Such good value when we visited and the best dorms I’ve ever stayed in. Great place to reset. The pool was perfect on hot days Mayomi went above and beyond with helping me patch up my toe after I injured it. Very professional and friendly

A very chilled hostel. Good if you want to relax and hang by the pool.

Sehr sauber, modern, professionell, hochklassiges Yoga. Etwas steril und wenig kommunikativ in der Haus-Atmosphäre. Nur sehr teuer, auch das Essen / Drinks vor Ort. Sie Surf Stunden sind nur durchschnittlich, die surflehrer geben nur wenig individuelles Feedback und Technik-Training.

Sehr schöne Unterkunft! Ich hatte eine tolle Zeit und konnte gut abschalten. Insgesamt ist es aber etwas überteuert.

Without a doubt, this is the best hostel I’ve ever stayed in—and I doubt any other can even come close. Every detail here, from the architecture to the staff and amenities, shows the immense effort invested in making this place truly exceptional. If you’re on the fence about booking, consider this your sign to reserve your spot. The conversations you’ll share with a travelers here would be different. Malsha, Malindu and the rest of the team adds to overall charm in this place. 10/10

Allowing other Dorm room guests to leave the door open is unacceptable, not only is this a massive security risk for solo female travellers (especially when the front gate was left open at night), you let all the mosquitoes in and potentially monkeys. Do better! A nice pool, good food but breakfast wasn’t worth the money.

A great luxury hostel. PROS: amazing style, good location, free surfboard hire, staff are lovely especially Udani, everything very convenient and cool to have a pool, rooms are very spacious Also met some nice people. CONS: pricing is extremely high. The cost for hostel rooms is way higher than a lot of rooms in the area, breakfast and activities are also priced far higher(2-3x) than local places. Overall a nice place to stay, you pay a high price but for a very nice place.

This place is a 10! The best hostel I've ever stayed in! The rooms are super spacious as are the lockers, cleaning is 10 and the staff is lovely! Paola the manager is adorable and so is each of the people who work there. I highly recommend it.

I knew exactly where I wanted to be and came straight here, the vibe and atmosphere are incredible. The facilites are all top-notch. And don't even get me started on the staff - they're some of the nicest people I've ever met! Oh, and the food? Delicious breakfast and group dinners that bring everyone together. Cool surf instructors. And the yoga teacher? Superb, I tell you. I never thought I'd be a yoga person, but here I am, doing 2-3 surf sessions and 2 yoga sessions per day PS: wifi w...

Schöne neue Unterkunft mit vielen Möglichkeiten vor Ort (Pool, Drinks, Yoga). Preise werden vermutlich in Zukunft anziehen, und die angebotenen Aktionen sind vergleichsweise teuer
