I loved the pool, the bar, the comfortable bed and the sense of community in the hostel. I can’t wait to get back to Puerto Escondido!

Nothing

The location is a bit ‘farther’ away but that is what I liked most, not a lot of tourists, mexican prices for food :D and the nicest beach (Carrizalillo) is only 15 minutes walking. The hostel itself has a great vibe, the pool is amazing and the drinks are delicious. The breakfast is kind of basic, but nutritional :)

I had an awesome time in Nopalero hostal. The staff made me feel at home directly and that is really important to me. The vibe was amazing and I met loads of nice people here. The location is perfect between the beach and the centre. And if you don't feel like doing something during the day you can easily chill the whole day in and around the pool. There are great activities every day but the ones where we cooked with the whole hostel i liked the most.

Amazing kitchen, comfy and private beds with ac, great outdoor area, good vibes. It will be even better when they open the pool.

Maybe a fit far, but colectivos are close by and super cheap.

Good chill place to hang out out and never leave, very nice people - watch out for Karaoke nights :)

The staff are brilliant and do lots of activities you get included in, such as parties, beach volleyball, yoga, karaoke. It's not a party hostel it's very chill, which is what I like, but they do throw parties with their sister hostel puerto dreams so you can still party while still having a quiet place to sleep and relax when needed. The kitchen is huge so nice to cook in. And the bathrooms are clean. I stayed at another hostel during my time here but came back to Nopalero as it was alot better for the price range.

The location is further away than other hostels, but not by loads, I'd say this was the thing I liked least though, as it can get super hot to walk in, although taxis are very cheap.

Location is great because it is on a nice and calm neighborhood with lots of things around, but still quiet and chill. I like Nopalero because I get to meet new people from all around the world, beds are comfortable and price is right. Staff is super cool: Julio is a great cook and Mariana is really cool.

All good here

The atmosphere is very friendly, cultivated by the extremely inclusive and helpful members of staff. There is a WhatsApp group guests can join upon arrival which is used to advertise daily activities and encourages a communal and fun environment. Furthermore, I have had some of my best sleeps in Mexico here! This is due to the private nature of the dorm beds and air con that is activated at night. The hostel boasts a little on-site bar where events are hosted, such as karaoke - what’s not to like?? Besides this, they are currently building a pool which will be a lovely addition to the relaxed and sociable home-like community. Thank you Nopalero for a wonderful stay!

The staff and how clean it was

The air not coming on til 9pm every night. Unbearable. Left one day early

Everything was perfect, best hostel I've ever been so far. The staff is awesome, they are available and super fun which makes the experience very special so thanks to Julio, Enrique and Mariana I'm gonna really miss you. They improvise some activities (cooking together, putting karaoke, showing the playa). The place is clean and cleaned everyday. Soon they will put back the hamacs and the swimming pool. It will be awesome ! They speak a bunch of different languages, especially Marianna ! There is always music and they have excellent taste and you will discover super nice songs ! Every night we had activities, if you are alone..or a group ..or couple you should go there !

Nothing

A bit far from the beaches since it can be very hot

Nice garden. The place is 30m walking distance from the airport.

It was unbearable heat in May. And the a/c was on just at night, it was poor, not able cool the room. Slept bad there. The Wi-Fi was bad. Far away from the beach.

Nice and clean hostel with really helpful staff. 100 % recommended. Free water and coffe in the morning.

The staff are exceptional, the beds were private and the common areas were clean

The location is a bit far from the action and the area didn't feel very safe at night

The staff is amazing! Julio and Mariana were always so helpful, i had an amazing time there, special thanks for them! I loved the vibe of the hostel, relaxed and friendly.
