Burnt Toast Surf Camp - Hostel

1.0 star property
6.4 out of 10, (12)
"Online photos need to be updated to represent the place. The dorm space could be a bit cleaner. The bed was fine and sheets/towel were clean. I had a good nights sleep! The host was a nice guy as was the guy who checked me in. An overall great place to stay if you like affordable, rustic, simple place to sleep while enjoying Playa Palada and Guiones! "

Casa Juliana: Beautifully renovated Villa in Jan '25 with pool steps from beach

9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (94)
"Nice place to stay if you want to relax and get away. Close to some amazing restaurants… our favorite was Tides. They have live music and great fish and chips. The best frozen drinks on our trip. The location is remote and it takes a while to get to attractions. Only downside"
