Surf Hostel Cabo ¨The Riptide¨

The property didn’t exist. It was a construction zone of rubble. Worst experience that could’ve ever happened.

Thete was nothing at that location. No one in the shops nearby new anything about a hostel Rip Tife

Not a real hostel, and it shouldn’t be on Hostelworld. It smelled terrible, was in a sketchy part of town, the owner is aloof and slightly abrasive. There was junk lying around everywhere. We didn’t trust anyone and there was no security on sight besides the owner. Our beds were not ready even though we had booked the day before. They wanted way too much for what is was, and the atmosphere was that of a trap house. The only thing going for it was surfing lessons, but we didn’t trust anythi...

El hostal claramente ha tenido mejores días; la cocina no está limpia y el baño puede mejorarse, la administración debe poner atención en esos aspectos. También sería buena idea que le solicitaran a los huéspedes mantener el aire acondicionado similar al del ambiente de fuera (cuando llegue al cuarto estaba en 22 y me congelé). El ambiente es surfista pero no es higiénico; las camas son cómodas pero no vale lo que cuestan, se que es un precio bajo pero tampoco se trata de abusar con e...

On est arrivés dans la soirée, personne n’était là pour nous accueillir. Ce sont des clients de l’auberge qui nous ont montré les lieux. On ne s’est pas senties hyper en sécurité. Ça fait le job mais personnellement je ne recommande pas.

Nice staff, well located, but safety was a concern, and the rooms aren't particularly comfortable or clean

El dólar depreciado y el peso MX sobrevalorado Hace que la relación precio/calidad no corresponda a una realidad objetiva.. Son embargo la amabilidad de Joe, compensa todo.

very barebones hostel- i probably wouldn't want to stay here more than 1 night. there wasn't really anyone staying there when i was there- just a few others so can't speak to the vibes. wifi is strong, location is close- just 10 min walk to the central area. there were lockers where you could lock your stuff in the rooms.

The place was clean, with decent wifi, and in good location. On the other hand, the hosts were being unapologetically unwelcoming, patronizing, blaming, and self-focused when I arrived after an exhaustive trip. It was challenging to protect my boundaries and establish peace. I wasn't feeling safe with them. Won't stay again.

It’s a surfers vibe, an intermit space with a handful of beds. Very laid back, chilled and everything you need but nothing fancy. Joe and Mama are beautiful people. Surfing with Joe is must, if you’re not interested in surfing or a chill vibe this may not be the place for you. If you want a taste of Mexicos surf life style, pop in. Look for the painted waves on top of the building to identify the hostel. Security low due to one bike lock for front door and draws for lockers. However, safe ar...

Il proprietario Jo troppo gentile, atmosfera cool simpatica e sicura. Lo consiglio

Super relaxed, easygoing vibe all around. The outdoor space is amazing, really comfortable. Loved the hammock! Joe, the owner, is incredibly friendly and laid-back. You’ll definitely end up spending time chatting with him, which adds a lot to the experience. If you’re into surfing, he rents out boards and offers lessons for beginners. Cherry on top: Jeoe has two cute cats that hang around in the common areas. I loved every part of my stay here! Gracias por todo Joe.

We had an amazing time in this hostel with my friend. It feels like home. The beds are very confortable and clean. The shower is also very nice. But most importantly the vibe in the hostel is very chill. Also you can learn how to surf or just keep on learning by taking classes with Jo ( one of the owner) which is a very good instructor. It was one of the best moment of our trip. I highly recommend this hostel

Super chill, friendly owner. Good selection of surfboards too. Definitely coming back to this place.

I had such an amazing time staying here. The property has great vibes and is in a great location, just a few blocks from the downtown gallery district. Joe is so cool and friendly. He has significant surfing knowledge and was a great teacher. I hope to return very soon!!

Joe was an amazing host and surf trainer! def recommended

i only stayed one night but the hostel was beautiful & i felt so safe that i slept in the hammock outside under the stars!

Joe was a very helpful host and very friendly. Hostel is in a cool part of town and everything was clean!

Great hostel and cute cat makes the stay worth it.

C’est une superbe auberge dans un petit quartier tranquille et sympa ! Joe est vraiment super accueillant et il propose des cours de surf 🏄 c’était vraiment parfait et la chambre était confortable, je recommande ! ☀️

Nice staff, well located, but safety was a concern, and the rooms aren't particularly comfortable or clean

Great hostel with great vibes. The owner, Joe is a wealth of knowledge and awesome to surf with!

amazing hostel, host is a great person, good localization, walk distance to city center

Solo pasé la noche para en la mañana tomar mi vuelo pero tiene camas muy cómodas , todos muy buena onda y todo lo necesario para estar ahi

La pasé increíble en The Riptide. Al ser un hostel pequeño, se siente todo mucho más cercano. Joe, el dueño, está siempre por ahí y eso hace que el ambiente sea muy auténtico. Conecté con la gente de una forma que no me ha pasado en otros hostales. 100% recomendado.

Solo tuve el placer de hospedarme un dia el lugar es humilde pero cumple con lo importante, esta muy cerca del centro, y muy cerca de donde pasa los autobuses incluyendo la ruta del desierto, el staff que por lo que entiendo que es familia son super amables y me senti en casa, la señora, la mama, es una persona muy dulce y me ayudo con varias cosas de la ciudad y recomendaciones.le agradezco mucho.

Such lovely owners. Fun hostel in a nice location. Walking distance to the centre.

Excelente estancia. Lugar original, me gustó cómo armaron todo los muebles, baños y cuartos. Áreas comunes agradables.

Loved this hostel! Perfect for solo travelers, surfer enthusiasts, getting around on a budget, someone looking for a unique experience! Highly recommend and absolutely incredible hosts :) - amazing location to beach and centro/ downtown San Jose, very walkable - quick 10 min walk to bus that takes you all over Baja - clean and comfortable facilities - safe and secure - amazing hosts (son and mom) - skateboards & bikes to take out for free - awesome rate to rent boards - great value!!!
