Eco Hostel VELA VEGA

The setting was beautiful and it was close to the sea.

“Vollkatastrophe”

The location was close to the beach, but the shower didn’t drain, the toilet flush was broken, there was a large mold spot on the ceiling in the bathroom, no fly screens on a window or the exterior door, and there were insects everywhere. No warning said that there were no shops within at least 12 km, no bus stop nearby, and taxis only came after a long pre‑order. There was essentially no infrastructure, so without a car you had to rely on the host, who only went shopping once a week and offered a €10 daily meal that included about 20 old jam jars she claimed she didn’t know the condition of, leftovers in cereal jars, a bit of fruit, all somewhat old, but nothing fresh like cauliflower or a special fruit that she said was reserved for herself and that volunteer. She initially said she had already bought everything needed, but later she said you could only eat cooked food except tomatoes (though I prefer raw food). On the first night she cooked something decent, but she served me too much of her cooked food. She then told me I had to eat the rest at breakfast, which I thought was a joke but she was serious. If I didn’t, she would eat my leftovers for breakfast. The host didn’t care about guests’ well‑being, seemed annoyed by questions, demands, and expectations, was totally lacking empathy, and somewhat short‑sighted. She didn’t have many guests, the house was mostly empty. I booked two weeks but left on day 4, heavily traumatized, by taxi. I had already paid for nine more days as an involuntary donation. She didn’t respond to any requests.

“Peaceful place to disconnect from everything”

The terrace was beautiful and the beach was easy to reach, but I would have liked to know how many mosquitoes there were so I could bring lotion.

The proximity to the beach and the whole area were simply great.

I don’t know where to start – the house is gigantic, the garden is beautiful despite the ongoing drought, the location is superb, the beach is almost empty, and Siri and Ingrid are just charming. Even though we were mostly for ourselves, it felt like family!
