Yes Hostel in Varkala isn’t just a place to stay it’s a vibe, a community, and for me, a turning point. As a first time solo traveler, I was unsure about the whole hostel experience. But trusting my instincts and booking four nights here turned out to be one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. From the moment I arrived, I felt a genuine sense of belonging that completely changed my perception of hostel life. Harish, the host, is incredibly welcoming and made me feel at ease right away. Shafeeq, the ever jovial chef, brought laughter and warmth to every moment. Vineesh, the creative soul behind the hostel’s quirky art, added a splash of personality to the space. And Steven, a fellow traveler from Hyderabad, became an unexpected companion whose presence made my stay even more memorable. They helped me plan my daily itinerary and even included me in their evening hangouts walking along the cliffside beach, sharing stories, and playing endless rounds of badminton. And then there’s Angel, their adorable indie dog, who added an extra layer of comfort and companionship to my stay. She’s the kind of furry friend who makes a place feel like home. This experience completely reshaped my perception of hostels. What started as a solo trip ended with me gaining a second family. I’d choose Yes Hostel again in a heartbeat no second thoughts, no regrets. If you're looking for a place that’s not just comfortable but also filled with warmth, laughter, and unforgettable company, this is it. Highly recommended for anyone seeking more than just a stay this is where memories are made. Right in the heart of Varkala❤️ -RK✌️😇

I just checked out of Haust, Varkala, after an amazing stay. The place was peaceful and quiet, offering a perfect retreat. Wasim, the caretaker, was incredibly helpful, guiding me with bike rentals, the best food spots, and must-visit places. The property was well-maintained and had a fantastic vibe. .

This place is not only great for socializing, but also for unwinding and enjoying some downtime. With its vast garden and lively bar, there's always something to do or see, whether you're into surfing or just lounging around. I had an amazing time here and will definitely be returning.

It's just the best hostel to stay at in Varkala! I stayed there many days. It is maybe not the highest standart, but you have a nice common area, you meet a lot of cool people from all over the world. They have some activities to bring you together. We had a great movie night, Jam sessions with the guitar and celebration of Holi, that was a lot of fun. The staff is great and very helpful! Its right in the centre of Varkala.

Great hostel with great staff. Everyone was super welcoming, especially Abi who took us out to local food spots, and Luisa with her yoga recommendations. The rooms were clean and comfortable, the common area was chill and sociable. The hostel is only 5mins away from the cliff, so its close to things but also quiet.

I came for a day and ended up staying for 4, the peaceful vibe of this hostel kept me wanting to extend, perfect place to take meetings and have a workation. The wifi was great! I had no problems with the network. Location is so convenient, away from the crowded area yet walkable to the cliff. I had a great time there. Their balcony has a great view, greenery all around, perfect spot to take work calls from without anyone distrubing. They also have a common kitchen so tea breaks were very convenient.
