Comfortable, inviting, and super clean rooms!

Newly converted into a modern accommodation complex, Vila Backpackers has dormitory style rooms (each with own bathroom) downstairs, and hotel style rooms (with shared bathrooms) upstairs.
The upstairs rooms have super comfortable beds and good aircon, and the whole place has reliable wifi.
All guests have the use of a small shared kitchen with fridge where simple meals can be made. (There is a decent supermarket less than 10 mins walk away.) Alternatively, you can order a tasty breakfast or a simple meal at a reasonable price. The upstairs open-air bar area is perfect for chilling out with a cool drink!
All the staff are super friendly and helpful. You'll find the Kiwi owner and British manager more than accommodating and willing to suggest places to go and see.
