Hostal Merlin Surfing Lodge

Merlin Hostal was much more like staying with a friend, rather than at a hostel. We were encouraged to treat the home like it was our own. You are given no cost selection of the home (kitchen, living room, patio, etc) which makes for a comfortable relaxing atmosphere. The beds were the greatest that we had slept in since arriving in Peru! The owner, John, was a wealth of knowledge about the area and the breaks. His really like of the area was apparent at the same time as his dedication to making sure we had the greatest time possible. He even went out of his way to walk us downtown for a short tour/intro to the area. Being that we were weary travelers, the &'hostal&' was a ideal place to slow down, relax and enjoy all that Punta Hermosa had to offer. I would definitely go back.

Johnny&'s a real nice guy who went to all lengths to help me out. He showed me around the local area, showed the surf breaks, helped me rent a board, assisted me with my lack of Spanish. His spot is a home stay with 3 rooms in total, I think he has 6 beds all up. My room was neat and tidy and the spot in general was clean. I enjoyed cooking food at &"home&" and having a good chat with John.
