This was one of the worst hotel stays we have ever experienced and we travel a lot. There was not hot water in the bathroom sink, the water pressure in the shower was so bad I could not wash my hair and the bed was rock hard. It was a horrible stay.

We loved everything about this property! It has a friendly hostel feel with some very cozy hangout spaces, yoga mats to use, hammocks and a well equipped communal kitchen. The staff were amazing and very helpful. Carlos helped to organize a Sea tour for us at an affordable price. The smoothies were delicious and the sea view room we stayed in was beautiful with a hammock outside. We were a bit hesitant to book at a hostel/hotel as we were travelling with a young child and like some privacy but we all immediately felt at home. Being set back from the main road was also nice as you didn't hear the traffic noise and we slept very well in the peaceful environment. We would definitely return, hopefully soon!! I am going to miss the sunrises from the rooftop deck every morning!

Could be better

I understand we booked at a hostel but we expected something a little nicer. The place was filthy. Service was good, friendly staff and if we needed anything ie extra towels or loo roll, they were great. However I’d say the only other positives are 1. The roof terrace is a great addition to the hostel especially for sunrise in a morning! 2. The WiFi was good and 3. The beds were comfortable (which for us was a major plus). I think this hostel could benefit from a big refurb and to be honest could be a really nice place to stay if it was updated.

Not a hotel!

This is a fantastic hostel, and with a little effort might qualify as a hotel. Find some sheets and towels that aren’t threadbare and dirty looking. Have some soap in the room. Don’t advertise a breakfast that doesn’t exist. Get a dispenser for fresh water that’s not an open bottle in the grubby shared kitchen. We booked a week and lasted one night because we had hotel expectations. On a positive note, there is a coffee and smoothie bar, and there are some nice places to sit and enjoy the view.

Stayed as a couple for what started as 4 and turned into 6 nights here - in the King bed rooms and loved every minute of it. The photos don’t do the view justice, while the area calls you to adventure all day, any moment at the hostel is well spent as well. Organized, clean, delicious smoothies (we started every day with a couple browns), strong ass coffee, and just lovely overall. Would stay again :)

Perfect spot for outgoing travelers!

We had an amazing time at LVH&H. Miguel, the main host was friendly and spoke excellent english. All of the staff, Jorge, Patty, Erica etc were great. Our room was a smaller one with a queen bed and was comfy. I would probably get a king sized one next time because I travel with my husband but for the cost it was great. They have an excellent smoothie and coffee bar open every morning, and a communal kitchen that is organized and clean. We will absolutely be staying here again!

Me gusto la propiedad en general lo único que se hizo bastante irritante la cantidad de moscas y mosquitos . Como sugerencia recomiendo repelentes naturales y abanicos de exterior para auyentarlos. Por lo demás estaba todo bien.

La Ventana Hostel and Hotel: A Sultry Rendezvous w

Decades ago, my wife and I shared adventures through the hostels of Europe as wild-eyed teenagers. Fast forward to now - retirement has its comforts, but the thrill of the unexpected still beckons. Enter La Ventana. In a serendipitous escapade, we found ourselves seeking refuge from Hurricane Hillary in the quaint embrace of this Baja jewel. La Ventana Hostel isn't your typical backpacker's haunt. It's an evocative blend of nostalgia and present-day wonders. The staff? Oh, they’re not just your average employees – they're sizzling with enthusiasm, always dancing that extra mile to ensure your stay is as alluring as a Baja sunset. Our room, though simple, had that alluring touch of spiciness - impeccably clean and just right for those who appreciate the minimalist beauty. And for the nomadic soul yearning for the sea’s embrace, the beach is but a saucy, short strut away, accompanied by tantalizing food stands that seduce your senses. Driving aficionados, take note! Cruising around in your vehicle adds that dash of exhilaration, offering tempting tastes of distant beaches and hidden eateries. But the pièce de résistance? The open-air kitchen where we cooked up a storm. Literally! As Hurricane Hillary whirled outside, my wife and I, along with two brave souls from the staff, conjured a pre-hurricane feast that I dare say, might’ve given the tempest a touch of envy. La Ventana Hostel and Hotel, you're a flirty wink of an experience we didn’t know we were yearning for.

Best Hostel in all Baja, one of a kind, the place itself has a soul, it is not just bricks and a bed, you become part of it. The staff is super friendly, welcoming and helpful. Place is clean and walking distance to the beach and stores nearby. Sometimes I left things in the kitchen, common area, and nothing was ever missing.
