Amazing location, right on the beach, the food was great at the restaurant and the staff were so nice and accommodating. Great food options nearby and you can walk everywhere. Probably the best hotel location in el zonte in my opinion. We got a free upgrade and changed rooms after day 1 and had a nice private patio with a hammock. There were some issues with the maintenance in the room particularly the bathroom. The shower and sink both leaked and the shower door had some issues opening and closing and fell off the wheels the one time.

Our stay at El Xalli was amazing. I received clear communication from staff with information about a shuttle that was arranged for me at the airport. We arrived late and our check-in was extremely smooth. During our stay, the staff were extremely helpful always friendly. Everyone from a young man keeping the grounds clean to the bartenders all the way up to the manager. Every interaction I had with staff was professional, friendly, and outstanding. We would definitely return.

Frequently asked questions

What's included in an El Tunco vacation package?
An El Tunco vacation package lets you combine round-trip flights, your hotel stay, and often a rental car. As a beach destination, El Tunco offers direct access to the sand and surf at many of its hotels.

Exactly what's included will vary by hotel and package, so it's worth reviewing the details before you confirm your booking.
How can I save money on a El Tunco vacation package?
When you bundle, you can save up to 30%*. To save money on a El Tunco package, consider traveling during the quieter months or be flexible with your dates to find more options. Bundling your flights and hotel together often unlocks savings compared to booking separately. *Members only. Savings vary.
Is El Tunco better suited for a beach vacation or a cultural trip?
El Tunco is primarily a beach and outdoor destination, making it ideal for travelers seeking sun, surf, and scenic views. Its coastline is dotted with popular spots like Playa El Tunco and Sunzal Beach, which are well-known for surfing and relaxing by the Pacific Ocean.

While beach activities are central to an El Tunco vacation, the area also offers opportunities for nature and cultural excursions. You can explore the natural beauty of Lake Coatepeque, located about 19 miles away, or visit the ancient Mayan village of Joya de Ceren, about 4 miles from El Tunco, for a glimpse into El Salvador's history.

Browse and book things to do in El Tunco on Expedia.
Do you need to rent a car in El Tunco, or is public transport enough?
For an El Tunco vacation package, a rental car offers the most flexibility, especially if you plan to explore beyond the immediate beach towns. While El Tunco itself is walkable, many attractions like Lake Coatepeque (about 19 miles away), El Boquerón Crater (about 11 miles away), or Joya de Ceren (about 4 miles away) are best reached by car.

However, local public transport is available for getting between the various beach towns. Chicken buses are a common way to travel, with routes like Bus 80 going to La Libertad and Bus 192 connecting to El Zonte. For El Tunco beach vacation packages with flights, a car is recommended for day trips, but local buses can cover shorter distances between coastal communities.
Can I change or cancel my El Tunco vacation package if my plans change?
Yes, you can cancel your vacation package via your itinerary page on Expedia or by contacting customer service. Remember that some packages are fully refundable, but the details vary based on each unique booking. A fully refundable package may depend on how far out from the travel dates you're canceling and what airline you are traveling with.
