If you are trying to experience the cultural experience of El Salvador this is not the place. This is more of a night life and surfing enthusiastic individual. Also, food is very expensive compared to USA prices.

I love the decor around the property very modern chic. Tropical vibes the food was priced reasonably. It drive is kinda long and you pass 5 tunnels that was scary. It worth the drive it beautiful. The staff is amazing!

If you are thinking of booking this place, Do it! It was everything and more! The staff was super friendly they even checked on us to confirm our arrival. Finding the place was a bit tricky but it was because we arrived really late and it was dark. A bit far from the airport but a lot closer to the night life and yummy restaurants. Our stay had breakfast included and a beautiful horseback ride on the beach. The food was delicious and the views were stunning. My fiancé and I will be staying here on our next visit.

Our stay at this property was wonderful, the staff was friendly and you get a wonderful view of the ocean. The food and drink options are amazing at the nearby restaurant. However, during our stay the power went off one night for a few hours, there was no number to call (I texted the Whatsapp number and didn't get a reply until the next morning) and we didn't have anyone come check on us. We wish they would have, so that we could have asked for some candles to lit up the rooms. Other than that small inconvenience, we enjoyed our two night stay with them. If God permits, we will return again.

DO NOT GO!!! This company robbed me from my money.  They did not want to give me a refund after I provided them with 4 weeks notice that I won’t be able to go.  It clearly said on the US Government website to reconsider travel to El Salvador due to high criminal activity and I provided them the website gave them 4 weeks notice before my departure and they still refused to give me my money back.  You have to pay upfront instead of a deposit.  Don’t go avoid at all costs!!!

DON’T GO AVOID AT ALL COSTS

I've been to anti-resort 4x now in the past 2 years and I can say it is my favorite place to visit when I am in El Salvador. It feels like home and the whole staff feels like family! After visiting for the first time in 2021 I knew I had to host a retreat there. So far I have successfully hosted 2 surf and yoga retreats here!  I teach yoga online and internationally and Mizata is a special and stunning place to enjoy for myself and to bring guests. The views, the rooms, the hospitality and the fact that it is very remote. You feel truly connected with nature and are able to disconnect from life. I trust the staff wholeheartedly and know that myself and my retreat guests will always be taken care of here.

 I also wanted to note that the retreat process through antiresort has been a pleasure. Every thing I need is attended to and my guests feel extra special ALWAYS! I usually work with Shon or Pia and they are both very kind and helpful. For my most recent retreat I worked with Taty and she helped me make the process even more seamless. She became friends with everyone on our retreat, was extremely professional and made sure we always had what we needed.The front desk staff especially Daniel make every day wonderful and the kitchen staff are truly the most kind.

I can't say enough wonderful things about it here; truly a dream destination. Favorite things to note, the yoga shala which is stunning and I've never practiced in anything like it. The FOOOOD; oh my gosh breakfasts (banana oat pancakes are fantastic, the mahi mahi..basically everything on the menu is great). THE PEOPLE; this is #1!! I have lifelong friends from antiresort. 10/10 for visiting and also for hosting retreats. I'll be back each year for sure.

FAVORITE Place for visiting and hosting retreats!

My boyfriend and I had the best vacation ever at Mizata! We stayed in one of the treehouses, it was clean, comfortable and felt like we were immersed in nature. The views from the balcony were incredible. We enjoyed room service while watching the waves each morning - the food and drinks from Nawi were top notch. I surf at a very beginner level so I did not surf on this trip, but my boyfriend (who is a very strong surfer) had some of the best surf sessions of his life at Mizata! We also hiked the Santa Ana Volcano, which I would highly recommend checking out. Looking at the blue crater lake at the top of the volcano while enjoying some chocolate-covered bananas made for a great memory! The staff helped us coordinate transportation to and from the airport, the volcano hike, surfing at Sunzal, and to El Tunco for some souvenir shopping. Both the hotel and restaurant staff went above and beyond for us and we are so grateful to have found this place! We will absolutely return to Mizata.

Treehouse views, surfing, volcano hikes, and amazing food! 

I cannot say enough AMAZING things about Mizata. I assure you the experience here exceeds my ability to describe it, but I'm gonna give it a shot.
I used the chat box on the website to initiate communication and within minutes was speaking directly to Dianna to book our vacation. My girlfriend and I were delighted with her knowledge and guidance. She made the booking process simple and provided great recommendations along the way. We booked the surfers package for me and added a non-surfer with a meal plan for my girlfriend. We chose a treehouse for our week-long stay.
Upon arrival, we immediately noticed The SanSalvador airport is brand new, efficient, and impressive. While in El Salvador, communication with the hotel was made simple through WhatsApp. They guided us right to our driver who was waiting for us at the airport. After a comfy hour and a half ride and we arrived at Mizata.
It was love at first site. The grounds were inviting and the front desk personnel was informative and personable. We arrived early in the day so our room was understandably not ready. They put our luggage securely away and gave us a tour of the property. The vibe throughout the entire place is uplifting, to say the least. Seconds into the tour I was staring at the most amazing right-hand point break I had ever seen in real life. More on that later in the review. We were shown around all the stunning guest areas and then head over to Nawi Beach House. Nawi is the restaurant, bar, and one of the many pools on the property. Also home to a cool outdoor gym, private beach cabanas, and horseback riding. Great music keeps the energy level up and I cannot say enough about the food. There was not a bad item on the very extensive organic menu.
The treehouse itself was straight out of a fairytale. The woodwork is dreamy and mixed with concrete accents creating a very in-touch-with-nature feel(but with AC and sliding glass doors). A small closet and stocked mini fridge came in handy. The private outdoor shower with hot water was amazing. And then there was the view. You can see the waves from the balcony, from the bed, from the sink, and even while taking a shower.
For the surfers:
The Quiver of Lost surfboards is the best I have ever seen in a rental fleet. Most of them are in good shape. That being said, I would bring a favorite go-to board just in case they don't have your personal taste or the board you want happens to be spoken for.
The main Mizata right-hand point break was crazy fun. Most of the week was just overhead high and like a machine. It does get dangerous if it gets larger as the wave ends near some large cliffs. The great news is that when the swell was too large for Mizata they have vans to take you to other breaks. The local surf instructor, Erick, was amazing and always gave great pointers on where and when to surf. He was also full of great vibes and super fun to watch the surf.
There is an A-Frame type break right in front of Nawi that works mid to high tide. I had some super fun left and right-hand sessions there. The beach break is a short walk to the West and there is even a slab right-hander at the far end of the beach for the experienced surfers on the right swell.
All in all the vibe in the water was great and even with small crowds, there were plenty of waves to be ridden by all. I recommend a treehouse as I was able to watch the waves easily and head out for quite a few solo surf sessions when the wind would drop.
For the non-surfers:
The place has enough on-property to keep you happy but there are plenty of excursions to ponder. The massages were great and we also booked a volcano hike that I cannot recommend enough. This is a mild hike with very rewarding views at the top. We also went to El Tunco "Surf City" for a day which had great shopping, surf shops, food, and souvenirs.
An unquestionable 5-star experience by Mizata. We are already discussing our visit back...

A true example of excellent hospitality and good vibes!

Mizata is the perfect place to heal, rest, connect and restore!! I spent two weeks here hosting a women’s retreat and felt like I was home. The staff are friendly and helpful- always going the extra mile to accommodate needs. The rooms and resort grounds are beautiful and clean! I’ll be sure to come back to visit.
