Looking for a hostel?
Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Amazing green central reservation which gives such a cool jungle vibe to the place. The host (Johnathan) was super attentive and friendly which made the holiday so much more comfortable and easy going. The rooms were super comfortable , sturdy and secure. The kitchen area was ideal for cooking and socialising with loads of hang out spots. the hostel was in a great spot for going surfing which of course is the most important! Best place I’ve stayed at, I’ve recommended to all my family and friends.

    The hotel was quiet, cleaned everyday and the rooms were so nice and spacious with a massive comfy bed! Felt so relaxed here and its footsteps from the surf and in a great location near the best restaurants and cafe.

    The most beautiful hostel I've ever stayed in. Gorgeous open plan kitchen dining living room with pool overlooking field. Great location being a few minutes walk to the beach and a 20/25 minute walk to Beginners Bay for surfing. Lovely owners, staff and volunteers and a delicious free breakfast everyday.

    The hostel staff is incredibly friendly, attentive, and always available to make your stay memorable. As a solo female traveler, I found this place safe and welcoming. The hostel's design is stunning, the dormitories are impeccable, and privacy is respected. Additionally, its ideal location just a 2-minute walk from the ocean and 5 minutes from the fantastic surf spot at Santana Beach makes it a perfect choice. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Nicaragua.
