10 / 10Outstanding·May 2026
This hostel is in a perfect location, just 5 minute walk from the ferry port, right next to the beach, and a 20 minute walk into Sairee. The location means the evenings are peaceful and quiet. The staff were extremely friendly and sociable, making us feel very welcomed to be there. They also work with Isla Tortuga Diving Company, which was also an amazing company which I would highly recommend. Beds were extremely comfy, and the rooms were clean, fresh and large. The bathrooms were also very nice and clean. Could not recommended this hostel more!!!!

Location was superb and the atmosphere was so good. People are lovely, particularly Sandy (one of the volunteers who were there)!
Charging sockets near the bed were not the greatest but I was provided with new ones at reception.

- beds were pretty comfy - good curtains - pretty good location
- the bathroom floor hurts your feet

La proximité du port, la qualité du matelas.
Le fait d’être dans une chambre sans rangement (tout le monde pose son sac par terre et étale ses affaires. C’est un vrai bazar). Par ailleurs, j’avais un lit contre une fenêtre qui donnait sur la salle commune et laissait passer beaucoup de lumière toute la nuit, ce qui est très désagréable pour dormir. Aucun confort dans les douches qui sont très sommaires et dépourvues de savon. La manageuse n’était pas agréable contrairement aux volontaires qui étaient très agréables et arrangeantes (elles essaient d’aider). On sent que cette auberge est une usine à touristes, bien placée et uniquement tournée vers l’argent. C’est dommage parce qu’elle a du potentiel. Merci aux volontaires pour l’accueil.
