Very nice & cosy hostel, everything seems quite new & is well maintained. Loved that it had a small living room with a TV and some books :) I was there out of season but it seems like a great place to meet lots of new people with very lovely common spaces and a pool.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is 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 bit more.

    Nicely designed little hostel. If younjoy busy and noisy party area, closed to all the bars, this is a place for you. Righ on the main touristy street by the sea side.

    The apartment is spacious and well located, close to the beach and some nice bars and restaurants. The little cafe bar by the pool is great for a cheap and tasty breakfast - the two woman who work there are really lovely.

    Exellent hostel. Modern, safe, clean with cozy beds. Nothing is a problem there. I needed a hair drayer, no problem. I could also leave there my luggage after checking out. Hostel is very near the Praia da Rocha. Nearby starts coastal trail along the coast. I will come back one time.

    The property was in a great location. I couldn’t find the place right away so had to call them. The person I talked to was very helpful and made sure I got there easily. The apartment is just like in the pictures. Is really close to the beach and has a few small supermarkets nearby. Was travelling solo so I wanted a place where I could feel safe and close to everything I would need and this was it.
