Good location and good price.
It’s only 4 mins walking from the beach. The hosts are nice and the place is very clean. Yes, it’s more quiet and has more rules compared to backpacker hostels, but it’s good if you don’t like noisy and messy hostels.

Perfect location, feels like a home. Perfect hosts. I stayed here for almost 8 days. Really satisfied. Andrew and Valentino are like parents to people who stay there. They arranged some tours and gave us some information. You can easily access to the beach and restuarant or market to buy groceries

GAVA is amazing!! I went by myself and brought my husband back a year later. It is affordable and they are extremely accommodating. When other arrangements fell through they allowed us to come on short notice as well as another guest. It is a small quieter hostel (which I loved). We were able to cook, and we made a family dinner for everyone and enjoyed chatting with folks we just met. If you are looking to party or have a luxurious vacay this is not the spot, but if you want to meet great people from all around and relax on the beach and get some good sleep, it’s great. It’s also great for individuals solo-traveling.

I had one of the best experiences during my stay at Hostel Gava in Punta Cana. The place was clean, calm, and respectful, making it a perfect spot for a relaxing vacation. A special thanks to Andrey & Valentina, who was incredibly welcoming and helpful throughout my stay. I highly recommend Hostel Gava and will definitely return for my next vacation!

GAVA Hostel is an excellent stay for solo travelers in Punta Cana 🎒 It is located right at the beach and in walking distance to the supermarket and restaurants. Since the hostel is in Andrey and Valentina's home, some rules make it a very cozy and clean space. Both hosts are lovely and will help you book tours, find the bus station, or answer any other questions. I immediately felt at home and would stay again :)

This was a great location at the heart of Punta Cana, within a walking distance to the beach. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Valentine was extremely accommodating to our needs. We also ended up making new friends by the end of our stay!

Positive experience!
Valentina and Andrey are the greatest hosts. They are very caring and always make sure you’re comfortable and taken care of.
The hostal is located in a convenient area that’s walking distance to the beach, markets and restaurants.

The place has established pretty clear and reasonable rules that ensure the cohabitation with other guests is harmonic and respectful.

Just be aware that specific spot of Punta Cana is slowly developing and there is a lot of construction sites in the surroundings areas making it look a bit sketchy and inconvenient to walk after rainy days. That’d be the only down side.

Overall a positive experience!

Had such a great time at Gava! Valentina and Andrew were both so sweet, and they gave me such great tips for what to do and where to go. The hostel was very clean; you can tell they put a lot of effort into keeping the area tidy! The hostel itself is basically a room off of the main apartment with 4 beds in it, and all common spaces (kitchen, living room, bathrooms, etc.) are shared, which is great for connecting with new people. Individual lockers are available for keeping valuables stored, which was great. Would definitely return!

I had an absolute great time at Gava! Valentina and Andrew were very warm and welcoming hosts, and their hostel is quite cute. Strongly recommend staying here, especially since it’s so conveniently located next to the beach.
