The Palm (Hostel and Camping)

Overall Rating

Not enough customers have reviewed this property for us to provide a fair rating but don't worry, we'll have a rating soon.

CHEAP, CLEAN and CHEERFUL!!! The Palm is owned and run by Europeans – we focus on travelers seeking activity and adventure. Surfing, Capoeira, hiking, mountain-biking, kayaking, boat trips, whale watching, we can help you get active in Itacaré.

Itacaré is especially famous for its surf and a lot of surfers stay with us – it is the hostel closest to the waves with 5 surf beaches within walking distance. On a big swell there is also the river break – one of the longest waves in Brazil. For beginners we have surf classes. Contact for our very reasonable-or iced surf packages. For experienced surfers we have board rental (no wetsuits ever needed here!), transport to the beaches outside town, and advice on where and when is the best place to surf.

For non-surfers there is hiking to many secluded beaches and waterfalls (18 trails), Capoeira classes, kayaking up the river, mountain biking, rafting, boat tours, whale-watching (in season), off-road trips, gym, paragliding, Portuguese classes, or just chill out on one of the 15 beaches the area has to offer. We are in the middle of the main street and close to all the shops, cafés and bars too. So, don't worry, you won't be bored....

Welcome to the Palm...

Accommodation Information

Maximum of 4 people per room, all rooms are en suite with a fan, and we are the only hostel in Itacaré with FREE WIRELESS!! We provide linen and towels for free too. All guests have access to the kitchen and a cheap laundry service. Out the back is a fully serviced campsite with electricity points, toilets, showers and hand-washed linen facilities. We try to keep the hostel quiet at night, but we are right in the centre of town for those who want to party.

We at the Palm try to create a friendly atmosphere, not only between you and the staff, but also between fellow guests. We have an outdoor social area and there is a big garden out the back to chill out in the hammock during the day. Basically, if you’re happy, then so are we.
