Complimentary Wi-Fi and airport shuttle services add to the convenience of the stay.

The setting offers a quiet retreat where visitors can connect with nature, as reflected in guest comments praising the peaceful surroundings and scenic views.

Best service we ever experienced. The owner went out of her way to make sure our stay was perfect, amazing! We always ate at the hotel, which was also delicious. Rooms were amazing and the view WAUW! Make sure to have a SUV when driving up, but that is the case for all the hotels here! Sure coming back!!

Amé La Paz que encontré en Sal de Mar, es un lugar para desconectarte y conectar con uno mismo, siempre que necesite armonía para bajar el estrés, este es el lugar. Me sentí muy consentida por el staff, son cálidos y amables, me trataron como su familia. El silencio del lugar me ayudó a desconectarme y descansar. Los sonidos de la naturaleza en la noche, son preciosos. La vista del hotel es hermosa, me sentí en el cielo. La construcción del hotel y cada una de los espacios de este, se nota que lo hicieron con amor y cuidado. El camino para llegar a pesar que puede llegar a ser complejo (tampoco es imposible) lo disfruté mucho pues es parte de la realidad local.

Me gustó hospedarme en Hotel Sal de Mar porque la estética del lugar y la vista es muy bonita. Es muy cómodo, muy tranquilo y la atención por parte del personal es excepcional. Mi recomendación es que al momento de llegar no sigan las indicaciones de Google Maps ya que los manda a dar una vuelta muy larga, mejor sigan las señalizaciones que están a lo largo del camino; la subida puede llegar a ser pesada pero nos gustó porque te hace salir de lo común, entras mas en contacto con la naturaleza y haces ejercicio.

It was a perfect getaway. If you want to just relax and not do so much excursions then this is the place. We had stayed in mazunte, very hot Airbnb and right off the streets, when we found this place it was a dream. There is AC, which I don’t feel the need but it can be very hot here and sometimes you need a bit of AC to cool down the room. The location is one of the more complicated one. If you don’t tell the taxi exactly where to drop you off you may be accidentally dropped off at the staircase entrance which is not advisable when you have Luggage. If you are traveling with a backpack then it’s fine to do a mini hike. This area is still being develop, always the off beaten places can be a bit challenging but isn’t that what off beaten means? I would advised for a couple days here to just recharge and relax in your own cute comfortable bungalow with terrace and it’s charming hammock. The caretakers here are very kind and welcoming.

I have had a great time at this hotel. I have even came back several times with friends and by myself. The view is magnificent, it is very clean and cozy.

We had a great stay at this beautiful place. The rooms are nice, well decorated and with AC. The view is great and most of all, the staff was super friendly to us and our little daughter. We checked in late but they prepared a delicious fresh meal and made us feel really at home. We stayed in and enjoyed the little pool. Yes, it is a bit of a steep road to get there, but nothing to really worry about. We’d definitely come back.

La ubicación en general esta bien aunque es necesario mencionar que queda en el cerrito/loma y para los autos puede costar trabajo llegar, puesto qué hay pedazos de terracería, así como el camino a pie está pesado por la subida de escaleras empinadas (Esta a 10 mins de la orilla del mar), si eres flojo y no pretendes hacer este ejercicio extra, sí te recomiendo subir y bajar en auto. Si deseas un lugar a orilla de mar, este hotel NO es para ti. Su ubicación ofrece una vista hermosa y a su vez una estancia tranquila y alejada del bullicio nocturno (con los respectivos ruidos nocturnos de la naturaleza). La atención es buena, se siente un ambiente cálido y humano. La cabaña familiar (a un costado de la alberca) NO tiene aire acondicionado, solo ventiladores; así mismo no la recomiendo para niños, ya que la planta alta está abierta y algún infante podría trepar en caso de ser hiperactivo, y las escaleras pueden resultar peligrosas para pequeños, incluso los adultos deben tener un poco de cuidado; independientemente de ello es muy bonita (tiene baño completo abajo y medio baño arriba). Las demás habitaciones son más pequeñas, pero están bonitas y cada una tiene su atractivo. Otro detalle a mencionar es que sus Baños no están aislados (el superior de la cabaña familiar sí), solo hay una bardita que los separa de la recámara/cama y ciertamente no están limpiados con cloro o algún otro químico abrasivo, ya que mencionan que se limpian con productos que no dañen el ecosistema.
