Great location near a world-class point break. Close to El Tunco for convenience but far enough to avoid the busyness. Excellent English-speaking hosts with extensive local knowledge. Good WiFi and easy access to local food options. Walkable distance to the beach and mini markets.

Mind-blowing secret hideaway for relaxation and unwinding. Super quiet area with 4min walk to the beach. Downstairs dorm with large beds and private bathroom. Lovely owners and the friendliest dogs ever! Fans for every bed. Very close to tiny shops and local comedors. Breath-taking outdoor shower. Comfy beds, daily room cleaning. Friendly staff, lots of adorable dogs and cats. Safe and secure with strong lockers. Reasonable Wi-Fi and good kitchen. Large garden area with hammocks. Buses stop nearby. Quick walk to El Tunco for restaurants. Absolutely jaw-dropping experience!

This cozy little spot was just what we needed for our romantic escape. the hosts were super friendly and always ready to help. the Wi-Fi was reliable, perfect for staying connected. And the large garden area with hammocks was perfect for lounging and enjoying some downtime. Plus, the location was ideal, with buses stopping nearby and a short walk to the beach. We loved exploring the local food stands and catching the chicken buses to nearby towns.
While the hostel had its charm, it could use a bit of an upgrade. the lack of air conditioning made the dorm room quite hot, although they did provide fans.

The value for money at this place was excellent, with spacious and comfortable rooms. The location was perfect, with a quiet and relaxing atmosphere just steps away from the beach. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout my stay.
The only thing that could have made the morning meal better was a wider variety of options.
