From the owners to the volunteers, everyone is incredibly nice. You feel like you're staying with friends in a very relaxed environment. Everything is clean and the mattress is great. Be prepared to stay longer than planned!

The owner/general manager, Kiban, and his entire staff were helpful, sensitive and attentive to my needs and an absolute pleasure to deal with. The kitchen areas were very clean and well-stocked with appliances and cooking utensils.and the entire facility was comfortable, safe and very well-maintained. The price and the facilities are probably the best value-for-dollar places to stay in Samara. Highly recommended, particularly for backpackers on the earlier side of life.

Perfectly located in a very quiet neighbourhood close to the beach, supermarkets and the towncenter. The volunteers and owners do their best to keep the space clean at least twice a day and are very communicative. Very comfortable beds with lights, chargers, curtains and personal fan. I loved it!

This is the best place to stay if you want to see the arribada of turtles! The starting point of the tours is just right across the street. Ostional is quite far to drive from other locations, it is advisable to drive there in daylight and stay in the village for a night. The house is basic but comfortable, the rooms have AC and stable wifi. The hosts were super kind depsite the language barrier.

All hostels in Sámara

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
