OIA Beach Hostel - El Nido

14-8-2025 Pros: ------- The management team were good Especially the volunteer French guy Good sea view The bed was ok Cold AC room Free kitchen (stove, microwave) Free water dispenser

14-8-2025 I give 2 stars It was NOT a good experience for me I don't recommend it! To be honest I didn't feel I'm in a hostel, I felt more that I'm in a low income shelter! Not a good vibe! Nah it's not my place! Cons: ------- The location is far from the lively area in town Clothes were hanged on the outside wall A few guests (2 guests only) the others are volunteers ( total guests and volunteers around 20 ) The Facility is not well token care of Facility is 2 / 5 A few dogs are living in there A construction materials stored in the property Tow girls form the guest had attitude (not friendly) No amerberls no rain caution The billiard table is old and stick is with no head

The views and the people where amazing, had a great time there, will be back L)

Nice view and terrace for the sunset, they have a bar a small menu available.

Room didn’t have much space to put your stuff there was just a narrow hallway for people to get in their bunk beds. A bit overpriced compared to other hostels located closer to everything.

Staff were chill

Good enough for 1-2 nights. Very well located, right at the beach in a nice and quiet neighborhood but in walking distance from the center. Nice staff and the common area is cool.

The locker was broken and the mattress was pretty bad. Overall too pricey, over 20.- usd for a 8-bed dorm is way too much.

Toilet and showers are clean

The room is TOO small for that many people And it’s TOO expensive for the quality

fun vibes, great mango rum, clean, more rustic and outdoorsy but really nice. spacious outdoor bathrooms. Lot of chill out spots. Great location. Right off the beach! Really great food at their restaurant especially their noodles.

rooms are a bit small and a hassle if you get the top bunk but great value for your money!
