About

Welcome to Compay Hostel Punta del Diablo!

Compay Hostel Punta emerged from the union of three surfer bothers, brothers who shared waves, anecdotes, bonfires and journeys and who were hoping to create a place where all those could be reflected and where they could infect everyone with the value they found most important to them: friendship, which would always keep them together.

We're located two blocks from the beach. Both from the living room and the bedrooms you can see the waves, the turquoise sea and why not the dance of whales and other dolphin-like animals that every year come visit our coasts.
We also have a beautiful pool where you can relax and enjoy the sun, adding to the paradise vibe that Punta del Diablo offers.
We offer a light breakfast — just what you need to get going in the morning. At midday or in the afternoon you have a kitchen where you can cook anything you want, a kitchen which has nothing to envy the most amazing grandma's kitchen in terms of utensils and appliances. This is at your disposal 24/7, but at dinner we might invite you to a barbecue or to eat some of the dishes the chef Compay will prepare for the special occasion.
We know how hard it is to describe such a beautiful and picturesque place as Punta del Diablo, but to give you more details so as to identify Compay, we tell you that we are 300 metres away from the city centre (approx. 0.186 miles). It is ideal to go for a walk around the crafts market, get to know the Fishermen Bay (La Bahia de los Pescadores) and meet the most fantastic local characters. We are within walking distance of Dona Sandra's little market who, apart from having everything you need, is an excellent hostess, always willing to tell you the endless stories about Punta del Diablo and about the brothers Compay, who are always noisy with their music and parties. In case you're into vibrant nightlife, the Hostel is ten blocks from the most popular nightclub in Punta del Diablo, called Primata. As its owners are friends of ours, we always get invitations for the people staying at Compay.
Hammocks waiting for you, toilets with hot water all day long, comfy rooms which are cleaned every day, bed linen, a washing machine available and cool common areas where Compay and its friendly staff will try to make each one of your days the best of them all.

The hostel just reopened and they are fixing some stuff. I hope they install some mosquito nets. Many many many toilets and showers which are always clean. Breakfast is underwhelming. Only stale bread and jam. No toaster, no fruit, no nothing

Brilliant hostel, pool, big kitchen well equipped! large fire in the courtyard we did Asados 2 nights in a row. Private room was big, staff were nice and location really good. However, mosquitos! They NEED nets in the rooms, got bitten to bits hardly slept whilst we were there. Walls covered in them every night, even if you keep the doors/ windows closed there’s gaps everywhere so they get in. Please please sort this issue!! Breakfast was abysmal, just bread/ ddl
