  1. Confirmed Hostelworld

    I was hesitant to book smugglers cove due to some negative reviews but I’m very glad I did! The rooms were clean (no bed bugs) and noise depends on which room you’re in as I stayed twice-first time no noise but second time was quite noisy next to the bar. The restaurant has a really nice atmosphere with the lights and live music and a good menu! Would highly recommend before and after travelling to yasawas!

  2. Confirmed Hostelworld

    Overcrowded, unclean, and dismissive Dorms were overcrowded with limited showers. I woke up with bed bug bites and emailed clear pictures to the hostel. They responded by saying they “don’t get bedbugs” — not sure how they think they’re immune. No accountability, poor hygiene, overpriced food. Avoid if you value cleanliness or basic respect

    Smugglers cove is probably the best hostel your going to get for pricing. Pros: Great location Good food Social Affordable Offer shuttle to the airport Cons: Unfortunately I did get bed bugs here in the private room Dorm rooms are very very out dated

  4. Confirmed Hostelworld

    A loot of cockroaches in the dorms. Even in the bed. But at least there were no bed bugs. Pool pretty nice. Food okay but nothing special. They didn’t wash the brown duvets.

  5. Confirmed Hostelworld

    Had bed bugs, awful hygiene in the hostel and smell was awful.

  6. Confirmed Hostelworld

    This was a nice enough place to stay. Good location on the beach and good bar atmosphere at night. The dorms were not the cleanest a few cockroaches. I had read previous reviews about bedbugs but couldn’t find any traces when we were there fortunately.

  7. Confirmed Hostelworld

    Very dirty, lots of bed bugs, toilets are smelly. The staff are fab, very helpful, right next to the beach. Come here for a good cheap stopover, but don’t expect to feel safe clean or have a good nights sleep!

    The staff were wonderful, especially Joanne. There were no bed bugs (I heard they were found at other accommodations). There's not really much to do at the hostel. There is no kitchen for guests to use, so you have to buy food. Overall, I'd say my stay was fine. It's worth the price if you're only staying a night or 2.
