Details

  • Description

    Description

    About 30km north of Ixtapa, and Zihuatanejo, on Mexico's gorgeous Pacific coast, is a small gathering of surf spots known as Olas hermosas. We built our retreat in the heart of this area, removed from the tourist hustle and steps from the sand. Like the locale, our hostel has a relaxed, natural atmosphere, but also offers state-of-the-art amenities and full-service comfort. We are not the average hostel.

    Designed to coexist with nature, the Hostel has tropical landscaping and amazing views. It's also completely private, with enclosed grounds and natural energy features that support the environment. We utilize a grey water system, and the latest technology in composting toilets.
