I LOVED my stay at Casa Losodeli. I stayed for almost three weeks and have felt so welcome - met amazing people, and the volunteers and staff are outstanding. The rooms are basic and clean (I stayed in four different room types during my time at Losodeli). Jesus, Diego, and Adrianna were always so much help - and I loved the activities they planned each night. The wifi was reliable with the exception of one day, which was huge for me since I'm working remotely. The location was great - walking distance to so many beaches and a 15 min drive to La Punta. I also rented a scooter for about two weeks which made getting around even easier. I'd totally come back here to stay! In fact, I will be back!

La Punta's prime location is arguably best experienced at Frutas y Verduras. We spent just over two weeks exploring every corner of this house, one of the first in the area. Despite the lively atmosphere of La Punta, Frutas y Verduras offers a peaceful retreat. The service was exceptional, thanks to the very kind and helpful staff. The rooms are clean, comfortable, and nicely decorated. The property boasts several relaxing spaces, from the swimming pool to the main terrace. Our favorite spot was the 'eagle nest' atop the building, offering a spectacular view of the beach and surf lineup. Breakfast was also a highlight, featuring a delightful selection of toasts, waffles, crepes, and more. We truly felt at home, and a heartfelt thanks goes out to the entire team.

Super close to the ocean, special place with it's own unique atmosphere. Friendly staff and quiet area. Has been used by many authors so there are books everywhere. Recommended for something out of the ordinary!

Such a special place. Loved the aesthetic design in common areas and rooms. The location is amazing, in the vibrant centre just by the local market and cheap delicious food places. The cleaning staff does a great job at keeping the spaces lovely and inviting, and the volunteers organise activities every day, which made it super easy for me to socialise with other solo travellers. Does at great job at being social, but not a party hostel. Would definitely recommend to a friend!

This is a very good basic hostel with private rooms. Clean bathrooms ? Kitchen.drinking water, and free coffee. Being of the older end of backpacker (70+) this place reminded me of the old YHA type accomodation

This hostel is one of my favourite hostels I’ve stayed at. Such a social vibe with plenty of opportunities to meet new people and explore Oaxaca. It felt super safe and always very clean and the volunteers are the kindest humans ever!!

What's not to like! Comfy beds, best eggs for breakfast ever, great location near everything, well equipped kitchen and double rooms...but the staff take the cake though! Everyone is very friendly at this hostel, particularly the housekeeping staff. The value for money is unrivalled in the area and we feel very lucky to have found is gem in the Centro Oaxaca! Thanks for having us!

Interesting hostel with an excellent owner who is super friendly and helpful, the dorm room is constantly clean and there's a cute little terrace. Nice social vibe when I was there and free decent filter coffee in the mornings. I stayed a long while and it was a good cheap base for exploring Oaxaca state.

Great location, the included breakfast was tasty and ample, and I appreciated that while the hostel had a social/friendly atmosphere they respected quiet hours with a firm 11pm for the bar/music to shut down. I had booked a private room and found the bed comfortable and clean.

Great location to walk to the beautiful beaches for swimming. A nice social hostel but not a loud party hostel so idea for solo travel or work. The pool was very ideal for the sometimes extreme heat!

Calm, quiet and relaxing hostel. The 4-bed female dorm is comfortable with beds that are built in to the wall (so no getting woken up by creaky, wobbly bunk beds) with space for your stuff and privacy curtains. Nice to have breakfast included in the room rate. Staff are friendly.
