The best hostel we have stayed. The private room are large with tvs and own bathroom. Bar is small with friendly staff. We had a couple of late nights at the bar. Food is fantastic we ate breakfast, lunch and dinner at the hostel. Supermarket is a 20 minute walk. There are a number of bars walking distance from hostel on the street 19. Center City and beach is a 30 minute walk or 1 US bus ride. During the day a taxi to Beach or City is 6,000 peso and at night is 7,000 peso. We look forward to our next visit to Santa Marta. Facially are tv room, bar, 24 hours reception, hammocks, restaurant, public computers, pool table and I can forgot the pool.

Amazing experience with the guys today on the minca motorcycle day tour. The bikes are great and well maintained. the guide is awesome always showing us amazing places. Defiantly worth the money. Give them a message on Facebook or WhatsApp and book the tours now as they fill up fast. The hostel looks great too.

The double rooms with private bathrooms are enormous and have a TV and air conditioning. The shower is cold, but it's not an issue because of Santa Marta's heat. The bathroom is outdated and could've been cleaner. The pool and the terrace are great and they have a large TV room. They have lockers for valuables and free luggage storage if you go to Tayrona or Ciudad Perdida. We booked the Ciudad Perdida trek through them and the process was incredibly easy and we were happy with the company they use (Turcol). Included breakfast was basic (toast, eggs and coffee), but tasty. The location is outside of the center of Santa Marta. We would recommend taking a taxi if you plan to visit Santa Marta. We chose to walk (25 minutes) and although we were told the area is safe to walk during the day, it wasn't the best experience. After our trek we chose to stay here again. Overall we were very satisfied.

This place has great facilities. Location wise it’s outside the center and you need a taxi. The pool, the lounge area, bar and possibilities to buy food/snacks there are great. Finally, the staff is friendly. Yet, the Music with DJ at the pool is nice, maybe there was a specific party, yet the music did not stop before at least 1.30 and therefore was very loud and our room was next to it, so noisy doesn’t even cover it. If this is in general they definitely could and should improve this part.

Nice hostel! Crew is really friendly and helpful. Rooms have a lot of space and every thing is clean. The bar in the hostel is a good place to hang out, get to know other guests and chat.

It's my favorite hostel I've been to so far. They have a nice pool, and is really social. They have lots of open space, a kitchen, and even computers. They have a bar that has games on certain days. Definitely would recommend A few days into my stayt, i rated this hostel as 3 stars, because of the fact they play music until late at night, and it was nearly impossible to sleep until around 2 am. At first it was annoying, however since you cant sleep until it is late, it encourages you to go join in on the activities and be social at the bar. This hostel is definitely a party hostel, so just expect that when you come. otherwise this hostel is a great time, very laid back, with lots of places to hang out and be social, and plenty of places where you can find a spot to be alone. its a good time. i definitely staying here a few nights, preferably on a weekend, where it really comes alive. The pool is great, and the staff is very friendly. i actually like this place so much, ive decided to volenteer here for 2 weeks! its a really fun environment, i gaurentee youll have fun. Only thing i would be careful with is the private rooms do not have AirCon. i would definitely reccomend a dorm over a private room. you wont regret the decision when its 87 degrees at night and even hotter in your room lol

Great hostel. Big spacious rooms and comfy beds. The pool is where everyone hangs out in throughout the day cause it is soooooo hot in Santa Marta. Stoked the kitchen made proper bacon as well. Needed those big hearty breakfasts when the bar has 8 happy hours throughout the day.
