Hostel di Puerto Piramides

morag Inggris Raya

This spacious and airy hostel (with AC!) is in a very quiet beach village on Peninsula Valdes, a nature reserve on the Golfo Nuevo. Even outside the much more popular whale-watching season this area is so incredibly rich in wildlife, sea life and fossils that I stayed for three weeks instead of three days. If you're still a beginner in Castellano and Google Translate fails, there are several people in the village who are fluent in English and can translate further. The locals are very welcoming. I particularly recommend Serena de Mar, the cafe by the beach, for snacks and meals. There's no breakfast provided at the hostel, but the kitchen facilities are good, plenty of fresh ingredients to buy nearby, and we created some delicious collaborative home-made meals. The hostel staff are very friendly and helpful. I was very glad to have chosen to stay there and will return. Oh, and the hostel showers are great!
