Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Stunning home located on a quiet, private beach of El Coco, tranquil environment, very relaxing listening to the waves break on shore. The king room was beautiful, lots of room, lovely ensuite with lots of space. Air conditioning worked well. Pool on the property was also very nice. Dinner was cooked perfectly. Access available to the bar for cold beer/pop.

    It is a stunning retreat surrounded by nature. The communal areas are lovely. Everyone is encouraged to eat together so that’s helpful as a solo traveller. It’s vegetarian food and no alcohol. There are yoga sessions and a pool. Sublime

    Absolutely beautiful place to stay for a few nights, luxe traveller vibes, everything was just spot on from the design of the place, the music playing, the atmosphere, the water available and great food and reasonably priced for quality. Unlimited coffee at breakfast. We spent a whole day here just chilling and it was bliss. Sunday Funday came here so we got to join in without doing the whole day! The yoga class was amazing and in such beautiful location. Shuttles into town available during the day.
