The property organises a variety of activities, such as boat trips, car hire and there is cliff jumping and other adventure activities in the area. Aqualand Water Park is a 35-minute walk from the hostel.

Hostal Atlanta was perfect for the price and the staff was really really helpful and nice. Recommend it for travelers who need an uncomplicated and cozy place to sleep. Its close to the beach and easy to reach by bus from the airport. Will definitely visit again.

Brand new and beautifully thought out. Beds comfy, love the lockers and showers excellent. Staff so helpful. On bus routes from the city and airport, but you can walk to the airport if you don’t want to pay for a taxi out of hours! Close to the beach and loads of restos. Towel hire super useful! And stay was a bargain.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is 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 bit more.

    The staff is very attentive, flexible and kind. The breakfast selection is small but fine for the price. They are kid friendly. We felt quite safe and we checked in very late at night and it was not a problem. They had everything ready for us.

    Perfect budget hotel for a short stay on the island. Great location to the beach and bus stop right in front of the hotel. Friendly and helpful staff ( Lander at reception) and the ladies at the breakfast made my stay great!

    The family-owned hostel, great atmosphere. They are always happy to answer your questions and give some advice. Location is good! They also provide cheap breakfasts there what is quite important as to find some open cafes at 8 o´clock in the morning is not that easy.

    It was a better place than I expected. The host was friendly and very helpful, one of the best if not the best hostel I stayed at ever. The room and the balcony were big all for me. It is literally a 1-minute walk from the beach, with plenty of restaurants and stores in the area. The breakfast was great, fresh, and plenty.
