. Apt below is so convenient- two separate kitchen spaces for big groups and allows to spend quality together without being on top of one another. There are 3 bedrooms all separate spaces, PLUS an apartment with two bedrooms (4 beds); best of all, you are only a short 5 minute drive down to tunco or sunzal break (you can also choose to walk down!) to get a bite to eat, surf, swim in the ocean or check out nightlife- I will definitely be coming back- unforgettable spot!

I had an absolutely spectacular time. It’s been a while since I felt so deeply relaxed within a short amount of time while still being energized from the surf and exploring the surroundings. The view of the ocean is gorgeous. If I could choose, I’d love to spend as much time as possible at this hidden gem of a place.

We loved our stay in this beautiful home. The property is extremely well thought out, comfortable and spacious. It was very hard to say goodbye! Views are spectacular - we could watch the surfers at El Tunco and Sunzal surf spots and see the sunrise and set. The privacy of the home (set amongst trees and greenery) whilst being a stones throw from great beaches, bars and restaurants in El Tunco - gave us a really unforgettable experience. Having access to the surfboards and board games was a great bonus! Fast communication with Sabrina, our host, who is warm and ready to help with whatever you need. Thank you :) We feel very lucky to have found Tortuga - we will be back for sure!
