The property was large and had a lot to offer. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Less than a 10 min walk to shops and restaurants. Felt safe walking around the area
Great place close to nature and lots of space to hang out at the hotel, which was cozy. Also had breakfast which was pretty decent for a fair price. Only like 10 min walk to the beach and downtown, making it quite

Beach was clean and the views from the were good. Hotel staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel was very clean.
A pleasant and very clean family run hostel / small hotel with nice grounds and good amenities. We enjoyed our stay but unfortunately had a problem with mosquitoes. The owners kindly gave us a mosquito spray which helped us.
We particularly liked our bedroom which had a balcony with hammock. Lovely sunsets from the balcony looking out over the sea.
We would happily stay again.
El Hostel cumple con todo lo que promete, La casa es muy acogedora, tiene todo lo necesario para la estadía. Muy organizado. Ofrecen comidas y bebidas , un menú limitado y práctico pero funciona. Todo es hecho con amor. Son muy esmerados, siempre pendientes. Mil gracias. Recomendado. Para viaje en pareja. O en grupos.
Juan etait absolument adorable. Il m'a donne beaucoup d'information. Il a pris le temps de venir me reconduire après ses heures de travail. Endroit tres sécuritaire et tranquille, propre, près de tout. Je suis resté une journée supplémentaire. Excellant choix et très abordable.
Super endroit pour séjourner.
La propriétaire est sympatique et parle anglais.
Tranquille un peu en dehors à 10 minutes à pied de la plage.
Lit un peu dur.
Sehr schöne große Anlage mit Pool, Aufenthaltsbereiche, Tischtennisplatte, Restaurant und Küche zum selbst kochen. Tolles großes Zimmer mit eigenem Bad mit 2 Ventilatoren an der Decke. Sehr freundliches Personal, gibt gute Auskunft zu Touren und Aktivitäten. Das WiFi war leider oft nicht so gut und Netz gab es nur in bestimmten Bereichen.
The common areas are very Zen. Comfortable seating areas. Many choices to have a serene quiet space or a space to meet and visit with others. Loved the Hammocks and the foliage. Staff super helpful. A nice walk down to town. Taganga people are friendly and helpful. The only down at night the dogs bark. A lot . They changed my room away from the road and I slept 🛏 really good Highly recommend this Hostel.

I highly suggest paying your tours directly with the hostel and not the guy that picks you up to bring you to the beaches . We weren't advised to pay at the hostel so we thought the tour was seperate and paid the guy who then said we never paid him. So just a heads up. Other then that, our stay was good:)

Very cute hostel at the top of the hill. Brilliant views for sunset and tons of hammocks to soak up the seaside breeze.

Nice hostel and staff
Bathrooms have no warm water, many spots in the room from them mosquitos get inside and it is very annoying. The area is nice, nice breakfast, nice staff.
Casa de Felipe is a wonderful place with many places to chill out, read a book, enjoy the view or relax in a hammock. It is spacious, so it never feels crowded. The dorms have good beds and comfortable matresses. The bathroom could be cleaned little better, but it is not really disturbing. The breakfast is great, many options and very friendly staff.
Lovely looking hostel with friendly staff. The fan in my room was too loud to sleep under so we had the two of us sharing a single bed under the better fan. There was weirdly enough space for us though so no complaints.The hammock right outside the room was a nice touch. If you're looking for a quiet night sleep though, try somewhere else. There is a cockerel nearby that starts off around midnight (no joke) and there's a place next door that plays loud loud music on Saturday nights way past 5am

Very friendly staff with a great tour desk. Food at the restaurant was great (the fillet mignon was incredible). The hostel is very spacious with good outdoor space
Only downside was the lack of mosquito protection

We stayed here for New Years and it was expensive and not worth it cost. I am not sure if it was for the date but I felt it was very over price for what you grt. THE ROOM we were given was located right next to the restaurant and cafeteria area so the room smell like food and it was very noisy and difficult to sleep properly. In addition, the room was not too good, had no air conditioner nor tv. I wouldn't stay here again or recommend it.
Es un hostal súper acogedor. Limpio y con buenas instalaciones! La cocina de Daniel, el restaurante que está dentro del hostal es espectacular! La comida deliciosa! Edgar, quien atiende el bar es muy querido! A mi me encantó!
