    Please arrange staff to carry luggage from the parking area. Because sometimes we have extra luggage and it is difficult to carry till the main area in the evening time.

    The overall vibe is excellent. Very relaxing place and the best part is the beautiful Kundle beach is just 2 min walking distance. We had a tent stay and enjoyed it with friends.

    There could have been more washrooms and bath area. The beds inside the tent was not that good. But is definitely sufficient for a night's stay. A lot of mosquitoes during night time. But coils and Odomos is provided by the hostel.

    The hostel location was very near to the beach. The staff was very friendly and the check-in process was a breeze. The washrooms were quite clean despite all the hostellers using it. Overall I would definitely recommend it to a friend. Bonus : Charlie, the dog is very friendly.

    I had a very bad experience here in this hostel, usually almost in every hostels the host is very welcoming and make us feel comfortable, but that is not the case with this one. The guy who was managing the hostel(molly) acts very weird to the hostellers, he even scaring us telling he will charge for two days if we do not check out within the check out time, he didn’t even give me 5 minutes to apply for a leave online , there is no food or anything available here, dorms are dirty, washrooms stinks, he charges different rates from different people. I was charged 799+gst whereas others I met was charge less than 500rs, there are plenty of options available in Gokarna if you really want to stay away from bad vibes. Many people who stayed there shared similar experiences with me, I am putting this review so that all travellers who wants to have a peaceful stay doesn’t end up in Tusker.

    the crowd who came were good, even thought they were dissapointed with bad vibes in the hostel

    Overall a pretty good experience. Some things I didn't like were that people expect services like if it is a hotel. It is a hostel. You get all the services here. You can order food, get WiFi, but you can't expect the host to pickup your luggage and take to your room. Even then I saw some people just went to their room leaving the luggage at common area and hosts helped. Please understand that There's no coolie service there so one should pack smartly as it's a beach.. terrain is tough.

    I stayed here for 6 days and 5 nights. I was travelling solo and i am glad I stayed there. Kudle beach is perfect location for whoever wants to visit gokarna. Its relatively smaller than main beach and that is the beauty of it. It has ample of sunset and sunrise points nearby. Kudle beach itself is west facing, so you can experience sunsets here. This was my first time traveling solo, my host Harsh Patel was sweet and understanding guy. He helped me throughout the trip and suggested me ways to make trip a better experience for me. He was really helpful. I met a lot of solo travelers at tusker tribe. Everyone was full of energy and loved the vibe here. Its a budget friendly hostel, it was perfect for me as I stayed for long time. All the basic facilities which are required for living, were present. Water did not runout single day at tusker tribe as compared to other hostels where there were water problems. I did not feel lonely at all. I made lot of new friends there, Harsh, Suresh Bhai, Tribhuvan, Molly to name a few among others. All were very pleasant to socialize and this is the soul of tusker tribe. Seeing phytoplanktons was the high point of my trip, which I saw at kudle beach itself.

    There are so many things which is loved about the place. For starters the manager of the Hostel, Molly he is an extremely sweet and live in the moment kind of a person. Then it would be the most friendly dog of the owner, Charlie. And location is cherry of the cake.

    There was nothing that I did not like in this place.

    The place was so close to the beach which made it the perfect dorm to stay in. The place was clean and Gowrav was very gracious. Amazing location, cleaner rooms and meeting different people made my trip!

    The dorm was poorly ventilated with a very small fan for the entire room. I couldn't sleep the entire night due to mosquitoes and humidity, poor ventilation inside the dorm made it claustrophobic.

    The location was good but was a bit in the interiors so anyone with luggage will have a tough time.
