The staff were excellent especially Nahuel who was very helpful and spoke English which made things alot easier for me 😊 The location is great, right across from the beach and there is a lovely restaurant on the corner a few doors down to the left. The hostel booked a tour for me but unfortunately due to weather it was cancelled, this could not be avoided. They had a lot of information on trips. The accommodation was very comfortable and I had a great experience here. Breakfast was basic but very nice.

The best hostel I’ve stayed in all of South America!!! I originally planned to stay just a few days, but ended up staying for four weeks. Every morning, there’s a great breakfast and you have the opportunity to join free yoga. Every evening, the volunteers organize a fantastic program that changes every week. There are so many of backpackers from all over the world, and it’s easy to connect with them. The hostel is beautifully and spaciously set up. There’s a pool and many of places to relax. The only thing you should know is that there are a lot of mosquitoes so you need to use mosquito repellent every few hours. I highly recommend this hostel, and it’s the main reason I’ll be coming back to Pipa.

Super nice and professional hostel. It does have the backpacking vibe but in a more organised way. Everything is very clean and the staff are well mannered. There are no organised events but it’s easy to start chatting to people.

My husband and I stayed in the private room in the hostel for 2 days. The hostel is located in a safe area. There are many nice restaurants in the area. The air-conditioning in the private room works well.

Just had the BEST hostel experience at this hidden gem by the beach! The vibes and energy were amazing, and the owner was the friendliest person ever. Plus, it's just a few meters away from shopping, bars, restaurants, and bakeries. Not to mention, the place was spotless, beds were super comfy with AC, and the WiFi was on point. 10/10 would highly recommend to everyone!

Great location; amazing hostel staff - particularly Ivan who is always there to help, answer any questions or just talk. Very easy to meet other travellers because of the whatsapp group and generally great facilities for a hostel! Also very clean - the daily room cleans are a god-send given the amount of sand.

Owner is so friendly, he goes out of his way to make you comfortable. Has a great view and lots of hammocks and places to chill over 3 levels. Is close to praia 1 and 2 and the light house viewpoint which are the most popular spots. Also 10 minute walk to the ferry. Great location compared to other hostels

Everyone was so friendly, helpful and welcoming. The hosts Eric and Thomas reached out when we first booked to offer information about the different tours, and Valerie was super helpful with getting everything organised. We were also able to check in at 5am and leave our bags in storage after check out, which we appreciated. Delicious breakfast and great location also. Would absolutely recommend this hostel!
