We stayed at Esperanto Hostel during Semana Santa. It is really nice and my favorite part were hammocks on the third floor, best place to take an afternoon nap overlooking the ocean. We had 5 people in our room (bunkbeds), our own bathroom and shower. The hostal has wifi, internet and a small kitchen and common area. 5-10 min walk... More

A nice hostel located away from the main party center of montanita. Its close enough that you don't feel left out but far enough away that the partying till 4am wont keep you awake. Its clean and simple with a friendly staff.

Beautiful Hostel, new and clean. Best view of the beach, with hammocks and a nice place to hang out. All of the ecological touches are really nice, like the toilets! Really close to the beach, but not right in the middle of town which is always best! Don't miss it if you are in montañita!!

The Hostel is great and the service is excelent. There is peace and tranquility in the hostel which contrast with the crazyness (in a good way) you see in Montañita. The rooms are clean and everything is in perfect conditions. It's right next to the ocean, you can hear the ocean in your room and you have a great view.... More
