Pelicano Beachfront Oasis: Private Sunset Terrace - Houses for Rent in Playa San Diego, La Libertad, El Salvador

We stayed here two years ago and loved it, so we decided to come back. Unfortunately, this time we were very disappointed, as we found the property much more neglected. The most troubling thing was finding cat urine in the kitchen. In addition, the managers showed no initiative: you had to ask them to remove the garbage, change the bags in the bins, or replace the toilet paper. When we informed the host, she told us to talk to the manager, which we did not think was an appropriate response. The property also needs maintenance; the pool has damaged tiles and there is mold on several walls. The place has a lot of potential due to its excellent location, but it needs to improve in terms of cleanliness, maintenance, guest service, and initiative on the part of those in charge of the place.

Hace dos años nos hospedamos aquí y nos encantó, por eso decidimos regresar. Lamentablemente, esta vez nos llevamos una gran decepción, ya que encontramos la propiedad mucho más descuidada. Lo más preocupante fue encontrar orines de gato en la cocina. Además, los encargados no mostraban iniciativa: había que pedir que retiraran la basura, cambiaran las bolsas de los botes o repusieran papel higiénico. Al informar a la anfitriona, nos indicó que habláramos con el encargado, respuesta que no nos pareció adecuada. La propiedad también necesita mantenimiento; la piscina tiene azulejos dañados y hay moho en varias paredes. El lugar tiene mucho potencial por su excelente ubicación, pero necesita mejorar en limpieza, mantenimiento y atención al huésped e iniciativa por parte de los encargados del lugar

The property was exactly as advertised and matched the photos perfectly. It offers direct beach access, a beautiful pool, and plenty of comfortable spaces to relax and unwind. The rooms are spacious, and best of all, the air conditioning works exceptionally well. Mr. Balmore and Ms. Anita were wonderful hosts. They were incredibly accommodating, and their genuine hospitality reflects the warmth and generosity for which Salvadoran culture is known. During our stay, we asked if they could prepare some meals for our group. They simply requested a menu, we provided funds for the groceries, and they took care of the rest. While this service is not included in the rental price, it is very affordable and absolutely worth it. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and I would not hesitate to stay here again.

Beautiful place I will definitely come back and stay longer. My family loved it

Nice experience. We had a good time with my family, and Ale was very nice to us.

bonita experiencia la pasamos bien con mi familia, y Ale fue muy amable con nosotros

Very good oceanfront place, private parking, large rooms. The issue is the pets, bad smell of cats in the kitchen, which is open.

El lugar muy bueno frente al mar, parqueo privado, cuartos grandes. El tema son las mascotas, mal olor de gatos en la cocina que está abierta.

The beach is easily accessible from the house. Plenty of sitting and lounging area, the pool was cute and fun for the family. Loved that every room had a full bathroom and AC. Overall, a good place for a little weekend getaway.

The beach house is in very good condition, clean, and nice. Super friendly and helpful. We would definitely come back!

La casa de playa en muy buenas condiciones limpio y lindo. Súper amables y atentos. Volveríamos sin duda!

Great home on the beach. Beach is clean. I was surprised that the kitchen is outdoors, it was okay but if you are cooking then this attracts more bugs. Would have preferred indoor kitchen. The pool was clean and so was the outdoor lounge space.

Your home is beautiful!!! We will definitely be back!

I really liked the ranch,definitely I will recommend this place if u come w a big group. The people that took  care of the ranch were very friendly, helpful, and kept the place clean...There's a  friendly dog that lives there lol.. The view is beautiful, sounds of the wave at night..Definitely u will enjoy the ranch, very peaceful.

The place's infrastructure is very nice, the rooms are pleasant and have nice views, the person who received us was very friendly and helped us a lot. However, it has little maintenance, it seems forgotten, very messy and very dirty, including the pool.

El lugar en infraestructura es muy lindo, las habitaciones agradables y con vistas lindas, la persona que nos recibió fue muy amable y nos ayudó muchísimo. Sin embargo, tiene poco mantenimiento parece olvidado, muy desordenado y muy sucio incluida la piscina.

An excellent place for family vacations, a very good location, a quiet place and super easy access to the beach

Excelente lugar para vacacionar en familia, muy buena ubicación, lugar tranquilo y acceso a playa super fácil

A very comfortable and well-equipped place. The layout of the spaces is very good, as there are common and private areas.

Lugar muy cómodo y muy bien equipado. La distribución de los espacios es muy buena ya que hay áreas comunes y privadas.

Excellent place, I would definitely come back.

Excelente el lugar, volvería a regresar definitivamente.

My stay at this ranch was perfect! Easy to find and Balmore welcomed us very well, he gave us the tour when we arrived. The ranch has an open concept, super clean and its Almond Tree in the center is spectacular… Its palm trees facing the sea make an Epic experience!! A terrace to watch the unique sunset!! If you're like me, who loves to watch the sunrise with a cup of coffee and do yoga, wow, the terrace is a plus during your stay 🤗🥰 The pool is super clean and the water temperature is perfect at any time of day. Large rooms and beds with air conditioning. No problem!! At night the sound of the waves was so relaxing!! The hammocks on the ranch are super comfortable, I have nothing negative to say. The kitchen is very large and has everything you need. I definitely give it a 10/10. There are no mosquitoes or bugs. No insects whatsoever, which means there is always good hygiene!! The beach is quiet but that's if the tide is always

Mi estadia en este rancho estuvo perfecto! Facil de encontrar y Balmore nos recivio muy bien, nos dio el tour al llegar. El rancho tiene un concepto abierto, super limpio y su Arbol de Almendros en el centro es espectacular … Sus palmeras frente al mar hacen una experiencia Epica !! Una terraza para ver el aterdecer unico!! Si eres como yo que me encanta ver el amanecer tomando una taza de cafe y hacer yoga Wow la terraza es un plus en tu estadia 🤗🥰 La picina super limpia y la temperatura del agua perfecta a cualquier hora del dia . Los cuartos y camas grandes con aire acondicionado Sin ningun problema !! En la noche el sonido de las olas era tan relajante !! Las Hamacas en el rancho super comfortables, no tengo nada negativo que decir. La cosina muy grande y con todo Lo necesario. Definitivamente le doy un 10/10 no hay mosquitos, ni sancudos. Ningun tipo de insectos cual significa que hay una Buena higiene siempre !! La playa Esta tranquila pero eso si la Marea siempre

One of the best ranchos I’ve stayed in El Salvador. Very spacious and with great beach access. The pool was awesome and the bedrooms were excellent.

Just like the staff, they are available for whatever you need. 100% recommended. Anything I needed👌, they took care of it. I would go back there, and the host responded quickly 100% of the time and is flexible in things that he can and cannot do. I recommend the host. Nice, quiet place.

tal como las personas que hay como personal estan pendiente en lo que necesite 100% recomendado 👌 cualquier cosa que nesecitava asía como resolverle a uno me facino volvería ahí y el anfitrión 100% respondía rápido y es flexible en cosas que puede y no puede hacer ale la anfitriona recomiendo lugar bonito trankilo

the villa was beautiful! some bugs but that is understandable. compared to other villas we have been in this one was great for the price. everything was pretty much clean. we ran into water issues but the workers fixed everything in a timely manner. Ale is super responsive and kind, Balmore was also excellent and helpful. thank you!!

As always this is a paradise in heaven balmore was attentive helpful friendly and always keeps the place looking great we enjoy this place I also like the rooms and bathrooms being separate and all the outdoor living thank you again for the place to stay

Thankful of Romero. He was ready to assist us.

Ale was a great host and Balmore was so inviting.  All instructions were very detailed and very helpful.  I highly recommend this beautiful home.

Great host and place. The family had an amazing time and having the beach 20 feet away was worth every penny.

awesome location... I almost don't want to leave a positive review so it can be available for the next time.we come!!!! but..... never! balmar was ever so attentive to our every requests!... we will be back!

Ideal location for a quiet and relaxing vacation. The beach access is perfect. The open space works very well. Enjoyed our stay!

My family stayed for 9 nights. Loved the place, caretakers are extremely friendly, responsive, and helpful. Beyond expectations. The villas bedrooms are huge, the pictures do not do it justice. They have warm water, which is not common in El Salvador. Pool was excellent and well maintained. The AC blows nice and cold. Beach front properly. What more to ask for?! We would absolutely come back here!

Beautiful private spot on the beach. Balmore was very friendly and helpful when needed. The place was a great lay out and had great access to little markets near by and quick access to the beach.

It was a great place, not a fan of the outside kitchen (so many flies) bathrooms need updating and need to look cleaner.  Pool would get dirty fast with debris and no cleaning net available. Other than that it was a great location.

The pictures of the place didn’t do it justice - the place is even more beautiful. The outdoor living space was magical and clean. The rooms were relatively clean, the AC worked, the bathrooms could use a little love. Wasn’t really sure what was shampoo vs body wash from the items provided. The kitchen had no supplies stocked ( salt, pepper, oil) so you’d need to make sure you consider those items when stopping at the grocery store. The Super Selecto is about 15 minute drive from the house. There was paper towels and water supplied. The housekeepers on site were helpful when asked for anything. There are two dogs and a cat on the property but friendly. The beach in front of the house is clean and not crowded at all.

Idyllic location with breathtaking views of ocean. Ale’s home is large with two ocean front rooms and plenty of places to relax in or out the sun and have fun. We enjoyed so very much and they give a friendly welcome.

Beautiful and clean, loved the pool and the beachfront access. We would definitely stay here again

Nice stay. Balmore lives on the grounds but is in no way disturbing. He's here for us, and quickly brings us what we need. Drinking water is provided in unlimited quantities. Very good service from him.

Beau séjour. Balmore habite sur le terrain mais n’est aucunement dérangeant. Il est là pour nous, et nous amène rapidement ce que nous avons besoin. L’eau potable est fournie en quantité illimité. Très bon service de sa part.

Simplemente. Gracias. Un lugar. Bien  hermoso

Amazing place! Loved everything about it. Perfect location, the man taking care of the place was friendly and helpful! We truly enjoyed our time.

It was a beautiful place to stay at. The beach was right at front and the pool wasn’t too deep which was perfect for the kids. My family and I had a great time there.

Ale and Baltimore were great. Baltimore was very attentive to our needs at any time we need it. I will definitely come back. The place is really beautiful. It doesn’t have hot water, but it wasn’t really needed since it’s hot. I would really recommend some more kitchen essentials, but the rest was excellent Customerservice. Thank you, Baltimore. We really appreciate everything you did for us.

Excellent location, very comfortable and accessible house

Excelente ubicación, casa muy cómoda y accesible

I will say the photo did not do the place justice it’s set up like 3 motel rooms with an open area I. The middle the kitchen is 1/2 &1/2 indoor and the views are stunning the house attendant was absolutely amazing and helpful I will say the address for the is not the correct house it’s down the street but over all easy to find we did not want to leave this place is a true paradise don’t think twice book it go and enjoy

We where absolutely stunned on how beautiful this place was, very quiet and peaceful. We arrived a little late but the host had everything ready for us and he was very attentive. We felt right at home and my family had a blast. I highly recommend this place to everyone who wants to enjoy life near the beach. Ale was very helpful and helpful with all the check in instructions. The amenities were superb, nice pool with some water toys and the hammocks were so comfortable, just outstanding place with a quick walk to the beach front.

excellent host! super safe area and the care of the managers excellent! super recommended! the house is very nice and very modern. the perfect description.

excelente anfitrión! zona super segura y la atención de los encargados excelente! super recomendado! la casa muy linda y muy moderna. la descripción perfecta.

My family and I enjoyed our stay so much. Balmore, the young man who takes care of the place, is amazing. He's very helpful; anything you need, he is there to help.

This place is very beautiful specially if you have a big family, good rooms and great ACs! The beach is right on your backyard so it’s perfect! Highly recommended!

The staff, Ana and Balmore are awesome, very helpful with anything you need. Definitely will comeback.

Very nice place, just the access is a little ugly

Muy bonito lugar, solo el acceso es un poco feo

The house is very nice. Very nice experience.

La casa es muy bonita. Muy agradable experiencia.

All time place on the beach!!! Great location!

Balmore is kind,friendly and helpful.  He had a solution for everything we asked for. He is one of the main reasons why my family and I are planing on returning next year. The profile pictures don't do justice to this spot, the beach access was great and waking up to the sound of the ocean was a wonderful feeling.

We loved the ranch was just as my family wanted it and I were delighted

Nos encantó el rancho estuvo tal y como lo queríamos mi familia y yo quedamos encantados

Our stay next to the beach was perfect for our family. We had the best time.

The staff on site were truly helpful and always available . My family and I felt safe and secure. It is a remote location with local food venders around selling al kids of bread, fruits and vegetables. Also local and near by bodegas with most other needs. I would be happy to return one day.

Really enjoyed my time here. Loved being able to open the back gate and step out onto the beach. It was quiet and private. Great for rest and relaxation. The caretaker was very helpful. El Tunco beach was a short drive away.

The house grounds were outstanding. Pool had warm water and the gazebo was the perfect place to relax. Unfortunately, I felt that the house needed more updates and maintenance. Pictures were better than reality.

Gracias Andrea por tus comentarios, desde entonces hemos dado el mantenimiento necesario.

Great location. Balmore is very attentive.

Really enjoyed the stay with the family. Would love to return in the future.

was very nice , pools was great and beach was amazing , was perfect.i would definitely one back , the house keeper was so attentive and so sweet , he was always there to help .

Pros: Kid friendly, felt safe, very private, flexible check out time, no bugs in rooms, friendly attentive house manager , strong AC, clean pool , beach front, outdoor showers, The location and sunsets amazing. The pros outweigh the cons and I’d go back a thousand times! Cons: Hard to find, very remote from main road, eateries, grocery store & gas station appx 30 minute drive on a very rocky dirt road. Cat and dog on premises (not a cat person) House staff doesn’t speak or understand English, use translate app for best response, he is super helpful though.

We had a wonderful stay and the people there were very helpful. I look forward to returning.

The place was even better than the pictures, the caretaker was awesome he was above and beyond with everything we needed or asked for! Very safe and kids friendly! We will definitely recommend to friends and family

everything's fine. Thank you and the managers of the place are very friendly, the beach is nice and the swimming pool is fine

todo muy bien gracias y los encargados del lugar muy amables, la playa bonita y la piscina bien

Very beautiful house, nice views, good size bedrooms and huge clean kitchen. Pool was a good size for our big family. The host was also very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend this place.

We loved the house. It is very cozy and it is in a very quiet area. We will definitely return.

Nos encantó la casa es muy acogedora y esta en una zona muy tranquila definitivamente regresaremos

Gracias por su comentarios Heidy, veré que todo funcione como debe ser. Feliz 2024.

Amazing! This place is everything you can dream of and more. Ana and Balmore took such good care of us and the property. The pool and walking distance to the beach was a dream come true!

The place is great and heavenly, right on the beach and 15 minutes by car from surf city. The spaces are very clean, no cleaning defects during our stay. The boy who takes care of the house is so kind and was present at every moment (advised us). We loved it. The rooms are woww, they all have bathrooms and air conditioning. Ale responded quickly to any questions I had.

L'endroit est génial et paradisiaque, directement sur la plage et a 15 minutes en auto de surf city. Les espaces sont très propres aucun défaut sur le ménage lors de notre séjour. Le garcon qui s'occupe de la maison est tellement gentil et a été présent a chaque moment (nous a conseillé). Nous avons adorés. Les chambres sont woww, elles ont tous des salles de bain et air climatisé. Ale a répondue rapidement a toutes mes questions et rapidement.

A very great place to stay. the host's right hand man, Balmore, is an excellent grounds keeper and will get you anything you may need to enjoy your stay.

Great place to stay, beautiful view and AC in every room. The people who worked in the property was super helpful

The place is big enough to accommodate a big family group. It is in front of the ocean with a great fresh breeze. The people that take care of this place were nice but hard to find when needed. We only stayed two days but had a few maintenance issues that were not resolved but were addressed to directly to the owner and he promised to take care of them. We hope to return in the future for longer time.

Ales’s place is awesome, the view and amenities were amazing! Perfect for a family getaway. The beach is a few steps from the place, 2 rooms have a beautiful view of the ocean, the place is nice, clean and the space is big.  Ale have always someone who can assist with any needs. I do recommend it is worth the price!

We had a nice time with the family, the house is as described by Ale and Balmore, who is the one who welcomes you very attentive and will always be there to support you in whatever you need 100 points for their attention.

Pasamos un tiempo lindo en familia, la casa es asi como la describe Ale y Balmore quien es quien te recibe muy atento y siempre estará para apoyarte en lo que necesites 100 puntos para sus atenciones.

The house is super comfortable for large families, very nice place!

La casa super comoda para familias grandes, muy lindo el lugar!

Excellent and beautiful place, the people who take care are super friendly and excellent hosts! We look forward to coming back! Thank you for an unforgettable weekend!!✨

Excelente y hermoso lugar, las personas que cuidan son súper amigables y excelentes anfitriones! Deseamos volver con ansias! Gracias por un fin de semana inolvidable!!✨

The yard of the home is absolutely amazing; it is very spacious with plenty of seating options, clean, and has great views of the beach. Just as pictured. The kitchen was fully stocked with anything we could need. The rooms were nice and spacious with comfortable beds. Balmore, the caretaker, was very kind and helpful. Only downside of the stay were the bathrooms; some were a bit dirty (definitely felt the need to wear sandals in the shower). Overall my family and I had a great stay here.

Ale’s place was beautiful and peaceful. Very private. The only thing is there was a bad smell on one of the rooms and the refrigerator. we cleaned and were able to use the refrigerator, but other than that it was a beautiful experience. The pool was amazing. You can cook on site or you can place an order for food from nearby restaurants that deliver your meal to your door. The onsite hosts Ana and her son were very nice:) I would definitely come back! Thank you Ale.

great place. super clean. great location right infront of the beach. Ale is a great host. Ana and Balmore are really great people that will take care of you. i will definitively come back. totally recomend this place

great place relax beach views I enjoy it.

We had an excellent time throughout the stay🤩 The ranch access is very easy to find, the people who welcomed us were very friendly from when we arrived until we retired. The ranch areas are very well distributed, which makes the spaces cozy and feel very comfortable, the rooms are spacious, each with its own bathroom and very clean. The pool and viewpoint towards the sea were the two things we enjoyed most with family. Definitely a great experience, we hope to visit again soon✨

La pasamos excelente en toda la estadía🤩 El acceso del rancho es muy fácil de encontrar, las personas que nos recibieron fueron muy amables desde que llegamos hasta que nos retiramos. Las áreas del rancho están muy bien distribuidas, lo que hace que los espacios sean acogedores y se sienta muy cómodo, los cuartos son espaciosos, cada uno con su baño y muy limpios. La piscina y el mirador hacia el mar fueron las dos cosas que más disfrutamos con la familia. Definitivamente fue una experiencia excelente, esperamos volver a visitar pronto✨
