Very basic room with a fan but it did the job for one night. The fan was good and we didn’t need air con. It’s got a kind of hostel vibe so I’m glad we only had one night as it’s not our style of accom, but the room was clean and the staff friendly and helpful. Great location, just a short walk to the centre.
The people were great, easy to meet new people and the layout of little houses made it feel like there was lots of space and privacy at the same time. Loved seeing hummingbirds out the window all day. Great surf lessons organised by the hostel, which were also much cheaper than others in town. Easy walking distance to lots of food options and supermarkets and a 3 min walk to the beach. Well equipped kitchens, which would get cleaned everyday and the showers had warm water. I felt very safe and welcomed as a solo traveller.
Beautiful room, but we paid extra for that. Good facilities and helpful staff. The hostel is in a great location.
This is my second stay at Cool Vibes Hostel, and it was again definitely a 5-star experience despite being a simple, budget-friendly place. The staff were super friendly and helpful from the start. The hostel lives up to its great name by truly having a cool and friendly feel. It's easy to meet new people from around the world here, which made my stay even more enjoyable. The beach is within a 1-minute walk, which is super convenient for a quick dip or to watch the sunset. I will be back again!
the staff were a pleasure and very helpful always smiling and ready with knowledge to help.Your own room with a double bed for the price of a bunk bed in other hostels is a pleasure for budget travellers .l look forward to my return there one day soon l think
Amazing place! Staff extremely kind and available, they helped us with literally every needs. The hostel is at walking distance from everything and the area is super safe. The best option for the cheapest price in the area! It was a very pleasant surprise.
It felt safe to be in, perfect if you’re a backpacker looking to meet new people
The best hostel I have stayed in, in Costa Rica. Great pool, really good vibes and great for meeting people. The staff were great, it’s right on the beach. they have loads of surf boards to rent - beginner and expert. Just a great fun place to be. And comfy, quiet rooms
