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.

Good vibe, chilled and relaxed atmosphere, good breakfast, nice staff at the entire place. If you are to relax and chill down, head there. They have on-site Spanish teacher with very reasonable pricing. Owner super fair, I needed to move earlier than booked (on non-refundable reservation) however I received my money back for one night as soon as they find someone who took my previously booked room. It’s not the money itself, but super fair attitude that needs to be noted. Finally I stayed there 2 nights only but already felt like home and as if I knew the crew since ages.

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!

Amazing place, right at the beach and close to Montanita center, but still quiet at night. Gloria is a fantastic host, very friendly and happy to help. Rooms are super clean and in good condition incl. A/C and hot water. There is an outdoor kitchen with everything you need, a pool table and a pool from where you can watch Iguanas in the trees.

Absolutely great place to stay with amazing staff! Super chilled, with direct access to the beach and very spacious as well (swimming pool, volleyball pitch, bar, social space). Audrey and Maxime are super friendly and helpful! You can order food or do your laundry there with good prices and no stress 🙌🏻 Hostel is based in some distance from the town but taxi cost almost nothing there - so if you want to have a night out and party it’s super easy to do!
