Facing the beachfront in Guayabas, Porã Chacahua features a private beach area and a bar. The accommodation provides a shared kitchen and free WiFi.

All units at the hostel are equipped with a shared bathroom and bed linen. This place is paradise. And yeah. I mean you are in Chacahua and the land itself is paradise but Pora just makes it perfect. The staff are unbelievable, remarkable humans that will go out of their way to help you and make sure your stay is magic. Not only are they incredibly smart and resourceful, I must highlight the incredibly solid humans they are: my husband got really sick and we arrived 2 days later. Not only did they welcome us with open arms and genuine concern, but they also let us stay those 2 nights we arrived late as an extension to our original booking. They also put together a loving decoration because we visited on our honeymoon. Don't even hesitate in staying here. It's like people came together and agreed this place would be run by amazing, warm and empathetic people. We will absolutely be coming back. Thank you for everything, guys!
