The hostel is located in a convenient place at Punta, which has a rural chill vibe. You can find every kind of people in this hostel, walking 5 minutes you can access to the Principal street where you can find restaurants and stores, and also access to the beach. Next to the hostel you can rent a scooter or a 4-wheeler to visit downtown Zicatela, where the clubs are and other famous beaches are 15mins driving.

I stayed just one night but really loved the vibe! It’s a super social hostel with activities every night and a great pool to relax during the day. Kudos to Estefania, who organizes the events — she was my roommate and gave me amazing tips around town! The staff is all really friendly and welcoming, and even if you only stay briefly, you still feel part of the place. Perfect spot to meet people in Puerto Escondido!

This hotel is actually a hostel and so caters to those in their 20’s activities are great if you’re 20ish … as an older man I wasn’t comfortable using the pool with all the young kids felt intruding .. but highly recommend it if your young and want a clean safe place to stay and meet others easily

The hostel and the rooms are nice. But this really is a party hostel, they play very loud music at the pool all day until late and at times I felt like my room was located inside a speaker.. So there's no chance for an early night, sleep late or take an afternoon nap.. :/

I strongly recommend this place to visit Playa Zicatela, their facilites are brand new, clean and confortable, Wi-Fi works everywhere, I personally stayed at a prívate room with AC, safe and blackout courtains, the staff is friendly and helpful, I would like to extend special thanks to Belén for her kindness.
