10.0The staff , the lake , the peaceful living.
− Nothing
Wouldn’t recommend for solo female travelers
1.0The animals treat you better than the property managers
− Carefree, Pretty solo female travelers PLEASE run away from this place. Having backpacking solo for the last decade all over the world it’s the first time I write a negative review. After living and working in this hostel for over 4 months last year,one year later today I make a booking only to hear from them that I have been banned from the hostel. Slut shamed and ridiculed at the cost of being a wild free woman. While drugs and narcotics are allowed it’s not allowed to be your Self. The story I was told was that after I left last year in January “some tourists” came looking for me and made his girlfriend uncomfortable asking if she was me? lmfao Basically they labelled me a whore and didn’t want me returning to the hostel. Cause Whores aren’t welcome. You dress pretty and flirt with guys - not allowed Cocaine - yes What I find most amusing is that they waited one year to tell me this- of course they needed time to perfect the story. I’m in touch with my lawyer to file a case against defamation of my name and reputation. A pity to this beautiful location. Other than the people running the hostel the space is truly beautiful. Wouldn’t recommend for solo female travelers
Guest review
9.0Beautiful place and environment. Loved the opportunity to kayak in the morning.
− Too many people in the shared room. And the bunk beds are not comfortable and it has no curtains for privacy.
Guest review
10.0A beautiful oasis by the lagoon - wish we’d stayed longer. And taking the kayak out for sunset and sunrise was super special
− Nothing!
Großartiges Hostel
10.0Das beste Hostel, das ich in Sri Lanka hatte. Der Host hat uns mit allem geholfen, es wurde sehr gutes family dinner angeboten und auf Nachfrage konnte auch ein Transfer zu vielen Orten organisiert werden.
