I had the pleasure of staying at an incredible hostel in Kochi, and I can’t recommend it enough. The location was absolutely perfect, close to all the key tourist spots, charming cafes and everything you’d want to explore in the heart of Kochi. But what really made the experience special was the host, Niaz. He’s just incredible. You can tell he genuinely cares about his guests and goes out of his way to make sure you’re comfortable. Nothing was ever too much for him: whether it was tips on where to go, help with anything I needed or just making you feel welcome. He’s the kind of host that makes you feel at home even when you’re miles away from yours.

Santa maria was such a great hostel. I booked 2 nights and ended up staying for a week, then I went back to celebrate Onam festival with everyone. The location is perfect, the staff are amazing, they serve free breakfast every morning and they have the most adorable dog. Great for solo travellers. I met a lot of people there. Next I went and stayed in Santa Maria, Munro island which was also lovely. NO1 Santa Maria fan !! THANKS GUYS

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.

    Good location, good staffs. When I reached to the hostel, they wanted to suggest me another option of the lower bunk bed in another mix dormitory(Ⅰbooked 1 Lady dorm but already occupied lower bunk beds). More over, after arguing with other inns, when I was suddenly told that I wanted to come back here, I was warmly welcomed immediately.
