The setting is spectacular with million dollar views of the Pacific and seasonally the setting sun. Unfortunately, it is necessary to balance the aesthetics with a concern for safety. The huts are made of highly combustible thatched palm leaves. Unaccountably management permits smoking in adjacent public areas, even providing ashtrays. This is probably in violation of national law, certainly offensive to the 85% of people who do not smoke, and creates a headline waiting to be written about tourist deaths by fire. No extinguishers are visibly present and the kitchen is not equipped with grease fire suppressors called for by code in most countries. The solutions are obvious, simple and low cost but until they are implemented guests must consider the risks versus the attractions of an otherwise unusually well-run and beautifully created hotel.

This place was very comfortable and chill. The food was amazing and resonably priced. The dinner was family style so it was a good way to make new friends too

Surf heaven
We loved the chilled vibe and relaxed atmosphere of this little surf slice of Heaven. Be prepared for a long journey from Guatemala City, arriving in the quiet little El Paredon village, where nothing much happens at all! It was a great spot to unwind after a busy trip and the surfing was on point. The delicious food and drinks served out of the kitchen are 5 star quality and delicious. Our suite was clean and we loved having a private, outdoor shower. Our only complaint was that the bed mattress was so old and lumpy, the pillows were even worse, making for a bad night's rest.

Beautiful place on a beautiful black-sand beach
We really enjoyed our stay at Paredon Surf House. It's a really cool place right on the beach, unlike anywhere I've stayed at before. The rooms were not luxurious but I didn't expect them to be. They had soaring thatched roofs and amazing views out to the beach. We stayed in a Beach Bungalow, which shares the bathrooms with other rooms, but the beach views more than made up for it. The owners Mayte and Jose were really warm and welcoming. The family dinner was definitely a highlight for us. Loved eating around the same table as all the other guests, which gave us a chance to make some new friends and have interesting discussions with fellow travelers. We'd definitely go back.

Es un lugar bonito. Pero las camas no son tan buenas, y los bungalows no son tan limpios. El agua de la ducha es agua salada.

Ambiente muy agradable, comida muy sabrosa y la cena está incluida en el precio. La playa un poco sucia que no tiene nada que ver el hotel sino la autodestrucción que los seres humanos estamos haciendo.

Response from Paredon Surf House on Aug 9, 2018
Estimada Iris, Gracias por su amable comentario. Lamentablemente usted y su esposo no sabían dónde venían exactamente, es muy importante leer la información del lugar que uno reserva. En primer lugar no sabían dónde estaba el hotel y debimos explicarles que tomaron la ruta incorrecta. Después de llegar recibieron un upgrade al que, por cierto, no hace referencia. Nuestros precios incluyen desayuno y almuerzo para todos los huéspedes pero usted tampoco lo tiene en cuenta al hacer su valoración sobre nuestros precios. Respecto al wifi se les ofreció la conexión al llegar pero decidieron conectarse más tarde. Aunque también se les aclaró que la Recepción abre de 7 am a 7 pm fue decisión de ustedes solicitar la conexión fuera de ese horario (cuando, por supuesto, nadie podrá conectarles). Realmente los empleados de Surf House se esforzaron por hacer su estadía lo más confortable posible, todos les recuerdan porque a ustedes nada les parecía bien. Les deseo una feliz estadía en Guatemala. Saludos,
