Gil Israel

This is a wonderful family owned Hostel. Rooms are very comfortable. Clean and people are very nice. The showers could be improved and they could offer breakfast for an extra amount. Overall a very good option. It is closed from playa Mann and Punta Carola and close enough to the Malecon. The have very good Snorkeling equipment at a very good price.

Nico Ecuador

The hotel was family run and everyone was super helpful. We got a room on the 2nd floor with hammocks outside our door and a beautiful view of the water. Small hotel. 7 minutes walking distance to main strip. Wonderful bakery for breakfast 1/2 block away. Water provided. Clean and comfortable and hot showers. Def. Stay here!

Lisa United States of America

good location and with the best sunset view from the window.

Wendy United States of America

We loved our stay at Dolphin House! Christian and his family are so kind and helpful and want you to have a wonderful stay! They recommended restaurants, booked tours for us, and drove us to and from the airport. Great location, clean and reasonably priced. Hotel provides beach towels and top-notch snorkeling equipment for $5 for the whole stay. Rooms 9 and 10 have a great balcony. We would definitely stay here again!

Scherer United States of America

Clean, simple, great view, easy walk to the docks. Hotel staff was incredibly helpful with airport pickup, booking excursions and providing advice for things to do/restaurants.

Jennifer United States of America

Exceptional host, extremely helpful to make my stay in the island enjoyable and efficient. Christian went above and beyond to help me, from picking-up/dropping off from airport/ferry, to booking excellent tours to sharing insightful information that as traveler we may not aware. The room is super clean, very comfortable and comes with free water fill and other convenient supplies. Christian also saved me money by allowing me to use Hostel’s snorkel equipment. in addition, it was great to learn more about his family and life on the island from him. Thank you Christian so much for everything. Wishing you and the family a very merry Christmas and a happy new year.

Yan United States of America

The staff were so kind. They went above and beyond for me. Great advice and great company. Perfect location and wonderful view. I hope to stay again!

Kyle Canada

This stay was the highlight of our trip. It was convenient to the downtown and the pier/water but quiet. The view from the large covered area outside our room was absolutely amazing! The owner was fluent in English and extremely knowledgable about the area and so incredibly helpful! He even drove us to the airport.
