Avoid the Playa Blanca at all costs! I was approached by aggressive sellers on the beach, they walked with me to the terrace of this hostel and there they robbed me 320K pesos/70€/80$. The hostel workers wouldn’t do anything about it. Just avoid the beach!

Carlos is just the best and we loved our stay with him and his dogs and would return anytime. He's also a great chef and Spanish-teacher who makes you feel very well taken care of during your stay.

nice but no frills!

listen if you want a no-frills chilled double room on the beach for a very cheap price this is the place but don’t expect anything fancy… at all. the owner/security guard is really nice and may well be the best thing about the property. but it’s in a great location right on the beach and personally I just needed a place to get away and be by myself so it was fine…

Very friendly and attentive staff. They organize everything you need. The hostel is an outdoor eco accommodation with cabins. Open air reception, bar, kitchen wich is very charming. Lots of hammocks around to relax. Good wifi at the reception as well as a charging station. The food was good and the price decent. Just a few minutes walk from playa Libre. Great place to absolutely relax and escape from the busy world

Carlos is simply the best. He takes care of everything and makes sure his guest feel great! Simple accommodation with a balcony just 5 steps in front of the Sea to jump in. The hammock was amazing to chill in. The tour in the evening to watch Plancton was magical! Great place to spend a night or two.

Host was super chill, let us use snorkels and sorted us out with a ferry to isla grande (took a sneaky 20,000COP cut though). Quiet end of beach. Clean rooms.

Great place to stay

The location on the beach is great, it’s much calmer and the water is beautiful - also a great part for snorkelling. Carlos helped us with everything we needed and was generally really nice. Falling asleep to the sounds of the waves was just beautiful!

Chance to be a great place, after maintainance, and renewing.

Perfect location, right at the beach, sea is under your feet. Not exactly in the center of Playa Blanca, but it's a great advantage, because of more silence and less tourist boats. But everythig is just steps from your room. Carlos the staff is helpful, and always there is you need anything. The view from the teracce is just perfect.

No camisa,, No Zapatos,, No problemos.

The fan worked good. The bed was super comfortable had amazing sleeps listening to the ocean. Smokes a lot of weed and ate delicious fresh fruit and smoothies. Went spearfishing fishing and got octopus.. My skin turned a nice Brown color lounging around on the nice sun beds and listening to my audio book. They sell coconut oil on the beach

One of the best experiences of my life

My dream was to fall asleep and wake up hearing the waves one day. l fullfilled this dream and am very grateful for it. For me Playa Tortuga cabanas were perfect. Carlos works hard and is helpful. l am looking forward to coming back next year. l loved the fact you did not even need tge flip-flops for few days.

Great stay, location and host. Highly recommend for a quiet beachfront getaway!

The property was a prime location on the quiet end of the beachfront. Our host Carlos was very kind and helpful.

Relaxing

The place is very authentic and host Carlos is very helpful, beach is amazing. The room is like a cabin, with mosquito nets, and fan. Showers and toilet is shared and separated from the room. Electricity is limited from 6pm to 7am only. View is amazing and very peaceful. Good money/value.
