Our stay in this hostel was the best we had in our whole travel! The volunteers and staff were amazing! The breakfast is custom-made and even when we slept in because we partied the night before they left us our breakfast in the fridge! The common areas are unbeatable (pool, tree house, bar, 2 usable kitchens, outdoor gym coming soon) and the room was very clean with air-conditioning. There are always 3 super sweet cats around to cuddle with and every now and then monkeys pass by. The bar has delicious affordable drinks and the restaurant offers amazing and super cheap vegan and vegetarian food! Highly recommend this place!

Guys, if you're ever in need of a hostel with an epic sea view, look no further! Just stayed at this gem with hammocks and it was EVERYTHING. Not only was it spacious and clean, but Marcos, the dude in charge, was the cherry on top - super friendly, receptive, and cool. Made my stay 10x better. Will definitely be back and highly recommend this spot!

    The host Sandra is amazing and even took us on a hike to a waterfall and then to gamboa beach, it was a great afternoon ! No airconditioning but fresh enough for me (AC in brasil is so strong everywhere, it was good to be here) and there were fans, great location near the first beach and easy access to the other beaches. Not so many mosquitos.

    Great location; amazing hostel staff - particularly Ivan who is always there to help, answer any questions or just talk. Very easy to meet other travellers because of the whatsapp group and generally great facilities for a hostel! Also very clean - the daily room cleans are a god-send given the amount of sand.

    Owner is so friendly, he goes out of his way to make you comfortable. Has a great view and lots of hammocks and places to chill over 3 levels. Is close to praia 1 and 2 and the light house viewpoint which are the most popular spots. Also 10 minute walk to the ferry. Great location compared to other hostels

    Amazing and unique stay in the middle of the jungle! This is probably the best hostel I’ve ever been to. completely eco friendly, vegan breakfast, surrounded by nature and with amazing and welcoming staff. Though walk up to the hostel may seem long at first (10 minutes from the main square), it is always worth it. So nice to see the a different face of Morro. The bed and accommodation areas are spacious and toilets were separated to avoid noise from others. Would definitely return soon.
