Had great time chilling out in Nayland for 12 days. Met lots of nice people. Very relaxed place. They have a kitchen to use, place for camping, dorms, private rooms. The restaurant is not the best though. Beware of the turtles that will try to sneak into your bedroom anytime you leave the door open. And will probably wake you... More

This hostal is at the north end of Huanchaco beach - where it is quieter (or almost deadly quiet in low-season). We liked the location (still only a 10-minute-walk towards the center) and the simply furnished but very clean room in the back part of the hostel. The verandas back there are very nice (spectacular sunset!), also the courtyard with... More

My 6 month Ecuador visa was expiring so made a run to Peru with four friends who have been to Huanchaco and the Naylamp. Stayed for five nights in room 18, very happy. Nice place, well managed, friendly, and almost everybody speaks some degree of English, which was helpful as the limited Spanish I picked up in Ecuador doesn't come... More

I was going to stay for about 4 days but between the hostel and the vibe of the town I was there for 17 days. I loved it in Huanchaco and this hostel. Clean rooms, hot showers, nice people, good restuarant, super nice staff. I became friends with a lot of the staff during my stay. The things I didn{t... More

I second a lot of what has been said here already. Clean comfortable rooms, very friendly staff, best hot water and water pressure I've had in 7 months of traveling. Good restaurant. Nice vibe. Over all we had a very good 13 days of staying here. HOWEVER! The kitchen up at the camping area is disgusting. We used it because... More

Offered nice and affordable rooms with a great setup. The restaurant onsite has good pizza and will even deliver food/beverages to your room. If at all possible, try and get one of the rooms on the second level/back of the hostel. These are a little quieter and offer a nicer view. I also enjoyed that this is a little bit... More

I hate to write negative reviews but I felt that the staff needs to do something about the noise curfew. We intended to stay for 5 nights and left after 2 because of the noise level of other guests. We stayed in the second part of the hotel, in a room that cost about 30US. We were fine with the... More

clean rooms, good food and a very nice atmosphere, friendly staff and a great value, I would surely recommend it . the actually beaches here are rather dirty but if you like to surf and relax it is a perfect stopping point for a night or two......

I stayed at Naylamp for 5 nights (1 in a dorm room and 4 in a single room). Both rooms were great value for money, clean and spacious. My single room had amazing views of the ocean, a clean bathroom & good shower. Only complaint about the room was that the cable reception was fuzzy and almost unwatchable. The communal... More
