Hey there!
We are a small familiar hostel (max 24 guests) in the center of Puerto Viejo.
Our goal is to create a home away from home. Our guests very appreciate the familiar vibe as its very easy to get in touch with other travelers.
We are not just a place to sleep, we want to be a part of an unforgetable journey.
Puerto Viejo is a small town close to the panamanian boarder with beautiful beaches and nationalparks. You find Supermarkets, ATM, Bars, Restaurant - all what you need :) - in walk distance from the hostel.
