Hotel Michanti

Fantastic, relaxing hotel a short walk from the beach. The hammock room and pool were both wonderful spaces to relax, and the food was delicious.

I liked the willingness of the staff to help with all our needs! I will definitely recommend and come back as well!

PROS: - Super lovely and cheerful welcome from Luis when we carried our first load of luggage over from a different hotel. He was incredibly friendly and more than happy to put our luggage aside whilst our room was getting ready. - Lovely staff at the restaurant also! - I really liked the quiet vibe and the Caribbean music. Very relaxing! - Super cute (but very small) bunk-bed-style room. Modern and clean. Good air-con. - Super peaceful at night and I slept soooooo well — until 4.30am when the rooster started up each morning! - Superb food (every single meal I ate here was amazing!) — a large menu with good choice for even the fussiest of eaters amongst us - Loved the hammock and eating area above the rooms - Check out the small book exchange (in the hammock area) - I thought the board games on each table in the restaurant was a nice touch — something a little different - Breakfast was included and we were given 5 options of the 10+ on the a la carte menu CONS: - Staff were always cleaning (and I mean ALWAYS!), which is nice … but this also meant that at 6.30am — when you’re trying to sleep — you can hear them sweeping right outside your door - We were a tad surprised our room wasn’t cleaned every day (the trash bins weren’t even emptied), especially considering the place my friend had stayed earlier in the week — a cheaper and less fancy hotel — had daily housekeeping

We absolutely loved this place. The breakfast was amazing, the service outstanding .Dennis made sure we had food and drinks and give suggestions about places to visit.I highly recommend the yoga class ,the instructor is great !!! The pool , the surroundings is breathtaking. We will be back to this property.

I can go on and on about this place it was INCREDIBLE! The staff is so attentive, it's super clean, the food is DELICIOUS, they have yoga classes, the pool is beautiful and clean, hammocks for relaxation, and it's truly a place you never want to leave. The beach is less than a 5min walk away. They even went as far as to reach out to me the night before I was getting there to help me arrange a pick-up from Santa Tecla. I cannot recommend this place enough. There aren't any shops here - this is definitely more of a relaxation place BUT you can get to El Tunco (shopping bars etc) which we did in 15mins its not really a hassle to get there - they arranged our drop off and pick up too! I am so glad I found this little piece of heaven in El Zonte. I cannot wait to come back. Those that wrote weird reviews about this place - I'm sorry but I DON'T GET IT! Book this place I promise you won't regret it.

Expensive rate, for poor rooms and conditions . I will expect more; i don’t have tv on the room, no light on the stairs for my room. No access to the beach and the publicity said “they have it”

I’ll start with what I liked. Incredibly kind and helpful staff. Nice pool and good menu with excellent food. Great location as only 2 mins from beach. What I didn’t like was all the construction around the hotel which they warmed me about. Also, the water situation was terrible. On three different occasions, I went into the shower to find there was no water. Once I was even totally lathered up and had to wipe all the soap off with a towel. I feel like this might be more of an infrastructure thing rather than limited to just this hotel. Finally, they offered to pick me up from the airport and it was $65. I found out later that Ubers usually charge around $30-$35.

The best staff, setting, and community to come stay at when visiting El Zonte. I stayed for over a month and it was such a good experience, not to mention the hotel is beautiful and close to everything you could ever want. 10/10 would recommend to anyone!

This was such a cute location w just a 3 min walk to the beach. The food was soo great. The staff was extremely sweet and the accommodations were perfect. I would stay here again.
