Very atmospheric and lively place to stay. Host is welcoming and friendly person who loves what he is doing. Place is clean, cosy, we had our own room and could use shared kitchen, homely feeling :) Location is very good, next to town and to amazing beach, all walking distance. Price was very reasonable. We would come back.

We loved our stay. The location is perfect and nature here is stunning. Best youth hostel we’ve ever stayed at. Food was delicious, they had a live band there as well and picnic tables and an oven in our tent. It was a perfect weekend for us.

What an excellent place to stay. Unless you hate hostels of course. Lots of great spaces. Dormitory beds have power and a light each plus a place to put things. Lockable cupboards under the beds. The thoughtful details go on and on. And great staff and a smashing location. I would definitely stay there again. In fact I did.
