This place is definitely one of the most awesome hostels I’ve ever stayed in. The hosts are just really cool and relaxed guys who include everyone and provide a magic experience on a quiet part of the main beach of Gokarna. Every night they organised some kind of games (from poker, to mafia over or music sessions that let you feel like home. Everybody is welcomed to join, nobody is forced to. If you just want to relax l, you’re also able to do so. The dorms are super tidy and cleaned every day. The common area is inviting and let you either hang out the whole day or just a bit in the night either how you prefer. The beach is directly in front of the door step and the sea amazing to bath in. The food is really pleasant for a fair price and you want to try ally of it. I recommend their Shakshuka and Gobi Manchurian. If you have the chance to stay at this special gem at the coast of Gokarna, don’t miss it. You will definitely not regret it. Thank you so much guys for this unique experience. If I ever come back to South India, I’ll make sure to visit you again. Here I felt like home far away from home.

I loved Trippr. The Managers and Volunteers, Praveen Mathew and Praveen Babu, and now a volunteer, Darshan, they are the best. Best friends for a backpacker. The Hostel is right in front of the beach, you can stay in Tent, open it and see the beach, take a dip, take a shower and chill. Loved it

Amazing hostel & a clean property. The hosts take extra effort everyday to make your stay comfortable & your time in GoKarna worth it. They are involved with every guest & provide you with a community experience. Hosts have great suggestions for places to visit & food options to try. Accessibility to the beach & the view from the property are the cherry on top. I'd 100% recommend Revibe to every backpacker visiting GoKarna.

I was supposed to stay for couple of days and I ended up extending my booking for 2 weeks. Definitely one of the best hostels I had in India so far. Nice common spaces, good food, clean dorms and very beautiful people!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Hostel Exp, and I wanted to share my positive experience. The hostel's vibrant atmosphere and friendly staff made my stay memorable. The dormitory was clean and well-maintained, and the beds were comfortable. The common areas provided a great space to socialize and meet fellow travelers.

I highly recommend this place for solo or group travelers, especially women. It's safe, near a clean beach, and offers enjoyable activities in the evenings. The rooms are spacious, well-ventilated, and maintained with clean bathrooms. The hosts, Guru, Karadi, and Chandan, are excellent and go out of their way to cater to guests' needs. A special shout-out to Bhushan for his impressive fire act. Having stayed in numerous hostels across India, this is one of the places where I truly had a great time.

Great location in front of the beach with good value for money. Sammy is flexible (I could sleep in my hammock for a cheaper price), smiling, hospitable, helpful, empathic, very nice and with beautiful vibes. Some other members of the staff are nice too, like Shree and also Laxmi who helped me to wear my saree. Very safe for the luggage. You can also use a safe box if you bring your padlock.l Nice for meeting young indian people. The toilets and the place are cleaned all day long.
