About

Welcome to Casa de Colores — your peaceful home near the waves.

Just a short walk from El Zonte’s surf breaks, riverside paths, and beachfront restaurants, Casa de Colores is a cozy, colorful hostel where travelers come to relax, connect, and feel at home.

We’re known for our warm, family-like atmosphere. Our host goes above and beyond to welcome every guest—offering local tips, sharing meals, and making sure you have everything you need to feel comfortable. Guests often arrive solo and leave with new friends.

The communal areas are open, airy, and full of good vibes—perfect for reading in a hammock, cooking a shared meal, or getting some work done (our Wi-Fi is fast and reliable). We also host occasional events in collaboration with the local community, supporting nearby vendors, artists, and restaurants.

Whether you're here to surf, unwind, or connect with others, Casa de Colores offers a meaningful and memorable stay in one of El Salvador’s most magical spots.

Was a very nice hostel with good vibes. The place would benefit from another shower and toilet as there’s only two of each in the whole hostel. Lovely pool and lots of hammocks to chill in. El Zonte is definitely a quieter place than El Tunco if you are looking for that!
