Staff is amazing! The hostel is well run with daily events and a tasty menu on offer daily. Free yoga classes, you name it! You must stay here.

- The hostel is next to the main road which can be noisy at times - We were playing Werewolf multiple nights with the house rule the only role you can claim to be is a "villager". Claiming different roles as a werewolf and for the seer to strategically decide when to disclose themselves as well as info discovered during the night is a core part of the game, overall making for a strange experience as no new factual claims or information were shared at any point during a game. I love social deduction games but found this house version underwhelming. The host was very kind and friendly though so it's all good! 👌🏻

Had a really good stay at Happy Panda Hostel in Arambol. The staff are super friendly and welcoming. This was actually my first hostel where I got to meet so many people, the vibe is very social and open. They also host activities, which makes it easy to connect with others and not feel awkward if you’re traveling solo. Overall, a great place if you’re looking to meet people and have a fun, friendly experience. Would definitely recommend!

Best hostel I have stayed at in India so far. All the staff is so helpful and friendly, they make you feel right at home as soon as you step in. It's very easy to meet other travelers in the common areas and thanks to the social activities organised every evening. There is everything you need in the dorm, beds are very comfy, and I like that there are bathrooms in the dorms as well as outside. And it's always so clean! Shout out to the cleaning staff who is amazing. You can get food and drinks directly at the hostel too, which is very convenient. Location is great as well! Such a fantastic place, I will definitely come back if I am in Goa again!

"Simply the best hostel in Arambol! :)"

9.0

A very social hostel with the most amazing staff, and where you'll feel at home easily. I loved how clean and comfortable the common areas and rooms were :)

Next to a busy road and a little far from the beach or other places, but it was okay :)
