I loved staying at SEA-esta, the hosts were so kind and had done up the room beautifully, it really felt like a little home for the few days. Before I travelled over, the island had been hit by a cyclone and the power was down, Himali and Nate were so good at keeping me informed of any updates which was much appreciated and let me know as soon as the power came back so I could get to the island for my first night. As I'm sure they had a lot more pressing things going on, this communication was so helpful and kind. I would highly recommend staying here. Location is great as well, I could walk from the Ferry and there was a bus stop close by if needed too.

Best hostel I’ve ever stayed in!!! Incredible vibes from the chill reception area, the natural pool surrounded by hammocks, to the lighted walkways over a stream. I wish I had spent more time chilling at this awesome hostel. Dorm Cabins had bathrooms, lockers, and plugs for each bed. Everything was really clean

Cute caravan with a nice cosy space inside for 2 people. Free laundry available. The owner was kind enough to give us a lift to the ferry terminal after checkout. The bathroom is clean and the shower has hot water. Good location, bus stops nearby to get around the other bays in the island. Short walk to grocery store and to good food and coffee.

Location was good. This is not the Taj Mahel but then again you are not paying for that. What you do get is a compact room with everything you need for your stay. And importantly, it is very clean and quiet. Very comfy bed that fitted my 6’5” frame without my feet hanging out the end! Owner obviously cares for her clients as there was a couple of nice surprises in the fridge. At this price point you will not find better on the island.
