This hostel is very small, with only two rooms, which creates a friendly and close-knit atmosphere with other travelers. The outdoor kitchen is a great gathering space, and the beach is literally right next door. There’s also the possibility to go surfing at a very good price with Club 33 just beside the hostel. The host, Juan, is like a real guide — incredibly helpful and even joined us for some activities. Overall, I highly recommend this place for its calm, location, and great vibe.

Nous voyagions à deux avec une amie et nous avons pu réserver deux places ici le jour pour le lendemain à un tarif plus qu'abordable. L'hostel se trouve à l'arrière d'un surf shop et d'un restaurant et à deux pas de la plage et du centre de Tamarindo donc tout se fait à pieds depuis la chambre. On a pu profiter du petit jardin / cour à l'abris des regards donc confortable avec une cuisine extérieure tres bien équipée. La chambre etait top avec une super sdb ! je recommande vraiment l'endroit !
