Leider war es recht dreckig und das Wasser und WLAN hatte nicht richtig funktioniert, zudem hat das Bett gestunken. Die Küche ist auch Sperlich ausgestattet und nicht wirklich sauber. Personal war nett und hilfsbereit.

De accommodatie is erg vies, de gemeenschappelijke ruimtes kunnen wel een poetsbeurt gebruiken. De kamer zelf stond blank van de lekkende airco, er viel zand vanuit het plafond naar beneden waardoor de bedden bezaaid waren met zand. Het personeel is druk met vanalles behalve mensen helpen, inchecken duurde 1,5 uur en wisselgeld hadden ze niet waardoor we daar onze gehele verblijf naar moesten vragen. De eigenaar smeekte ons nog geen review achtertelaten. Abaoluut geen aanrader!!!!

maybe nice location, but otherwise not worth your money. Very dirty. They wouldn't let me check in during check in hours and said my bed was sold but I can have the same bed for three times the price now. Volunteers were friendly and helpful but the person running this hostel is a crazy person who hung up on the phone and started to pathetically gaslight and threaten me on whatsapp. Wouldn't go there if I were you.

Hospedaje muy tranquilo, contaba con aire acondicionado, céntrico a la playa. José nos recibió muy bien y nos aclaró algunas dudas que teníamos. Recomendado👍🏼

El lugar tiene buena ubicación, está alejado del ruido, por lo que es placentero descansar. José y los voluntarios ofrecen un buen trato y su cordial servicio a cualquier necesidad de los vacacionistas. Es un sitio seguro, tanto dentro como fuera del hostal. En general se disfruta de buen ambiente, recomendado!!

Just run. This is the dirtiest hostel I’ve ever been in. Everything smelled bad, the kitchen and the toilets were disgusting, you could hear all the noise in the street every night, the AC in my room was barely breething. The light in my room and in the bathroom was allways flickering. But the smell was the worst. I could not eat breakfast there allthough it was free - the first day I’ve seen a girl pulling out a hair from the coffee and that was enough. They have zero activities for guests.

Dieses Hostel ist eins der Besten in denen ich je war. Anfangs wollte ich 5 Tage bleiben, geblieben bin ich 3 Wochen. Das Hostel ist sehr sozial mit großem Gemeinschaftsraum und die Dorms sind auch top. Die Lage ist 3 Minuten vom Strand und 5 vom Zentrum. Perfekt um in Ruhe schlafen zu können, aber trotzdem zentral. Das Beste waren aber die Mitarbeiter die einem ein sehr familiäres Gefühl gegeben haben. Ich wurde zum Beispiel ständig zum Essen eingeladen. Und das alles zu einem Top-Preis! 1...

Iguana Beach tiene el ambiente que uno quiere encontrar siempre en un hostal, tiene una gran energía, se conocen personas todo el tiempo, todos los días hay algo para hacer y está bien ocupado. Además, el staff es lo máximo y Luis siempre está pendiente para hacer la estadía más cómoda para uno, es un gran host que ayuda con todo lo que necesites.

I definitely recommend Iguanas. The hosts are genuinely nice and inviting and help you feel at home. It's great value for money and the facilities are cleaned regularly. Beds are comfy. I was there during off season, was pretty empty so can't really attest of the party vibes.

We enjoyed our stay at Iguana beach house. The personal was very friendly, the location very close to the beach and the city centre. The staff tried to made us comfortable and gave us tips about montañita. Would stay here again! (Also for the baby kittens)
