Straw Hat Surf Hostel & Bar

Though the hostel was in a good location, the staff were helpful and the photos looked promising, the facilities were very basic for the price we paid. The aircon in our room wasn’t working properly so it was hard to sleep, and we had no working tap in our room for a quarter of our stay. We ended up leaving early due to this.

rubbish, wifi doesnt reach the rooms and the, heasp of shit written on the chalk board behind the bar with the sole focus of objectifying women and getting drunk. Not cool

My least favourite hostel I have been to. Upon first arrival you would expect it to be good as it has a huge pool and social area but the staff are reluctant to help you and the parties have an over whelmingly dead vibe. Our keys didn’t actually work so the room remained unlocked, the reception had no one there most of the time and if other members of staff at the bar saw you there they didn’t come down to help, and so we ended up booking the offered activities elsewhere and moved hostels.

Would not recommend. Very uninterested staff. Anytime I asked a question, nobody knew the answer. We purchased breakfast included option. Two days, cook did not arrive until 11am. 3 days, there was no cook. Atmosphere really weird. In the day, nothing much happening. In the evening, super sexualized. There were card games handed out based all on sex, a wheel of sex, and two dice of sucking/kissing strangers. I’ve stayed at lots of party hostels with a fun environment, but here was frat b...

Schreckliches,verdrecktes Hostel mit super lauter, nerviger Musik bis 1 Uhr Nachts. Geht woanders hin !!

Worst stay ever. We booked with New Years and there was no event or anything in the hostel, as we paid a huge amount of money we expected something would have been sorted out. My girlfriend had an accident in the pool, there was no medical kit available on the site. We talked to the managers and we agreed on a refund of the last night however we never ever got sent our refund. Also there were no towels available.

S*** ALERT 🚨 This is probably the WORST hostel I’ve ever stayed at, spoiler alert: ROACHES 🪳 First of all, don’t fall for this fake reviews, they offer 5% off if you give them a 10 so yes, all fake reviews. It was dangerously dirty, the bathroom kept getting flooded and since the bottom of the toilet wasn’t properly clean there was poop mixed with the water it was just disgusting! And there was this odor coming out of the shower drain that it was unbearable! Plus AC didn’t wo...

Poor cleaning, the pool is disgusting and I had roaches in my bunk, I reported and they did nothing. Also buy stuff to cook and things suddenly disappear even if the bag was branded, asked to check the cameras and they ignore me.

This hostel is gross, the staff is just annoying, i hate the atmosphere, and they have good ratings only because they have "discounts" in your stay if you left a good review. So, think about that if you are staying here.

Idk but the volunteers on the bar to unfriendly with cero experience, families with many kids in the place, definitely could be better

Solides Hostel mit guter Lage, freundlichem Staff, AC im Zimmer und kostenlosem Wasser. Insgesamt eine angenehme Erfahrung mit kleinen Abstrichen bei Küche und Lautstärke. Mafe is the best, thank you for everything :)

The staff were amazing!! I arrived into a city wide power-cut, however, Mafe was super accommodating and friendly. The hostel had pretty dodgy WiFi but otherwise had nice volunteers, a good pool and is in between PE and La Punta

So cool place !!! Love the people!!! The staff so Nice thank you to adrian and mafé too !!!

Best value hostel in Puerto Escondido. Adrian was really helpful as well

Loved the staff here- just not a lot of kitchen facilities

Great hostel with great facilities and kind staff. Adrian especially helped me check in and book tours through reception with ease. I ended up extending my stay several times as it a great base to explore Puerto Escondidio and it is really easy to meet other travellers through the daily activities the staff organise.

Tout est parfait honnêtement. L’emplacement est pile entre la punta et le centre villes c’est pas cher, à deux pas de la plage et de l’avenue principale pour les collectivos. Propreté et bonne ambiance au rendez vous ! Le bar est pas excessivement cher non plus. Gros big up à Adrian, Edson, Mafe, Medellin :) bisous les cherix n’hésitez pas à y aller ❤️❤️

The pool is amazing to chill. Good music and nice shadow. The all female dorm is really nice. The staff especially Adrian was very friendly:)

Tolle Unterkunft und sehr coole Pool area. Viele junge Leute und gute Möglichkeiten für Partys aber auch zum entspannen. Zudem täglich wechselnde Angebote und gute Möglichkeiten andere leute kennenzulernen. Mafe von der Rezeption ist zudem sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Allgemein sind die Mitarbeiter alle toll.

me gustó mucho mi estancia en este hostal. fue mi primera vez viajando solo y disfruté mucho. pregunten por medellín, me apoyó en todas mis dudas y prepara muy buenos tragos.

Adrián y Mafer excelente servicio que me brindaron , me sentí hasta mejor que en mi casa

El ruido no termina a la hora que prometen, el ambiente de fiesta es más para emborracharte que para pasarla bien, est muy cerca de la zona de antros que es un poco obscura y silencioso, a 1 cuadra de la playa, no le bajan al aire acondicionado, la organización de los refrigeradores no es buena, se comieron la comida de mi amiga.

muy buena estancia!! gracias Adrian por colaborar desde la recepción y a todo el team!

Amazing hostel! The staff are super friendly and always willing to help with anything, which really makes you feel at home. The atmosphere is incredible, super social, fun, and easy to meet people from all over the world. The common areas are great for hanging out, and there’s always something going on. Definitely one of the best places to stay if you’re looking for good vibes and a memorable experience!

Though the hostel was in a good location, the staff were helpful and the photos looked promising, the facilities were very basic for the price we paid.

Está justo atrás del mercado Zicatela, lo que lo hace súper conveniente, todos los servicios funcionan súper bien y el staff es súper amable. Me quedaría aquí mil veces.

i liked it but i got my charger stolen and the bathroom smelled weird

Lovely pool with lots of chairs. Nice staff however we didn’t find the hostel very social and the rooms extremely basic - no hair dryer, soaps or shower gel etc . The bar and food also pricey for a hostel

Excelente lugar para quedarse con amigos y pasarla bien en compañía de gente nueva!! 🫶🏾

Great Hostel, chilled staff, nice facilities including kitchen, close to quiet part of beach, close to good market and food spots
