Tucked into the rainforest, this hostel is surrounded by beautiful, peaceful nature, and the facilities are comfortable and well maintained. There are hidden pools and waterfalls close by 😍 The Wi-Fi is strong and reliable, which is a real plus out here. It’s affordable, and free coffee and tea are available. The shared kitchen is open from 6:00 AM to 9:00 PM, so it’s easy to make your own meals. A quiet, budget-friendly place with comfort and a good connection.

I had a lovely stay at this idyllic hostel in the jungle. Great atmosphere, nice people, and wonderful owners. A few things could use replacing, though. The outdoor pillows and seats are old, dirty, and coming apart, and the dorm mattress is so worn I could feel the wood underneath. Apart from that, it was very nice.

The terrace and all the little details around the place are amazing. The shared spaces, kitchen, and bathrooms were clean, and the owners and staff were helpful and friendly, with good activity tips. The rooms are open, so there’s less privacy than in some places, but they’re comfortable and quiet enough for a good night’s sleep. I had a wonderful stay and would definitely recommend it.

The bungalow is full of charm and character, and you can see how much thought and care went into its feel and details. It’s peaceful, too. Julie is the sweetest host, and the staff made us feel very welcome.

With jungle all around and birds and animals as the soundtrack, Hostel Cascada Verde has a stunning setting and views. It’s the best hostel I’ve stayed at in Costa Rica. The host was friendly and welcoming, and the laid-back backpacker atmosphere was just what we loved. There are plenty of pleasant shared spaces, and everything, including the kitchen, was spotless and well cared for. Lots of small touches made the stay cozy and comfortable. I highly recommend it.
