Huge fan of this hostel! The rooms were clean and cozy, and the air conditioner in our private room was NECESSARY. But the staff and other guests definitely made our experience (and am a big fan of the newly instate happy hour)! If you’re looking for new friends and a yummy breakfast, 100% choose this hostel. Wifi didn’t handle Zoom meetings if you’re trying to cowork, as a heads up!

Davinga Hostel is a perfect place to stay while in Taganga. I had to work, and it was super easy with wifi and places to sit. At the same time my buddy had great time getting scuba certified by their recommendation. It's a very quiet and cute set up, with a great pool in the middle surrounded by hammocks and chairs. The rooms are super comfortable and bathrooms are abundant. Lastly, the staff is great! I don't know all of their names, but Lucie, Greg, and the rest of the staff are awesome. They look after you and take care of you. Also - the food is wonderful!

Absolutely incredible hostel! The staff were extremely welcoming and friendly. The facilities were great and it’s the perfect spot to do a diving course and it’s not far from Tayrona Park. I would definitely recommend!

This is a great little hostel in a charming rustic fishing town. Although our private room with bathroom was small it was air conditioned and the communal spaces including the chairs and hammocks around the pool, the kitchen and cafe/bar offered plenty of space to chill. The staff were super accommodating and provided service with a smile. We stayed longer than intended as this was such a casual and friendly place

Enjoyed our stay! The food in the restaurant was fantastic. Nice place for a game of cards after diving or a beach day. We were able to park right outside the main door and under a security camera which was plus for us

If you’re coming to learn to dive in Taganga this is the place to stay. Staff are great, food is super tasty and linking up with Reef Shepherd for learning to dive is ideal. There is also a great laundry place on the corner. The rooms are super clean, the pool is great and there’s a nice chilled vibe as everyone is diving together.

I’ve chosen Divanga because on the website these hotel had everything I needed ! From the first contact before coming with Lucy who arranged me 2 fun dives with her professional partner reef shepherd ! The check-in was perfect and professional ! The restaurant is so excellent and the card is made for every one ( veggie vegan or not) ! It reminded me of french cooking ! The hotel is cleaned and well maintained. And the rooms are very cleaned to ! I had 2 wonderful dives with Reef shepherd with a discount because I had all my equipment ! The dive team was very professional and safe ! Atmosphere is wonderful and we feel like at home ! Lucy the owner is so nice and flexible thank you ! I recommand Divanga for sure !
