The hosts were amazing!! The girls were very friendly and made sure we understood what they said. The food was great too! The beach is gorgeous and the plankton tour that they offered was so much fun!

If you don’t mind sacrificing a few days of showering for location and the experience of staying in a hostel on the beach then this is the place for you. I stayed for 2 nights in a shared room and absolutely loved it. The staff are all great and helped us with activities to do on the beach and the homemade pizzas are amazing. Perfect place to watch the sunset with a few beers, and located pretty much in the centre of the beach. Wish I could’ve stayed longer.

Awesome Hostel right next to the beach. A perfect stay if you want to overlive the touristic mass which falls in to the beach every day between 12 and 4pm After and before this time you have the beach for yourself. The hostel is rustic and simple but exatcly that makes it so perfect. there is no running water nor Wifi but you can shower etc. with bottled water. there is a small space in front of the hostel exclusively for guests, perfect spot for the sunset and reading a book. The plancton tour is great. Perfect and huge pizzas for dinner (not included) and the breakfast (included) is top. I stayed there when the owners where in hiloday and the hostel was run by two girls that fell in love with the place - they made a perfect job and created a perfect atmosphere. Thank you for that :)

Nuestra Cabañita is located within the Corales del Rosario Nature Reserve. Our house is made of wood and has a rustic style. It is small and cozy, we all sit in a large bar to have breakfast and contemplate the beautiful landscape.

Welcome to Nuestra Cabañita. We hope you feel at home in the Caribbean. Here you can enjoy beautiful views from our open dining room, cocktails and meals, and look under a pleasant shade in front of one of the most beautiful sunsets of the Colombian Caribbean. We will wait for you!

Our hostel is located in a very beautiful area, away from the noise of the shops, which is called Playa Tranquila.

Nothing that I didn’t like. There’s a shower that drizzles out water, but if you don’t mind going a few days without one then this place is perfect for you. You can literally just jump in to the sea instead.

It quite hot even with the windows open (this is not the property’s fault, it’s just the weather). The mattress was not the comfiest, it seems old and had imprints in each side where others have slept.
The hosts were amazing!! The girls were very friendly and made sure we understood what they said. The food was great too! The beach is gorgeous and the plankton tour that they offered was so much fun!

No sunbeds or anywhere to lie and relax, just a few chairs. Currently doing renovations for a third level, but very considerate about it. Dont stay here if you're a solo traveller looking to meet people
Further along the beach where it is much quieter. Scrambled eggs and coffee for breakfast. Didnt get a chance to eat here, but they have burgers and pizzas from 7pm. Beds have mosquito nets. Clean and tidy. Small place, only 4 rooms.

The location was amazing, we had to walk a little from the entangle to the beach but it paid off. We basically had a private beach area and weren't hassled by sellers. The rooms had incredible views looking out over to the sea. As it's a small hostal we basically had the place to ourselves. The staff were so friendly and helpful and the breakfast they made very tasty.

The location of the property is simply stunning, it’s right on the water and located further down Playa Blanca in an area not as crowded. Waking up to the sound of the waves was a highlight! The staff were so lovely and welcoming and made our stay super comfortable. The included breakfast was delicious and the home made pizzas even more so!! The design of the hostel is well thought out and tastefully decorated - there is limited water and electricity but it adds to the experience of staying on a beach!

Sheets were very uncomfortable always falling off the bed. On the second night there was a very large storm and water was leaking onto the mattress. We got 0 sleep trying to stop the water from coming in (we couldn’t) so we’re up all night. The staff did give us a discount off the room price which was nice of them. Also towels provided were too small and no soap to use
Location was great. As you enter on the beach it is extremely crowded... this place is a good 15 min walk along the beach where it is so much more peaceful. Luggage can be an issue though.. we left our main luggage in Cartagena city at a hostel (very nice of them). If you do have large luggage you will have to carry it along the water or they have wheelbarrows and will take them for you. The private room was beautiful- amazing views and right up near the ocean. Bathroom was always clean (I thought I would have had an issue with the use of a bucket- but it was fine) Staff were really nice and friendly

My stay here was amazing! Very basic but that's what I expected. All of the staff are lovely, rooms are lovely, no fans but very breezy and the breakfast was really good. The part of the beach that you are on is the best on the island, away from the tourists and right on top of beautiful water. :) Wifi was also surprisingly very good.
