The dormitory had walls between the beds and that made it seem like I had my own bedroom and, for me, having that privacy was great! Everything was really clean and welcoming. With 2 separate bathrooms for men and women, it was enough for everyone staying there. The kitchen and eating area was really nice, big and clean, with everything you need to store and cook your food.

The short dirt road getting there.

Beautiful place, clean, dorms has separated spaces for each bed, a nice beach within walking distance

I totally loved it! The staff was really friendly. They also checked me in super early with no extra charge. Inside the dorm bungalow, there are partitions between beds, which give everyone a private small room. Really luxurious conditions for a hostel! The room comes with a mosquistiera, small fan and table lamp. The bathroom, kitchen, and common area are really clean and well equipped. I saw a lot of information, magazines about the island and the activities here (in the common area). You can rent snoring equipment, rent a towel, do a laundry, etc... 5-minute walk there is a small thai food truck (1000xpf for a meal). Gorgeous settings (full of greenery, in a garden).

Location is a bit tricky to get from the ferry - you have to: either rent a car/scooter by the marina, either take a bus (the bus schedule is really unreliable), or take a taxi (around 30-50€), or hitchhike. Locals are really helpful, and a lot of people stop when you hitchhike :)

Very comfortable place with amenities like a kitchen. Very good location in the middle of the 2 bays. Good privacy for dorm like style rooms.

I had one but I highly recommend a scooter or car to get around.
