Budget Dorms, Boutique Bungalows & Surf Camp Packages

El Paredón offers a wide range of accommodation directly on the Pacific beach, from budget-friendly surf hostels with dorm beds to stylish boutique hotels with private bungalows and ocean views.

This little beach town is delightfully underdeveloped, authentic, and relaxed. This is not a resort town by any means. Lots of small hotels and hostels. The temperature stays hot at night, and you might have difficulty sleeping. The beach was mostly clean, and the waves were good.
