“Wouldn’t recommend for solo female travelers”
+The 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

+Beautiful 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.

+I spent three weeks here and it was, without a doubt, the absolute highlight of my travels so far. The peace and beauty of the lake are incredible, but what truly makes this place special are Kiri and Mani. Their kindness, hospitality, and the amazing food made me feel right at home from day one. I especially loved our long chats, they really go above and beyond for their guests. If you’re looking for a place to recharge with outstanding service, this is it. I’m already promising myself a return trip. Thank you both for everything see you very soon!

“My favourite hostel yet”
+Can't recommend this place enough, came for 2 nights and extended again and again. The place is so calm, and feels relaxing but sociable at the same time with family dinners. I work remotely and the wifi was perfect for video calls and a great base. Thanks so much to all the lovely staff who went above and beyond!

+Awesome place if you like wildlife. We spent the days on the beach, then came back to the lake to bird watch on the jetty morning and eve. There were monkeys & monitor lizards about which was cool too. A bit further out from town, so need to get tuktuks for about $1 to beachfront/restaurants, so all good. Hosts were great & made good food that catered to vegan/veggie
