The Salty Dogs Hostel - El Tunco

dope af, easy to get around

The vibe here is great, Ryan is a lovely owner and it feels much more like a home stay than a hostel. I would 100% recommend staying here. Beds were comfy, aircon in room, a lot of space in a 4 bed dorm. Bathroom was standard. Be mindful it’s a 15 minute drive to the main town (el Tunco). Thanks guys!

Best hostel in the el sal hands down. The hostel super clean, amazing vibes and great family activites and meals. Ryan and jimmy have created the ultimate chill/surf hostel. Bravo

Loved the staff, super friendly, wasn’t able to fully plan because of work, but thanks to Ryan, he connected me with everyone that made the trip and amazing experience! Lovely people and very kind!

Het hostel is zooo gezellig, goeie voorzieningen, goeie ligging (dichtbij de winkels en het zandstrand) en het personeel is geweldig

Very good bedroom!!

Awesome place with a great vibe. Super social, excellent kitchen pool and organised activities. Beds in the dorm were very comfortable and great pillows. 10/10 would stay again!

We loved everything about this hostel

I absolutely loved my stay at Salty Dogs! This hostel has managed to create that perfect vibe of both social and chill. The communal kitchen is huge and very well-equipped. The pool is perfect for cooling off in the heat, and all the pups are so sweet. The hostel is within walking distance of a full-sized grocery store, a local pupuseria, and about a 20-min walk from Playa San Blas, which is perfect for sunset hangs. The staff is very helpful, and I would 100% stay here again.

Team was great extended my booking twice highly recommend best hostel in the area

It a very chill Hostel with nice common areas and free mangos. If you want to REALLY chill its the best. There is not to much to do in el tunco en general and in that area even less. I woul recommend for Surfers not so much for beginners. El tunco eally not the place to learn to Surf and the hostel is most about surfing. But if you advanced its a real cool place

Très bon Hostel avec une ambiance familiale ! Un de mes meilleurs séjours, la cuisine est complète, l’endroit bien organisé pour se sentir bien et rencontrer du monde.

People here were lovely and good kitchen space and some hammocks to chill, location wasn’t great and had to uber everywhere. Stayed in the 12 bed dorm and when I was there the bathroom was dirty with a bad smell and the room was very messy as people left stuff everywhere

Awesome hostel! Good vibes! Super cool and nice people! A good place to get stuck :)

Great time!! Wished we could have stayed longer. Lovely big kitchen and really enjoyed extra activities like the painting etc

The best hostel!! Everyone was so awesome! Highly recommend staying here! Perfect hangout spots and great kitchen. Thank you Salty Dogs for everything 🫶🏻🤙🏻

Bestes Hostel in dem ich bis jetzt war. Würde es jedem weiterempfehlen. Hätte noch paar Wochen länger dort bleiben können. Ich wünsche dem Team ganz viel Erfolg für die Zukunft ❤️

Super safe and quiet location. The pool is very nice and appreciated the complimentary pizza. The only recommendation would be is for the cleaning crew to empty the bathroom rubbish bins daily as it accumulates quite rapidly.

heel gezellig hostel met een hele goede keuken. de kamers hebbe airco ook erg fijn. worden veel activiteiten gepland

Best stay at Salty Dogs! A beautiful hostel, well ran and felt so comfortable. Highlights: Massive space, not cramped into a tiny room, able to open my bag fully with space to spare. Staff around to help whenever you need. Events organised so super easy to meet people. Comfy and spacious beds with curtains. Super clean, constantly someone cleaning the different areas. Only consideration is the location. It’s not in El Tunco so we did have to taxi around a fair bit!
