Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Idyllic stay in this lodge surrounded by the jungle. Great location (10min walk to the beach), very friendly staff, zen and chilling atmosphere. I particularly enjoyed the open kitchen area and the terrasse view.

    Peaceful atmosphere, great location makes you feel living in the jungle between all those palm tress and bamboo houses, walking distance to the closest beach, lovely people. Big thanks for Chris and his family making us feel like at home, Igor for being best guide and Willy for unbelievable food!

    El Valle is a really cool and remote place with jungle feeling. I also really liked the Ganesh Hostel, although you need to adapt your expectations to what you really get. The staff is quite nice and tried to help with most of your issues. Everything is really (!) laid-back and simple.
