El Refugio is a budget-friendly hostel in the El Palmar beach area of San Carlos, on Panama’s Pacific coast within reach of Coronado. The property offers both shared dormitory beds and private rooms, with rates aimed at backpackers and budget-conscious travelers. A large swimming pool and generous outdoor common areas give guests space to relax between surf sessions or day trips along the coast. El Refugio’s casual, affordable setup makes it a practical choice for surfers, backpackers and other travelers who want to stay close to El Palmar’s well-known surf beach and its nearby cluster of restaurants and surf schools, while keeping easy access to the Pan-American Highway for onward travel. The hostel’s social common areas and pool are geared toward a laid-back, community-oriented stay rather than a luxury experience. Guests are encouraged to contact the hostel directly to confirm current rates, room availability and any house rules before booking.
