I loved the hospitality, the value for money and the great vibe in the hostel. All the people were amazing and we ended up going on a private boat tour with everyone from the hostel. Wonderful memories, I highly reccomend.

Excellent stay with great location. We had pleasent 2 night stay in quirky and charming house. Super host Katarina with her tips regarding our needs. House is located close to city centre and that was our main goal for short stay. On the other hand it was far from noisy part of the town. We chilled during breakfast on small front patio hanging out on hammock and watching interesting live of Bocas. Kitchen is well equipped and overall very interesting furnitures and styl of house gave us amazing impression. Highly recommended for everyone. We stayed in room nr 1 and we very happy with our stay.

Great location and if you like to party it is the perfect spot to meet new people. Also, everyday new activities and you should make sure to be at the Filthy Friday party (everyone around is coming and the whole hostel is packed!).

The location is perfect, just one min away from Bocas town. The hostel got a lot of potential, keep in mind is a party hostel so it's very loud, but if you are looking to meet new people this is the right place.
