    I had an amazing time staying at this hostel. The staff were extremely attentive and made sure I had everything I needed. The hotel facilities were great, especially the big bunk beds and the awesome Italian restaurant. The location was perfect for surfers of all levels, with many surf points nearby. The hotel also provided transportation to the surf spots, which was really convenient. The breakfast was delicious and the hotel was very clean. I had a fantastic experience thanks to the friendly staff, great facilities, and convenient location.

    For us, it was ideal.

    The open mic night at the Italian pizza restaurant provided a great vibe with talented musicians and comedians. The audience enjoyed eating pizza and drinking arrack, creating a lively atmosphere.

    Bad Wifi, crowded dorm room, and limited hot water for showers.

    I had a fantastic stay at Surfing Wombats for 5 nights. The owners were very friendly and cancelling my reservation was no hassle at all. The garden area was lovely and great for meeting other travelers. The beach was just a 5-minute walk away, perfect for a quick dip. Staying in the tent was a unique and enjoyable experience, with cool nights and a cozy atmosphere. The restaurant had amazing pizza and created a social and relaxed vibe. I can't wait to return!

    Would recommend this hotel.
