My boyfriend and I stayed here for just under a week earlier this month. The rooms were clean, basic, but had everything you needed - clean sheets, AC, hot and cold water. Loved the openness of the main hangout/lobby. Beautiful artwork, colorful people, good staff. Carla and Marcus were really good to us!!!! We didn't want to leave. And if... More

I can't speak too badly about this place, I did enjoy my time, but I had a couple of experiences that left me with kind of a crappy taste in my mouth. So, first the positives: Carla was very warm and welcoming when we got there. Went out of her way to help us out. The vibe and atmosphere there... More

We stayed for almost a week at Tucan and enjoyed it a lot. The place is really nice to chill and read in one of the hammocks - or watch a free movie at night. The staff is great, all very helpful and friendly - you can feel, they really like their job. We stayed in a double room with... More

was a great spot to meet people if you are traveling alone, a super cool vibe inspired by the owners, a couple of expats that live on site. it has super quiet and decent dorm rooms, and a very communal vibe out in the courtyard that lends itself to interaction with new people. the bar/restaurant is well priced, but not...

When our group of 17 teenagers and their chaperones saw this place, they literally gasped with delight. The rooms are arranged on either side of an interior space covered on top and open on the ends. The “roof” also had skylights so the whole space is light and open feeling. Under this canopy there are hammocks, seating areas with couches,... More

We stayed in a double room with private bath for two nights during the rainy season. Positives: The people who run this hostel are lovely and helpful regarding nearby beaches/places to eat. The overall vibe of the place is fun; we loved the hammocks strung up all over the place. Cons: The air conditioning didn't work and the window didn't... More

I stayed here for a few nights in june with a large-ish group of backpakers and right from the beginning we received outstanding service. The owners are the most hospitable, friendly people I have met. They drove us to the beach, recommended things to do and were generally lovely. One day we went to a beautiful waterfall several klm away,... More
