Award-winning Hostel located a 4- Minute walk from Anjuna Beach, a perfect spot for backpackers, yoga enthusiasts and world- travellers.

Rooms: We provide different options of fully furnished AC- private rooms, clean and modern AC- dorms, as well as a girl's dorm

Fantastic hostel! I've spent close to two years living in hostels and this one is among the best I've been to. Great hangout area, really nice staff and always a great vibe. The food was delicious, especially the chicken burger. If you're here to drink i highly recommend having the eight finger local beer, delicious IPA. Scooters exist for good prices at the hostel and if they are all rented there are two places just outside the door that have more for rent. The location is close to all the major parties and famous beaches! With a scooter you can also easily get to Arambol and surrounding beaches (very well worth day trip). Beds were really comfy. I stayed for a week and will never forget this place!

Gaia is one of my favorite hostels I’ve visited so far. From the moment I walked in I was welcomed by the nicest staff and crowd. Everyone is very sociable and they made me feel at home right away.☺️ The whole property looks amazing and has a very peaceful vibe to it, they have a big garden with loads of plants and with different kinds of chill spots to hang out. They maintain the place really well and keep everything neat and clean, and they serve very yummy food.😋 I kept extending my stay here because I didn’t want to leave the lovely people and the good vibes. Thank you for the great experience and I will definitely visit again when I come to Goa again.❤️

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.

    1. Location - quiet and peaceful area, but at the same time walking distance from main Candolim road 2. Private entrance to the beach, just 2min walk from the property. The beach is very less crowded, and quite clean. 3. The hosts are very accommodating. They also provide Bike and taxi services. 4. The villa had all the basic amenities, including refrigerator, A/C, Induction and basic utensils. 5. The area even though a bit remote, felt very safe. 6. You can also get Zomato, Swiggy and Blink It deliveries here.

    We had fantastic time in Albuquerque. Great location, close to the beach with nice garden and pool. The room itself was nice and spacious, cleaned daily. It was possible to do the laundry at the property and they even provide a simple cheap breakfast. The most exceptional was the service of the staff, everyone was lovely and very supportive.

    I had an extended stay of 8 nights. During which, all the staff especially Kevin at the reception were very helpful. The rooms and washroom were clean. And the location of the hostel is near the beach with good cafes and restaurants nearby, which is an added plus point. Also, there is a taxi/ scooty rental just across the road. I would rate it 8 or 9 out of 10. Its definitely, one of the best places to stay in Candolim, Goa if you are on a budget.
