Un peu éloigné de Palomino mais qui rend le lieu magnifique, entouré de forêt singes oiseaux et plages privées ! Une ambiance sympa entre backpackers plutôt jeunes. Juste la cuisine c'est pas possible...

One of the best hostels I have ever stayed at! Went once and came back a few months later. The access to the river and almost private beaches is amazing. Staff is incredible, they arrange so many activities that make your stay unforgettable. Will come back again for sure!!

Das Hostel liegt etwas außerhalb von Palomino, direkt an einem privaten Strand – perfekt, um wirklich abzuschalten und die Ruhe zu genießen. Die Atmosphäre ist entspannt und angenehm, ideal zum Erholen. Das Personal ist sehr nett und hilfsbereit, man fühlt sich sofort willkommen. Insgesamt ein toller Ort, wenn man dem Trubel entkommen und ein paar ruhige Tage am Meer verbringen möchte.

Great hostel, nestled in a quiet area out of Palomino, but walking distance along the beach or an easy moto ride. Great vibes and lovely staff

Jaba Jans has a lovely vibe to it - very kind staff and the family dinner night was lovely! Quite quiet vibe when we were there so was not too social - good place to relax after Rio!

Really lovely hostel with a super relaxed vibe and wonderful staff. Quite a remote location so ideal if you want a break from the town/people and to be with nature. Salsa and yoga classes are both great fun! Very sociable hostel and definitely recommend overall!

Un lugar increíble! Fácil para pasar una semana mínimo, mucha buena onda, playa privada con desembocadura del río, actividades diarias organizadas por los chicos del staff. Imposible aburrirse :)

The nature is beautiful, staff helpful and kind. The dorms are basic but do the job, however they are extremely hot at night. There is an extreme hippie vibe, think psychedelics and meditations to connect with your spirit animal. This is the most isolating experience I’ve ever had at a hostel as a solo traveler. There is an extremely cliquey group of volunteers and most guests seem to be couples or very established groups of friends.

Super entspannter Ort zum abschalten und coole Leute kennenlernen, wie eine kleine Familie. Der Strand ist wunderschön, schönster Strand Kolumbiens sehr naturverbunden. Tolles kostenloses Programm. Das Essen dort schmeckt super lecker jeden Tag gibt es ein neues Gericht. Nur zu empfehlen !!!

Wir wollten eigentlich nur ein paar Tage bleiben, aber daraus sind 2 Wochen geworden und ich würde am liebsten nochmal mindestens 2 Wochen länger bleiben! Ich habe mich so angekommen & zu Hause gefühlt & vermisse es jetzt schon so sehr, dass es sich wie Heimweh anfühlt! Die Menschen dort sind einfach nur wundervoll & auch die anderen Gäste und Volunteers und ganz besonders auch die 3 Hunde Django, Lua und ganz neu mit dabei Negrito/Viejito (mein Favorit). Der Strand & das Essen ist auch sup...

I highly recommend Jaba Jan, it's an absolute perfection! I had an amazing time and got to know a lot of people all over the world, especially people from Colombia, which was very special.

Really loved this hostel. The vibes are amazing, very chill. Slightly out the centre of town if you don’t mind that. Many free activities. Volunteers and staff are so welcoming and helpful. Really loved my time here.
