A perfect getaway if you want to have access to the beach and not the hassle of people like the beach side property. The outdoor dastarkhan (a short table with beds on all sides ) with the lights is just breathtaking to just sit , have a drink and just chat with other travellers. The whole stay has a homely vibe to it, and the host Sakhi is such a warm person to interact with.

A really really cute hostel, with lovely architecture! Rooms and beds were really comfy, and the AC was incredible! Great location for tourist needs, good food nearby, and a cheap Uber to the palace etc. Space to sit outside and in the common area, as well as having great kitchen facilities and dining area! The security guard on 24/hrs made us feel super safe and was also a great character, always willing to chat and hang out with us despite not knowing much english, he was a great laugh and asset to the place!

Just like how a hostel should be, and not like what the national chains have become. so for backpackers looking for hostels, this one is decent.

I loved Trippr. The Managers and Volunteers, Praveen Mathew and Praveen Babu, and now a volunteer, Darshan, they are the best. Best friends for a backpacker. The Hostel is right in front of the beach, you can stay in Tent, open it and see the beach, take a dip, take a shower and chill. Loved it

The best part of this property was its location- amidst the coffee plantation and forests. It gives the feeling of a homestay within a hostel. The second best thing about this property is its founder - Sandip - what an amazing host, and a humble man, he will take you on a guided tour of the estate, talk about nature and tell you true stories of life thrilling Ladakh experiences. He won’t even shy away to take your orders. The food was amazing. In short, the best hostel in Coorg. And, my best hostel experience ever.
