Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    We booked 3 nights and stayed 7! This resort was beyond expectations with a great location (far enough from the party, but close enough to go to the city quickly and cheap). Bedding was so compfy, we loved the interior design as well. The pool was great (also for kids), there’s Massage on the beach and in the spa, the breakfast was great and varied and the staff was very friendly and fun.

    Think this was the best place I’ve ever stayed! The hostel is very social and there are events on every night to meet people. If you like having a drink you’ll meet loads of people. Curtain completely covers bed in rooms so total privacy there, beach access with lounges, amazing pools, nice staff, huge lockers to fit case/big travel bag, great location.
