Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Beautiful room, but we paid extra for that. Good facilities and helpful staff. The hostel is in a great location.

    Great location in the heart of Puerto Jimenez, which couldn’t be closer to the standard bakery meeting point for the Corcovado trip to leave from. Walkable to all restaurants and waterfront and felt very safe! Staff incredibly friendly, including offering great local restaurant recommendations, and accommodation simple and nice with much needed air con. Staff kindly allowed us to store our luggage for 2 nights while we went to Corcovado and so we stayed an extra night upon return to Puerto Jimenez.

    The room was great with a great view. The staff went above and beyond to make my stay really special. They arrange great tours. The property is in a great location but also very quiet and close to the beach. I felt very safe as a solo traveler.

    Location, Puerto Jiménez is a very nice quite spot, mangroves, beach, town all within easy walking distance Chosa Manglar was a fabulous place with a private room set back in a mangrove garden, lots of wildlife just outside the door a good communal area and kitchen I extended my stay ii liked it so much. Would definitely recommend to backpackers and budget travellers. Will most certainly be back.
