I really loved this hostel. It’s about a mile from the main part of jaco, which I enjoyed as it was a little quieter. They have bikes you can borrow to go downtown but also walking distance. The kitchen area was stellar!! Super clean and organized, was so refreshing compared to other hostel kitchens. Cute dog <3 Garden in the back was so lovely. And bonus points from me for the outside shower option! Lovely hosts who spoke very good English. Breakfast and coffee was yummy and super filling. Overall loved

The breakfast is served just for one hour at the morning so I never had the chance to try. The stream of the water is great and also the AC is good . Feel safe .

All hostels in Jacó

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.

Everyone at the hostel was incredible - the owner, Brian, as well as the friendly volunteers and staff. There were great food promos each day, generous happy hour times and prices, and the AC at night was an absolute lifesaver. I felt extremely safe at this hostel as both a young woman and a foreigner, and my friends and I were very sad to leave. A couple of us are even considering going back to work there!!
