Heel fijn hostel, goede sfeer, hele vriendelijke eigenaresse en het eten is echt heerlijk!
De voorzieningen in de keuken zouden beter kunnen, is heel summier.

I love the private rooms with the matisse painting, private bathroom, and tiny little outdoor seating area.
There is a great ceiling fan, high quality linen and strong airco. The property can a lovely pool, strong wifi, and delicious food served throughout the day.
I enjoy staying here everytime, this was my 4th visit.

Really good vibe at the hostel, and really nice staff.
The water and electricity weren't working sometimes.

We came here to do our open water dive certificate. The planing and communication from the hostal to organise this was top from the beginning. The full property is really nice and well thought trough. The food in the restaurant is super good and we loved that they have so many vegetarian options. Perfect for us was also the separat kitchen to cook for ourselves. The pool and hammocks were amazing to spend the hot afternoons as well as the upstairs bar with pool table. All rooms have air conditioning which makes the night much more comfortable.

The rooms have AC, which is great for a good sleep. The vibe is chill, I recommend it if you want to get your PADI or SDI. They offer the course with Reef Shepherd, which is cheaper than other schools!
The kitchen was dirty, and not well equipped. Also, the girls at the reception were very loud, one of them entered into our room without knocking at the door first. A bit annoying overall.

All the staff were great, even when I came back the 2nd time they remembered me and were super helpful. Food was great. Room was great. You can do your own thing or meet guests and staff - super good place

Super friendly staff! Great place to meet new people and to hang out in the community areas. Everything is very well organised and the staff is always available if you have any questions. It‘s just a short walk to the beach but not right in the center so it is very quiet at night.

Over $500 in goods were stolen from our locked room while we were away at Tayrona. The owner was not helpful at all and provided zero support for us. She basically just blamed us and insisted we must have just lost the items somewhere else. In fact she insisted many times that this has never happened before but there are other reviews from people who claimed the same thing happened to them!!
DO NOT STAY HERE UNLESS YOU WANT YOUR THINGS STOLEN
5.0
the design of the place is great and also a very cool vibe. also I had a great lunch here from the restaurant and I thoroughly enjoyed the cocktails. the hostel organised for me to join the divers with my snorkel. I saw some amazing marine life.
Nothing I didn’t like - it’s a cool place. In general maybe Tanganga could do with some better roads but that’s more of a general infrastructure issue with the whole of Taganga.

Super friendly, lovely setup with the pool central to the hostel. Bar was great and food at we incredible. The cleaning staff were very thorough and famr in every day which was fantastic. Great to have an ensuite as well!
There were lots of ants, some in my bed when I arrived and sadly I was in a non-aircon room. I was sick the first night which was really hard when it was so hot, but after that the lack of aircon wasn't too much of an issue!
3.5
Food from the restaurant is amazing, good backpacker atmosphere in general.
One of the most uncomfortable hostel I had in a very long time. I got a 4 bed dorm when I booked a 6 bed one that looked spacious enough on picture. There was barely no space so 2 of us slept with our backpack on the beds. When one person moves, the 3 other beds move as well. Not to mention the neighborhood music that is blasting on purpose at an unbelievably high volume at random hours nights and days. I think to bother the guests and the hostel on purpose. (not slept in 3 nights with music starting at 6am or blasting until 3am). I do not understand the ratings that does not reflect much my experience there.

Clean place with a nice staff. Big up for the pool table!

Lovely and helpful staff and owners, great community in the hostel. Very easy to meet people hanging around the pool and restaurant area after diving sessions. Tasty food in the restaurant. Coconut lemonade in the bar is excellent.
4.0
This hostel was in a nice area of Taganga on the hill. The staff were quite nice. The shared areas include a pool, hamac areas and pool table that we enjoyed.
The decor could use a little refresh. There was loud music till about 11pm so it was hard to sleep (though this seems to be the norm all over Colombia).

Wow! talk about an amazing hostel! Honestly it’s more like a mini resort. What a fabulous team of people that work here, and make you feel like you just came home. Super friendly staff, a swimming pool, a restaurant with fabulous food, an upstairs bar with pool table, a great breeze and nice view. lots of good space to hang out too. Our room had AC and a comfy bed. super clean and well laid out hostel. the owner Lucy and her team of staff and volunteers run a well organized hostel.
there was nothing to not like.
5.0
One of the best hostel/guesthouses that I have ever stayed in. The whole place is very efficient and run well. Everyone knows their job and does it flawlessly. The dinners are excellent! Lucy is the personable proprietor and takes very good care of the guests.
The internet is insufficient, but that’s true throughout the whole town.

Really enjoyed my stay in Divanga! Great social vibe, lots of backpackers. The hostel manager and the staff are very nice and helpful, there's a nice pool, a good bar to chill at with a billiard table, and a great restaurant in the hostel. Very much recommended!

The bartender is really friendly and down to earth also fun to play pool with. Great drinks. The swimming pool was very nice a great too just chill in. It has a guest kitchen that is fully equipped
Some of the staff(reception) was a bit too serious, killed the vibe, not very friendly. The food is good but a bit too expensive.
The room I had only had the ceiling fan turned on and it was like a sauna even with the windows open.
5.0
I was supposed to stay for a week, I stayed for three weeks.
Divanga became my new home in Colombia.
The hostel is ideally located, quiet and the meals, breakfast, lunch and dinner are incredible.
The hostel is big enough to meet people, without being a backpacker factory. It really feels like home.
Ideal for backpackers, couples or groups of friends.
The diving centre in partnership with Divanga is top notch.
Thanks to Lucie and Lola, for their welcome and their availability, to each of my requests.
Thanks to all the staff, in the kitchen, cleaning, maintenance, reception for their kindness.
Especially thanks to my friends Alexis, the best bartender in Colombia and Caro for these 3 weeks.
