What a wonderful place! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful and more than happy to go above and beyond what was required! We ate at an AMAZING sushi restaurant one block away called 'Fushin.' There is also a park across the street with a view of the bay.

What a wonderful place! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful and more than happy to go above and beyond what was required! We ate at an AMAZING sushi restaurant one block away called 'Fushin.' There is also a park across the street with a view of the bay. We suggest asking for directions first because the street its on is in a google maps "bermuda triangle"
Thanks to Tania and Staff at Hippo Backpackers!
We had an absolute ball in this hostel. we spent a week with tanya and her family which included christmas eve and christmas day. There was 8 in our group including 3 teenagers and 2 eleven year olds. The swimming pool is ideal as is their pool table and satellite tv. On christmas eve Tanya and Herman set up a braai and laid out a beautiful spread of meats, salads and desserts free of charge. We had a wonderful experience in this hostel and the kids were entertained constantly. Best Christmas ever and it was SUNNY.
