The entire property was expansive, with plenty of space and many animals to see. There’s a cool on-site restaurant, so you can grab food or drinks anytime. It’s located very close to the beach, and the vibe was truly unique.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Great location and the cabins were amazing and well air conditioned. They have a bar and selling food which was very basic and very processed food but you can't expect too much at a hostel.

    Great location, right on the beach where you can snorkel. Also bus stop right outside the hostel, quite convenient. Cheap drinks and social place, nice to meet people.
