Hostel Vista Serena Reviews

I had a great stay here. I initially was only going to stay a couple of nights but ended up staying 5 as the staff were great in ensuring you had a great time and were always entertained. The staff really made this place for me, the dorms were clean and had good facilities, the porch/verandah area was great to chill and watch the sunset. They also had great food at cheap prices.

Wonderful hostel, bathrooms need to be updated but wonderful otherwise

Great place. Incredible view, clean beds, clean bathrooms, helpful staff, good food. What more do you need?

Great view, great location, great staff!

A perfect hostel to spend a few days at! The location is perfect as well as the view. Conrad the owner is a cool guy and the staff as really friendly. Dont miss out on this!

Really nice hostel, nice staff and willing to help. Had a good stay here.

Quite a nice and large hostel. Actually looks more like a hotel but lacks a bit of character. Fine for 1 night if you need to be near the airport. Also they were doing renovations while we were there.

The staff were amazingly helpful and friendly in giving me information for my stay in Costa Rica. Only down side was getting access to food in the morning and passports is sometimes not as early as needed for buses and tours. This place has so much charisma and a great vibe! Cant wait to get back there

The hostel was nice. Manuel Antonio was just a bit too busy for me. The staff were great! Leah was very helpfull in helping me and my friend find our way easily and acurately!

I have stayed at hostels in NYC, Chicago, Paris, Barcelona, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, and more. Hostel Vista Serena is by far the most outstanding hostel I have ever been to. The staff is outstanding as is the view the vibe and the location! I highly recommend that you visit this hostel if you are ever fortunate enough to have the opportunity! You won't be dissapointed!!

unbeatable location for sunset view,amaizing terrace to have breakfast or a beer. but very far from beach & town. good food and drinks there, A/C will be good. Shame that was packed from silly americans, that drink to much and take over the place shouting and being assholes :-S.

I really enjoyed my stay at Hostel Vista Serena! The staff were really helpful and even ran tours themselves, the hammocks were great, the vibe was chilled and the view over the Pacific was amazing! Would definitely stay there again and recommend this hostel to others.

Nice hostel to relax and enjoy the amazing view from the hammocks or couch. Not so much a party place but is great to mingle with other travellers. Best get the local bus to the beach as a fair walk but plenty of great resturants close by and i recommend the smaller ones for the cheaper food. The kitchen here could have a better variety of meals.

The staff was very helpful and friendly. Great vibe and environment all around!

What an amazing view from the community area. Dont need to leave the hostel for the sunset, right down the road from the park. one dollar bus ride rd trip!

Conrad was super helpful and friendly as well as the other staff members. The common area had some great hammocks to lounge on, and the location was perfect. The bathrooms left a little to be desired, but overall a good deal.

Allo:) Cette hostel est tout simplement MAGNIFIQUE!!! J\'ai jamais vu un aussi beau coucher de soleil :) Très proche de toutes les activités ( resto, bar, plage ) J\'ai adoré :D 10/10

Personally, I enjoyed the party atmosphere here, but it may not be for everyone. Note that the AC is only on at night.

Amazing view! Worth the distance from the beach!

Awesome owner, awesome people, awesome facilities, awesome food, therefore awesome place.
