We offer the best prices and we know you’ll enjoy it. We have a family atmosphere and one that makes you feel at home; we have tourist information, also round trip transportation to the touristic destinations because we have our own travel agency inside the hostel. We are located in historic downtown Santa Marta, half a block from beaches and the most beautiful bay of America.

We have excellent facilities, restaurant, free WI-fi internet in all the hostel, enclosed open-air seating areas, a big second floor patio where you can enjoy breezes and viewing the night’s stars, luggage storage room, and a safe box for keeping your valuable stuff, totally free for our guests. Stay with us to be more comfortable. We offer the best pricing on tours and the best room rates.
