Jodanga Backpackers Hostel

If you want a couple of days chilling in the sun by the pool this is the perfect hostel for you! Come visit our backpacker’s Luxury Hostel!

The place where I grew up is now home for backpackers visiting Santa Cruz. The hostel started in 2006 and has established a well-balanced between fun and relaxation. We go according to the guests staying, if you want to have fun and party, we organized BBQ's by the pool “all you can drink and eat” for everyone to meet and have a good time. If you want to rest and relax just watching movies or having a drink at the poolside bar you can also do so.
