Secluded Minca stay with views but still close to the town

The accommodation was fabulous, with incredible views and secluded feeling. However, it was a very short work to the main town.

Super relaxing rustic hideaway

The room afforded a ton of privacy at an unbeatable price. I loved being able to cook my own food in the kitchen area . There was a beautiful view of the forest and the WiFi was solid. The staff was súper friendly and my room was quickly cleaned whenever i asked. They made me feel more like a friend than a customer and it was all very relaxing and a very happy time.

I stayed for 5 nights and had a wonderful stay. The bed is super comfy, the bathroom is huge with great water pressure, and the private balcony is so peaceful and lets fresh air into the room with mosquito net or can be completely closed. There are also fans that work great. Regarding the owner, Romaric, he obviously works hard on this property, and I found him to be super helpful, and one of his knowledgeable friends (the Irish man) helped me plan a hike because I was looking for something a bit longer and challenging. This place is literally ON a mountain side, IN lush greenery, everything is natural/made with wood or fibre, and the price is so reasonable... what more can people ask for?

The staff of the hostel was really friendly to us and the vibes were great. The rooms were clean and the pool was a wonderful respite after long days of hiking. The location is super near the town center, but still a little on the side and on a slight hill (not very high), which makes it super nice. Really tasty breakfast place and a laundry just behind the corner. Obviously there would be some insects coming in, as in every hostel located near jungle-like nature, but nowhere near what some reviews of the place indicated.

Relaxed and beautiful place.

Our stay in colibrí hostel was amazing, our bedroom had a terrace with an incredible view to nature and was so comfortable, the host sorted out every inconvenience we had (toilet paper or new towels) and made us feel so welcome and relaxed. We are absolutely coming back. The pool is a plus.

We only stayed here one night. A nice double room with private bathroom for a great price. Up a hill but not too bad a walk. We really liked it

Location right in the centre, and despite the little walk uphill so it seems a bit remote from the noise, it was quite n

Friendly and welcoming staff, nice common areas with hammocks and pool.

You get for what you pay

The accommodation was super cheap and the location was great. The private rooms are fine but there’s no AC and the mosquitos can still get in (no mosquito net) .

Nice accommodation located up in the hills

We had a private room and bathroom, there wasn't much of a view from our room but it was absolutely fine for a couple of days. There was a nice chill out area on the top floor, which you couldn't quite see the sunset from as there are trees in the way but still very lovely. There is a separate shelter a little further up from the main building with a kitchen with fridge/freezer and even filtered water which was really helpful, plus a seating area to admire the view, again you can't fully see the sunset but still see the sky turn some pretty amazing colours. The pool is nice, again no view but still nice to have, there were a lot of local kids occupying the pool whilst we were there so didn't provide for a relaxing experience. The shower did stop working at one point whilst we were there but the staff were really helpful and sorted this out for us right away. The property is located up a bit of a hill but it isn't too taxing to get there. The sign for the property is a little hidden but you basically take the first left as you walk up a dirt track. There is also the best cafe/breakfast place at the bottom of the hill so happy days!
