I didn't stay here, but I ended up here three nights outta five. Its a great place to catch a sunset drink and just get out of the busy city for a while. The view is second to none and it pairs well with a fine 5yr Flor De Cana. I'm not sure if I'd like to seep here but... More

Three of us have stayed at the naked tiger for five nights and have been very pleased with our stay. They have great food, fun atmosphere, beautiful pool, and breath taking sunsets. The hostel is very clean and safe. There is loud music most of the day, and there is a party every day so be willing to have a... More

The only thing that I was really disappointed about was that I read this was a great party hostel, but when I was there it was really dead. So I had to go down into town but the shuttle service was very useful for that. I wished the shuttle was every hour instead of every 2 hours though. So the... More

I stayed for about a week at the Naked Tiger. When I first arrived I was quite impressed, it had a great view and a pool. After being there for a few days however, the image started to fall apart. The staff, who had seemed very friendly at first, fell in to their own cliche, and were quite unfriendly and... More

This is probably the best place to meet wild people and have a good time. But you have to be the right person to like it. Bores, looking for a quiet sleeping place won't like it. The location on the mountain and view are fantastic. Only drawback is that it takes 5min with the free shuttle (every 2h) to get... More

When we get here, the young staff immediately welcome us. We got a free beer just because we decided to check in. Lot of young people around here and free shuttle bus every two hours. Everything is on tab so you basically not have to pay anything until you check out. I highly recommend you to check this hostel!
