Island Vibe Backpackers Reviews

The Hostel is perfect if you're looking for party. Location is very good. The facilities are a bit old and the cleanliness is very poor.....

Perfect location - Directly located to the beach with secure access, nice surfer-atmosphere, many tour-offers, nice staff - you should definitely go there!!

Amazing vibe and heaps of fun but my poor liver was not too happy about all the fat boys and sledgehammers

Beautiful location right on the beach.. Defiantly a party hostel music blasted until very very early in the morning. The hostel needs to invest in new bedding. Mattresses, pillows and sheets. It makes such a difference.

It is a very nice hostel to stay, esspecially if you are looking for a party hostel. Unfortunately it is quite noisy at night. and in the rooms it is terrible smelling like the cleaning-liquid they use or insect-spray or whatever. But the smell is quite disturbing. Otherwise it is an awesome hostel with a nice atmosphere and I recommend to go there.

THE BEST STAY IVE EVER HAD! What a party! Located right on the beach with amazing surf! The staff and locals were AMAZING and create the hostel party vibe that bounces off each person that walks in the place. The bar was crazzy with cheap drinks, closes late and is constantly full of people either watching movies on rainy days/ partying till the last person is outta the bar. Cheap home cooked meals at night were really good- especially the braai! so so happy i stayed here, thank you all so much

Nice view. Large hostel with lots of people, good for making on the road friends. We felt safe. Rooms were ok. You could seee the kitchen was constantly being cleaned. There was a nice barbecue area. It is not close to the surfer beaches (tube and supertube) but it is by the outlets.

I was suprised about the cheap Price for that awesome hostel. I have nothing to Complain about. They can only come up with an Easier option for connecting to the wifi. But at least it was for free. :)

This is very much a surfer's hostel, and as non-surfers, we didn't quite fit in, but nonetheless this was a good place to stay, and the staff made us feel welcome. The beach front location was very good and the views were fantastic.
