About this house rental

“Casa Los Riscos” is a home retreat located in an amazing and unforgettable setting, in the middle of El Salvador’s West Coast--the country’s most popular tourist destination. Nestled inside the secure, gated community of “Xanadu”, “Casa Los Riscos” is perched high atop a cliff with breathtaking views! Here the ocean and sky become one spectacular panorama with birds playfully soaring at eye level. Against this dramatic backdrop, a stunning Polynesian-styled wood deck reaches out to the sky. Beside this deck, a pool, jacuzzi, hammocks and lounge chairs all await your pleasure. Complementing this lovely setting is a lush terraced garden and a greenbelt of mature native trees. Imagine yourself sitting on this beautiful deck enjoying an 'Al Fresco' meal of freshly caught seafood…...a refreshing breeze blows in as the sights and sounds of the Pacific Ocean serenade all your senses! No wonder the Mayans called this part of El Salvador “Cuscatlan”, “The Land of Precious Things”.

Our home has been renovated to provide guests a spacious, gracious retreat. The colorful, sophisticated décor blends architectural design with elements of El Salvador’s Mayan culture. The main house features a large master bedroom with a private bathroom, plus two other bedrooms and a second bathroom. There is a well-appointed indoor living & dining room space, a fully equipped kitchen, laundry / maid quarters, and an outdoor covered porch overlooking the pool and gardens. A detached ocean-view bedroom with two bunk beds and a private bathroom is located below the pool deck. To top it off, this private community offers members and guests a secluded pearl-sand swimming beach, a large swimming pool and an adjacent community picnic area, all within a 5-minute walk or 2-minute drive.

“Casa Los Riscos” is centrally located and we encourage our guests to venture out to explore the many points of interest nearby, some just minutes from the property, none more than a few hours away. Several dining options are just outside the community. Enjoy taking a variety of day trips: to the mountain coffee towns of Apaneca, Ataco & Juayua (Ruta de las Flores); to the modern city of San Salvador (about one hour away) for shopping and entertainment; or to the local fisherman’s wharf in the port of La Libertad. Additional adventures include a national parks system with majestic volcanoes and forests to tour, as well as many other scenic sights and cultural events. Finally, let's not forget the surfing El Salvador is known for! “Casa Los Riscos” is next door to some of the best Surf Central America has to offer. In places like El Tunco, El Sunzal, Punta Roca and El Zonte, the epic surf waves at any of these popular locations will make for some awesome entertainment. So, whether you are a surfer looking for action, a family looking for a magical cultural experience or just wanting to get a away and relax in the sun and ocean, this retreat can offer you a vacation filled with memories that will last a life time!!!

I booked this property mainly for the location and because is in a gated community with guards. This home has amazing views of the ocean but you are not able to see the sunrise or the sunset due to the location is facing, nonetheless the views of the ocean and the area is very beautiful, even at night you can see the sky so full of stars and the sound of the waves is very soothing. The outdoor pool and deck with hammocks is definitely the focal point of the house, we spend so many hours enjoying the pool and the views. Also has access to a private beach, where you can even do a bonfire. Another thing I want to note is the owner was very accommodating with us by letting us checking early, we arrive on a red eye flight and they allowed us to check very early. However the house is in need of some TLC and deep cleaning. paint is chipping of the walls in the bathrooms and rooms, which was a concern to me due to led and asbestos exposure. the shower head in the master bathroom is rusted completely, I would recommend replaced the shower head.s. The AC unit in one of the rooms leaks from condensation causing the wall to bubble, the bed in the master room had a broken leg and the refrigerator door was not closing properly, we contacted Guayo the care taker and the bed was fix and he kind of managed for the refrigerator door to close. We didn’t put items on the door so that stayed close, the fans are wobbly and there was lots of ants in the kitchen making difficult for cooking. I had also rented one of the quarters for my brother and his family to stayed over the weekend with us, but it had a sewer smell so intolerable that they couldn’t sleep there, they slept in hammocks and the couches, the owner volunteered to reimburse 3 nights due to the smell. One night was not reimbursed because they slept there. Which I was ok with. I like some of the decorations but the furniture is also in need of some upgrading, the dinning chairs are very comfortable to sit, actually the deck dinner was more comfortable than the one inside the house. The master room if you roll the blinds has a nice view of the ocean but the windows are so dirty that you can’t see it clearly. Overall the house has a welcoming home feel to it, is a beautiful house with great potential. For Location I would give the house a 5, Safety 5, cleanliness 2, condition 2, furniture 2., staff 2 ( Guayo and cleaning lady) owner a 5, he always responded in a timely manner.

I’ll start with the positives: Nice, quiet, safe location. This neighborhood (Xanadu) is a true, inconspicuous gated community, with beautiful homes in a perfect nestled-between-the-cliff location. It has its own private beach, and a real zen-feel. You’re central to the best beach towns, El Tunco and El Zonte with the best food and shopping options. The guards keep the gate well protected and always had two on staff (I believe day and night). For the house, the beautiful outdoor patio area is terraced with truly breathtaking ocean views. You are literally on the cliff, looking down a 100 foot gully to the ocean. Outdoor living is the point of this house, which is why I booked it to begin with. You could stay here all day and just breathe the gentle ocean breeze, while swinging in a hammock under the lanai. Or, cool off in the pool, and lay under the hot El Salvadoran sun. It’s all good, made better with a well-designed landscape of bougainvillea, mature trees, and coastal plants. The internet is fast, BTW. Our contact, Reynaldo, is not local but had great communication. He was both responsive and helpful. He reached out prior to the trip to ensure we were set to arrive and provide details. He definitely took care of us. For the negatives: The house is in need of updating. Even some fresh paint would help here. But that’s not really the issue. Although it’s quaint, and really does have a feel of a lived-in home, and to some degree it’s cozy warm and inviting, it’s kind of falling apart. The beds and bedding and minimal, and beyond the master bed, the beds are super uncomfortable. We had quite the ant problem (but used to that). Overall, I would say that you’re paying for the location and views, not the house. I feel that it’s maybe $50-$70 per night overvalue. But, If you’re looking for an amazing, safe location and if you have a party of 5 or more, this is the perfect spot.

My family loved this place. We have the most memorable time, specially by the big outdoor dining Table. Honestly, one of the best, if not THE best places we have ever stayed. Relaxing, great views, and great design. We felt like royalty. Many memories were made. We hope to get back soon!

The space is great, especially outdoors. The pools are also very nice although they look a bit different from their photos. The kitchen is great as are the rooms. Overall a great home to relax and enjoy the coast.

This is a gorgeous property in a very safe gated neighborhood with private beach. I was looking for a safe place to spend time with my family and boyfriend who has never been to El Salvador. We loved the beautiful pool and our favorite spot to hang out was the awesome deck overlooking the ocean. The decorations in this home are so cozy and colorful in every room. The location is also great. It’s nearby the famous surf spot el tunco. We are not surfers but we enjoyed walking around the town, shopping and having some drinks at the bars. There’s also breweries and nice restaurants nearby. The only one thing I wished was different is that the beach didn’t have so many rocks. Locals were saying that it all depends on the time of the year you go. Overall we loved this beach house and highly recommend it.
