The cabins are quite cute with the hammocks and it’s close to the beach, staff helped book the boat. It’s budget.

The hut was spacious, clean and well maintained, we loved the little terrace with hammock and eating area. The common areas are nice and calm. The hostal is run by a family that is so welcoming and nice. There are cute dogs running free, as everywhere on the island. Food was relatively cheap compared to average prices, and also delicious. There are also many restaurants and two "free" beaches (most are private) nearby. There's also a small shop run by the hostal that comes in handy.

“Basic and chilled family run”
It’s very relaxed and Giovanni and family run it in a relaxed way. It was pretty quiet and I was the only guest at the time. I had a great tour to see bioluminescence with Giovanni son. It’s basic but everything works. Great restaurant nearby.and Ubuntu did a great breakfast.

Beautiful property with charming cottages and a very laid back vibe. Very friendly and helpful staff. Great restaurant across the street that is affiliated (?) with the hostel. There's two stunning beaches close by. We really enjoyed our stay!

“You have to adapt to a place like this and read. There’s no hurry. It’s family run and they’re all great and friendly. I”
It was relaxed and friendly there. The facilities are basic but it was lovely to chill out and we loved it . We have two children with us and they loved all the dogs and cats in the area and the parrot next door . They loved snorkelling off the nearby beaches..

“A little paradise”
The place is a little paradise in the middle of the nature! We loved everything about our stay, and all the dogs around the island are so pretty. With right repellent and bracelets mosquitos didn’t bother much and there was not other insects inside! Food options are a bit limited, but being honest we were completely fine for only 3 days. Also Giovanni was great arranging our transportation to and from the hotel!

“Paradise place”
Location is amazing, a little paradise! Prices of the food in the restaurant are very chip, staff was very kind and helpful. They deliver you the food in your little garden in front of the room, it is extremely pleasant! I hope to be back one day!

We had a wonderful stay! The family and the staff are very friendly, breakfast was delicious and the restaurant is excellent! We highly recommend to stay here and you will be very close to the best beaches of the island.
