I was a little lost when I arrived but it was located exactly where it should be. The staff was friendly and the environment was very stress free. Being a surfer I was very pleased to have a great ocean view and the accomodations for any surfer are excellent. The beds were extremely comfortable and the facilities were nice and clean. It was the first hostel I have been to so I can't compare it to another but I will definitely stay there again. Thanks Eduardo.

Very laid back hostel - it was sometimes hard to find a staff member. But still a good hostel, comfortable and secure. Cheap bike hire.

I had an amazing stay at Sunset Hostel, Eduardo and Fredi were amazing hosts! Eduardo went out of his way to make sure I had a perfect time in Pichilemu, took me surfing, showing the best spots to paddle out on sketchy days at Lobos, taking us on roadtrips up the coast to surf some more perfect left points, cooking delicious pizzas, watching football, and having beers! Thanks so much Eduardo! you guys made my stay in Pichi unforgettable!

The most amazing hostel. Fernanda Freddie and Luna are extremely friendly, warm and very comforting. Edwardo is the man, if you want to surf PichIlemu this is the man you need to see for teaching or wave selection or destination. The beds are the best beds I have slept on in a hostel and such a clean and fresh place. Such a great hostel and I can wait to go back!

When I was looking for a hostel, I wanted a quiet and charming place with nice people, a decent breakfast and someone who had the patience to teach me how to surf - and Sunset Hostel had all of that. The beds are very comfy, the staff is amazingly helpful and waking up by hearing the Pacific Ocean made me stay for a whole week instead of travelling back to Santiago after a couple of days. Absolutely worth the money and I think that when I come back one day I might also try their Jacuzzi...

Excellent hostel, great location and good value for the money you pay. It has the best bed I´ve ever get to sleep on in a hostel (a little smaller than a queen for 1 person!), hot water, clean bathrooms and warm dorms because of the wood that was used to build it. Breakfast is acceptable for a hostel. Eduardo is a very good host and ready to give you indications about what to do around the place, which you don´t easily find in Chile.

Nice location very close to the beach and a short walk to bus terminal and main town. Very friendly owners and a nice private room. I expect to stay here again on my next visit to Pichilemu. We had the private room and as an older couple we felt very comfortable.

We were made welcome from the moment we stepped inside the house! Fernanda and Eduardo are the friendliest and nicest hostel owners. We felt more like we were sleeping at a friends house than at a hostel. Very clean, nice hostel with an awesome view! Thank you again for making our stay pleasant and for taking us to all the surf spots!

Right on Infernillo beach, walking distance to the center of town and the bus station. Eduardo is friendly and helpful. Note that punta dos lobos is 10-15 minutes by car, south. Also note that you can't rent surfboards or wetsuits at the hostel, you have to walk a few minutes down the road to the surfshops that don't open until 9. Nice hot tub but you have to pay to use it. Solid and clean dorms on the first floor and private rooms with a shared apartment on the top floor.

Eduardo is the man. One of the nicest hostel owners I've yet to meet. Care's about his hostel, (he lives upstairs w/ his gal Fernanda) and is on top of any issues. Not a fancy, big TV, elaborate kitchen hostel, but that's not why you went to Pichilemu in the first place. Location is great cuz its away from Centro, but not too far. Good showers, clean bathrooms, and not too big, so it's not a zoo. He's putting in some kitchen facilities for the dorm area and a grill is coming, a great spot.

Sunset Hostel is run by a wonderfully friendly and genuine couple who want to help you enjoy your time in Pichilemu. They'll help you do whatever it is you want in the town, especially surfing. If you want to stay in a clean, pretty home with a view of the beach, look no further.

Great staff, very informative about the surf in surrounding areas. Cool little hostel, the most comfortable dorm bed i've slept on, perfect after a day of surfing. The only negative is they need a slightly larger sign advertising the hostel, other than that it was quality.
