This hostel has an awesome vibe! They had a slackline and other fun games to play while hanging out and a one minute walk from the beach! The staff was super friendly and helpful, and the hostel felt very safe. I enjoyed the small community vibe, with only 3 or so bedrooms in the hostel, very chill and relaxed. One thing is our shower didn’t drain but the outdoor shower was a really nice alternative. Would definitely recommend and come again

I really enjoy my stay. I just wish they didn’t kicked me out my bed because someone booked the two beds together. I extended but decided to cancel, I find it rude and It’s the principle. I don’t expect them to meet that standard it’s easy to understand

Best hostel in the world!!! Kindest staff and great facilities all a short walk from the beach. I’d advise anyone to stay here who’s visiting Trincomalee but be warned staying here will make you want to come back ♥️ thank you!
