Everything! People, staff, facility, and location. Everyone is so friendly, they treat you like a friend and family rather just a profession. The facility is also good, has everything you need and always clean, the staff look after it very well! The location is great, not far from laundry. Even getting into the town isn't that far, and it is in a quiet area.

Staff were friendly and the pool was a nice touch. They helped us hire a bike for two days and book onto an island hopping tour. The beds were comfy and it didn't feel like you were in a 20 bed dorm. Everyone was respectful and quiet.

Quelli United Kingdom

Stayed here for about 4 weeks in total and loved it (obviously)! The staff is the best, so welcoming, fun and friendly! They have a lot of activities and events but it’s still quiet at 9 if you want to sleep early. So far the most social place I’ve stayed! Even though it’s 18 people dorm and no curtains the rooms are spacious and it doesn’t feel that crowded. Also big lockers under the beds with space for all your stuff. Looking forward to being back one day!

The Hostel itself is really great, the little cafe has a lot of choice, they are very conscious about the environment and the staff is very helpful if you want to join their activities, get advices on where to eat, rent a scooter, get surfing lessons and so on. I definetely recommend!

This is my favourite hostel so far in a four month trip. The staff are AMAZING, so friendly and helpful. Don’t be put off by the dorm sizes, it felt less crowded than others with far less beds! The cafe has really good breakfast/lunch options for affordable prices. They do group dinners to local restaurants and dinner and party at the hostel once a week. You can walk to Cloud 9 but will need a scooter to get everywhere else. As a solo traveller Hiraya was perfect as everyone was super chill and welcoming :)

8 months travelling around the world I haven’t seen a hostel like this. I was feeling at home from the first minute when I arrived at the Hiraya. The staff knows your name from the minute you check-in and they are very caring. No matter the request - they’ll find a solution. I just love how they are like a big chosen family and make you feel like you’re a part of it. I was a bit nervous about the 18 beds in one dorm but everybody in the hostel is very attentive - once the lights are off at 10PM, people would only tiptoe around with their flashlights on. Had the best sleep in those comfy beds. Also, the rooms and facilities were super clean. I’m gonna miss this place and its people big times!
