For anyone whose travelling alone this hostel is just amazing! Had a brilliant stay, staff are amazing and hilarious! Dorm rooms are nothing like those in Oz, huge rooms, shelves lockers and huge matresses. Great pool. Great rooftop bar. Great location. Friendly staff. And the best hostel ive stayed in to meet people! Thanks to everyone at the Island! The free breakfast is great too and he food on the menu is lovely too! Stay here!!!

I spent a night at the hostel for 3 nights this May and had a very pleasant experience. The staff were very kind and friendly. The traditional stone monuments within the property made the place look very sweet and exotic. The prices seem a bit expensive for the service though. And the bathrooms and shower rooms seem a bit dirty.

Everything was great. If shower/toilets area could have being better serviced and cleaned, then it was 100/100

Really nice facility. Friendly staff, clean room and good value. Close to shops but in a quiet location. Wifi not working is the only complaint I have.

Great hostel to meet people. Good food - short walk to the beach - you can chill or party - over all I would for sure stay there again

Decent hotel, but much more expensive than everywhere else we've stayed. Can't really fault it apart from value for money.

This is a nice hostel (felt more like a hotel really), nice rooms, pool, and cafe. Staff were friendly and helpful. Only complaint is the bathroom floor was very skippy when wet, pretty dangerous. Nevertheless we enjoyed our stay and would recommend this hostel.

Very beautiful and clean place. Had blackout a couple of times though. If you come by a car you need to walk to the hostel because the path is so narrow that car can't get in. Love their breakfast especially freash fruit juice and delicious bread:)
