I met awesome people at this hostel. Definitely a great option for a solo traveler because the extras make this hostel a great deal. It is close to the water, has a relaxed atmosphere, and many surfboards including wavestorm 8ft surf boards in great shape. I was able to connect with other gals to go to Road to Hana together, and we held a BBQ in the hostel with the grill that Dominique and Daniel set up. The hosts are very kind and responsive, and their dog is the sweetest dog you will ever meet.
I also appreciate the proximity to the water because this beach is a great beginner beach. Food wise, the kitchen is well stocked and there were large food items provided to share with all the guests like oatmeal/pancake mix/rice/flour etc.
Since there are two bathrooms for 8+ people then sometimes you have to wait, but people are considerate and the wait isn’t too bad. I was able to find quiet places to see the sunset from in the yard and appreciate that they had a ukulele for us to use.
