Caleta Iguana -- more widely known as Casa Roasada -- is a seven-room beachfront hostel with a round-the-clock party scene. Backpackers and budget travelers looking for a good time will surely find it here, but anyone looking for a good night’s sleep or a hot shower will certainly be disappointed. For a hostel, rooms are nicely decorated, with bright murals and newish furniture. They’re tight on space and amenities -- no TVs, closets, or air-conditioning -- but they’re mostly clean, and some have awesome ocean views, and Wi-Fi is free throughout the property. Some rooms have private bathrooms, while others share a communal one. The on-site beach bar and fire pit are surely Casa Rosada’s best features. Budget travelers who’d like to sleep during their trip should check out La Gran Tortuga, which offers comparable -- but quieter -- accommodations, although it's not right on the beach.
