Paraíso Escondido Hotel Villas & Resort
Mizata
A small villa hotel that guests praise as a hidden find on the Mizata coast.
Mizata is a remote stretch of the Costa del Bálsamo, further west than El Zonte, where the beach is wide and dark, the surf is powerful and the village is quiet. Development has been slow, which is part of the draw: palm-backed beaches, river mouths and a few surf breaks.
Where to stay
The most prominent hotel is Mizata by Antiresort, designed around local materials and crafts, with rates from about US$137 a night in one guide. Casona Tunán is a relaxed boutique hotel with a pool near the beach, and a few other small hotels and villas offer simpler stays.
Good to know
The drive from San Salvador takes about two hours, with the final stretch on winding coastal roads. Food options are limited, so eat at your hotel or the village comedores. Swells are largest from April to October, with strong currents, so be careful when swimming.
