    The staff was amazing and very helpful during my stay. The pool was a great amenity to have, especially to cool off in the hot weather. Additionally, there were plenty of seating areas where I could relax and hang out. The common fridge was handy, although it was often quite full.

    The bed and pillows were not very comfortable, as the pillows were lumpy and the bed was unstable. Furthermore, the breakfast, although it was pancakes, became repetitive after a few days.

    Located just a short walk away from the beach, this cozy spot provided the perfect escape for a romantic getaway. The laid-back vibe and friendly hosts made us feel immediately welcomed. Plus, the on-site mini market and nearby fruteria made it super convenient to grab snacks and drinks whenever we wanted.

    That the beach where we wanted to surf was a bit further away. It took us about 30 minutes on foot to reach our favorite surfing spot, which was a bit of a walk.

    While staying at Villa Vento Surf, we were pleasantly surprised by the laid back vibe and cool location. The double room we stayed in was clean, spacious, and comfortable. The bathrooms were also in decent condition. The mini market attached to the hostel was a great convenience, offering a good selection of affordable groceries. The big communal kitchen was a highlight, as there weren't many places to eat in the area. We enjoyed the included breakfast of make-your-own pancakes, and the cheap beers were a nice bonus. The hostel is conveniently located close to the town beach and within walking distance of everything on the main street of Santa Catalina. Despite a few minor drawbacks, overall I would recommend this hostel.

The room was clean, comfortable, and a good size. The hostel had a nice pool and social area. The breakfast was simple but delicious, and the kitchen was well-equipped. The convenience store attached to the hostel was a bonus. The staff, including Steven and his mother, were incredibly nice. it was one of the best hostels I've stayed at.

    I had a fantastic weekend at this hostel! The atmosphere was so friendly and I had the chance to meet people from all over the world. The kitchen was amazing, with everything I needed to cook delicious meals. Plus, there was a store right there and plenty of nearby eateries. The best part was the opportunity to mingle with people from different backgrounds and have a blast.

    While the room was spacious and comfortable, I wish there were more hangers or shelves to organize my belongings. The cleaning could have been better, but it wasn't a major issue.

    Had an awesome Christmas there! Enjoyed connecting with other travelers and the hostel offered delicious pancakes for breakfast. the big kitchen made it easy to cook meals and the supermarket next door was handy. the location was perfect, just a short walk to the beach. Also loved the option to book trips and shuttles at the reception.

    The neighbor's rooster decided to crow in the middle of the night, which was a bit annoying. the hostel lacked a good atmosphere and the kitchen closed abruptly at night, leaving guests without food options.
