We had a wonderful stay at Karin’s hostel and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Everything was clean, and there was such a warm, friendly community atmosphere that made us feel comfortable right away. Karin explained everything clearly and was incredibly welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. We enjoyed our time there so much that we spontaneously decided to extend our stay by an extra night. Changing the booking was easy and uncomplicated, which we really appreciated. Overall, we felt genuinely welcomed, relaxed, and had a great time. Highly recommended.

The host was absolutely lovely and very helpful, made me feel right at home and gave some great recommendations! The facilities in the room and public spaces were great, if you are looking for a place that feels like it’s in the countryside but is close enough to a town this is the place for you! I cannot recommend this stay enough!!

“Quiet paradise near the beach”
The place is quiet and peaceful surrounded by nature (we got avocados and bananas directly from the trees in the garden). The commun kitchen is full equiped and always clean, and the commun areas are perfect for chatting with other guests. The two owners are lovely and always keen to help you with whatever you need. The beautiful beach of Madama is within 45 min walking through the jungle, and Fronton beach is within 1h30.

“Very peaceful and luminous stay”
Karin, the owner, was fantastic. Some days she was alone taking care of the cats, the horses and the hotel and still would take time to check in with all travelers to see that they were fine. It is very simple to organize horseback riding trip there, good nice horses, well taken care of, and loved!

The owner has quite a few dogs and some Horse too. If you want you can book a ride. I didn't as I am a bit afraid of riding anything with their own brain! The hostel was one of the most peaceful in my travels to the point where I can imagine not wanting to leave. The town itself has little actual activities except for the really nice beaches. I hiked for about 35 minutes to one very nice one that was totally like the one from the movie the Beach. Road there gets a bit rough the last 1/4 mile. Just can't drive faster than about 15 mph. I have a feeling in 5 more years this whole area will blow up like so many of the other gems.
