Übernachten im Paradies

Eines der schönsten Hostels, in denen ich jemals übernachtet hatte. Die Lage ist zauberhaft: direkt an einem paradiesischen Strand und fußläufig von Restaurants und Cafés. Parken kann man kostenfrei auf der Straße. Von den nahegelegenen Felsen kann man sowohl einen zauberhaften Sonnenaufgang als auch -untergang bewundern. Einziges Manko in den Zimmern: es gibt keine abschließbaren Spinde und keine Vorhänge an den Betten.
