Description
This lively hostel has full range of dorms and rooms for backpackers. The dorm rooms are dirt-cheap year round and have two sets of bunk-beds and decent shared facilities. The funkily-painted private rooms are a great deal with en-suite bathrooms, TVs, and mini-bars. The common area downstairs is very welcoming with cushy sofas, a bar and restaurant, an encyclopaedic DVD collection, and a big TV to go along with it. The chatty Kiwi who runs the place can usually be found hanging out here with his guests. The staff can book all sorts of tours for you and run their own overnight island camping trips. Recommended for out-going backpackers.

Kangaroo Guesthouse
269/6-9 Karon Plaza, Karon Beach
This is another basic place among the cluster of budget digs in Karon Plaza. There's 28 air-con rooms to choose from, some with pieces of truly ugly furniture, but with satellite TV, mini-fridges, and hot-showers at this price you can't complain. Staff are chummy and downstairs is the hopping... more
