Below you’ll find a list of hostels that we know will take the best possible care of you and your travel needs in Costa Rica, Panama, Mexico and Nicaragua.
Not a hostel, and located in Sayulita, Mexico, La Casona is another creation from Storm, Courtney Bialy and Hana Waxman. La Casona is more of an up scale hotel, but we wanted to share this with everyone in case they ever make it up to beautiful Sayulita, Mexico.
From the twisted minds that brought you Mondo Taitu and Hostel Heike in Bocas del Toro, Luna’s Castle is, bar-none, the best backpacker spot in Panama City. Housed in a creaky, colonial mansion near the water’s edge, Luna’s Castle blends historic Spanish architecture with funky, laid-back backpacker vibes. Although it’s the newest accommodation in the capital, the owner’s winning formula of professional service, international atmosphere and shoestring prices are sure to make this a legendary stop on the Gringo Trail.
Long rated one of the best hostels in Panama, Hostel Mamallena should be your choice for a hostel in Panama City. One of the only hostels in Panama City in a large colonial style house, this is where you will get to experience the real Panama. Perejil(Close to La Exposicion in the Lonely Planet) was once one of the most upmarket areas of Panama City, now it’s a middle class area with tree lined streets and a peaceful atmosphere.
Bambu Hostel is located in David, Panama. David is a frequent stopping point for travelers heading to Boquete, Bocas del Toro, Panama City if your heading south, or a stopover point if you’re heading north to Costa Rica.
Bambu is a Backpackers resort with a deluxe in-ground pool and Mayan-Style rancho bar and landscaped garden. Located in a safe middle class neighborhood in the San Mateo District of David-City, Panama. We welcome Backpackers and International Travelers from all corners of the world. Gregg Lapkin, seasoned traveler and hostel owner will personally greet you and make you feel at home. Don’t believe everything you read in the guidebooks. David is fun! It has everything that a weary traveler could need to recharge the batteries, fine dining, casinos, movie theatres, inexpensive shopping, world class nightclubs and discos, festivals, and, within 45 minutes, awesome mountains, oceans and Costa Rica. Come stay with us at Bambu, relax in the garden, swing on a hammock with a cold beer in the rancho bar, dip in the pool and watch the tropical birds flying in the backyard. We have very few rules here, just come with a good attitude and have fun.
Mondo Taitu is a landmark in Bocas del Toro. A long time destination on the Central American backpacker circuit, “The Mondo” is legendary for it’s atmosphere and being the social center for travelers visiting Bocas del Toro on Panama’s Caribbean Coast.
I added some pics from their “super heroes” party, and the “foil” party. The girl with the mask, actually got arrested that night for wearing the Panamanian flag as part of her costume.
Solo Bueno is a surf hostel nestled within the jungle at Playa Guiones, near Nosara, on the Nicoya Peninsula. The hostel attracts an international crowd of travelers interested in surfing, music, art, yoga, and the pura vida vibe of Costa Rica.
I’m proud to say I designed their new logo.
