El mejor lugar para descansar, es un lugar único, que privilegio haberme hospedado nuevamente, es mi tercera vez y espero ir antes de su cierre final, los extrañaré enormemente, son un lugar simplemente espectacular. No lo piensen, si tienen la posibilidad de ir vayan!

Great hostel right next to the beach, the beach bar is super delicious, great place if you want to improve your Spanish as mostly local Colombian travellers stay there, no international atmosphere

Nice hostel more or less directly on the beach. I had the hostel room for myself, it was clean and comfy,the kitchen was not good equipped, the restaurant/bar had good food for reasonable prices - breakfast was good!

Excelente Hostal. Directo a la mejor playa en la region de Santa Marta. Se puede escuchar las olas del mar cuando se despierta. Todo muy limpio con aseo cada día. El personal también súper amable y la comida del restaurante muy rico. Muy recomendable!

You really pay for the beach because the rest is not great. The kitchen is really dirty, the bathroom in our room too, no locker in the room. I had 5 massive nail popping out of the bed near my head, I asked to change rooms cause I would have been dangerous for me hitting my head on those in the night. It's super isolated and there is no shop close by, you have to walk for 25min. The beach is nice and the staff is great and really helpful! The hostel just need some love in the commodities.

Beautiful location!! Such a sweet stay and kept noticing how great access was to the water. I hope they’re able to maintain this spot and resist all the resort development 🙏🏼 great food - kind service

Overall facilities are pretty run down and need maintenance so the value isn’t there. Power went out for a full day while there and shower had hardly any water pressure. Beds a bit uncomfy. Location is good for right on the beach but ~25 mins taxi from town. It seemed like pretty much everyone staying there was either a local or family so there wasn’t much of a social vibe especially at night. Staff were overall nice and food from the restaurant was delicious. Lots of cute cats and dogs too.

Ein solides Hostel wo es sich durchaus aushalten lässt. Superfreundliches Personal an der Rezeption. Ich hatte kein Schloss für den Locker, konnte mir aber eins ausleihen. Das Frühstück ist gut und der Kaffee großartig. Am Abend wird Feuer gemacht, was ich nett fand. Cool ist außerdem, dass da einfach Iguanas rumlaufen :D

Buen lugar. Un poco lejos de la ciudad pero cerca de la playa. Depende de qué quieras estar más cerca

Really good Location with a beautiful sunset, perfect for a night or two if you are flying in or out of Santa Marta. De dorms are okay, not a lot of privacy.

I wanted to stay close to the airport as I had a flight to catch, and wanted to enjoy the beach the day before my flight. I definitely did. The hostel was nice, there are no actual windows in the dorm which means you can hear everything. Not recommended for light sleepers. Earplugs helped me. Reception staff was warm, restaurant staff a bit less. Food was fine, lots of veggie options. I enjoyed my stay here, loves the bohemian vibe and the many dogs, cats, the beach. P/Q is medium.
