Nowt & Yolanda were amazing hosts as well as their two little boys. We felt right at home here! Rooms are spacious and beds comfy. The town is small and only a short walk to the beach and restaurants. There is a mini mart, ATM and farmacia- everything you need.

Mudhouse Hostal was exactly what I was looking for—super laid-back, close to the beach, and full of good vibes. The natural style of the place fits perfectly with Mompiche’s easygoing atmosphere. I spent a lot of time just relaxing in the hammocks, chilling after surfing and reading books. The staff were awesome—really friendly and always happy to help with local tips. My room was simple, clean, and had everything I needed. Not fancy, but super comfortable and totally fits the surf-town vibe. If you're into surfing, relaxing, and meeting cool people, this place is a winner. Would definitely stay again.

On a Wednesday the bar isn't open so the hostel is really dark and there's nowhere to hangout or read.

The owners are super lovely. The kitchen is the cleanest I've ever seen in a hostel. The bar has a good happy hour. The yoga and hammock space and sunken lounge - lots of cool areas to hang out.

Came here for a week but stayed over a month, the first time around. Mudhouse is a little gem surrounded by beautiful nature and the village life of Mompiche. It’s a chill but social hostel, the vibe is relaxed and down to earth, and everyone who stays at Mudhouse becomes a part of the family. Would really recommend!

The price is worth what you get! No warm water and eco friendly but this is what you are signing up for so just lean it to it!

Great location in a very safe spot in Ecuador. This place is run by a lovely couple and at night local people came to enjoy the bar which made for a special and amazing time. The hosts went out of their way to make everyone feel welcome and part of the family. I would recommend this to anyone who wants an authentic experience in Mompiche

Very friendly and welcoming owners. The property it is very nice, clean and well equipped. The new bar area is a great place to spend the evenings, enjoying VERY good value drinks during happy hour - great place for meeting people both locals and other travellers. Would very highly recommend to anyone visiting Mompiche (even if you don’t stay there you should visit the bar for happy hour!)

The place is beautiful, made with much love and feeling for details and atmosphere. It is taken care of in every aspect. One can easily felt as a part of a family - having his peace when needed but always people to do something with as well. The owners are care taking, easy and do everything they can for the guests to meet their needs. Thank you!

Only thing was the bathroom in the 8 bed dorm. It never felt clean and water quality isn't great because of lots of minerals in the water. But I think this the case throughout the town.

We loved the common areas and yoga deck. Nout sorted out us being able to watch the Six Nations rugby (he has every sports channel under the sun). The kitchen is lovely and semi-outside. We really liked how friendly and social it was during breakfast and dinner. Yolanda, Nout and the boys were such great company!

Adored staying at the mudhouse! The bar is groovy and the owners are so lovely. The walk to town and the beach were super close and easy to get to. Comfortable beds and spacious dorm rooms with lots of storage space. Wifi strong for working remotely as well (:

Just so you know, the bar (which is a ton of fun) plays music till midnight so if you’re a very early and light sleeper you might have an issue. but the atmosphere is so good that you’ll probably want to hang out there until it closes anyways.

We liked it so much that we extended for four days. beautiful location, very comfortable and with fantastic owners.
