Holy Cow Huts Reviews

The Hostel is closed!!!!!!

Great staff! Good location, only a short walk to the beach and the main strip. Nothing to complain about, everything was good!

Great little community great place to meet people! Really enjoyed staying here

its a great place to stay and met some nice people free breakfast was great i enjoyed my stay !

This hostel was awesome and the crew was even better! First I booked only 3 nights, finally I extended my stay for another 8 nights. The staff helped me with everything from where to go and what to do and how to get around . The rest of the crew there also made me feel right at home, this hostel really felt like a home away from home and I would recommend it to all my friends!

We had such a great experience. The stuff is lovely and very helpful and super fair. I was already about to leave when the reception girl reminded me that I would still get my deposit back. We loved hanging out there, smoking shisha, meeting other travelers. The wi-fi is another big plus. I definitely recommend Holy Cow tents!!

If your backpacking on a budget nowhere in Palolem that can compete with this place. It is impossible for me with limited space to write to give Holy Cow its due credit. I will say only this, If you want to stay in a place that cares about YOUR EXPERIENCE and not about profits, this is the place. wake up to the view of the mountains and the Holy Cows grazing in the fields opposite and the big smiles from the family that run the Huts,they make your stay special and thats all that mattered to me.

It was such an incredible disappointment!! Don't go there, has nothing that worth it. The manager doen't speak english so it's very hard to understand her or ask any questions, and she is very grumpy and makes you uncomfortable all the time. Breakfast is very poor and athmosphere..there isn't at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We move the second day to the coco huts right on the beach, that was half of the price and with people working there very nice, like Parvathi coco huts or Flavia's Paradise.

You definitely get what you pay for. It's cheap and has a great location, however it does not come with all the amenities listed. It's hard to get hot water, you will not get a towel, you must ask repeatedly if you want your change back or a blanket. The rooms are listed as 4 bed dorms... when they really are 5+. They have "lockers" which are flimsy with locks that are not secure, however keeping your things in the tent was pretty safe. They came in and moved my things around without asking.

They had forgot about my booking so they built me a bed out of old tables which was uneven, way too short and very uncomfortable. Moreover we were 6 people in to room instead of 4 because of the homemade beds! The security was very poor too. All this is quite a shame because the place has such a nice atmosphere and the staff is very friendly.

Holy Cow Huts was a great place to stay! While it's not right on the beach, it's only a short walk away and it's tucked away in this little enclave away from most of the tourist activity. The food and bar are pretty good, and the staff was infinitely kind and helpful.

It was easy to find, the location is 5 min from the beach, so it was perfect for me! Very clean and safe and the staff was very friendly! they helped me a lot and I loved their free breakfast there and a really good plus is the free wifi!

Firstly, the location of the hostel described on the hostel world map was inaccurate, this needs to be fixed. Secondly, the manager should inform the adjoining hotel (village utopia) about holy cow hits cause no one knows it exists and there is no signage. Lastly, I would not recommend this place to anyone as there are better safer and cheaper options in palolem. Being in a group of 3 girls travelling we did not feel safe and left about an hour after arriving there.

Thanks for this great time I had in your hostel! You are the best! The cocktail parties were amazing, all the nice people I met there...I´m already missing this place!

one of the best and most comfortable hostel in india we've ever been with unbelievably friendly and considerate hosts. totally recommendable!

The hostel is beautiful and a very comfortable place to stay. sunny is a lovely person and make you feel very cared for and looked after. It is a fun and friendly place , while I was there we had cocktail party ,there's always something going on. The location is perfect ,. I hope to go back!
