Easily one of the best hostels (if not the best) I’ve stayed at. You can really see how much the owner cares about the communal experience. The daily shuttle to the beach/ sunset spot is great and reliable. One time the owner brought me alone to the beach on his scooter, even tho no one else was going. The staff seem to clean the place multiple times a day. If feedback is given about anything, they action it immidietely (ex.someone complained about the curtains being too bright and the mattress being too hard so they got new curtains & mattresses) I was lucky to meet amazing people while I was staying there. The place attracts respectable yet fun crowd. Many of the people were doing diving courses - Scuba Shack is walking distance from the hostel. It was easy to connect with everyone due to only 2 rooms and a welcoming, family-style common area. Beds & facilities all in great condition. Mini-breakfast consisting of eggs, toast, butter & jam is provided. Filter coffee & tea as well. Overall I loved staying in this place and I would gladly be back :)

Amidst Koh Tao tourist chaos, I stumbled upon this beautiful, newly opened project where I could disconnect and recharge surrounded by nature. The views are magical, with yoga among the clouds and tea gazing at the endless ocean. I'll definitely be back!

The room was very clean and new. Big beds and a good ac. Also there were clean bathrooms, good showers and a top location. The staff was pretty cool and super chill. The owner cooked for us and gave us good recommendation on what to do on the Island. All in all it felt like a little family and like a second home. 10/10 experience 👍

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.

Beds were comfy, the common area/restaurant is a great opportunity to meet people. The staff is international and very social and accommodating. The owner hosts weekly events like movie nights or bbq, even though it’s a social hostel it wasn’t loud at night. When i first arrived i was handed a towel and allowed to shower, even though I arrived way before my check-in. Daily cleaning of the dorms. Perfect hostel for backpackers or anyone who wants to meet new people!

The owners as so lovely and so helpful. Beds were comfortable and clean and private. Facilities were great. Free tea and coffee and a fridge. Lovely little balcony area and in a great location, close to everything. Everything about this hostel is perfect. Safe and secure too with key fobs to enter the room.
