Very freindly enviroment with beautiful courtya

For  a solo  traveler on a budget this is a shangra la...friendly family like atmosphere with coffee shop and pizza in the same location and many smiles! Im going back its a great place!

Very friendly people and perfect place for a solo traveller on a tight budget...very old school hostel with lots of character

I was very impressed with my stay here. As an American who speaks little Spanish, the fact that there was always a core group of English-speakers with whom I could speak with around the kitchen and living room areas made my stay very “easy” and pleasurable.Many nice amenities here besides, including a regularly available fitness area with classes taught upstairs — and downstairs a patio with espresso coffee, a restaurant and live music on some evenings. A bright spot to hang out for a while in a small, charming seaside town.

After 6 days at Octopus Garden, I did not ever want to leave, but with a sweet wife, two sons and four grandkids under 6 years of age at home, I realized that it was time after a full month in Mexico. The room, while basic, was spotlessly clean, the bed comfortable, and unfailingly quiet. The young volunteers from Europe, South Ameria and other parts were exceptionally well-mannered and friendly and hard working.The kitchen produced terrific salads and meals; a wood fired pizza oven turned out great pies. Coffee drinks made to order, a gallery of native art and crafts.Good restaurants, a fine marina, pickleball courts and good swimming beaches nearby, and with easy access to PV by bus, La Cruz has it all.Yoga classes, Tai Chi, dancing, goodbye parties, and an eclectic mix of quiet dogs and cats rounded out a beautiful human experience. Aruna, the proprietress, is a study in calmness, confidence, and skill in hosting guests at the Octopus Garden! I will be back next year for sure!

This hostel is magic for the soul. The staff are all happy and helpful. The restaurant has amazing food.   They have live music some days. And it attracts a great mix of travellers both young and older.   Stay a while and make new friendships. Aruna the owner is a very special woman who does her best to help with all your needs   I highly recommend it.

Really nice atmosphere. Everyone there was nice   They have a super gooo Italian restaurant in the garden   Plenty of places to sit and read or whatever. Also they have a fabulous yoga studio

I love staying in Hostels and this was the best experience I have ever enjoyed. I had a private room and so had the luxury of an AC unit but rarely needed to turn it on. The Dorm rooms were all equipped with fans. The shared kitchen had everything you could need in the way of cooking utensils. I shared many a great meal with other guests. The staff there was so helpful and accommodating. Ruben even found a yoga mat for me to use and cleaned it for me. Aruna, the owner was so gracious and welcoming. She had run this Hostel for some 30 or 40 years and was beloved by everyone in the town. There was a beautiful studio upstairs that offered Yoga classes, Tai Chi, Salsa Lessons and many other community events so you could stay entertained without leaving the Hostel. There was also an Italian restaurant attached with the best Pizza I've ever had.They even roasted and ground their own coffee right on the premises, so it was a popular coffee spot in the morning. It felt like home because of the amazing staff there. I have already rebooked for a month next year!

Great hostel close to bus stop and just six blocks to Marina and town square. Well organized with each room having a shelf space in kitchen. Entire place is open and spacious. Private and Shared rooms. My private room was double bed with AC and a fan. Never needed the AC. Ability to do wash and hang clothes if needed. Quiet and safe. Great pizzeria in garden area for evening meal. Beer, wine and limited spirits available. Fantastic gift shop that should be visited even if not staying here. Definitely will come again if in town.
