Great Orvis-endorsed Lodge! Excellent accomodations, terrific food, wonderfully friendly and attentive onsight owners and staff and, of course 400 square miles of some of the best flats fishing you've ever seen -- and the guides to get you there.

My wife (not a fisher) visited El Pescador for a week in April. From start to finish, the owners and staff at El Pescador created a truly unique experience. Each member of the El Pescador team was extremely attentive to our every need, no matter how unusual our request. Miss Judy expertly managed every aspect of our stay and Ed... More

Excellent atmosphere, staff and facilities for fishermen. The rooms are basic, no tv, phone etc., but comfortable and clean. The lodge is organized so that guests socialize together after fishing, so as a solo person you don't feel alone. As a fishermen there are lots of like minded people to hang with. It is expensive and somewhat inflexible on fishing... More

My wife and I were greeted at the San Pedro airport by a member of the El Pescador staff who transferred our bags to a boat at a nearby dock. After providing us with a couple "cold ones", he took us on a 10 minute boat ride up the coast to the lodge where other staff members took our bags... More

This was my second visit to El Pescador, I went with a friend the first time and it was so good that I have just taken my wife and 15yr old daughter Georgina. We had the most amazing time, the staff were great, very friendly and welcoming. We normally holiday in Mallorca and this is so different, the resort, the... More

The major focus of El Pescador's activities revolve around fishing, predominantly fly fishing. That being said, this is no 'fish camp'. I found the staff to be exceptional, the food outstanding, the general environs very pleasant, and the facility to be very clean. The only thing I would advise prospective guests is that the villas at El Pescador are superior... More

Thoroughly enjoyed my experiences at El Pescador. Staff were professional, friendly and ever willing to go the extra mile. Fishing guides were outstanding. Access to Mayan ruins, the reef and other adventures was easy. Food was outstanding. Rates very reasonable. All in all, I will be back.

Everyone at El Pescador was helpful and friendly. I was unsure of fishing for 4 days but it was such a wonderful experience I would go back again. The food was excellent and the entire staff went out of there way to make sure we had everything we needed

Although primarily a fishing lodge, the resort was an incredibly wonderful choice for our family's spring break. We were traveling with a 10 and 13 year old and found the staff attentive, helpful and very accomodating. We did not use the lodge's meal plan but joined in for 2 of the night's and several breakfasts- we all enjoyed our meal... More

This is a very well run lodge that makes sure guests are comfortable and having a good time. It's not just for fishermen! They offer access to diving, snorkeling , sailing, kayaking, biking etc. Best of all, they have these delicious family style dinners where guests can dine together if they choose! They are tons of fun! The staff here... More
