I had THE BEST stay at Punta Huanchaco Hostel. Dario & Gigi are the most welcoming people I’ve ever met. They were incredibly kind and helpful, it felt like I was staying over at my grandparents. They gave me some really good recommendations for surf lessons and places to eat. I even got a discount! I was there during a low season, so it wasn’t too busy. The hostel had everything I could’ve wanted and more. The people were just lovely, it was hard to leave this place.
