Safest,most beautiful beach, well kept beach front home for relaxing/ocean sport

"A perfect strip of clean, swimmable sea and deep-golden sand, it is still in pre-hotel mode" as written by The Guardian news paper about Maculis beach.

We have named our beach house and your perfect vacation spot Oasis because it is our “island” of tranquility, peace, solitude, and beauty.
The beach, Maculis, where the house is located is 1-mile-long expanse of volcanic sand with a natural breakwater of volcanic rock 500 yards out in the Pacific Ocean. This breakwater makes for one of the safest and calmest beaches around. With no rip tides, only small waves, and with the warm water, it is as if you were in a gigantic hot tub. When the tide is out, there are tide pools at both ends of the beach that are great places to snorkel (we provide masks and snorkels) and look at the colorful fish and fauna. If you are into more active sports, there are sit-on-top ocean kayaks to take out and paddle along the coast. If you are really adventurous, you can paddle to the beach at the far end of Maculis, Playas Blancas, and surf the waves in a kayak. If you bring your surfboard, a number of surfing beaches are close by.
If you like to fish, you can do so right off the rocks or rent a skiff (panga) with a guide and go angling for red snapper, grouper, or mahi-mahi
If you are interested in getting away from crowded beaches and tourist traps, then Maculis is the place you are looking for. You will find very few people on the beach and very little activity except for the artesian fishermen coming in early at the far end of the beach in their pangas with the catch of the day. You can buy your lunch directly from them. Red snapper, filet of sole, grouper, and lobster are just some of the catch that may be available.
The house is what is called a rancho in Spanish. It is a modern 2-story structure with 2 bedrooms and a complete bathroom upstairs. The upstairs master bedroom has a balcony with ocean views and is a great place to have breakfast or drink wine and watch the sunset. The other upstairs bedroom sleeps 4 people.
On the ground floor is another bedroom that sleeps 4 and looks out on the ocean. It comes with a complete bathroom. The rancho also has a kitchen with a serving counter looking onto an open-air social area – a large expanse under a thatched roof made of palm fronds and renewable teak saplings. This is a great area to eat, drink, play games, or simply listen to the waves. Hammocks can be strung between the teak pillars for comfortable reading, satisfying naps, and relaxing sessions on your wireless devices. There is wireless 3g Internet connection. It’s slow, but you can receive and send emails. With patience, you can also surf the web.
The house sits on almost half an acre of beach-front property. There is a house for the caretaker and his family in the back part of the property, completely separate from the main house. The property has over 80 coconut trees, and the ground is mostly covered with grass. There is a sandy area coming off the beach where kids can play inside the property.
The caretaker and his wife are on call 24 hours. They will make your beds, clean the bathrooms, clean the social area, and wash dishes. They can get you fresh coconut water from the many coconuts, find you fresh fish, and run errands. They are very friendly and helpful people who are there to serve you. They can also cook you simple meals. They aren’t Cordon Bleu chefs by any stretch of the imagination, but they can rustle up tasty local dishes.
If you want to get out and visit a coffee plantation, volcano or just go sightseeing we can help you arrange the trips with a car and English speaking guide.
It is only 1 hour and 45 minutes from the El Salvador international airport is your and our “Oasis.” We can help you get transportation if you need it.
We are confident you will enjoy our Oasis as much as we do. Please contact us if you have questions or comments.

Amazing!
El Oasis is perfect! The house is right on a beautiful beach, the yards were very well maintained and the home was very comfortable. Our family travels quite a bit and has stayed at a lot of rental houses. El Oasis is one of our favorites. The hosts Marina and Tonia were amazing! They are by far our favorite hosts ever! They made us feel at home and were so helpful with anything that we needed. They cooked dinner for us several nights and the food was amazing. They are amazing people and it was very hard to say goodbye to them and El oasis. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Amazing Property - Exceeded Expectations
During our stay in El Salvador we stayed in 4 separate properties, this one was the very best. The property was exactly as described. The owner had excellent communication and was extremely accommodating with some special requests. The property host and her daughter were amazing. They prepared numerous meals and upkept the property throughout our stay. They were both very helpful when we explored the area, though we really enjoyed just staying at the property. The beach was not busy at all, often we were the only people out. The area is very quiet, not in a busy area, but close enough to nearby towns to explore/eat out etc. Out of the 4 properties we stayed at, we slept the best at this one. The bedrooms have AC and nice bathrooms. The beds and pillows were so very comfortable. I cannot say enough positive things about this property. Hoping to return soon! Thank you Phil, Marina & Tanya!

Great Place and Great People
We arrived late at night to the property and needed some help finding it and Marina was on the phone to help us and open the gate. The property is so cleanly and is very beautiful with great views. Marina was so lovely cooking for us and showing us around town. Highly recommend!!!

Great place beautiful private beach.
Our family love this place, Carmen and her daughter excellent care takers, we bought food and they cooked for us and we love everything they made. The location is far but worth the drive, secluded and comfortable specially if you want to be off the grid. WiFi very spotty, I really want to disconnect no TV no WiFi.

Beautiful retreat
For our family to get away spend some time with each other relax and enjoy the beauty that is the coast of El Salvador. Marina and Tania were wonderful keeping the house clean and cooking for us. We sent them to go get some groceries such as fish because we were not really prepared for bringing so much of what we should eat. I was told there was going to be spices and there really was only salt. I assumed that we could walk and go get fresh fish ourselves but that was not an option. But it all worked out in the end. If I was to come back to this place again I would definitely come well supplied but not just miscellaneous chips cereal grains but basically everything you would need in your own kitchen to cook the food you want. The little market that’s not too far by had some things that we needed such a simple spices. We also have been picked up some Popsicles. The sunsets were unmatched and the walks along the beach were entertaining and relaxing. Our eight-year-old granddaughter liked Playing in the surf. The house itself was a great layout for a group. We are all very happy with our stay with recommend it highly to anyone

Awesome Place
My family and I spent four days at this beautiful place. The home was very well kept, clean, and had everything we needed for our stay. We had a great time at the beach and enjoyed the beautiful sunsets - it was just perfect! The caretakers, Marina and Tania were very helpful. They were always willing to go above and beyond to make our stay more enjoyable. I will definitely stay here when I go back to El Salvador and back to Oriente.

This is a beautiful place to relax and spend quality time with family in a private setting. The host was extremely attentive from the beginning, and the caretaker, Marina, went above and beyond to accommodate all our needs. I highly recommend this place and we will definitely rebook if available on our next trip to El Salvador. Thank you Phil, for all you did🙏😊, we loved your place!

Awesome oasis
A bit off the beaten path but well worth it. Extremely helpful and kind staff, Marina and Tonya accepted us like family. Antonio our driver was exceptional, he was knowledgeable about the area, took us to get our covid PCR test before returning and even helped fill out the papers, then picked them up when done. the property is beautiful and well maintained. We couldn't have asked for anything more, had a great experience.
