    Nothing it was the best

    Book this place now TRUST ME it will not disappoint ! I was told that penida project was THE place to be in Nusa Penida and that couldn’t of been more accurate. It has the perfectly balanced vibe, with a mix of chill nights and lively nights planned out throughout the week. The food is amazing, the people are amazing, the owners are ABSOLUTE gems.❤️ I made such good memories with the people I met there, honestly the highlight of my trip. Best vibes love you guys

    Just be aware that you’ll need a scooter to get around, taxis can be expensive. But a lot of people you meet here will happily give you a lift and it’s easy to get taxis from the hostel too.

    Loved the property and the staff! So helpful and friendly, the vibe is great and you have everything you need including lots of delicious food. I had such a good time I ended up staying for 3 extra days. Also the resident doggos are so lovely and cute.

    It's a little far from restaurants but they serve food on the premise. Road already got improved but there is still one bumpy part.

    Great atmosphere Daily activities Facilities still new Staff very friendly and helpful I checked out 6 hostels on Nusa Penida and this one was by far the best

    Bathroom a little away from the room..helpful if a mirror was in the room.

    The hotel is in a lovely secluded location, 8 minutes from the main road. The road in part to the hostel is very rough, however the hostel is aiming to improve its condition..The dorm beds are very comfortable with curtains for privacy. Very clean facilities. Pool is wonderful. The staff friendly and helpful. Kitchen produces healthy meals at a reasonable cost. Bathroom clean with good water pressure in shower hot and cold.

    It would be nice if they had breakfast included to the price, even if this would mean a higher rate.

    Everything was absolutely perfect! One of the nicest hostels I have ever been to! Super nice oasis in the middle of the forest (even if you initially have the impression it's "far" away, you're only 7 mins away from the main road by bike - probably even less once the road has been completely asphalted). Very clean and modern facilities and a huge swimming pool! I wish I could have stayed even longer there.

    The Location isn't the best and you should feel comfortable riding a scooter on a gravel road. If you don't ride a scooter you'll have to eat at the Hostel as their is nothing else close by.

    Very comfortable beds with privacy, very clean bathrooms. Beautiful outdoor area around the pool and great food. Easy scooter Rental, the stuff is really friendly and always there to help you.

    The road to get there is pretty rough, but they said it will be built soon.

    Great place in the Jungle. Ambience let's you meet with other travellers and the events they have makes this place feel like home away from home 😄.
