The bungalow is beautiful, with a nice view, plants around, and it feels really cosy. It was clean; there was fast wifi and a hot shower. Breakfasts were great!
There is no storage space in the cabin, the light is uncomfortable, and the front glass is kinda see-through. There were a few power cuts during our stay, but that is not the hostel's fault; the whole village was out.

Absolutely loved my stay at Bodhi Santa Catalina. From the moment I arrived, Marie and Noel made me feel incredibly welcome. They are warm, genuine, simple and incredibly human — I truly felt like I was staying with friends rather than at a hotel. The breakfast deserves a special mention: Marie’s pancakes are absolutely insane! Definitely one of the highlights of the stay. I also loved spending evenings on the terrace and in the hammock. One of my favorite moments was actually when there was no electricity. Sitting in a hammock, enjoying the quiet atmosphere of Santa Catalina, was such a simple but beautiful experience. The whole place has a very relaxed, authentic and welcoming atmosphere. I had an excellent time and genuinely felt at home.
Honestly, nothing worth mentioning. I enjoyed my stay from beginning to end.

Bed was like sleeping on the floor, no exaggeration. Terrible smell in room, made worse when ac went out in the middle of the night (electric stayed on but not ac?)
