    The hostel is very nicely with 2 clean pools, the stay in the tiki hut is also very good and bigger than most huts we stayed in before. They have a lot of hammocks and also the food is very good, the breakfast is basic but for sure good enough. It’s located near the beach in the most active street. Also they host free salsa dancing classes and other activities like karaoke. You can also book tour at the tiki hut hostel.

    Everythings lovely made and really good staff who take care of everything. Fair prices (bar & restaurant) and good food! We loved to stay there and even extended our stay. The obly downside are the beds, which are new but hard (normally in the beginning). Otherwise very comfortable and clean. Absolute recommendation.

    Only improvement would be for WiFi to reach the rooms and not just communal area.

    I loved this place. Great atmosphere, great pool, lovely unique private rooms. Always something going on.

    Wifi only in common areas Only cold water shower (this is Palomino and not hostel specific)

    Pool area is great, having two pools is very nice. Very good mosquito net for the bed. The bed itself was also pretty comfortable. Though my room/hut was very basic, I didn’t feel like I missed much. Spent most of my time by the pool! Great location in Palomino, close to a lot of restaurants, shops and to the beach. I liked that this place was a bit more quiet and chill as I was just looking to relax for a few days. Breakfast was pretty good, but service was slooow. Reception staff were very nice and spoke English.

    It's probably more of a hotel with a dorm or two than a hostel? There's no kitchen or other facilities that I would associate with hostels... But I do know this is becoming more common. It's top budget, for the area, but does have enough of a luxury feel to make this worthwhile, I think... It wasn't hugely social when I was there, but that could just be my experience!

    It's a really nice space, the room was nice, lots of hammocks to chill in. Pools were lovely. I enjoyed the live music at the restaurant and some of the activities that they put on. The bar area was fun, pool/ping pong tables etc. Staff were friendly and accommodating.

    - They charge you to refill your water bottle which is outrageous! - No WhatsApp group for activities. Someone just shouts over a mic, which you can barely understand,

    - Great location! - Good promo drinks - Good food in restaurant, although expensive compared to everywhere else

    Lovely hostel but it did feel like more of a hotel and was lacking the social atmosphere of a hostel.

    Fruit serving is not included in breakfast, it's expensive.

    Location is great, all facilities are clean, and once in the hostal everything is accesible. I liked the night activities, live music its something I enjoyed. Service people are friendly, they do speak english and offer good guidance. I liked we could stay a bit more after check out, even though we didn't have a room, we could still use restrooms, towels and pool. I didn't use the Wi-Fi, but my cellphone network didn't work at all times. This is something I consider positive for time out social networks, but maybe not for a remote worker

    The time in the hostel was perfect. There are a lot of places to relax, a nice pool area and the drinks and food is really good. They have also a pool table and a ping pong table. They are offering some activities. The private room has a lot of space and everything is clean. We would definitely recommend it.

    The breakfast didn’t meet the expectations at all. A cofee, some eggs and a juice. Too poor. The breakfast attendance was also bad. The staff was not kind at all, and when faced they objected and didnt show and empathy at all. A big diferencie with the bar staff who were awesome.

    Nice and clean. Maybe the Best at sight.

    There wasn’t anything in particular.

    I enjoyed the community areas, there are many spaces to hang out, read something or have a good chat with other travellers.

    There are not so many planned events or activities (constant karaoke).

    You had to purchase your own lock if you’re staying in the shared rooms. They didnt have any when i got there. The mosquito net in the private rooms were thicker and didnt allow the air from the fan to penetrate.

    Convenient location, friendly staff; feels like your staying with family/friends. It has a nice restaurant/bar and fun activities at night like live music, karaoke and Salsa classes.

    Didn’t like the food policy, feel like I couldn’t buy anything outside of the hotel. Also, water should be at least free taking into account the God dam heat palomino is.

    Could do with bigger beds in the bunks. Being over 6 foot, they are on the short side.

    The pool and restaurant is amazing. Also the bar has big screens for live sports like F1, which was really nice.

    Pack mosquito repellent as bugs tend to get into the nets at night and showers/toilets are outdoors

    Good location to the beach and really nice restaurant attached to the hotel. Facilities were clean and tidy. Staff very friendly and helpful.
