Located in El Nido and with Caalan Beach reachable within a few steps, OIA Beach Hostel - El Nido provides a garden, non-smoking rooms, free WiFi throughout the property and a bar.

At the hostel, each room comes with a shared bathroom with a bidet. Absolutely loved OIA—I even extended my stay just to slow down, relax, and soak it all in. The volunteers were super friendly and kept arranging fun hostel outings and activities that made it effortless to meet other travelers and feel at home right away. The hammocks look straight out over the water, and being steps from the beach meant an easy, peaceful swim any time of day. Kayaks are available to paddle to nearby islands, which was a memorable little adventure between chill sessions. The music—played by the local volunteers and on most of the time—set a calm, laid‑back vibe that made the whole place feel incredibly soothing. The food was tasty and fairly priced, so eating in never felt expensive and the portions hit the spot. Overall, OIA is that rare mix of community, comfort, and breathtaking views that makes leaving hard—highly recommend.
