Having opened its doors in 2004, the Coco Loco is now one of the best backpacker hangouts in Canoa. Owned by an American/Mexican couple Elizabeth and Mao, the beach-front hostel offers most facilities one might expect from a surf hostel...and more.
With a small snacks restaurant & palm-fringed hammock garden, the Cocoloco is a communal friendly place that seems to have taken over from other, possibly quieter, hostels in Canoa. Don't be mistaken, we are still talking about quiet Canoa, location of the widest beach & one of the best left break surf waves in the country.
