Maravilloso y divertido
Pros:

La fantastic actividad social que te crean para hacer amigos es muy buena, siempre hay algo que hacer y el personal tiene muy buen rollo y te hacen sentir del grupo desde el primer momento.
La habitacion privada estaba muy limpia, era moderna y la cama muy blandita. Justo delante está la playa con tortugas. Nos dió pena tenernos que ir.
Repetiriamos sin duda

Convenient and cheerful
Pros:

Comfortable family room.
Was clean and had a cute balcony to chill. We were opposite reception but the room was quiet. Breakfast was nice - fresh fruits, eggs, waffles and they arranged snorkeling boat trips - well worth it. Yoga most days was great. Lots of activities planned every day if you want.

Cons:

Room windows were lovely and big but as it was open to public walkway had to keep curtains closed. Not a big issue for us as we were out all day.

Pros:

Majoituspaikka oli meille toimiva, koska sukelsimme hotellin yhteydessä olevan sukelluskeskuksen kanssa.

Cons:

Huonetta ei siivottu kertaakaan 6 yön oleskelumme aikana.
Hostellilla oli jonkinverran meteliä iltaisin, mutta ei häiritsevästi.

A stylish and social backpacker-friendly stay in a perfect location for snorkeling with turtles, offering a great commun
Pros:

The location is fantastic, especially if you want to snorkel with sea turtles. The sunrise on the east side of the island is absolutely beautiful. I also loved the community atmosphere: beach clean-ups, shared dinners, painting activities, and plenty of opportunities to meet other travelers while still having space for yourself. The staff were always friendly and welcoming. The property combines a hostel, dive center, and beachfront restaurant, making everything very convenient. My daughter especially loved the cats around the property. The area is quiet, and renting snorkeling equipment, bicycles, or electric scooters is easy and affordable nearby.

Cons:

This place is definitely more suited to backpackers than travelers looking for extra comfort. While it is affordable and relatively clean by local standards, I personally found that my expectations have changed over time. The breakfast was exactly the same every day (pancakes, vegetable omelet, and fruit), which became repetitive. Our room was located right next to the reception, so we had to keep the curtains closed most of the time for privacy. The pool seemed more suitable for diving practice than for relaxing or swimming. I was also not comfortable using the water refill stations, as they did not appear particularly hygienic. Additionally, the beach has many coral fragments, so water shoes are recommended for sensitive feet.

Friendly and practical hostel with a great social atmosphere, young travelers, activities and easy opportunities to meet
Pros:

I had a really great stay here. The dorm room is quite small, but it is extremely well designed. The beds are very comfortable, the sheets are clean and good quality, and each bed has its own light and storage space underneath with an electronic lock, which is very practical.

The atmosphere is warm and social, and I was extremely well welcomed by the staff, who were always available and helpful. The common area is large, beautiful and very relaxing, with different spaces to chill, talk or work. The pool is also very pleasant, and there are activities organized for guests. It’s also possible to rent bicycles directly there. The location is also very pleasant and convenient.

The shower areas were also very clean, and the water was always hot. The toilets are really small though, which makes it a bit uncomfortable to get in and out.

The breakfast was honestly amazing — waffles, eggs, fruits, and very generous portions. I even could ask for more.

There is air conditioning in the dorm, and despite the small room, everything felt comfortable and optimized. We were only three people in the room, with separated beds divided by walls, which gave a bit more privacy.

The only thing to know is that the dorms are close to the common area, where there is music until around 10pm. But if people in your room are respectful and quiet, you can have a very good night’s sleep.
