    The breakfast is a bit basic. Please use plates instead of prison trays! Scooter rental really overpriced.

    Good location. Good facilities. Friendly staff. Not too party but the perfect amount of social. We met some amazing people here and made great memories. The free organised hostel activities were really great!

    Nice hostel, well located, close to shops and short walk to the beach, always clean and tidy, modern design, many activities as yoga every morning, movie night, beach walks. The amenities are as mentioned. Everything working properly. The staff is the best, so so friendly!

    There wasn't hot water in the showers during my stay (or at least - during the times I used the showers), but I know there are problems with water availability and electricity in Port Barton in general.

    I loved this place. Very clean, friendly staff, lots of activities on offer, a cosy communal area, and cute pets! The bed was comfy and there are hooks in the dorm room to hang up your towel - so many places don't have hooks!

    Only 3 showers for 32 beds and not much privacy on the toilet, since it’s not completely closed and in the hallway.

    Sweetest staff ever! Nice rooms, doesn’t feel like you are in a room with that many people. Really good island tour, recommendable!

    Nothing really, it’s less than 10 mins to port barton beach area, which for PB can seem a bit long (lol)

    Had pretty much everything you needed for a great stay - happy hour drinks, organised activities / tours (great boat trip tour) and v comfortable beds. Only had 1 day with a cold shower which I didn’t really mind anyway. Random but their drinking water is super cold which was v appreciated

    They may have recently painted the dorm rooms as there was quite an intense chemical smell in the dorm which made it difficult to sleep as the smell was so overpowering. Unsure if this was paint or cleaning products but it was very intense.

    Very clean, access to the main town / beach is about a five minute walk.

    More of a quiet hostel, not too social in the evenings. Found the breakfast abit pricy. Had to pay an extra 50pesos just to have black coffee if you don’t take it with milk.

    very confortable clean hostel, not too bad for the price. Nice social events, loved the yoga! Only a 5 mins walk into the main town.

    There are only two hot showers to share between a lot of people and the toilets don’t offer much privacy. The seating area in the courtyard could be comfier.

    The atmosphere is brilliant and there are daily activities to get involved in. Good location and comfy beds.

    I had the feeling the hostel might be trying to become a bit more “party”. Might just be my feeling but I hope they won’t because as said right now it’s a really nice vibe :)

    Super nice and social hostel, without being a party hostel. The common area is really nice to hang out and meet other travelers and there is always activities planned during the week, in case you feel like joining. Overall just a great vibe. The shared bathrooms were kept really clean and the staff was super helpful and friendly. We stayed here for 4 nights in a private, can’t say anything about the dorms ;) The location is a tad bit away from the “center” but really not a problem in my opinion. Port Barton is quite small afterall :)

    The room was way too big (too many beds) which doesn’t come through on the booking. The activities, like barbecue are relatively expensive.

    Very nice and social hostel. Great activities. Close to everything in town.

    The energy of people staying and volunteers is super nice.

    The property is pretty new and beautiful. They are still keeping up with renovations. They have activity every day to keep everyone engaged + free yoga. If they could supply towels, soups and lockers would be awesome

    Liked the vibe of this hostel a lot, not a party hostel but extremely social as everyone makes use of the outdoor area. Meant you could opt in or out of evening plans and get a good nights sleep when needed. The facilities are great and it’s particularly clean. Dorms were just as nice as the private rooms.

    I hope they invest in better blankets though, the ones they use right now are just flat sheets.

    The staff was amazing, especially Liezel, I haven't even arrived at the hostel yet and she has been very hospitable and accommodating and helped me booked my land travel from the airport to Port Barton on such short notice. I can't remember all of their names unfortunately, but I do remember that the hostel's local staff are all friendly and helpful. It's very rare to book a place that looks the same in the pictures as it is in real life and My Green Hostel was exactly what the pictures showed. My room was actually bigger than I what I expected and I love how they tried to maintain the cleanliness in the hostel (slippers off!). I also appreciate that they assist their guests in booking transportations or boat trips at no additional cost. Like if you want to go on day trips, you can just ask them to call a trike for you and you just pay the drivers directly what their actual rates are. They typically host different events for their guests too but it depends on the occupancy level/season. Location-wise, I think they're about a 10-minute walk to the town proper where most of the accommodations and restaurants are, but there are also some great restaurants in their vicinity. They're also just 5 minutes away from a pharmacy where you can also get snacks or withdraw cash at a nearby ATM. After I checked out, they found out that I left my AirPods in my room and called me. I was going to go back to the hostel to get it but they told me that Liezel will just bring it to me at the van terminal, which I really appreciated.

    It wasn’t their fault but the electricity kept going out. It was out pretty much the three days I was there which is the island’s problem. However, I think it could have been a nice touch if they offered either a late check out time or a complimentary drink. Even free bottled water to try and make the customers more comfortable because it was so hot and humid. And soap in the shower is always a good touch.

    The staff were nice, had a nice common area and the location is decent. A couple of mins walk from the beach.
