We stayed in a private room and found the place clean overall and most of all, the staff is always available and very helpful and not cold/rude like in some 2/3 stars hotels in China What we liked: - By far n°1, is the staff. Chris especially was very nice, helpful and always available (even prevented us from spending money... More

I am sure everything had been mentioned by all the other reviewers. So if you feel like meeting new people, Chillex at the beach, Walk throught rain forest as well as drinking beer Chris's way then definitely the place to go. The location is good for food and beach and Chris know the ins and outs of Hainan. It is... More

All in all an amazing experience; the staff were extremely hospitable and went out of their way to make us feel at home, the rooms were immaculate, and the location was ideal. I will most certainly be returning in the future! Thank you Chris, Linda (and Mimi) for looking after us! :D

Had a fantastic time in Sanya, thanks to Chris and Linda. They have set up the perfect place to attract outgoing and intrepid travellers, and the atmosphere and events really encourages mingling. Definitely say yes to drinking beer Chris' way, and the Chris-special rainforest trip is well worth it on a nice day (as long as you can survive the... More

Great hostel: Chris and Linda make sure they know all their guests and greet you by name. The facilities are good, everything is immaculately clean, and there always seems to be a good social atmosphere. I've done a thousand nights hostelling and this has to be as good as any I've stayed at. A criticism: the add on facilities are... More

I stayed in a double room for 4 nights(they upgraded it from single room) and dorm for one night due to private rooms fully booked. very impressed by the comfortable bed, I mean, the beddings feels so clean and comfy, kinda can smell the sunshine while sleeping :) The floor feels super clean. Dormitory is also better than most of... More

I enjoy my hamburger and chips dinner, you should try it, being back in Hong Kong now I am still thinking of the hamburger and chip. Very difficult to get great hamburger and great chip in China. The full occupancy of... More
