    Great place. Great staff. Great veggie cooking (even if I forgot the lads name... Jose? Either way, dig those rice nugget thingies, the yam fries and the cheese sauce!)

    Small and simple but with everything you need what makes it perfect for the unique carbo experience. Easy to find. Nice common spaces. Social. Close to the beach. Nice staff. And Hammocks 👍

    The location is great. There’s WiFi, electricity and warm water and that’s not granted in Cabo.

    Nice house, close to the beach, good food (beware dinner is served very late at 9:30-10pm), nice people, great garden

    Location is great, staff is wonderful, the whole atmosphere was great cause the hostel is tiny and cozy so it was easy to connect with other travelers but I guess that also depends on who is staying there at the moment you are there.

    The hostel is very close to the ocean. Each day they were offering dinner for all the guests.

    The welcome was very warm and we enjoyed a dinner with the staff! Very nice place, disconnected from the world! You can relax on the hammock next to a camp fire!

    Best thing by far are the people and the vibe there, you don't need more than that to fully experience Cabo Polonio in a remarkable way. Jose from the staff apart from a great person is also a great cooker. My second third time there and I hope...

    The staff was really friendly and I had some amazing dinner there. It's a cozy little hostel next to the beach.
