Property Description

Located right on the quietest and pretty Beach of Santa Marta (Cabo Tortuga) and close to Santa Marta´s airport, Playa del Ritmo is the only beachfront Hostel of Santa Marta, specially designed for travelers to experience the real Caribbean lifestyle!

We have an amazing Bar / Healthy Food Restaurant (With vegetarian and vegan Options) in front of the beach, where beers are always cold and good music is always playing.
In case you´re a good cook, we have a guest kitchen where you can cook whatever you want!

At Playa, backpackers from all over the world spend days chilling on the beach, playing volleyball and football, doing yoga, going diving, tanning and enjoying the most beautiful sunsets in the shade of our palm tree hut, listening to the best Caribbean tunes! And we have kayaks and paddleboards for guests.

Playa del Ritmo is the only BEACHFRONT Hostel where you can find dorms with Air Conditioning or Fan from 4 up to 6 persons with an amazing Sea View :)

Should the beach life become a bit too much hard work, you can easily go to Rodadero area (5 minutes by bus) or to Santa Marta’s downtown (15-20 minutes) where you can find supermarkets, cash points, shopping, restaurants, and nice bars… it´s also very easy to get to different attractions such as Tayrona, Minca, Lost City, Palomino, you just have to go to the reception for good travel advice...And we are just 5 minutes away from the Airport.

If you are looking for a good place to relax, rest your feet, and have a cold beer, this is your place.

Nice little place, the only hostel next to the beach (with a normal price) that I found! Staff are nice and helpful, food is ok, breakfast has a few options. Downsides are no AC (for me fans did the job), no shoping within a walking distance, and beach closes at 18:00. Perfect for a quiet and peaceful day at the beach after a long flight!

It’s nice to stay right at the beach for sure, but the next & only supermarket close by is about 10-15min walk away (through a questionable neighbourhood). However the staff was super friendly and the included breakfast is nice - you can use their chairs for the beach for free as well! However, the kitchen is not made for cooking and I guess you have to pay for getting drinking water on which you will spend quite some money in the heat. The dorm we stayed at was clean & had a fan! Not much to do in the area
