Kamala Surf & Backpacker Hostel

Poder descansar escuchando las olas del mar y la piscina

Tiene mucho potencial todavía

Kamala siempre el mejor lugar para quedarse en ecuador. Ya volví 3 o 4x. Perfecto la atención, actividades, el bar y restaurante, la vista, todo.

A little piece of paradise right on the beach front. If you’re looking for a peaceful place close to Montanita, with wonderful people and great vibes, this is your place! Pablo and the volunteers made it feel like home away from home right from the start 💛 also, I highly recommend not booking any activities nearby in advance as Pablo will recommend much cheaper and better options for everything from surfing to whale watching. Thank you, Pablo, I hope I’ll come back one day soon 💛

The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. They deserve a lot of credit for their inclusive and kind nature. The pool looked nice, but I didn't have the chance to swim.

A lot of the things I read on Booking.com about the location were not present or possible due to the fact that I visited during the low season. I did not know as a foreigner that it was low season, but basically nothing was going on and food and most drinks were unavailable. The mosquito net in my cabin had holes in it, so when I woke up in the morning I had tons of mosquito bites all over my feet and legs. I was really surprised because it is the dry season. The place needs a lot of updating and refurbishing. Overall I just didn't feel comfortable, especially not for the price.

El espacio es muy limpio

A beautiful and relaxing place to stay. The location was just stunning, with access directly onto the beach. Although it’s a little bit out from the main town of Montañita, it’s so easy to get in either via a 2 minute taxi or very pleasant walk along the beach. It’s also a short walk to the town of Manglaralto which has anything you might need - nice/affordable local restaurants, grocery shops, markets, etc. Pablo was a great host, and even helped us gain our Open Water Diving Certificate while we were there!!

Nothing

Amazing beachfront location, super friendly hosts, big pool

There weren’t many people there so the bar wasn’t open, but the hosts let us know they could organise food and drinks if we messaged them.
