人生青年旅舍 (La Vida Hostel Samal Island)

Great place with great staff

El Hostel La Vida es una joya en Samal que une arte y naturaleza de una forma excepcional. Quedamos encantados con la atención y el cuidado al detalle de Ninio durante nuestra estadía de una semana. Los desayunos son deliciosos, en especial las tostadas francésas, y el ambiente artístico que envuelve el lugar es impresionante. El trato del dueño, Ninio, que también es artista, hace que la experiencia sea aún más auténtica y acogedora. Admiramos su arte expuesto por todo el hostel, lo que añade un toque personal y único. La Vida está muy bien ubicado cerca del pueblo de Peñaplata, en el corazón de la Isla Samal, lo que facilita el alquiler de una moto para explorar todos los rincones de la isla. Para quienes buscan un ambiente acogedor, con buena comida y un fuerte sentido artístico, La Vida Hostel es el lugar perfecto. ¡Muy recomendado para una estancia inolvidable!

La Vida Hostel is a cozy retreat that stands out in Samal Island. Ninio, the owner and artist, wowed us with his dedication and warm hospitality. The hostel feels like a live-in gallery, surrounded by nature's beauty. Breakfasts here are fantastic – don't miss out on the French toast! The place has a chilled-out vibe that's perfect for kicking back after exploring the island. Plus, it's super close to Peñaplata town, making it easy to rent a scooter and go on an adventure. If you're into art, good food, and friendly faces, La Vida is the spot. It's a simple, welcoming place that's ideal for soaking up the local scene. Definitely worth the stay!

La Vida Hostel on Samal Island is a unique spot that perfectly blends creativity and the great outdoors. We spent a week there and were blown away by the staff, especially Ninio, whose help and eye for detail really made our stay special. The rooms are super comfy with warm beds and always hot water, which was a treat. The breakfasts are amazing too – you've got to try the Filipino Longanisa with Rice and the French Toast. The coconut jam that sometimes comes with it was a new and tasty surprise for me. I'd definitely recommend La Vida Hostel if you're looking for a relaxed place to stay with a creative twist and great value for money. It's a great home base for exploring Samal Island or just chilling out.

The place is cozy. The breakfast is self-service. Although, the hostel is quite far from the city so you need to travel a bit. The bathroom is also small but if you are not that picky, this may not be an issue for you.
