Staff super nice and fresh food. It is very hot, bring fresh clothes no a/c, but it is beautiful. ##### Kenneth Stayed 1 night in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Denise Mar 5, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Swell and dwell in peace Sure thing! Here's the review written out: "I recently stayed at Swell and Surf hotel and had a fantastic experience. The food was delicious, with a variety of options to choose from. The ambience was wonderful, creating a relaxing atmosphere throughout my stay. The hotel was clean, and had comfy beds. ##### Denise Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paul May 19, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great relaxing hotel in Paredón Hotel is very nice and the rooms with AC are great (take note of other comments about the loft rooms) - it was quiet and relaxing - great pool (will do the pool rooms next time). Restaurant is geared mainly for breakfast and lunch rather than dinner. But plenty of places along the beach to try. Drinks and food are good a reasonably priced. Only thing to note (and not sure it’s on Hotels.com - and wasn’t mentioned when checked in) is if you pay by card they will add an additional 7% to the bill. Will definitely return :) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/B848DC5213A283C8BC26BEFDFC8555AAA4D350821716143893883.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2F8C09354D34D4EA168910F41F72DE3D7392B7A41716143894345.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Outdoor bathrooms ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6BD08EB7503A6AD5F72EA177D489A32F523FAED01716143893267.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2D4A66A9EE011694702A65FF41B8B3FD3BDC37A61716143894565.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Paul Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Jul 22, 2023 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness Our sheets were dirty.

Nice pool. My room had the bedroom upstairs and the bathroom downstairs. The stairs was a little steep in design. I would've opted for a room that has the bathroom on the same level (it's a hassle to use it at night). There are cats and one slept on my extra bed, which I thought was cute, but just fyi for those with cat allergies. The room is not airconditioned but there were adequate fans. The area (Paredon) has a lot of bugs, definitely bring some bug spray. Friendly staff. Wifi was patchy, I had the room farthest from the lounge area but the wifi worked better at the lounge area. Easy walk to the beach. ##### Von Joseph Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller May 16, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovely Oasis We came during the hottest time of the year and Swell became our oasis! The swim up pool side room was spacious, clean, and the a/c was cold!!!!! I love the idea of the pretty open air bathrooms and rain showers (no hot water necessary) but it still is a hot sweaty sauna this time of year and I prefer my morning ‘business meeting’ a little cooler. Food is great, fresh, delicious coffee every morning. I love that you can help yourself all day to drinks from the cooler. Daily room cleaning. We barely left the comfort of the beautiful hotel. Too hot to go to the beach until sunset. No need to go anywhere else. Be aware you must pay in cash here. For your stay and everything or they will charge 7% for using a card. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/62BFA720B6696A48EAD90EF37BAFCED1137ECB121684272394945.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6D2D8E310AD3DC62C31A63D29B4EDB6B88C1ADB91684272391411.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/60FF43A32B8B2449F770FCB315DEDA1ED63C65621684272396763.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/15C2804B589375F15F8B8189A95555A5435D062F1684272391210.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in May 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels near Lincoln Financial Field](https://www.expedia.ca/Lincoln-Financial-Field-Hotels.0-l502305-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Playa La Ropa](https://www.expedia.ca/Playa-La-Ropa-Zihuatanejo-Hotels.0-n643566201039912960-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Beach Hotel in Gulf Coast](https://www.expedia.ca/Gulf-Coast-Hotels-Beach-Hotel.0-0-d6209919-tBeachHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Lihue](https://www.expedia.ca/Lihue-Hotels.d2074.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Beach Hotel in Siesta Key](https://www.expedia.ca/Siesta-Key-Hotels-Beach-Hotel.0-0-d6881-tBeachHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Courtyard by Marriott New York Manhattan / Central Park](https://www.expedia.ca/New-York-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-New-York-Manhattan-Central-Park.h7017732.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with a Pool in Lacombe](https://www.expedia.ca/Lacombe-Hotels-Hotel-With-Pool.0-0-d6240001-tHotelwithPool.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Family Hotels in Mexico](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Mexico-Family-Hotel.0-0-d117-tFamilyHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) ### Flights > [Flights from Goffs (YHZ) to Faaa (PPT)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yhz/ppt/halifax-to-papeete) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Le Lamentin (FDF)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/fdf/vancouver-to-fort-de-france) > > [Flights from Abbotsford (YXX) to Kelowna (YLW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yxx/ylw/abbotsford-to-kelowna) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Guadalajara (GDL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/gdl/toronto-to-guadalajara) > > [Flights from Bellingham (BLI) to Phoenix (AZA)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/bli/aza/bellingham-to-mesa) > > [Flights from Montreal (YUL) to Christchurch (CHC)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yul/chc/montreal-to-christchurch) > > [Flights from Dieppe (YQM) to Cancun (CUN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yqm/cun/moncton-to-cancun) > > [Turkish Airlines Toronto (YYZ) to Istanbul (IST) flights](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flight-routes/turkish-airlines-from-pearson-intl-to-istanbul/tk/yyz/ist) > > [Flights from Fort Lauderdale (FLL) to Seawell (BGI)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/fll/bgi/fort-lauderdale-to-bridgetown) > > [Flights from Ottawa (YOW) to Sidney (YYJ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yow/yyj/ottawa-to-victoria) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Athens (ATH)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/ath/toronto-to-athens) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Crumlin (BFS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/bfs/vancouver-to-belfast) > > [Flights from Montreal (YUL) to Buffalo (BUF)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yul/buf/montreal-to-buffalo) > > [Flights from Hanoi (HAN) to Chek Lap Kok (HKG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/han/hkg/hanoi-to-hong-kong) ### Cars > [Car rentals in Chile](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Chile.d36.Car-Rental-Destinations) ### Activities > [Things to do in Cerritos](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Cerritos.d6349687.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Hawaii](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations/213/Hawaii) > > [Gateway Arch](https://www.expedia.ca/Gateway-Arch-Downtown-St-Louis.d502855.Vacation-Attraction) ### General > [Visit Brussels](https://www.expedia.ca/Brussels.dx178241)
