“Very chill, cozy and relaxed atmosphere. Would recommend it for everyone who wants to connect with other people and join”
The location is great, there are small shops nearby as well as the best Italian restaurant in Nicaragua. The beach is 2 minutes away from the property. The staff and the owner are really nice. For me the volunteers really made the difference. When we were there, I had a good time with them. It’s a cozy atmosphere and you can connect easily with other guests. They also have a few weights if you want to train. If you want to cook for yourself you can use the kitchen.

“An endearing hostel by the beach”
- The hostel is situated a mere stroll from the beach - For those of a friendly disposition, there is a large communal space with easily purchasable beer and refreshments - the room was situated away from the clamour and revelry - Matteo, the bearded boss, exuded adequate bonhomie. All round - not too shabby.

“Beach place”
It has the vibe of a surf house. Good open patio to chill and they organize activities some nights. The owner was nice to organize a kayak excursion as well. Location is good. Mosquitos were not a problem which was great.

Excellent atmosphere, in the nice shared kitchen you can cook with people from all over the world! The common areas and dormitory mattresses are comfortable. The breakfasts are divine and in the quiet bar under the trees you can drink delicious cocktails.

“Chilled vibes on the beach :)”
People and local community were great - many of them come and hang out at the hostel because it's full of volunteers. Also has a surf school within the hostel which is great if you want to book some lessons!
