This was probably my favorite hostel in all of Ecuador. The location is perfect. Close enough, but far enough from the noise. The breakfast was good and the coffee was lovely. This family run hostel deserves it's #1 spot on trip advisor. Water was always hot and the views from the balcony are amazing. I will always remember the times... More

Good location and the front rooms have terrific views, but the rooms are somewhat crummy (torn screens, very cheap furnishings, and below-average beds. The hotel is set in a quiet location just a few minutes walk from downtown, is right on the beach, and features hammocks on balconies and in a shaded area in front of the hotel - all... More

We spent a few days at the Kundalini and were not disappointed. This place is in the perfect spot. Close to town but far enough away to avoid the the bar and music noise. On the beach and a great value for money.

My wife and I spent a week here after reading a number of nice reviews. One needs to consider the age of the reviewers when making decisions regarding creature comforts. My son and his friend, both 22, loved this place, however, my wife and I, both in our 50's were less enthralled. It brings back memories of dorm living. Crowded... More

I loved this spot. Not only where the prices great $15 for a single bungalow, 20 ft from the beach, you have HOT water, good water pressure, clean room service everyday, its safe and quite. They have bunkbed rooms for folks traveling w friends and its a bit off the hidden path, so the fun nights and noises are right... More

Our room and bathroom was small and minimal, but had a great balcony facing the ocean (semi-private), with hammocks to relax in all day- so it was still a good value. The location is just past the noisy club and bar area, so all you can hear is the sound of the ocean waves. It was also easy to find... More

I stayed at Kundalini for a week while attending spanish school in Montanita and it was one of the highlights of my stay there. Firstly, I should explain that Montanita was not my kind of place - just a bit too focused on the partying for me at this age (in my early 30s). Ten years ago, would've loved the... More

Kundalini's location is defenitely best location in Town. Although it is close to nightlife a great night sleep is secure. Some rooms have a beautiful ocean view where sunset can be seen just from your own bed! I would defenitly go back! Breakfast is served on a nice terraze surround by a garden. Be aware to book in advance, Kundalini... More

Having stayed in many mant hostels around the world they all seem the same after a while, but this one is different. We had a fantastic time at Hostal Kundalini, the location is perfect, so close to all the nightlife but just far enough away to have a peaceful sleep! The hostal is relaxing, friendly, clean, the breakfasts are delicious... More
