About

The Costeño Beach Hostel is a paradise nestled between a stunning beach on Colombia's Caribbean coast and the lush jungle, once an old coconut farm. Its prime location is just a one-hour drive from the charming colonial city of Santa Marta and 5 km away from the world-renowned Tayrona National Park.

This magical hostel is owned by two Canadian brothers who fell in love with the beauty of this Colombian area almost a decade ago. Captivated by the location, the local people, and the culture, they decided to create a unique experience for travelers from all around the globe, allowing them to share in the wonders of this place.

Overall had a great time here although I am on the fence in terms of the atmosphere. I think what was missing were volunteers and workers rallying people together for various activities and things around the hostel. The facilities are incredible and it’s almost like a resort rather than a hostel. Room did get quite stuffy and hot at night even with the fan on

Not good at all. The price was higher tan expected, theres a hostelworld fee of $18usd, not part of the reservation... Also they wanted to charge me twice because the hostel charged the first night to my credit card at noon and the receptionist were so rude about that. We had a whole full day without energy. They gave us 1 cup of Rum and Coke for that. The water in the bathroom has no pressure if theres no energy. The pool has crabs in the bottom and too much chlorine better if you dont open your eyes.
