About this house rental
El Zonte is one of the most magical and beautiful places in all of El Salvador. I guess that’s because it’s amazing landscape and beautiful ocean rhythm.
Peñiscola, a trilling and beautiful spot in El Zonte. It has been in our family for quite some time. Since 2008 we decided to open our doors to public.
Peñiscola is located on an amazing cliff, which allows an incredible 200-angle ocean view and the comfort of a beachfront property.
Around this magical landscape there are plenty of perfect waves to surf, or simply relax by taking a beautiful long swim at the ocean.
¨Travelling is not only about where you stay but the quality of the service to¨.
In Peñiscola we prioritize in your comfort with a full time housekeeper, cook assistant; and a full time caretaker.
Optional Services include; Airport Pick Up & Drop Off, On Site Masseuse, Nanny Services, Adventure tours and extreme sports.

A little bit more…
Well, in general, El Salvador’s coastline and the surrounding regions are filled with magical coves, villages, and cool mountain ranges minutes from the coast. The exploration of the local culture and mingling with the ever-friendly Salvadorian people is right outside your door. You can begin your day at the beach, then venture out for some mid day exploration to the volcanoes, Mayan ruins, rain forest, mountains, lakes, rivers, cities etc. and still be back at the beach for a sunset surf session or refreshment before dinner.

This is our second time staying at Marissa’s house! The views are incredible! My family enjoys the pool and the easy access to the beach (must climb stairs- great exercise). The place was a bit dusty but I’m sure it’s because of the constant wind. The day we got there, there was some wind storm at night! The housekeepers are very helpful. Very nice family. The house is about 1/2 hr from a supermarket, so you have to plan ahead. There isn’t a big selection of restaurants to order from, unless you leave the house and drive to some close by restaurants!
Marissa was having work done at the house during our stay, which was an inconvenience for us and I wasn’t made aware. Marissa checked in on us and I brought it up to her attention and she was very receptive! I was also confused about check in and check out time. The app has it listed for 10am check in and 7pm check out, when I spoke to Santos (housekeeper) he said it was 12pm but that we could leave by 1pm latest. I feel like communication needs a bit of improvement. I should’ve reached out to Marissa, but at that point it didn’t make a big difference for us.
My husband and kids love the house and they look forward to coming back every year!
El Salvador is a beautiful place to spend a family vacation in & this place has made all the difference!

My second stay at peniscola and wont be my last.
For those of you curious.... private beach, private pool, ac, wifi, tons of places to veg out, relax, read and soak up beauty. El Zonte is a special place... a little off the beaten path but so much the better. The pictures dont do it justice..sunsets are magical.
Santos/Karen are such a pleasure and super helpful...at this point I consider them friends.

The house is more than beautiful, it has a lot of space to just hang around in it. Perfect for vacations or even a just a weekend. The owner is a lovely person. We enjoyed our stay, the weather, the view and the accommodations are 100% recommended.
Once again, it is a perfect place to stay and have a lovely time!!

Fantastic coastal property with spectacular views, luxurious grounds, friendly and helpful staff and great accommodations. Great for a romantic get-away or a large family reunion. We enjoyed every aspect of our stay - the beach with private access, outdoor shower, pool area, outdoor dining, gazebo for dramatic sunsets, and expansive grounds. Beachcombing, night-time ocean dips, and the sunsets were our favorite. We were also close to wonderful 3 and 4 star dining. We will definitely return as soon as possible!

We visited for 8 days and the house was great. The house overlooked a nearly private beach that we went swimming and surfing at every day. The owner was very helpful in getting all of our needs met. I'd recommend this house especially for multiple families.

This property far exceeded our expectations.
Came here for a 9-day surf trip with some friends and was completely blown away. There are three main hang-out areas: the main house with 3 bedrooms and a large open veranda with a bunch of hammocks; the gazebo on the point, incredible view; the west residence which houses the kitchen, 2 bedrooms and abuts the pool.
Pool very, very nice and relaxing. Private steps down to a private beach and a hideaway, super-refreshing outdoor shower.
It is a walk to the main surf point but well worth it for the beauty of this house. It should also be noted that the 2 bedrooms in the west building do not have air conditioning, but everyone was quite comfortable with the ceiling fans nonetheless.
Santos and Karin took exceptional care of our party. Cooking when we asked, guiding the uninitiated into La Libertad for supplies on occasion.
I have been to Playa El Zonte many times but most of my friends had not. Now they will all be coming back.

My husband and I stayed at Casa Peniscola five nights during the first half of our honeymoon in El Salvador. This house is amazing, with truly gorgeous views from any spot on the spacious property. As others have mentioned, the master bedroom is spacious and filled with light, while the other four bedrooms (with 2 twin beds each) are smaller and more basic, but certainly clean and suitable. The kitchen is well stocked if you are cooking your own meals (as we did), with great grilling options on the back patio. We did not rent a car, but often caught the bus which passes on the street outside the gated driveway. It is .25 or .50 cents for a bus ride down the coast to other surf spots (Sunzal etc.) or to La Libertad. You can walk 10 minutes to surf El Zonte point break, or surf the beach break in front of the house. We found we didn't really need a car at all. Our favorite aspect about the house was the many different spots outdoors to sit or relax- from the shady gazebo overlooking the ocean to the three giant hammocks, to cushioned couches, wooden tables, breakfast nooks, poolside lounging chairs, etc. etc. The landscaping is impeccable as well. From the property, you can walk down the spiral stone staircase to the ocean (passing by an awesome outdoor shower!), to explore a magnificent natural arch/cave and black sand beach. Such an incredible spot!!! Finally, Santos and Karin were lovely and helpful hosts. Thank you, Marisa, for giving us such a fabulous experience and memorable honeymoon!!!

What an amazing place!!! It was true that it was even better than you could imagine. The staff, Marisa, the food, the gorgeous beach and the property were perfect. It was so great to have the ocean at your doorstep for surfing but then the 10m pool to cool off in. My husband, 2 kids (14 and 16) and I enjoyed the relaxing location but with the help of Marisa and Angel, managed to go to San Salvador and to the Ruta de las Flores as well. Would recommend this villa very highly.

This was one of the most amazing places we've ever stayed. We had a great time here with our three kids, aged 3-11. We loved the mellow beach that was right down the stairs, for swimming and playing in the sand. We really liked the easy walk on the beach to El Zonte, which was accessible almost always except at the highest of tides, and going through the tunnels which are beneath the property. The caretakers were thoughtful, kind, helpful, and really fun to be around. We hope to be back for sure! The property is well designed on a very special piece of land.

The house was done in a colonial Spanish style that overlooks a wonderful beach that makes for amazing sunsets and beautiful nights. This place is very relaxing for meditation and stress-relief purposes. It's secure, reliable, and by far one of the most isolated black sand beaches I've ever experienced. The beach alone is worth 5 stars. Im not sure you can find a better beach house in el Salvador, but it will be hard to beat. I would utilize the trained staff while visiting, they are friendly and accomplish most of the tasks that are given.
It is isolated, so make sure you bring a car rental or driver. Would be my ideal place to stay for a vacation in el Salvador.

The pictures don't do justice to this gorgeous house, which we have rented with friends and family three times now. It sits on a cliff overlooking a beach shared with a few other houses, the waves and sun and breeze are perfect, you can walk a few minutes to tasty beach-side restaurants at El Zonte (which is perfectly tranquil and safe), the staff will shop for you and clean up after you cook. It's our favorite place to go in El Salvador!
