The owner was always available for assistance and there was always someone at the front desk/bar with a smile. The lounge/kitchen area with tables and hammocks overlooking the ocean and islands was such a nice place to relax.

Reliably hot showers, roof top seating, and complimentary coffee will always win me over. Private room even had a mini fridge and aircon which is quite luxurious by hostel standards.

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 location and if you like to party it is the perfect spot to meet new people. Also, everyday new activities and you should make sure to be at the Filthy Friday party (everyone around is coming and the whole hostel is packed!).

    The location is perfect, just one min away from Bocas town. The hostel got a lot of potential, keep in mind is a party hostel so it's very loud, but if you are looking to meet new people this is the right place.
