This was our favorite hostel in puerto Escondido, all the staff was very accommodating and friendly. Great vibes at all times, good party scene. They take you to lots of clubs and bars. You can rent scooters, book all kinds of tours. Staff had great food recommendations, all the rooms are very clean, we stayed in a dorm for 6 nights it was great. When we first got her we only had 2 nights booked, went to another hostel and ended up coming back for the rest of our trip. Would highly recommend if you are looking for a social hostel near the beach. Great location, many places to get food, drinks, and just to shop near by. You also must go to comedor Vicky’s, a restaurant just a minute walk up the road. Great food! Big portions, great service. We went there almost everyday! Julio is the best….

The rooms are big and clean, the beds are soft. The kitchen is a little messy, but you can handle it. Great atmosphere and amenities. The activities it was fun. All’s depends that the mode is all around A little removed from la Punta but you can rent a motorcycle or choose to walk it's like 20 minutes. It’s a good place for to be comfy and relax

Straw hut for starters is a great hostel, staff are awesome and the dorms are comfy and tidy. For anyone thinking of volunteering, be careful, there was a misunderstanding through communication, and we were placed on a shift we mentioned we could not make. After returning to the hostel willing to volunteer our free time for 2 weeks, Edir, the manager sacked us… Edir mate, either some chip is stuck on your shoulder, or you need some shrooms mate.

Great hostel, would recommend to all travellers, both solo and in a group. James in particular at the reception was extremely helpful! He made the guests extremely welcome and offered great advice. A great stay with brilliant facilities.

Unreliable review hostel great good place I like the bar and the pool. There are many rooms that are spacious and have lots of room. I will come again to this place. The bar sells cocktails and beer and other beverages that you may want to drink yes

My time at straw hat was epic.. the hostel is brand new but they are working hard to create a vibe and the place has a personality already… kudos to the staff as they are welcoming and strive to make the experience special for everyone. Thanks everyone ✌️✌️

Best hostel in Mexico by far! If you can make it there it’s an epic time. A great mix of relation and party; good for singles, couples or families. Right in between La Punta and Zicatella, it’s easy to walk everywhere but with a scooter you can go all over Puerto Escondido. You can hire at the hostel. I can’t recommend Straw Hat high enough. Just do it.
