5. How far is the hostel from the beaches and main attractions?

We’re located in a lush tropical rainforest area of Nusa Penida, about a 5-10 minute drive from the main beaches and attractions. Because the island doesn’t have rideshare services like Grab or Gojek, you can arrange scooters or taxis with us for easier transport.

We can help arrange transport options (taxi/scooter) from the Harbour (Toyapakeh/Sampalan), just let us know your arrival details and we’ll coordinate it for you.

7. Is Wi-Fi reliable at the hostel?

Yes, we provide free Wi-Fi across the property. Keep in mind island internet quality can vary depending on local service conditions, but most guests find it stable enough for social media and browsing.

8. What about transport around Nusa Penida?

Scooters are the most popular way to explore the island and we offer scooter rentals. Roads can be uneven in places, so please drive safely or ask our team about taxi options if you prefer not to ride.

9. Do you organise tours or island activities?

While we don’t run formal tours, we can help connect you with trusted local operators for snorkelling, diving, guided tours and eco-adventures around Nusa Penida.
