"A quiet retreat from the buzz of Puerto Viejo"

10.0

I loved how social the hostel was. Everyone was friendly and accommodating, and people there quickly become friends. The owners were also extremely nice.

No AC would be my only complaint, but it's pretty comfortable with a fan.

The hostel is the perfect mix of comfort and outdoor lifestyle setting. Providing clean rooms with comfortable beds, while the outdoor kitchen and hangout areas make you feel one with nature. Super relaxing stay. The staff and owner were very welcoming and accomodating. Location was fantastic, we walked to both Puero Viejo and Punta Uva - we love walking. Otherwise, you could hire a bike, scooter or TukTuk if you prefer.. The beach is only down the road so easy to pop to the beach.

The water cooler is great.

The place is falling apart. Tap broke, bike rack broken, stairs dangerous. Dirty, the kitchen is swarming with flies. Staff all disinterested volunteers. The music next door is so loud, like being next to a club, kills any feeling of it being a “jungle hostel”

I had a wonderful stay with this lovely family. The place is cozy, beautifully located in a peaceful spot surrounded by the forest. It’s perfectly situated—close enough to everything, yet away from the main road, so it’s very quiet. It truly felt like a home away from home. Highly recommended!
