    Beach front location and ability to rent a surfboard within the hostel was amazing. Meant that even though we were only passing through spending one night we were able to easily do a couple of hours surfing in the morning.
  • Bidya

    The best is the location. The dorm rooms are arranged quite efficiently. And most importantly. They are clean.
