I miss this hostel! thank you so much for the great experience especially for a first timer in a hostel like me You made my first time a flawless experience

One request tho, lockers! I almost lost my wallet and my roommate took it. But she returned it after one of the guests helped me in confronting her (in a super nice way that we all ended up friends) 😁

Kudos and more power to everyone!

Lovely hostel! Babu & Johanna are so friendly, welcoming and happy to help. Location is fantastic, close to restaurants,cafes, shops, dive centres, activities, beach etc

Great staff who helped us with the organisation of our trip! Free water and coffee!! The location is good, swimming pool to relax and clean hostel, I recommend!!

This is a great little hostel to stay in Moalboal. The staff are super friendly and helped us a lot during our stay. They have very cheap beers and the pool is delightful during those hot days!

We had the greatest time @ Babu Backpacker‘s Inn :) We extended one night after the other as we were chatting with Babu, Johanna (the owners) and little Maddox (their cute baby) all the time. They were incredibly friendly & welcoming. At this place you will have everything you need!! :) great hosts which feels like family, relaxing atmosphere with a pool, nice and cozy dorms. Also all shops, restaurants & beach is very close. If you don’t stay there it’s your own fault 😃
Thank you so much for everything! Hope to see you again very soon!!

After for travelling for months, Babu's has been one of the best hostels ever. The beds are super comfy, the little pool is such a bonus for cooling off and for the price is the best bargain you'll find. The main star of the show is the hospitality though, Babu and Johanna are the loveliest, most welcoming hosts you could ask for, nothing is too much trouble and will always help. Highly recommend to anyone.

This is a must stay for any backpacker. Babu and Johanna (little baby Maddox) and all the other staff are the most fantastic hosts. Beds are incredibly comfy, close to everything you need, discounts on trips and even cheap collection from the airport if needed. These guys go above and beyond for all their guests. We were supposed to be here 2 days, we stayed for 10. Its was hard to leave. As a group of 4 traveling for 5 months so far we have never felt more at home. Amazing WiFi, very clean, perfect location and not a bug insight which was great for our group
. This is the easiest recommendation I can give. 👍10/10 from me.

I wish I could give more stars.
Babu’s backpacker inn has to be the best place I have stayed in 5 months of travelling!
Firstly, the beds are very spacious and really comfy!
The bathrooms are always clean.
The price you pay for what you get is the best you will find in the area without a doubt!
They have free filtered water and a fridge where they have beers for a very good price!

Babu and Joanna are the 2 lovely hosts who run the place and they are the most wonderful humans you will ever meet….they constantly go out of their way to make sure you feel comfortable 24/7.

If you are travelling to moalboal you would be stupid if this wasn’t the place you stay! We originally booked for 2 nights but ended up staying for 8 and really didn’t want to leave!
We will 100% be back!

Thank you so much babu, Joanna and the team for having us!!!

Extremely friendly staff! We had a great stay here. Thank you guys!

Absolutely fantastic hostel. The owners and staff are extremely friendly and accommodating. It was like staying with family.

It's one of the best hostel I've ever been. Good share areas where you can relax, play your music in their speakers and the staff is so nice, kind and really good people. I really enjoyed my time there, I'll come back for sure there. If you are a backpacker I recommend you to stay there, they got all the info of tours, scooter renting and everything you need.

Really helpful staff, really interesting price for a room of 4 people. Would recommend !

Amazing! Babu treats you like you're family, never experienced this kind of hospitality before! The rooms are great and comfortable and the price is the one of the best in town. Perfect place to meet people, very laid-back, full of love and good vibes! Had the best time here!

Super simple place. Exactly what you usually want to have while backpacking. Babu is very lovely and friendly. The hostel is close to shop, 10 min walk to the restaurants area and beach with sardines as well. Have to leave this place, can't drink anymore with the neighbors 😁

Cozy and big bunk-rooms.10 min walking to the beach. Cheap: 300p per head. Most important, be part of this family: Babu, Rachell and Ma. How they take care about every small detail is awesome. Everything is easy and made with love here. We stayed for 4 nights with our 2y.a son and we will come back again very soon. You are our friends, THANK YOU.

Best hostel ever! The staff was amazing, the vibes incredible! You have amazing food.just next door, and you can put your own music and the staff is always willing to join you for a good talk! No words, I will go back! Top!!

Babu is an incredible host who will make you a part of her family, with great rooms and an awesome location with lots to eat nearby. Scooter rentals are available and I highly recommend taking one to the Waterfalls rather than a tour.

I was the first official guest after the pandemic and was welcomed with open arms.
Thanks for the nice stay.

Babu you are great. Me and my boyfriend we really enjoyed the time with you and people around us. Thanks for everthing. Really recommend your place. Xx
Best dinner ever!!

Super nice hostel. Really kind owners!!! We will miss them
