Great location being right on the beach with locals selling souvenirs on the brief walk to the next hostel. There were beach chairs and hammocks to chill out on. Super warm and friendly hostel and diving staff. The 12 bed dorm room was spacious with clean and comfortable bunk beds. Although I was told that I was lucky to be in my room due to the fact the other dorm room had reported bed bugs. Standard breakfast with toast, butter, jam, cereals, tea, coffee and juice. Free 1/2 hour of wireless with computer facilities available for use. If you ordered al a carte, the seafood was really fresh (you see the property owner come in every morning and night with his catch for the restaurant) and tasty but it might be a bit too expensive for those on a budget.

Our room was spacious and had a private bathroom which was nice. On the terrace you have an awesome view over the ocean. The entertainment-programm inside the evening might seem a bit cheesy, but just go along with it, it&'s fun. The hammocks were nice. And you can rent snorkeling gear for a great price.

The staff were amazing- really friendly and organised lots of no cost activities; including volleyball, bracelet making and themed evenings. Lots of singing and guitar playing every single night! Mana island is stunning and not full of backpackers, which I found to be a refreshing, having spent a few months in loud hostels. The food was exceptional at the resort and a stunning beach right outside. (however, far better beaches on Mana are survivor and sunset, just a brief walk away) We had such a exceptional time here, so comforting and would definitely go back!

A stunning hostel on mana island. The employees is superb and often really helpfull. The food is really value for money and just tastes really good. you often get no cost water and ice cubes if you like. the facilities and dorms are really simple but clean. really day you can do no cost activities or guided tours. the environment is great!

We stayed in the 'deluxe' rooms which turned out not to have electricity between 8am-5pm which was a bit annoying for midday heat. however the beach is a 2 mins walk, right where the main hostel bit is and in the mornings the sea is BEAUTIFUL! There's no jellyfish or anything. Ratu is great for scuba diving but im not too interested in that and the hostel offers a great variety of activities such as fishing, island hopping and themed nights! beware of lots of mozzies though! also there is no independant shop/supermarket on the island so have to buy everything from the hostel however it's not too expensive. drinking is a little though
