This hostel is truly one of my favorites while traveling. I stayed for 6 nights and don’t even know where to start. The staff and owner are so lovely and caring. All of the people were really social and my stay felt like hanging out with a big friend group. The facilities themselves are also great – there are a lot of chill-out areas, a pool, and a kitchen. The included breakfast was so good, and you could choose from 3 options every morning. I highly recommend this hostel for your stay in Ometepe!!! (:

It was close to everything! The people working there were so kind and went out of their way to help us and offer us. Wonderful suggestions.! Only a 20 minute walk away we went for a walk to see the petroglyphs and also we went to a volcano fed cool water pool, which was great. They also have yoga in the area and beach volleyball nearby. I came with my daughter who is 14 years old and she had a blast. We love the hammocks and the chill vibes!
We loved it!!

Amazing experience, warm people and a sense of belonging. The room was spacious and clean. Lots of places to chill around the hostel. Will come again :).
Notice - You will need a scooter to get around and to see the nice places on the island - It is not a problem, and the hostel staff can help with this :)

wasn’t aware that in Ometepe you can’t get anywhere without bikes so make sure you factor that into the cost of your stay if your on a budget. £8 ish for a bed but then an extra $15 /20 dollars to rent a bike each day.
