Facilities
Everything you need to feel at home
Whale Tales hostel is the ideal place to get to know the real Baja vibe:la Baja is laid back and relaxed, vibrant and adventurous, colourful, creative and inspiring, with a love for the amazing natural splendour of the peninsula. We aim to be your home away from home, a base to start your explorations in Baja Sur and who knows, maybe you will slowly fall in love with this small slice of paradise, just like we did.
As former backpackers and life-long travelers, we love a good hostel that brings people together. Just like the warm waters around Los Cabos and the Gulf of California are a magnet to migrating whales, our small colourful hostel attracts a diverse crowd of travelers with stories from all over the world.
SHARED KITCHEN
A big long table in our kitchen invites you to share meals with fellow hostel guests and make plans for a snorkel session at the beach. The same kitchen is the beating heart of the house during breakfast or on Pizza Night. Actually, on any other moment when there’s food involved.
COMMON AREAS
In our common area you’ll find board games, books and maybe some new friends. The cosy terrace in the garden is the ideal background for an evening playing Catan, reading a book or working a couple of hours away on your laptop. Or a glass of wine and a good chat, whatever you prefer.
ROOMS
You can choose between a bunk bed with privacy curtains and A/C, an outdoor experience in a shared glamping dorm or, if you prefer to sleep alone, your own private glamping tent.
SHARED BATHROOMS
Hot or cold, our showers will freshen you up in no time. Whether you’re staying in the glamping tents in the garden or occupying your dorm bed inside the hostel building, a clean bathroom is only a couple steps away.
LAUNDRY SERVICE
Washing your travel outfit isn’t a big task with our laundry service, but you might use the traditional Mexican lavadero if you’d prefer a quick hand wash. You can also use it to rinse out the snorkel you’ve rented, before handing it back to our staff.
AMENITIES
With your stay also comes a delicious breakfast, free drinking water + coffee and tea all day long, Starlink wifi, boardgames & book exchange and plenty of (free) Hostel activities.
TRAVEL TIPS
Need to know where to go for dinner? Our staff is happy to share all their tips for good food & better drinks. Maybe, if you’re asking really nicely, they might even share some secret local eateries you’ve never even heard of. Secret spots or not so secret, ask away if you’re stuck for inspiration on what to do, pretty sure you’ll end up with a map so full of possibilities you might want to stay another night. Or two. That’s the moment you realize it’s too late…you’ve caught the Baja vibe!
