Real guests • Real stays • Real opinions
The location was perfect - a 2 minute walk from the beach, right next to a very fun and cheap bar, but with a nice little inner area that was ideal for an afternoon rest and recharge. There was always quick service to provide some food or a cocktail. We used the place as a great base for scuba diving (me) and exploring local nightlife (my friend).

So clean! such good food! safe, happy vibe, wonderful staff. My favorite place I stayed at on my 5 week journey. Wonderful place to stay in and read or venture out (great location) i ended up extending my stay~

Nice environment and super close to the beach. The staff is friendly and attentive.

We liked the relaxing vibes and community feel of Makofi. We had a room with air conditioning, a great bathroom, and a lovely balcony with a ceiling fan. It's a nice place to hang out and meet other travelers, and the food was good, too. The swings were relaxing, and I loved my bacon sandwich.

The property and people staying there were really really nice.

Impeccably clean. Common area comfy and had a great vibe. Shared bathrooms were always clean and well stocked. Made sharing bathrooms not an issue at all.

Really good vibes in this hostel with great facilities. The breakfast is also really good, and they organise BBQ nights as well. It's a very short walk to the beach, yet very quiet.

Such an amazing place, good staff, friendly people, loved the fact that everyone gathers in the morning to eat on the same table, beach only 2 minutes walk, highly recommended

The staff at Makofi help take the experience from a 9 to a 10. Everyone is so friendly, willing to chat and share experiences as well as awesome hosts, helping to make your stay better. Everyone wears a smile at all times and helps keep the common areas clean at all times. The beach is a quick 4 minute walk away, which is the perfect amount. Walking distance to all of the clubs, bars, and restaurants that you may be interested in visiting. We also loved connecting with the other guests at Makofi. Additionally, the food and drinks at Makofi are a great value and delicious! I can't wait to come back.

Customer service was everything... food was great!! Rooms / bathrooms were always clean!!.. will definitely recommend
