This is a great beach side hostel. I really enjoyed my stay here. The beds were massive with a lot of space inside your capsule area. And I'm tall so it worked for me. The property was very clean and the bathroom/shower area was really good. The only downside is that you cant cook aside from using the microwave but the restaraunt attached is great and the staff are amazing. We felt really welcomed. I would recommend adding the breakfast to your stay. I didn't get to try the burgers but they look so tasty so we will be back for those!!
You can hear footsteps on the rooftop deck above the hostel but otherwise the place is super quiet and relaxing. Such a nice feel and even played music from New Zealand which i was very happy with. Just be prepared for plastic on the beach, but otherwise the water is meters away from the accomodation and the water is so clear and the snorkeling is great too. If you're in the area definately stay here.

We came before the season kicked off so it was quiet with very little open. Thank goodness for the hotel’s restaurant & bar. The food is exceptionally good and the owner & staff are incredible. The beach walk is stunningly beautiful. Again we were there pre-season so there was a lot of washed up garbage on the beach and construction getting it cleaned up for the upcoming season. The lodgings are right off the beach which makes for a great welcome when you open the door in the morning. Just a note that the toilet and shower facilities are shared. They are clean and well maintained so it’s not an issue, it just came as a surprise to us so thought I’d make note of it.

Great hostel!
It was a one-night short stay but the beds were pretty comfy. Plus waking up next to the beach is amazing, nothing beats a morning swim in the sea.

AWESOME hostel!!! Located ON a quiet local beach, with a super patio on the rooftop and on the beach itself. The general vibe is funky, cozy and chill. The hostel is spotlessly clean and fresh, feels like a nice expensive 5 Stars hotel. 10 minutes walk from the nearest train station, and 30 seconds from the ocean!
Most importantly - The hostel owner and the staff are beyond fantastic, treated me like their own friend and next thing we knew....we were all drinking together around a bonfire having a great time, owning the entire beach to ourselves for the rest of the night.....it was magical!
Coming to stay at Beach Side Village is a destination itself, I will be back again with friends just to stay here again! Thank you for the genuine hospitality :)
