Reviews

This is not the place for a good night's sleep after a long day. Someone banged the drums loudly until almost midnight and the staff didn't bother, after that a group of drunks started shouting in the common area until almost 4 am in the morning and the staff didn't bother either. No towels, WIFI doesn't work in the accommodation only in the common area, bed is very hard but some might like that.

Felt homey, had a beautiful view of the ocean, and sweet animals!
-
Everything was chaotic. Direction were improper. Tried to contact them, nobody answered the phone. I was really thinking that this is one of the scammers . I will never recommend to no one
-
When you don't have transport it was very far to get to places.
-
The sharing bathrooms but next time ill book one with my own private bathroom
-
The views from the balcony in the lounge area are spectacular. The dorm beds were comfortable. The bathrooms were nice and spacious. The staff were warm and welcoming. This place felt like a home away from home for me. There was nothing I didn't like.

The view is the highlight of the place. Man it is beautiful. The breakfast is fruits, and basic porridge and normal quick coffee. So dont expect bacon and eggs. But if that is all you need to start your day then it is perfect. The staff are all very friendly and helpful with any requests. There are some small things they can do to add great value to the place. For instance, put up a mirror or two in some of the communal bathrooms (women will love it). Maybe a bit more focused cleaning in the one main bathroom in the house. A simple hook or nail in the wooden wall at the outside toilet sink, will make it handy to hang something on the wall. Just some attention to some details that could make it a bit more practical and functional.

Peaceful

Staff are great! View is excellent. Breakfast filled the gap :-) Having fruit available is a good touch. Lock on room door was dodgy—I had to ask for a different key. But that fixed the problem.

sharing toilets, no extra linen, Linen bad quality

I liked the concept of WILD being real and roughing it was the rule. The restaurant was poorly stocked for the evening meal and we were left with very few options to choose from
-
Awesome view! A bit of a trek up to the location.
-
-the best view ever -rooms get hot and there’s no fan -showers are iffy -has a lot of potential but is still mostly a bargain
-
Disappointing
-
Nice place with the perfect views. The breakfast is good and facilities as well. It is a long way to get to the place, but the views are amazing.
-
Wifi in the rooms instead. Shower water was uncontrollable, either too cold or too hot. Frogs and Spiders and dogs, phobia.
