Near the beach, bars, supermarkets, bus stops to quepos/san jose on short walk distance. Young, superchill, friendly and super helpful host, got hints and he accepted me also to early check-in without issues. Well equipped kitchen. Sockets near the bed. Probably i was lucky, but had great room mates, respectful, trying to not make noise, and bringing good humour, this is an important aspect that basically change the experience

I stayed during the off season and had an entire bunk room to myself. The views across Jaco are amazing from most of the rooms and the rooftop. The bar/restaurant downstairs was great, and the staff/volunteers were friendly and fun. Overall it was a great stay.

We loved the room we had a lovely cross Breeze in the private bedroom and loved the modern bathroom and overall vibes. The staff were very friendly and accommodating to us and we loved the breakfast they served us. We saw toucans from the bedroom. A short walk to a. Lovely Jacó beach with reallly waves and location was great to easily walk to the city area with lots of food options. Bed was comfortable and we felt very much taken care of .

All hostels in Jacó

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.

Everyone at the hostel was incredible - the owner, Brian, as well as the friendly volunteers and staff. There were great food promos each day, generous happy hour times and prices, and the AC at night was an absolute lifesaver. I felt extremely safe at this hostel as both a young woman and a foreigner, and my friends and I were very sad to leave. A couple of us are even considering going back to work there!!
