B&Bs in Portobelo

Amenities, location and staff

The staff was super friendly and attentive, especially Iris. She was always willing to make my stay the best and always gave me useful tips about the town and things to do in it with a contagious positive vibe. The back porch was incredible. It was 15-20 steps away from the seashore. They had a shared kitchen with everything you need to prepare your own meals if needed.

We stayed in the hostel for one night before our 6 days sailing trip from Puerto Lindo to Cartagena. It's a nice place for backpackers close to the shops and restaurants - they have a big hand made map on the wall which shows all the spots around the village with a walking duration. The closest restaurant - Casa X - is about 10 minutes by walk and the Linton Bay Marina port is about 25 - 30 minutes by walk. The place isn't very touristy and it can be difficult to get there if you don't have a car. We arrived by bus from Portobelo but there aren't any visible bus stops so we asked the driver to stop in front of the hostel. You won't find a schedule on the internet so you always have to ask locals about the transportation (we found the bus schedule written on board in the Casa X restaurant). Taxi is very expensive and you will hardly find an Uber in this area. The hostel itself was very quiet and clean with friendly staff and delicious breakfast and I really liked they provided shampoo and shower gel. Rooms are clean and big enough to feel comfortable, there are fans so you don't feel too hot during the day and the kitchen is well furnished. If you are looking for a place to stay in Puerto Lindo and you are backpacker on the budget I definitely recommend to choose Hostel Wunderbar.

The pool was great to cool down after a busy day. It's in an outstanding condition. Optional breakfast was great and there is a possibility to order dinner.

A wonderful place to be. With a lovely staff, above all Luzmilla :)))
