There are places like this that you never want to leave. The atmosphere at this hostel is peaceful, and it feels just like home. The kitchen is spacious and fully equipped. There’s a fitness area. There’s also a projector for watching movies. The hostel is in a great location. It’s not a party hostel but if you’re looking for a peaceful place with cool people and a great atmosphere, this is the perfect spot for you. Thanks to Nico, and also to the volunteers Jule, Léa, and Olivier! S...

There’s a reason why so many people come here and end up extending. The hostel is cozy and has everything you need, especially the kitchen. Lots of beautiful plants, hammocks to lay in, and a good social environment. Because of the hostel’s size you become close with the other travelers. It’s not a party hostel but in my opinion it’s better than that. It’s a tranquil place to come home to after the party, or surfing, or the mangrove. Or if you want you can just do yoga and read all day...

Such a lush hostel with immaculate vibes for chilling, the kitchen is so well stocked and the pictures on here don’t do it justice it felt like a reverse catfish! It was pretty social with the people I had with me on my stay.

Wij hadden een privé kamer met eigen badkamer en de kamer was ruim en schoon. Het bed was schoon en comfortabel. De kamer had geen ramen, alleen horren wat het best gehorig maakte. Het hostel is verder heel rustig en chill en er is een grote keuken die je kunt gebruiken. Ik raad het aan!

Wonderful place in El Paredon! We were staying for 4 nights and extended for one more because we liked it that much! The hostel is not directly located at the beach, what made it perfect for us, because it was quite and calm compared to other ‚party hostels‘. The volunteers were absolutely amazing, really kind and welcoming! The kitchen was one of the best I‘ve seen in my travels. I would recommend it to everyone who wants to go to El Paredon, but is looking for a more calm and relaxed pla...

If you are looking for a friendly and almost family vibe kind of hostel, this is the perfect place to stay at! The owners were so kind. And they don’t have much beds, so everybody in the hostel naturally socializes together. The garden is really beautiful and it’s really close to the beach! Gracias Nico :)

Me gustó mucho mi tiempo en casa Austera. El hostal fue construido por dos amigos con pasión por viajar. Tiene un jardín hermoso y un cocina excelente con todo lo necesario. La onda del hostal es buena y es facíl hacer nuevos amigos. Definitivamente puedo recomendar este lugar si quieres disfrutar de un tiempo tranquilo en El Paradon.

My best ever stay at any hostel anywhere on this beautiful planet. Location is top, the kitchen has literally everything, you sleep like a baby, the common areas a spacious and cozy at the same time with plenty of small corners to chill. We didn’t now what to expect from El Paredón, but the four days we booked in the beginning ended up being almost two weeks and that was mostly because of the lovely and homelike character and feel of Casa Austera. Thank you Nico, Emi & Anto we had the best ti...
