At a short distance from the beach, Slow Hostel provides a tranquil and welcoming ambience, with free WiFi in the common areas. Popular restaurants can be reached within walking distance.

Dormitories at Slow Hostel contain both bunk beds with a shared bathroom and private rooms as well. They offer tiled floors and basic linen. Some are equipped with a fan or air conditioning.

Probably the best hostel I’ve ever stayed at. Really quiet, relaxed, clean and organised. everything makes sense and the staff are really focused on minimising our impact on the environment. Bed was comfortable, room was big, and well ventilated with sunlight, shower was good with proper pressure, the kitchen facilities were great with everything you need, and there are loads of chill-out spaces to rest. Everything is spotlessly clean and disinfected and there are alcohol gel stations around the place. They also have lots of information and recommendations of what to do locally, depending on the time of day.

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.
