I always enjoy a stay at this hostel when I´m in Livingston- for me it is just a great place to chill out and party and there are always plenty of opportunities to do both! Great happy hour in the bar with 10Q drinks, great family style dinners and a very relaxed atmosphere- you can pretty much do whatever you... More

This has been my favourite hostel for about 4 years now. The staff, food and drinks are all excellent. Although things can get loud I wouldn't say it was excessive and things usually quieten down before too late. If you opt for a room they are as cool as you expect them to be but if you opt for a...

I was just passing through Livingston on my way to Belize but had such a good time at Casa De La Iguana that I postponed my departure about 3 times and ended up staying for 10 days! Upon arrival all of my questions were answered before I even asked them by way of the welcoming orientation talk. Unlike some other... More

Good luck. Screaming loud party's every night, drunks running the place and pushy staff that probably get punched more than once a month for being smart az's to customers. If this is the "only" Hostal in Livingston, skip the trip to Livingston or just pass through.

We stayed at casa iguana only two nights but it was really an awesome time. The staff is so friendly, really helpful and sincere in their efforts to make sure you have a good time. When we checked in the owner Rusty was really nice, sat down with us and explained everything you need to know about the hostel and... More

Well what can I say, I loved the place from the moment I walked in the door. The staff made me feel at home, even sitting down to a family meal with all the guests at dinnertime and sitting around drinking and hanging out with us in the evening. I'd definitely say they've got some colorful characters on staff, which... More

I stayed here 3 nights but would not recommend it. Two staff members were having loud sex in the dorm all night and the manager was drunk every day and night because the owner (rusty) went on holiday!!. He and a staff member got together and started running around naked!! It was so inappropriate and weird as everybody was sober... More

I am the owner back from holiday. Thank you for the free publicity. So while i was away from my party hostel people were having fun, you mentioned drunkeness, nudity, casual sex, and clean dorms. I guess it is the backpackers you don't tell your mum about. You could have mentioned the free WiFi and great food but otherwise great... More
