Located in Dos Brazos, Bolita Trails and Lodging features a garden and a bar. The hostel provides both free WiFi and free private parking.

Guests at the hostel will be able to enjoy activities in and around Dos Brazos, like hiking. I came as a guest and decided to stay as a volunteer. I sincerely enjoyed my time soaking in the nature and wildlife. There is so much hiking you can do, I recommend staying at least a few nights to enjoy it thoroughly. A special thanks to Ron the owner for his kindness and the other volunteers and guests for a beautiful experience. I look forward to coming again!

Choose between our cozy dorms or private rooms, all designed with your comfort in mind. You’ll have access to a shared kitchen, chillout spaces, and opportunities to meet travelers from around the world. An absolutely spectacular experience. The private rooms are super comfortable and have everything you need. It’s just steps from the beach and packed with all kinds of fun group activities. I was a solo traveler, and Roie—the awesome community manager—made sure I had the best time. He brought me into the group and made sure I didn’t miss a single thing: dinners, parties, painting sessions, day tours. Can’t recommend it enough!
