Describing Villa El Faro as a hostel is difficult, as it much more like a home away from home. In a beautiful location, with great views and no road noise or people noise, we had an amazing week staying with Mariane and Olly. Mariane and Olly were extremely hospitable and made our stay extremely comfortable. The dorm room is spacious,... More

This time returned with larger group of family and friends. Same relaxed and friendly service, extended facilities ( inc. resident musician, ZenDen, impromptu Plancha evenings), wide range of sociable guests, great breakfast, close to good beaches and lovely old town of Peniscola. A great place for short break or longer holiday. Would love to return in Winter months to fully... More

The hostel is like no other hostel I´ve ever been to and am so grateful for... More

Amenities are good, I particularly enjoyed the table tennis and... More

I stayed here with a friend in the dorms for 4 nights and we wished we could have stayed longer. The hostel is beautiful with a garden equipped with hammocks, fountain and amazing views. Fresh baked bread with breakfast every morning (included). Pool, roof top terraces, and hot tub. A short(ish) walk to town but it is right on the... More
