My time at Pirate Backpackers was one of my most memorable travel experiences. The hostel had a great social vibe, made even better by the amazing daily activities that brought everyone together. Koko is the most amazing owner who is genuinely passionate about making everyone feel welcome and have an incredible time. The volunteers also made this experience so memorable, in particular Sally, Caitlin and Maddie who went above and beyond to make our time special. Will be recommending to everyone!!
