I absolutely love the vibes at this hostel! The staff, volunteers, and local rasta crew are all so friendly and welcoming it really feels like everyone is part of one big family. The location by the beach is so peaceful, and the rooms are very clean and quiet, perfect for resting. The whole place is well-maintained, which makes it even more relaxing. The bar has such a chill atmosphere you can feel the sea breeze while lounging in the cargo net, or enjoy a game of skateboard, ping pong, pool, and of course my favorite… beer pong! There’s always something fun to do, but also plenty of space to just unwind. Overall, the hostel has such a homely paradise vibe. I only wish I had more time to stay longer, but I’ll definitely be coming back and next time I’m bringing friends!

My stay at Frida Ka was very nice. The hostel is located right along the main pathway to the beach, though I didn’t spend much time there. More importantly, it’s in the heart of the main strip, making it super easy to walk to all the nearby restaurants and shops. Although it’s a hostel, it’s not a social one, which made for a quiet and relaxing stay. I stayed in a mixed dorm and had no issues with the other occupants. The breakfast was great—not included, but reasonably priced for the area. The staff was friendly and always remembered me whenever I passed by, which added a nice personal touch. Overall, I had a great experience and would definitely stay here again!

Staying at Sip Sunset Hostel was an unforgettable experience. From the moment I arrived, the hosts Josh and Leonard made me feel incredibly welcome — their hospitality truly stands out. They go above and beyond to make sure every guest feels at home, always ready with local tips, good conversation, and genuine warmth. The property itself is a hidden gem. It connects directly to a private beach, which means you can enjoy peaceful sunrises and sunsets away from the crowds. The lounge area is equally amazing — cozy, relaxed, and perfect for meeting other travelers or just unwinding with a book and a drink. Whether you’re looking for adventure or simply a quiet retreat, Sip Sunset Hostel offers the best of both worlds. Highly recommend this place if you’re heading this way — it’s more than just a hostel, it’s a vibe.

The Hostel is very welcoming, providing free breakfast to those staying. The staff and managers were all especially kind and treated you with respect & were able to help with trips and tours. It was my first experience in a hostel & I met loads of new people and had an unforgettable experience. The place had a perfect balance of fun & relaxing moments with the different activities they did every night which was also nice. An overall great place to stay for those on a budget and especially solo travellers

One of the best hostel I've been to so far. Located a little outside El Nido, the place is quiet at night. Great vibe and music until 8-9pm. Good value for money. The facilities are very good, first time I see bunk beds with double sized mattresses. Everything has been well thought about. The building itself is very cool and the space invites to chill. Breakfast is amazing, with omelet station and plenty of food. Staff is super nice.
