Best place ever”
I had an incredibly memorable stay here on Malapascua while solo travelling. The girls here managed to get all the guests to become friends straight away, by inviting us to the beach on the north side of the island- and then later on we played drinking jenga (hilarious, you have to try it) with jugs of rum and coke and went out together and kept exploring the island together over the next few days. We went to the disco and to karaoke, and they showed us all around the island. Definitely the cheapest hostel on the island, but excellently located, just next to the marker which had good, cheap food. Hostel had a stove, sink and kettle + cooking utensils & pots, and loads of cups, plates and cutlery so easy to make/heat your own food too. Such a good place, I would come back to Malapascua just to visit this hostel again and see my friends! Nilma & Divina are hilarious, and the absolute best hosts! Cheers guys!

Its was a nice place, whit small room on bamboo, or dormotory, but all its very clean, and the hotes, are very friendly, and they put us very confortable, for everything. For backpackers or in couple whit the small house/room, its very nice, i recommand. Tks

Ok overpriced island”
Noisy, dirty bathroom, no toilet paper when you really need it. Instead of cleaning the one and only bathroom and keepung it sticked with paper staff is on cell phones doing whatever.power went out, no water for shower or toilet half a day.not acceptable.i guess on an overpriced island like malapascua its ok, but id spend a little more and get something else.

Perfect place to stay, very clean ”
I booked for 2 nights and then extended it for another 3. The first night I had whole dorm to myself :) The dorm is spacious, has bathroom attached with hot shower. Lockers in the room, you just need your own padlock. WiFi works very well. Common area very nice, there are even hammocks. The girl from the reception, Nilma, is very friendly and helpful. She will assist you with anything you need. She even helped me to get some books from another place, when I wanted to read :) She takes care of the place so it's very clean and tidy. I will definitely recommend this place for travellers!!

Nice stay but broken aircon leading to unfortunate event”
I had such a nice stay at the hostel. Warm shower & good WiFi but unfortunately the aircon wasn’t working and it was too hot to sleep without the door open. My dorm had become comfortable with the island & each other. The hostel had provided lockers ... but no locks. Just some advice ... don’t become comfortable and keep your things in lockers & lock the doors. The incident that happened I felt wasn’t dealt with very well, I had messaged for information but I didn’t receive a reply on the last one. These things happen, it was such a shame that it did

New hostel very clean and quiet”
Due is a New hostel they are still constucting some rooms or improving the kitchen. So maybe you won't be a le to use the kitchen or the common bathroom (in case of the bungalows). I stayed in a bunk bed. The room was very pretty. The toilet has a separated shower which was good. And cleaner than Other hostel I stayed the first night (romántic place, very dirty and disgusting toilet). Its going to be very beautifull when completely finished.

Excellent”
The airconditioning unit wasn't working. During my stay, though it's clearly understandable on how understaffed they were, there were cases of theft in the room where I stayed alongside other guests. But the value for money is really a good catch still because they had everything in their mini kitchen. The staff were courteously great and warm.

Not worth for what you pay. ”
it's on one ceiling fan & 1 standing in the dorm room. the bed was not nicely clean it after check out by other traveler. That's still plenty of nice backpacker hub in Malapascua within this price range. Hence, I wouldn't recognize this hostel.

Excellent place”
This place was so nice to stay in. It's very new so extremely functional and clean facilities, but not very social. Actually there was only one other guest there at the same time as me. I really do recommend this place though as the host is very welcoming and kind, and the place is just in great condition. There's a common area outside too with hammocks. The place has great potential, just needs more guests ;)

No communication”
I didn't end up staying at this guesthouse cause I didn't make it to the island in that night, however, when I tried to contact the guesthouse to see if anything could be done about it it was impossible to reach them. I'd recommend updating the phone number or something..

Homey but needs more care”
Place was homey. I felt comfortable. Common area was laid back and chill to hang out. The shared room bathroom door's lock is damaged. Bed too shaky. Better to add curtains in low bunk beds to give a bit of privacy 😁
