Loved the vibe of the place and thoroughly enjoyed my stay here. The place is very safe for solo female travellers. The hosts are very warm and friendly!! I had the opportunity to connect with many other fun and interesting travellers here as well. The property is huge and very green with lots of common areas and hammocks for chilling. There is also a lovely rooftop space for morning yoga. Will definitely come back here again and recommend this place to others!

Such a calm and peaceful stay and great hosts who made me feel at home. Kitchen and terrace are nice and the walls are full of childhood cartoon art and even I got to paint one. Shafeeq is the best chef with amazing food. I'd definitely recommend to solo travelers, it's a great place to meet people, play games and enjoy karaoke nights.

First off, the staff were all awesome here: front of house and back. Everyone is so friendly & accommodating. Love the cafe area outside to chill, eat, read, party, whatever…lots of common areas here. There’s a huge backyard with room to roam/post up. The beds are standard but comfy. Facilities are cleaned daily so everything’s tip top. This place is only 5min walk to the beach. Lots of touristy shops/restaurants on the cliffs there, so you have shopping/food, but ask the staff where to eat. They know the good spots.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

The best hostel I’ve stayed at throughout my whole trip of India. Had originally booked two nights, and ended up staying a week- if I had the time I would’ve stayed for a month! Great location, super helpful and friendly owners, and a really comfortable feeling The around the place. Highly recommend. Plus the hostel has recently adopted a couple of adorable puppies!

The staff is amazing. Friendly, talkative and really helpful. There is a great atmosphere. The dorm for 8 people was quite comfy. Very tasty and quite cheap meals in a hostel restaurant. Great location if you want to be near very calm beach. There are available some board games, hammock... in general, very chill atmosphere. Thanks!

This was my first solo travel. The moment I reached the hostel, I could feel the warmth. Nikhil, Vikas, Kartik are really helpful, fun and warm people. The rooms are decent and the place has a raw touch. The food made by Kumar bhaiya was yumm too! The vibe of this place is immaculate. Great location, safe for solo girl travellers. Not to mention, lots of cuddles from the cute pups, cooper & mini.
