Great place to meet new people and crash for a couple days in Santa Marta

The room was so stuffy and hot.

There’s not much in the city besides partying but really easy access to Tayrona. The pool and rooftop is really nice. Lots of common spaces to meet people.

How I love Masaya Hostels since my first in Quito, Ecuador back in 2018… This one exceeded my expectations - gorgeous space, layout, two different kinds of swimming pools to suit your taste, 24 hour reception, 24 hour coworking space (excellent for my boyfriend who needed to work European hours during our stay)… We just needed one night in Santa Marta to break our long travels so we chose the budget friendly dorms, and it didn’t fall short on quality and attention to details. Great WiFi, rooftop space with their own restaurant and communal kitchen, location is pretty much centre, just a few blocks from all the happenings… Keeping my eye out for more Masaya’s <3

My room was at basement and it had humidity problem. Also AC was old. Could be better.

It is not just a facility, it is also an experience. Well preserved colonial building. A living place full of energy.

Every time we usted the fan, it would disperse clouds of dust throughout the room. Also, surrounding the hotel there are a lot of homeless people, and down the street there’s an abandoned building where they gather and it smells like piss all day

The staff was super friendly and fun, the breakfast was good and had a lot of options and the pools were amazing

Bright orange wristbands with Masaya printed on them. They immediately singled us out as tourists. A more subtle way to identify guests would be preferable.

Rooftop bar and restaurant were very pleasant. Lots of cocktails to choose from. Some shaded areas to sit quietly or hammocks to relax in. There were also 2 small pools to cool off in. There was free chilled safe drinking water at reception. Close to the lively waterfront and centrally located. Front door security was a reassuring addition as area had a few unsavoury characters. Good value for money.

Tons of shared spaces to relax, read, or dance. The rooms are nice, staff is helpful and friendly. The facilities are clean and beautiful.

There wasn’t anything that I didn’t like about the property.

My family and I really like to central location of the property and the rooftop pool and restaurant. The staff were very helpful and friendly answering all our questions.

The room needs more natural light.

Staff at reception was friendly, we got a little upgrade. Nice room. Good breakfast.

The room was a bit beat up and old. But it was spacious and fine for the one night of sleep I needed before a long hike.

Very friendly and helpful staff. The building is very old and beautiful.

Sometimes it was really loud in the night, because everything is opened, so you hear the music until late.

The rooms were clean and the beds were big. Everything was clean. I slept in a dorm of 6, the most time of it we were only 2 or 3 and it was completely fine but if there are really 6 people inside there is not enough space to move around freely. The bathrooms were inside the rooms and there was free shower gel and shampoo. The lockers were big enough. The terrace is really beautiful, upstairs you have restaurant/bar (the prices are also fine) and a pool and downstairs there is another pool. Each night there are different activities like yoga, salsa, live music etc. The location is also good, near the cathedral, only 5-10 min to the beach and 10min walking to the Mercado Publico de Santa Marta, from where you to Minca or Tayrona.

The location was perfect, just around the corner of the historic centre. The building and facilities were stunning, our room was beautiful and the pools, social areas and restaurant were perfect.

The AC temperature was too low at night and the room was a bit cold. It would be good for the facility to offer a blanket.

Great location, the facilities were clean and modern, and the atmosphere was welcoming. Friendly and helpful staff. Jaider & the bar staff were top-notch! Not only were they skilled bartenders, but they also took the time to chat with guests, share local tips, and ensure everyone had a great time!

The mattresses on the beds were quite uncomfortable they felt hard.

Great facilities. Enjoyed the access to two pools even though they are small it is a great feature! Had lots of fun at the salsa dancing activity in the evening as well.

my room towels were disgusting. very tiny, the color was wasted also had holes on them. please bring your own. i had to request a change, they changed for a dark blue but still verry old towels.

Room: clean, smell nice, dark and quiet. Staff: front desk 24/7 no complains very helpful staff. pool: clean and warm. breakfast: it was fair not too many options. (American breakfast was unavailable during my stay). location: area was fairly close to everything, centro historico, malecon, parque de los novios, many restaurants and night clubs. outside from Masaya is very busy, dirty and loud however after you inside you can feel peace. last but not least during my stay and experience this hostel is more for adults. perfect for solo travels, couples, friends.
