I stayed in one of the private garden bungalows for two weeks. It was super cute and comfy; the owner is absolutely lovely, as are the girls working there. I loved my stay!

The staff were very welcoming, always available and quick to respond. There is hot water, but you can't adjust the temperature. The kitchen has tap water for refilling bottles, and there's a nice high‑level common area too. The private room is a bit small, but that wasn't a problem since I only had a small backpack. However, it's a bamboo hut with no insulation, so don't expect to be surrounded by four walls like a dorm; still, the spot is great because there aren't many scooters passing by, and you’ll hear the coques and dogs nearby.

I strongly recommend this homestay; the dorm is excellent! Very clean, ideally located on the island, and the owners are super kind and welcoming.

The mosquito net was helpful since there were holes in the walls and at the door. The walls are made of bamboo, so there's no sound insulation and the environment is noisy.
