Insider Tip

Malaga Beach and Center Backpackers

Are you looking for a relaxing beach vacation? This is the place to stay if you want a nice retreat very close to the beach. The hostel is clean and comfortable with friendly staff and a relaxing vibe. The rooms stay quiet and you can hang out on the terrace or relax with a book. It's a chill hostel, definitely not a party hostel, so you'll enjoy having a few days to unwind and soak up the beach atmosphere.

The Facilities

Dorms

The rooms sleep either four, eight, or ten people. They're a comfortable size and are cleaned regularly. Some of the rooms have a balcony and an electric kettle. There are reading lights and basic shelving. The beds have simple frames and the mattresses are comfortable. Guests can also choose between female only and co-ed rooms.

Bathrooms

Some rooms have private bathrooms attached while others use shared bathrooms down the hall. Like the rest of the hostel, the bathrooms are clean and reliable. Guests have access to a hairdryer as well, so it's easy to get ready for your day's activities.

Common Areas

This is a quiet hostel that most guests use as a peaceful oasis near the beach. If you want to relax, you can head to the terrace which has a nice view and several chairs and tables where you can hang out. There's also a television room inside where you can watch a show or sporting event.

Many guests appreciate the shared kitchen, which can get crowded at times. It's a nice place to prepare meals as there aren't many restaurants that are very close to the hostel.
