    Gorgeous, secluded location in the forest next to the river, you can easily walk to the Poza Encantada or the beach. At night the only sound is birds and the crickets. Really nice staff. There is a great common area with pool table and a platform...

    Honestly one of the nicest hostels I have ever stayed in! Everything was immaculately clean, the host was so lovely and the staff helpful. Such sweet animals too. Next to the river, a short walk to Poza Encantada, the beach and a 10 minute driver...

    Encanto Hostel is a vibe. Excellent music and bar area with pool table and ping pong. Good food. Beautiful river nearby and walking distance to a nice beach. The owner is also a great guy for an interesting chat. Highly recommend.
