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.

    This place is really beautiful! It’s supertrendy and has an very relaxing ambiance. It got style and great mix of a luxerious hotelroom and the vibe of a cozy hostel. Lot’s of spots to hang out and a lovely pool for some refreshment in the heat. Also the clean and super new private room with great bed were perfect for some rest after long surfsesh. The outdoor shower is the best! The breakfast was nice as well!

    The hostel staff is incredibly friendly, attentive, and always available to make your stay memorable. As a solo female traveler, I found this place safe and welcoming. The hostel's design is stunning, the dormitories are impeccable, and privacy is respected. Additionally, its ideal location just a 2-minute walk from the ocean and 5 minutes from the fantastic surf spot at Santana Beach makes it a perfect choice. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Nicaragua.

    Great location and the beds were very comfy. We paid extra to have air conditioning and it was nice and cold. The bathroom had good water pressure for our shower.

    I had such a great stay here I extended it another night. The cottage is beautifully done and you even have a kitchen, which had everything you needed, only shared with the neighbouring house. Everything was super clean and comfortable! Ben is an awesome host and was so helpful and showed us one of the best spots for dinner one night. Location, I think, is on the best part of the beach and right behind Amahula hostel who put on loads of lovely activities you can also join in on if you like :) I will be back here for sure!

    Incredible location, you can almost touch the water from the hostel, sounds of waves from the dorms is beautiful to sleep and wake up to. Nice big bar/area to hang out and meet people. Plenty of hammocks. Beds are nice and dorms/bathrooms are clean. Kitchen has most things you’ll need to cook.

    Oh lala Melting Elephante was clearly the best Hostel until i travel in centrale America This is about the place he is , the architecture, the sunset , the door of the room on the beach , AND the biggest part is because of Jamie and Dylan. They are making people feel like at home , they are always here whe you need something . It's clean and have equipment you need . We were supposed to stay 5days , and we spend 3weeks !
