Amazing hostel. Was quiet as it is off season. There was also construction going on which was quite disruptive but the room was amazing and food great too!

I had an amazing stay at Roaming Retreat and couldn't have asked for a better experience. The property is spotless, beautifully maintained, and has a premium yet welcoming feel. What truly sets it apart is the incredible team—they made me feel at home from day one. It's the perfect balance of comfort and a social atmosphere. Highly recommended!
