    Steps away from the beach and friendly staff. The fact that they have a restaurant inside is really helpful for remote works that don't have to search food outside the hostel. The food is really good with amazing vegetarian options.

    What an amazing hostel! Felt like a resort with a great vibe. So many things to do here without having to even leave the hostel. The staff are all great and get involved in the fun. I could stay here forever.
