Relaxed and affordable, and now that I'm here: why not book a few fundives? Restaurant with very good food (you can tell the owner is French), a bar on the roof, dorms a and private AC rooms. And most important: hammocks. 😎 For you digital nomads: wifi is good. Staff helps you with tips for restaurants and supermarkets.

Stayed here to do my PADI Open Water and the whole experience was excellent. The hostel itself is lovely, rooms and common spaces were clean. The staff were great and the food was delicious. The PADI experience was incredible and so professional. Mario was my instructor and I couldn’t recommend him more. If you’re considering Taganga, you have to stay here!

Super fijn hostel! Faciliteiten top, kamers schoon en goed en eten ook super! Gerund door een super lieve vrouw en de andere staff was ook top! Duikcursus daar ook heel goed! Mario was de beste instructor! Voelde me super veilig en het was professioneel, maar ook gezellig! Zou hier zeker weer verblijven / duiken als ik ooit weer in de buurt ben.

Pleasant and relaxing stay including diving! Amazing stay at Divanga. The food and service is exceptional and they are extremely accomodating. Throughout our three night-stay, my girlfriend did an Open Water certification and she was really happy with (Super) Mario’s help and guidance throughout. As I already had an Open Water, I was allowed to join my girlfriend’s last session and fundive. It had been some time since my last dive, but Mario was super good at making us feel safe — and the dives were really explorative. I would definitely recommend Divanga for those who want to embark on diving in Taganga or those who just need a really solid place to chill out for a couple of days. Thanks a lot to everyone at Divanga for the pleasant experience!

Super! Großartig! Super atmosphäre, ausstattung, team, lage. Zwar nicht direkt am strand aber das ist von vorteil weil es doet sehr laut ist und hier angenehm ruhig. Pool, Bar, Billiardtisch und AC gibts auch! Der Tauchlehrer ist auch total sympathisch.

The best hostel in Taganga for being chill and meet people We stayed 3 days, and one day more because we couldn’t leave this place ! We met very friendly people there, the instalations are perfect, and the swimming pool is reaaally nice :) They serve food made with fresh products and love. All the place give you the envy of doing nothing, enjoy and talk to people <3 The animals also are so funny and cute :)

Great hostel for diving! We had such a great stay at Divanga whilst doing our open water PADI course. The hostel itself was really lovely and clean and the pool was very welcome when the weather was boiling!! Lucy and her staff were all extremely helpful and couldn’t do enough for us during our stay. Would really recommend booking the diving through the hostel as the instructors were amazing and it was really easy to do the pool/classroom learning from the hostel. Thanks for a great stay!
