Somos

Just up the street from their restaurant and surf shop The Somos Café, and a 2-minute walk to the beach, this eclectic surf hotel offers accommodations for a range of travelers, from backpackers to those who want the privacy of their own digs. The rooms are defined by lots of woodwork and natural light. They’re quite sleek for the price and some add small terraces. Even the dorm rooms are far above average, with pod-like beds and chic bathrooms. There’s a chilled out common lounge on the ground floor beside the small but inviting pool, though the majority of the amenities are over at the café.
