Nous avons étés très surpris de l’endroit. Nous sommes arrivés en soirée et personne n’étaient présents pour nous indiquer quels lits prendre. Tous ou presque étaient sales, la salle d’eau est commune il n’existe pas de séparation. Il y a également qu’un seul toilette sans papier toilette. Je ne peux pas donner mon avis sur le personnel car nous n’avons croisés personnes, par contre l’emplacement est magnifique, vous êtes littéralement sur la plage. Vous pouvez voir de...

The owner was really nice and helped us organize some travels. His mom made us breakfast and even invited us to go to the Tempel with her. It’s really close to a beach. The only thing is that the room is a bit small for 10 beds but it really is manageable we stayed three nights and it was fine!

I had a great time here. The owner is super nice and I met two very good friends here that I stayed with the whole time I was in town. I would recommend.

Nice Hostel, very near at the beach but very dirty, not social at all, one dark room with a lot of beds inside, little breakfast by request

He tenido muy buena experiencia en happy coco, está un poco apartado de todo pero eso genera también mucha tranquilidad y paz, tienes prácticamente una playa privada junto al hostel. Las vibes de las personas del hostel y del propietario ( Sikka ) han sido muy positivas y acogedoras, lo recomiendo totalmente.

Had such a lovely stay here, it’s right on a beautiful beach, great for shell hunting and seeing turtles and met some amazing people during my stay at this hostel. The host is really lovely too. Thank you!

I thought carefully before writing this review because it’s a new place and I don’t want to harm them, but I have to be honest. Cleanliness is very poor: I saw cockroaches twice, even on backpacks with clothes. There were spiders in my bed and a large web by my pillow. I never found the breakfast and no one explained it. The internet is basically nonexistent But the beach is amazing!

1 Toilet for 12 people, I accidently left my ear plugs and the owner ghosted me after asking for them. 10 people are sleeping in one room with almost no space to walk in. Hirikiteya is 20min walk away and there is only one good restaurant at the hostel.

Great location, very friendly staff, and excellent value for money. The hostel has a welcoming vibe, clean rooms, and a comfortable common area to relax or meet other travelers. Highly recommend!

It was so close to a silent beach, which was very nice! To dorm room was fresh and nice and had good curtains. Only thing that could be nice to have is more chilling area, except the big table area outside.

Das Hostel ist sehr süß. Man merkt, dass sich alles noch im Aufbau befindet, aber die Lage am Strand ist wunderschön. Leider nur eine Toilette, die man nicht parallel zu den Duschen nutzen kann. Erfordert Absprachen, aber alles machbar. Insgesamt für den Preis empfehlenswert

I had such a lovely time at Happy Coco hostel. The vibe was always on point and the host, Sikka, was always really helpful. If you’re up for a challenge, make sure to challenge him to a game of Karrom while you’re here. The beaches nearby are beautiful and if you’re lucky you might see a few turtles!!

Great hostel. Bedroom backs onto a nice patio and garden with the beach at the end. The beds were so comfy and the AC was good. Everything was clean and the staff were really nice. In a good location just a few minutes from loads of cafes and restaurants. Very simple and not super social. Warning there aren’t dividers in the shower room so it’s just a row of showers.
