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.

    A backpackers heaven, made from backpackers! Chris and Sasha established a jewel in Tofo. 2 minutes to the beach, 3 minutes to the village center where you get all the necessities you need. You get a discount at one of the dive centers when you stay there. The kitchen is probably the best in whole Africa. Everything is clean and there's so much heart in every little detail. You would miss the best time of your life if you're not staying there

    Baia Sonambula was amazing! The guesthouse was incredibly beautiful, and located right on the beach. The facilities were top notch, and staff very helpful and friendly. The room I stayed in was absolutely beautiful, with a private terrace. Baia Sonambula offered a bit of privacy and a safe haven to relax at Tofo beach. I would definitely stay here again, very much worth the price. The amazing breakfast, complimentary coffee, and available filtered drinking water on offer were a great addition.

    Amazing place. It was low season, so there were not too many people staying. I was fine with that. I was there for diving. It is a 20min walk to town, but it's not as bad as many say. And I walked on my own during the day and night and felt safe. In fact, the people there are helpful. The food was good. Thanks to the staff there. Good hospitality. 👍🏼

    I loved loved loved the property. The design is gorgeous. It's close to the main beach but not on the beach so you get more privacy but it doesn't feel isolated. From here you can pretty much walk to most things. The house itself was clean, cosy, felt inviting, there's housekeeping everyday and Laura the host is really wonderful. Laura really looks after you when you there and as a solo female traveler I never felt unsafe. I cannot wait to return lol it was amazing. See you soon Sunset Tofo!

    Amazing hostel! I truly enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and chill at the pool any time of the day. The personnel was always very kind and attentive, kitchen offered a lot of yummy options. A little walk to the beaches but generally super pleasant to stay at. Friday's party was nice and I liked that both guests and locals joined!

    Fantastic place, great location and great energy! Really enjoyed the pool, yoga, walks on the beach and the amazing food from the chefs. The whole of Tofo and Kumba Lodge is very safe. A special thanks to all the staff especially Ruben, Freddy, Jose who makes this place a vibe. The music, the service, the food, we will definitely be back!

    It's a backpackers hostel frequented by people of all nationalities, friendly and relaxed atmosphere where it is very easy to chitchat or make new friends. The place is literally adjacent to a surf shack where you can rent boards receiving a discount as Pariango customers and also it is extremely easy to get to places such as the market, the beach or clubs. Also the bus stop is just 200m from it.
