Being a surf hostel, the place is run by young 20 year olds. Which is just something to be aware of in terms of the professionalism and unwarranted sassyness lol. I also thought it was a little pricey compared to its competitors in the area. It wasn’t very busy when my friend and I stayed and it gave off a very cliquey vibe. Other than that it’s literally steps away from the beach and is within reasonable walking distance to the rest of Jacó. Also loved the ample parking for our rental car.

Great place for young people, especially if you want to go surf. Nice and friendly place. Laid back. Expect music and a youthful party vibe, very chill vibes.

The best rooms are the private with shared bathrooms. The view is great from this room. And the bathroom was always well kept. There is lack of internet in the fully private rooms, etc.
