I had a wonderful stay here. Even though the weather wasn't on my side, and I was the only guest in the hotel for the duration of my stay, I still really enjoyed it. The staff were so friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. I'd definitely stay here again.

Casa surf Arrels is a great spot to relax, away from the hustle and bustle of Montañita. It's located in a quiet area, just a 10-minute walk from the beach. The rooms are spotless with comfortable beds, and the kitchen is fully equipped for cooking. The place is run by a friendly and laid-back family who are always around if you need anything. Highly recommended for a chill and comfortable stay!

A beautiful and relaxing place to stay. The location was just stunning, with access directly onto the beach. Although it’s a little bit out from the main town of Montañita, it’s so easy to get in either via a 2 minute taxi or very pleasant walk along the beach. It’s also a short walk to the town of Manglaralto which has anything you might need - nice/affordable local restaurants, grocery shops, markets, etc. Pablo was a great host, and even helped us gain our Open Water Diving Certificate while we were there!!

I liked it, the hotel has a nice garden, the rooms are comfortable, all the furniture in teak wood and fast internet. It was what I was looking for, a quiet place within walking distance to the beach. The managers Susan and Ruben are very charismatic people.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
