    We had a fantastic stay at a charming hostel in a great location. The highlight of our trip was when Gigi, one of the hosts, personally showed us around town late at night to find a place to eat. It was incredibly thoughtful and made us feel like part of the family. The hostel was clean, had a beautiful terrace, and even had cute cats roaming around. We also appreciated the flexibility with early check-in and late check-out. we had a wonderful time and highly recommend this place.

    I felt right at home at Punta Huanchaco hostel. The owners, Gigi and Dario, were incredibly welcoming and kind. They made sure I had everything I needed and gave great advice on what to do in town. The hostel was clean and well-maintained, with a fully equipped kitchen and free coffee and tea available all day. The location was perfect, just seconds away from the beach, and they even had a board rack and outside shower for surfers. a great place to stay if you want a calm and friendly atmosphere.

    No complaints. 😊

    My stay at Punta was exceptional. From the moment I arrived, I was warmly welcomed by the friendly staff. They made me feel like family and were always ready to help. The hostel had a fully equipped kitchen, which was perfect for preparing my own meals. I also loved the convenience of having a store nearby for fresh fruits and vegetables. The hot showers and comfortable beds provided the perfect relaxation after a long day. Additionally, the hostel's proximity to the main surf point was a big plus for me. I can't think of a single negative thing to say about this place. I highly recommend Punta for a wonderful stay in Huanchaco.

    The location of the hostel was ideal, nestled in a quiet residential area near the city center. The cleanliness of the hostel was exceptional, with all areas, including the rooms and kitchen, being spotless. The availability of hot showers was also a great advantage. Despite the limited capacity, the hostel was spacious and provided ample communal areas and rooms. the staff here were incredibly friendly and helpful, going above and beyond to make sure guests felt welcome and accommodated.

    One downside of the hostel was the occasional lack of running water at night due to limited storage capacity. This could be inconvenient when guests needed to use the facilities during those hours.

The owners, Gigi and Dario, were incredibly welcoming and made me feel right at home. The hostel was clean and comfortable, with beautiful communal areas to relax in. I loved that they provided free coffee and tea, and the shower was absolutely amazing! The hostel is also in a quieter part of town, so it was really peaceful at night.

    The hosts, Gigi and Dario, made me feel like part of their family from the moment I arrived. They were incredibly helpful and went above and beyond to ensure a great stay. The hostel was spotlessly clean, the kitchen well-equipped, and the atmosphere was fantastic. They even organized special activities like a surf trip and a barber visit. I didn't want to leave and can't wait to come back.

    I can wholeheartedly recommend this hotel.

    The hosts, Gigi and Dario, were incredibly welcoming and treated us like family. They gave us great recommendations for surf lessons and local restaurants. The hostel had a great vibe, with kind and respectful guests. It was very clean, spacious, and comfortable. The kitchen was well-equipped, including an espresso machine. The wifi was always strong. The cats and Pepa, their adorable dog, added to the charm of the place. Gigi helped organize our transportation from Lima.

    The beds could be more comfortable, as they sank in the middle during the night. The showers weren't always hot.

    I definitely got my money's worth at this hostel. The room was top-notch - clean, spacious, and comfortable. The location was perfect, right in front of the main surf break. But what really stood out was how the staff treated me like family. Gigi and Dario were so welcoming and friendly, always willing to help and give recommendations. They made my stay feel like a second home.

    The only suggestion I have for breakfast offerings is to maybe add some more variety. Other than that, everything was great!

    We had an exceptional stay at this hostel. The dorms were nice and the owner, Dario, was super friendly and made us feel like part of the hostel family. The kitchen was well-equipped and clean, perfect for cooking meals. The hostel had a relaxed and easy vibe, perfect for a holiday. The hosts, Gigi and Dario, were extremely nice and helpful, providing information and even organizing activities like surf trips. The hostel had a beautiful outdoor space where we could chill out and chat with other guests. The room was spacious and the bathroom had a nice shower. The hostel was also very clean, with daily cleaning. we felt at home here and would definitely come back.

    The only negative aspect we experienced was that there was no mention of any specific facilities or advantages in the reviews, which would have been helpful for potential guests.

    The staff at this hostel were incredibly pleasant and helpful throughout our stay. They were always available to provide assistance and advice. The hostel itself had beautiful terraces and open spaces that were comfortable and provided a nice airy atmosphere. I also loved the fact that they had 6 cats roaming around, which added a touch of charm to the place. Additionally, the hostel was committed to recycling, which I found to be a great feature.

    There were a few minor issues during our stay. we found that there was a lack of toilet rolls, which was a bit inconvenient.

    Experienced the best New Year's celebration with amazing hosts who make you feel like family. Loved the fully equipped kitchen for cooking meals and convenient store nearby. The hot showers and comfy beds were a dream. Will definitely return!

    Just be careful if you have cat allergies as there are beautiful cats on the property. Unfortunately, had to leave early due to asthma flare-ups.

    We absolutely loved our stay at this hostel! Gigi and Dario made us feel like family and the relaxed atmosphere was perfect for young holiday goers. The outdoor space was beautiful and the perfect spot to chill out and meet fellow guests. The spacious room and nice shower in the bathroom were a bonus. The hostel was also home to six adorable cats that added to the cozy vibe. The best part was the excellent WiFi, the best we've had in South America during our 3-month trip. We would definitely choose this hostel again!

    Felt very lucky, no complaints.

    I recently stayed at a hostel in Huanchaco and let me tell you, it was incredible. From the moment I stepped foot inside, I felt right at home. The location was perfect, just a short walk away from the beach and conveniently close to grocery shops and restaurants. The hostel itself was impeccably clean and it was clear that the owners took great care of it. The best part was the warm and friendly owners, who went above and beyond to make my stay memorable. They were so accommodating and made me feel like part of their family. I couldn't have asked for better hosts. I had an amazing experience at this hostel and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Huanchaco.
