Welcome to Dos Palmas — your home in El Tunco! 🌴🌴
A boutique social hostel in El Tunco proper (not the neighboring beach of Sunzal or across the river), Dos Palmas is steps from the beach, La Bocana surf break, and the center of town. If you want the real walkable El Tunco experience, this is it.

Vibe
Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays are social, lively party nights 🍻
Other days are chill and relaxed 🧘🏽‍♀️
Wednesdays we throw a big pool party (Sync or Swim) with other hostels joining. We have power hour of $.50 shots and $1.50 beers, ice baths, two for one tattoos, and then we take a party bus to am awesome oceanfront DJ set for sunset 🌅
We have fun Tuesday and Thursday night outings, but the hostel is relaxed.

❤️ Owner’s Note
We are a small, independent hostel run by a fellow traveler pursuing his dream.
This is our FIRST YEAR and we are still improving and learning every day.
Please let me know personally if there is anything we can do to improve — we truly care about your experience.

Perfect location in the middle of El Tunco, good atmosphere and cozy facilities. The pool in the middle works perfect as a common area. Nice parties organized by the hostel.

Top Hostel, das einzige was mich gestört hat, ist dass es in den Zimmern keine Mülleimer gab
