    Great location, very close to the beach. Pool area is nice. The restaurant is really great. We saw sloths, monkeys and iguanas right near our room which was amazing.

    The facility is nice and large. The pool is great to lay out by, there is free yoga available, and you can use the area to workout in as well. The kitchen is large and easy to make your own meals, but there's a bar there as well to order food and drinks. It's a social hostel on the weekend, there are dj's and a lot going on.

    Beautiful property right by Guiones Beach with lovely cafes and restaurants nearby. I stayed in the "group room" (most expensive hostel ever!) But it was a nice way to meet other people and feel like part of a community. The days revolve around surfing lessons, yoga and pool time. It's very bougie and not "real Costa Rica" but a nice way to experience a higher end hotel. Wonderful staff and good breakfast.

    Fair price for the area. Spaciousness and doesn’t feel cramped with so many people. Clean and comfy beds with great DIY breakfast! oats, fruit, eggs and bread which helps if travelling on a budget. Frederico is also extremely helpful and a great chilled guy who genuinely wants to help you. The dogs and cats also make this hostel cool.

    Great location, self checking was easy. The ‘public parking’ is on the road outside and we felt the car was safe leaving it there. We had a lot of gear including 2 surf boards so a little cramped inside. Good air conditioning which was needed. Rate for the room was fair.
