The garden was beautiful and I really enjoyed to sit on the terrace and listen animals voices. Shared kitchen was great. In the bungalow there was lot of space.

The most wonderful and magical place to stay on the island if you are a nature lover. The place is great, in the middle of the jungle, the staff are wonderful, food is so tasty. They organise daily activities such as yoga, cacao ceremonies, permaculture tour etc. It’s a eco sustainable place, japanease showers, and know that you are surrounded by nature, so it is what it is, if you look for a fancy place it’s not here, but if you look for authenticity, to learn from Chris the owner who is super knowledgeable and grow everything here, it’s the place. Great vibe! Beds are confortable and clean- they have muskito nets you have to use :-) I highly recommend, and I am definitely coming

One of the most beautiful places I’ve stayed during my visit. You’re really in the jungle, in between the cacao trees with an exceptional view on the lake. All the vegan food I ate in the restaurant was delicious. Also the service was great, I’ve met Engel, one of the receptionists. He was so friendly and always happy to help or give you some tips to discover the island. Very grateful to have met him!

The friendly staff, the bar atmosphere and the good food. I also love the pod beds with privacy curtains and they actually provide a USBC cable in the beds which was helpful because I left my charger in the last hostel I stay in!

All hostels in Balgue

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.

    An amazing hostel, with the friendliest and most helpful staff and lovely chill vibes. Super clean and comfortable, this is definitely the best hostel on Ometepe Island and I would recommend it to everyone :) They have a well-equipped kitchen to cook in and a tasty menu - try the salad bowl and the crepes they are soooo tasty! There is a cosy hammock chill out space too.

    Very nice hostel in a great location. The kitchen has everything you need and gets cleaned daily. The upstairs hangout area is comfortable and spacious. I used it for my yoga practice and just put two hammocks down to have a bit more space. The owners are very friendly and answer any question you might have.
