L'endroit est tout simplement magnifique et très bien situé. Pour y entrer, il n'y a pas de réception. N'oubliez pas de leur envoyer un message le plus tôt possible, afin qu'ils vous envoient les instructions à temps. Quand je suis arrivée, je n'avais pas encore reçu les instructions et j'ai eu beaucoup de mal à entrer. Heureusement, des clients m'ont aidée. Merci pour tout! La piscine, les hamacs et les cuisines furent vraiment appréciés!

Es ist ein ruhiges Hostel mit einem schönen Pool und einem tollen Gemeinschaftsbereich. Es gibt allerdings keine Rezeption und alles wird nur per WhatsApp kommuniziert. Es gingen verrottete Bananen im Küchenbereich, ohne weitere Erklärung. Die rochen sehr intensiv.
