My girlfriend and I studied Spanish in Antigua until last week and accidently found an advertising for this hotel in the Toku Baru Restaurant (- also a great, cheap place). We checked their website and decided to book the Beach Bungalow. Due to the arrival of a large group of US students there was only one of the Suites available... More

The PSH has something for everyone and any budget. We enjoyed one of the suites but all of the accommodations are nice. Fun waves (best in the morning) out front and down the beach. Very relaxing, good food, and a great staff, including the manager Raby. She will help you out with anything. This place was a great escape from... More

We headed to Guatemala´s Pacific Coast last weekend and visited in a tiny village called El Paredon. We stayed at the Paredon Surf House (not to be confused with El Paredon Surf Camp…a different, slightly more affordable accommodation). Now, this was exactly how I had pictured my weekend beach getaway – all the incredible beauty of the black sandy beaches... More

If your looking for a great surf spot with a friendly staff on the coast of Guatemala, look no further then El Paredon Surf House. Surfing all day at this little surf magnet of a beach is rewarded with delicious family style meals in the evening. One has to enjoy this quite setting and let the days roll by with... More

I really needed to find somewhere to decompress from the world as I knew it, away from the maddening crowds of traditional mid winter surf travel. A friend of mine suggested I look into this little jewel of a place in the middle of nowhere, at the end of a dirt road on the Pacific coast of Guatemala. The first... More

The pool was great, the food was the best we had in Guatemala! I'm still missing the breakfasts! My husband enjoyed the great uncrowded surf. Just keep... More

El Paredon Surf House is great for many reasons and the first is its situation, straight in front of a nice beach break. The surf spot is never crowded and the local surfers are really nice (and good!). On top of that, the place is clean, cute anf comfy. I stayed in the group loft, which has 8 beds, and... More

I found the Surf House through "Couchsurfing" and was given the first night free:) Thanks Raby:) Ive been motorcycling from Boston, USA and Im currently in Chile and I can honestly say the Surf House was the only place I truley felt at peace and relaxed... Incredible beach, good ocean quality, safe/friendly... More

We spent 4 days at Paredon at the beginning of our two week trek through Guatemala. It was definitely the best experience of our trip. A great, warm feeling. Beautiful, peaceful location. Raby, the current manager, was awesome. Christof, one of the owners, has created a unique environment to surf, relax, and connect with locals and international travellers. This place... More

Just a quick note to tell how impressed I am with the beach house-turned-hotel! The suite with the private bathroom is now my newest all-time favorite place to stay! I truly mean that … the “outdoor” shower, the view of the ocean right outside the front door, the hammock on the front veranda … I don’t think there’s a thing... More
