We arrived with our 2 sons in mid the lock down on the way back to the airport PTY. Great hosting of Orlanda. Map of expedia is not correct and need to be updated.

Fantastiskt läge med närhet till strand, mataffärer och restauranger. Trevlig personal, mysig uteplats, praktiskt utekök och mycket fågelkvitter.

Buen lugar en Farallón.
Lo mejor fueron Florencia, Marcos y Emiliano encargados del Hostal. La habitación es amplia y cómoda pero no hay agua caliente y, como los otros hostales de la zona, no tiene TV. Està en la calle principal y a metros de la playa. Hay minimercados y para comer cerca. Lo que no me gustó no tiene que ver con el hostal sino con el lugar: después de las 21 no hay donde ir a tomar ni comer nada. Está en Farallón y no en Playa Blanca.

Simple, de base et accueillant.
Endroit simple mais très sympathique. Décoration gaie et cuisine avec l'équipement pour se faire à manger. Toutefois douche minuscule et eau froide seulement.
Vincent Luc, 1-night trip

Simply nice.
A nice hostel. it is quite literally a 30 second walk from the beach - if you walk slowly! A nice touch having breakfast included in the morning and having use of the kitchen throughout the day - we were able to keep costs down. There's a mini supermarket, 2 doors away. We had a room with private bathroom - the bathroom could do with some maintenance. But all in all, we enjoyed our stay here. It is a backpackers hostel, not a hotel - just bear that in mind.

Honorable adresse en bord de mer
Attention adresse mal recensée. Cet établissement n'est pas à Malena mais 10 kms plus au Nord à Playa Reina.
