We bare-boated a catamaran out of The Moorings and this location was perfect and very affordable. The hosts were excellent and helpful. Free bikes and several good dining options close by. Thanks! I hope to come again!

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent, modern, well-designed hostel with great facilities, warm friendly hosts, and a wonderful pool. A quiet setting just 1km or so from a supermarket and pleasant bikeride or hitch to the main town. Also a good base for local boat & diving trips, or somewhere just to chill out. Thoroughly recommended.

Lovely friendly owners who go out of their way to help out. Very clean. Comfy beds. good kitchen. Great pool and sunbeds. A very sociable place, the owners also put on a couple of nights making it easy to meet the other guests. Its a little way out of the village (not walking distance), but you can easily hitch a ride or use one of the bikes at the hostel to cycle in.

Lovely owners who will go out of their way to help out. Great pool and sunbeds. Very Sociable hostel. They had a couple of organised nights (BBQ and Pizza) which made it easy to meet people. Everything was very clean, comfy beds and a good kitchen. It is a little way out of the village but you can hitch a ride in easily enough or use one of the bikes at the hostel. There is a smaller village in the other direction that is closer.

Les propriétaires sont toujours disponibles à répondre à nos besoins. La possibilité d’utiliser des bicyclettes gratuites a été utile pour se déplacer à l’occasion.
