We stayed at the Pez de Oro just for two nights last August. The reviews on this site are mixed, so we weren't sure what to expect (the more recent ones are more positive, interestingly). We liked our little cabin, painted in bright blues and yellows, with private bathroom. It had a much-needed fan, but it was more comfotable (heat-wise)... More

Nice quiet place during the week. Right on the beach next to the Tortugario. Clean rooms and restaurant. Good Italian food. Nice grounds. Nice staff. Fills up on the weekend.

I recently stayed at el Pez de Oro with my family over our summer vacation, and I must say we loved it. It has all the wonderful charm one would expect of a beach hotel. Every bungalow is painted in a unique colorful way, and both pools are just wonderful to relax in. Apart from the unbelievable service, the food... More

The reason I gave this hotel three stars and not two is because the place is really lovely, the fact that it has two small pools and the porche in front of each bungalow has a hammock and chair is probably a reason why you don't feel cramped when the place is packed. You have your privacy and space and... More

My family of 6 people (4 adults and 2 children) stayed here the fourth week of July. We booked a bungalo for my wife and I, and one for our son and his family. Both rooms had two queen-size beds, and a private bath with shower. Rooms were clean, spacious and well appointed with a ceiling fan and mosquito nets... More

Hotel Pez de Oro is one of Monterico’s many small beach fronted hotels with spacious thatched roof bungalows interspersed between coconut palms and two small pools. Each bungalow has it’s own bathroom with cold shower and white towels. And is strung with a hammock, linen curtains and mosquito nets, and although basic are pleasantly presented and very good value for... More

I went to great lengths in selecting the right hotel in Monterrico for my 4 night break away from spanish school. From looking at guide books, reviews and speaking to people there seemed to be a fault with all the hotels along the beach. However i decided Pez de Oro ticked the majority of the boxes and thought i would... More

We had heard great things about Pez de Oro and were looking forward to our stay. But when we got there we just couldn't stay the night. The rooms are small bungalow types with brightly painted walls. But the interiors are dark, musty, and filled with cobwebs. The grounds aren't much. And the pool.... well it would get 5 stars... More

We stayed in Hotel Pez de Oro for 4 nights after lake Atitlan, Antigua, and Taklik Abaj to get some nice relaxing time by the beach. The hotel was cute and the huts were painted in vibrant colors. It was quite comfortable with a ceiling fan and mosquito nets(necessity here). We could hear the sound of the ocean and it... More
