Looking for a hostel?
Budget travelers know there's 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 little more.

    Great service, even late at night at arrival, comfortable room, warm water, cleen sheets. Close to the airport and great location near the main bus stations for travel further to Santo Domingo. Bladimir has been extra helpful and accomodating, helping us with transfer to the bus station. We felt very safe and comfortable and would gladly choose it again.

    The hostel has a great location. 7 mins walk to the beach There are a couple of restaurants and bars close by (apart from the ones on the beach). The girl in the reception could guide us well and the customer service was good! They have parking lots, practical!

    Love this hostel! It’s only a 10min walk to the beach.The availability of a private room and the space to socialise was great. It’s family run and they make you feel super comfortable as a solo female traveler. They are so helpful with booking excursions (which are much cheaper than the prices you get anywhere else.)

    Very nice, helpful and welcoming hosts. The Hostel is in a safe and calm area and was the perfect place to be for the first two nights in the Dominican Republic.

    Absolutely exceptional in every regard. Great location and great price. I liked everything about my stay there. The place is its own little oasis (with high level of privacy), clean and cozy and very close to the beach. I felt very safe there. The owner (Bianny) and the property manager (Angel) are very nice, and super friendly. Once again, I felt very comfortable and can not wait to go there again...
