“Would highly recommend”
Booked 2 nights originally and ended up staying for a whole week! Loved this place, room was clean and comfortable, with AC and hot water. Location is quiet and surroundings beautiful. It is outside of the main town but they run a shuttle for $2 per person multiple times throughout the day. Has a jungle gym and swimming pool and restaurant. Staff were great. Would highly recommend

The breakfast included was so delicious. A big serving a eggs, rice and beans, cheese, salsa. Compared to other hostels, its been the best breakfast hands down. The complimentary morning yoga was such a treat. I love the outdoor jungle gym. The beds were comfy and had curtains and lockers for privacy. There is also air conditioning if you enjoy a cooler room. Free shuttles into town throughout the day.

“Beautiful, cozy stay”
The space itself is very beautiful, I loved staying here. It was clean. Staff was really kind. Make sure you get back to the oasis before they close the gates. We came back after Sunday Funday at like almost 1 am and had to hop the fence to get back in as it was locked up. Food was yummy. I liked that it had a pool table, movie night, beer pong night, bar, drinks and food stuff to do once you came back from your adventures. Oh and yoga at 9:00 am each morning. 10/10 highly recommend!!!

“Jungle hideaway away from main attractions”
It is quite nice looking but there is no where to lay in the sun. The rooms were a bit cramped and the lockers were somewhat broken. The door was really creaky and the hot water didn’t work. There was no yoga the two days I was there which was a shame and I guess the shuttle was under repair so they arranged taxis for us for the same price. In the coworking the WiFi dropped a couple times during my video calls… overall it’s nice if you and looking to relax and not be so connected to the main town.

“Very good potential but didn’t fully fulfilled it”
The pool area is nice, the cleaning ladies were very helpful and extra service oriented! The co working area was nice and free of use for guest - only thing I would do different would be dedicated phone boxes wich are sound proof. The breakfast was good but a huge problem was that the reception didn’t told us that the breakfast was included so we only had breakfast on the day we left - we found out by another guest who told us.

“Comfortable stay, easy to reach beautiful beaches with a moped in no time.”
Most of the stuff is super polite and happy to help you with anything. The location is right by the Main Street so maybe there can me noise from construction site however we were lucky to be around Christmas time while there was no work ongoing. The premises are clean and the food is super nice ☺️

“Good potential, but not worth the price”
The hostel looks nice and has a cozy common area and a good pool. The food was good and the staff were friendly and helpful. The place definitely has potential.

The facilities are great. This is a lovely place to stay for one or maximum two nights. Perfect for digital nomads or couples. You can see monkeys and wild horses while staying here.
