Summary: Greeted by the beautiful vibrant Alejandra at Reception, we were guided into this clean and spacious private room with a friendly welcome. This is one of the Best hostels we’ve had the pleasure of staying at. Options for dining in at the Sage restaurant or several others options within walking distance. Hammocks and cabanas provided throughout the property located right on the beach. Alejandra and staff are so loving and warm, it felt like family. We enjoyed it so much we extended our stay. Alejandra and staff offer a chill vibe and is contagious throughout the hostel and community in Cocles and Puerto Viejo attracting like minded travelers. Alejandra is so loving she even through me a birthday party, including cake and watermelon, inviting all the guests to gather together. I was truly touched. Alejandra’s attitude was not only excellent service but also felt like love.
