4.87 out of 5 average rating, 63 reviewsALMA DE MAR Luxury Villa, La Libertad, El Salvador
BREATHTAKING! Absolutely beautiful and clean villa. The staff was super friendly and responsive. The house is located in a gated community. You’ll definitely need a 4x4 vehicle. The beach is walking distance. Overall the view from the house is impeccable. The sunset was magical! Will definitely be returning!

Villa in El Sunzal
4.94 out of 5 average rating, 86 reviewsCasa Las Piedronas| cliffside ocean bliss retreat
We had a extremely wonderful stay with our family. The views are unmatched and the pictures don’t do it justice. Plenty of outdoor seating and views. The home was very clean and I’m somewhat OCD. The property is very traditional with common areas without AC, but it’s really not a bother. You can easily get transportation anywhere that the staff will call. Many good restaurants and La libertad are super close. We especially loved El Tunco and a lot of variety and local vendor shop/foods a 7 min car ride away. The staff of the house is the beacon that sets apart this AirBNB apart from the rest of Airbnbs. Their cooking is incredible and they are very accommodating and clean. We loved their cooking better than the restaurants. We loved Ale and Doña Estrella who go above and beyond. The master bedrooms / bathrooms (like the casitas) could use a refresh, but they are very clean. The beds and air conditioning are amazing.
Villa in La Libertad
5 out of 5 average rating, 77 reviewsPunta Elephante-Hacienda Style Villa @ ocean cliff
I can't begin to express how happy my family and I are to have stayed at Herbert's incredible home. The oceanfront views, the size and comfort of the home, and the convenience of its location relative to El Tunco, El Zonte, La Libertad were all just the tip of the iceberg. Herbert and the on-site staff were the real highlight. They made us feel like family and made themselves available to every need and every request we made. My family and I will make Herbert's house our preferred place to stay on extended family vacations to El Salvador. Thank you, we'll see you again soon!
