The whole hostels per se is amazing. The location is just unbeatable and there are plenty of chill out areas. The rooms are fine too. You can buy trips and buses at the reception (bangkok, phnom phen, ho chi min, you name it) and you can pay by card, at the bar too! And they even picked me up at the harbor with a boat! A fantastic place!

Everything. This hostel is the best I’ve been in my trip so far. The location is perfect, right by the beach, you can sit down and chill with your feet touching the sand. Matty (the owner) is such a lovely person, he gave me recommendations around the island and he made me feel so comfortable, we had very nice talks. I wish I could have stayed longer there, it was definitely the highlight of my trip.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    I've had a wonderful time at Sara! The bungalow was amazing, I absolutely loved spending time at the day beds and the swimming pool, the food and drinks were great and spending the evenings at the bar was a lot of fun and an easy way to meet new people. Most of all, it were the people working at Sara that made my stay here one I'll never forget. They made me feel very welcome, safe and at home away from home.

    The inclusive breakfasts were delicious, with loads of options available. The location was right on the beach with a lovely view. The owner sent lots of useful info before our stay and gave us a very friendly welcome. Cheap laundry service and free kayaks, paddle boards and snorkels available. Having free water refills was great too. Backpacker style accommodation, good for people who like a social bar.

    Independently owned unlike other non-Khmer owned, chain hostels on the island. The busier evening bars like Onederz can be accessed easily from here, but it's a lot more budget-friendly. It's not fancy but you get what you pay for, a good nights' sleep!

    The Cliff Hostel lives up to its name and more. Both the lodging and bar area sit high up on M'Pai Bay with the common space right on an actual cliff. The setting and nature inspired rustic architecture makes for an extremely cozy place to meet people, have dinner, and watch the sun set. We had a lovely time during our short stay. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Please note, the private rooms are bare bones. Don't expect AC, warm water, or a sink. This is a true backpacker hostel.
