The best staff ever, Anna and Bill are great. They know all by first name, and are very nice. A bit out of town, but the bus is passing by, 100 m away.But to rent a scooter to get around the island is really the best way to get around. For the friday night party in town Bill took us to town and picked us up again, don't know if he usually do that. Close to good beaches and good snorkelling and dive-centers. Will deff. go back.

I spent 3 very enjoyable weeks living at this hostel with Ana & her family & I can\'t speak higher of what an amazing time I had there. There\'s a really good vibe about the place & I met so many really cool people in my time there. Twice while I was there did people transfer from other hostels to come & stay with us because they\'d heard good things about the place. I would def stay again

had a great time and met so nice people. It is a more quiet and relaxing hostel and def. not a Party HOstel but thats what I wanted. More family like

A really friendly hostel. Great price, clean and convenient - and also really close to the best snorkelling on the island.

the staff here are super friendly, ana is really good fun and her family really look after the guests, the local food night was really good too and worth doing. make sure you have some good mosquito repellant though as our window nets had some holes in and i had been bitten 45 times by the end of the week! the room was nice though and met some cool people also staying there too.
