everything was great about the apartment. It's very clean, surprisingly quiet, close to the beach, bed is comfy and the AC works well and quietly. The host lives more or else next door and was super helpful in my travel endeavors, incl getting a motorbike, laundry and planning + booking my continuation trip at a price that was better than what I could get from regular agencies. While the place itself doesn't have any amenities (which is expected at that price) it is in walking distance to the long Beach Chalet resort which has offers a great + relaxed beach bar and Café. Overall the place is really good value for the money.

Great space. a little overpriced for a hostel but it’s high season so I guess it can be expected. Clean and comfortable, great location on the beach, pool and other facilities were kept clean.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Nice social hostel with restaurant, bar, pool, pool table. Near to cheap restaurants and to the beach. You can book the 4 islands tour with them for cheaper. Activities almost every night with nice staff. Clean and 2 toilets for 4 beds (great ratio)

    Lovely hostel. The owners are super lovely and helpful. Helped us book transport, trips, were super chatty with us and even asked around the hostel to see if others wanted to join us to go to the old town festival that was on to make the taxi cheaper! Bathrooms had enough toilets and showers for everyone and the room was clean and comfortable!

    Best hostel I’ve stayed in on my travels so far.Staff are so kind and will go out of their way to help you in any way they can.Breakfast you have the choice of eggs how you would like them,toast,fruit,juice,tea,coffee and muffins etc. Rooms are clean as well as the bathrooms and the beds are comfortable.Only a two minute walk to the beach and lots of nearby restaurants.There is also a separate quiet area for working and a free popcorn machine which is a nice touch. They also rent out scooters for a cheap price.
