    Definitely an unforgettable stay. The staff, the owner, everyone was very welcoming and hospitable. I stayed there for 6days. And it felt like a family. The place has a great vibe. Rooms are super comfortable, very well maintained, the washrooms were super clean. The bartender is very friendly and very sweet. The cafe is very nice with good food at low price. They even provide games like jenga in the cafe to keep you entertained. Thereโ€™s also good music playing in the cafe with projector screen playing videos so you can thoroughly enjoy. Also thereโ€™s an adorable cat whoโ€™s very friendly and likes pets. Do pet his head if you ever visit this place. All in all amazing experience. What else can you ask for?

    Soothing place to be in Goa. One of the best hostels you would find. Clean rooms and good breakfast. Owner is a proper Gujarati treats customers like one of their own. Offered fire shot at night, organised a small party for all hostellers. Superb place to stay. Memorable place!

    Paid for an AC room, they didn't give me one when I checked in because the place was overbooked. The room was damp and hot, the road nearby was flooded during the rains. The cafe was not functional.

    If there was a negative rating then I would have given that first of all. Please do not book this hostel!!!!! We've been charged extra for 3 people just for using another room's washroom once, that too we've informed them since the washroom wasn't cleaned. Moreover, one of us suffered from food poisioning after having breakfast there. Awful experience, very rude owner. Also, no room service was provided daily as mentioned.

  • 1/5 Pallavi R. 1 year ago on Google
    The worst stay one can ever have...rooms were too small and not clean... drinking water was not present for complete 4 days, bedsheets were stinking and dirty..rooms were not worth the price.. location of the hostel is very interior and isolated so think before you book..rooms were very shady and not easily accessible

  • 5/5 Ajay J. 1 year ago on Google
    It read hostel but felt like home. It's in the heart of Anjuna and just a kilometre away from the beach. A perfect location to reach to all the happening places of Goa. Cooperative staff, low tariff and a just right place to be at peace. Highly recommended!

  • 2/5 Arvindh S. 1 year ago on Google
    Location is very inside from the main road. The images that they have posted has only from the entrance. Only good thing about the hostel is the pets that they are having other than that all are below average. Wifi inside the room has poor connection. Smoking and outside food are not allowed as per their rules but few of our neighbours were smoking and the owner did not stop them from smoking even though the smell came till the ground floor.

  • 5/5 Musa I. 1 year ago on Google
    Seriously I havenโ€™t tried a better hostel in Anjuna! The stuff and the owner are super fun and friendly, the food is amazing here, super generous, genuine and definitely a cheerful place! Love it

  • 5/5 Ram K. 1 year ago on Google
    Place has all the vibes. The staff is helpful. Only issue I had was with Wi-Fi and network, I hope they fix that. Other than that I had amazing time. ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜Š

  • 5/5 Harish G. 1 year ago on Google
    Stayed there for two nights. Asked the host whether he knew any place where europa league would be screened, he said why not screen it here. He let us use the projector in the common area, we caught the arsenal and the united match and the match took till 2. The bar and restaurant was open, that Was an added bonus. Had a great time!

  • 5/5 Yesu M. 1 year ago on Google
    Very hospitable. Manager and staff were very friendly. They were always ready to help. One of the best places to stay if u r on a tight budget. Laundromat is right opposite and beach is very near.

  • 5/5 su d. 1 year ago on Google
    This is the right place if you are near Vagator beach and One of the finest hostels in GOA. But there are no good food options near by except German Bakery which is bit costly. Hostel had kitchen but lunch or dinner wasnโ€™t served when I was there in Dec 2022 due to unavailability of the workforce. There is a good space for partying. Music system was lit, right place to work too, snacks were available.

  • 4/5 Avani G. 1 year ago on Google
    Very good place to stay with friends having low budget. Atmosphere is also very nice. But it is located very inside so taxi may charge more and to get out of that area is also difficult you may get lost.

  • 4/5 Joyce A. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice place, quite close to the beach. The food is good, nothing to special, but perfectly fine for the price. The rooms are clean and the WiFi in the rooms is working.

  • 5/5 Nongsha A. 1 year ago on Google
    If you are planning to visit and checking out property near Anjuna then please don't look any further! We stayed in the Goanvibes Hostel for 5 days and I am only looking forward to visit there again whenever I plan for my 3rd Goa trip. Situated right next to German Bakery, Anjuna Beach is just in a walkable distance. To give you all an idea of how close it is to the beach, we ended up going to the Anjuna Beach thrice on our very first day (6 times up&down). We stayed in the A/C dorm and this will come at the most reasonable price you will find anywhere in the area. Don't forget to check out the cafe where all kind of celebration takes place. The staff and crew will make you feel at home offering the best hospitality. Vimal Sir (the owner) is the man you will find whenever in doubt. I am going to miss our talks and for all the help and assistance he provided. Lastly, don't forget to pat Gabbar (cat). He has been staying there for 8 long years. He loves sleeping all the time and doesn't bother about anything. If you are lucky enough then you will also be visited by Laila (dog from the neighborhood). I hope this review will help people and don't get carried away by negative reviews.

    Had an amazing Crazy experience! The service is lit โœจ and hospitality is really really good. Will encourage every backpacker to come here and engage with new people. Very memorable solo trip for me due to this hostel!

    I recently had the pleasure of staying at The Goanvibes hostel and cafe, and it exceeded my expectations in every way. The vibrant and welcoming atmosphere immediately caught my attention, creating a fantastic vibe throughout the entire stay.One standout feature was the thoughtful design of the bunk beds, each equipped with curtains that provided a sense of privacy in the shared dormitories. This small detail made a significant difference in ensuring a comfortable and restful night's sleep. I highly recommend The Goanvibes hostel and cafe for anyone seeking not just a place to stay, but a memorable and lively experience in the heart of Goa, Anjuna

    Vimal was very nice of guiding, sharing all the tourist places that could be visitable.. I was a solo traveller. Looking for more secure places as female traveller, was best of my experience ..a very pleasant one!!! No second thoughts to stay by โ€ฆ Iโ€™m coming by soon again without fail

  • 5/5 Olivier M. 3 months ago on Google New
    Loved my stay at Goanvibes. Nice rooms and cosy sitting outside by the bar to meet other travellers. The staff is very kind and can even go partying with you ;)

  • 3/5 bhardwaj p. 3 months ago on Google New
    Hostel is in very good area ,Staff is cooperative, Vimal Sir who operate the Hostel is very good person, he will help you a lot to find better places in goa, in-house cafe also available, common seating area is also nice , overall experience is good.๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ‘ Two important I could see are : 1) There was solar water heater, so if you not ok with cold water to bath then you need to wait till noon for proper hot waters, this could be replaced by Electric heater. 2) locker is so small, limited stuff can be place inside, it should be big enough.

  • 5/5 Neha J. 3 months ago on Google New

    I had an unforgettable stay at Goanvibes. The hostel is close to the beach, based at a prime location. I absolutely loved the food and went nowhere else. (Did save me a lot of money) The staff is supportive and cooperative, I made some special friends there. They always made sure I was comfortable. Loved their hospitality!

    The location of hostel is not easy to locate. Extremely isolated. Room and washroom was not clean. Too many insects and mosquitoes. Poor lighting and looks dull. Please think before booking.

    Good location close to the beach and market. They have plenty of board games to Play and a good cafe for spending some leisure time. The AC dorms are great and we really enjoyed our stay here. Reserved parking for guests is an added advantage

    Had an amazing time at this hostel. It has all the basic facilities that one needs in the hostel. The host Vimal is amazing. I did spend a wonderful time at this hostel.

  • 2/5 Joseph T. 1 year ago on Google
    The rooms and toilets were clean and well maintained. They've got a pet dog and cat. The service was not up to the mark. Cafe and Bar was not functional when we checked in. Do not expect any other complementary services which will be promised when booking. The location too is a bit far from town. Walkable distance (1KM) to Anjuna Beach and the famous Curlies Restaurant. Better rent out a scooter or car before check in. The owner was quite rude at times. We went during the month of August, so less crowded. We noticed other hostels nearby with better facilities and services and more or less same price per day.

  • 1/5 amal m. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely mismanaged property. They claim to have a cafe but its not functional.The owner of the place is not friendly at all and chides the staff if they try to help the guests. please dont go by the reviews that says otherwise. The place smells of dogs and cats. After asking if we can order food from outside, the staff were hesitant to provide cutlery. even after offering to clean the plates ourselves, the staff were not ready to give plates.

  • 2/5 vikhyath j. 2 years ago on Google
    Good place for solo travel. Staff is good. Since its off season there is no crowd at all. They offer free breakfast for a review.
