The Bucket List Hostel - Backpacker Hostel in Vagator - North Goa, India

My first hostel experience and I loved it. Rooms were pretty decent and budget friendly. Very neat washrooms. If you are part lovers, they have all night party as well. In-house bar and restaurant available. Location is a bit remote from happening beaches. If you have your own vehicle, that wont be an issue either.Other than that, i would recommend this for anyone.

This place is insanely good. Me and my two friends had the best time here. Stayed here for 2 nights then we came back a week later for 2 nights as we had such a great time. If vibe and good fun is what you are after then this is the place to stay in Goa. Vaibhav was such a good guy and good host. He knows how to create an atmosphere in a hostel. Can't recommend this place enough if you are in Goa.

This hostel is a vibe! We kept extending our stay and even cancelled our trip to the South just to stay 2 more days at the hostel. I owe my Goa trip to be so memorable because of this Hostel, met people from around the world, made some amazing friends and had such a good time! The host (owner) is a gem, he helped us make itineraries and also served us some amazing cocktails in his bar. If you are travelling solo or even in a group, and want to experience a colour filled stay, go for it! Worth every penny and more!

Surprise We've stayed is this hostel for 4 nights and we were very disappointed. They canceled our last 2 night and they didn't refund us. That's not class. Also it's Very Dirty, different than the photo on the website. It's more a bar than a hostel and don't really respect the people who try to sleep, if you don't go out every night good luck. It's very expensive for what it is, especially if you sleep in those caban, mattress are very thin, scratchy and not isolate at all.. if your are lucky you can also have street dogs in your bed ! a little shame for this price.. thank you for this experience ;)

Location is good. Hostel ambience is great for friends group. We stayed at individual apartments for 4 people opposite to the hostel. Theres a spacious bedroom, kitchen space and two balconies. Gym facilities available. Swimming pool was not functioning. Cleaning/housekeeping was poor as nobody turned up to pick food waste (no way to take it out of our room, even the sanitary waste ) during the course of stay(3nights) which we felt quite uneasy.

The staff/volunteers make this place - especially Vaibhav! He was so welcoming from the start and any arrival fear is quickly extinguished. I stayed in the 6 bed female dorm which was as good as it gets in India, clean, cool and good locker space. The bathroom could have been cleaner but you get what you pay for. I'm very glad we had a proper room as I saw some of the other 'huts' with no air con or private bathroom and I'm not sure I would have lasted in those. Bear in mind this is a party hostel so the music goes on late (1-2am) so it's not a place for early nights. Drinks and food are cheap and good quality. They showed the cricket/rugby on the projector which was great. Location is great and you can get to several beaches and plenty of shops and restaurants easily. Make sure you get lots of cash out as there's only a couple of working ATMs and the majority of places are cash only, including the hostel! All in all, met some great people and had some real fun.

It was my first hostel experience and I absolutely loved it.The vibe of the hostel is something different that makes it special if you are a party lover go for it without any thought. Rooms and services were pretty decent and budget friendly comparatively to others their staff is so benign and helpful especially vaibhav who is very amiable and helpful if you are looking for hostel in North Goa I would highly recommend it to you visit once you won't regret it.

I was gonna write a review but I'm just gonna tell you what I wrote to Ash the owner of bucket list, "as I sit in an airport in Bengaluru I rethink how my life brought me out on this insane journey across India and how you and your project and your team here at the Bucketlist made me feel at home. Made me feel like this was exactly where I needed to be. We didn't know what to expect but this was one of the most beautiful experiences I had here. I've been on the road since July 15th and your home here made us feel like we were back at our own homes for a little but. The hospitality given by you, Rahul and Vybes are unmatched. I cannot even start how nice the whole experience was from the beginning of us walking in the doors to the moment of when we rushed out to the cab. As I write this to you expressing my feelings for Bucketlist I really hope we cross paths one day, I really hope we meet again so I can repay you for the hospitality you provided and for the genuine kindness and love you and Rahul and vybes showed us. I hope your next project is equally as successful. Hope that other hostels across in India can learn a thing or two from you and what you've done. You made our dreams come true. We didn't know Lizzie, sniper, Chelsea and Tony and suddenly your hostel brought us together in the same room. Even though we all booked separate Vybez made it happen. He helped us pull a prank on sniper and Tony. He made sure one night we all got to be in the same room. Bro I'm out of words to express my gratitude for you. But one I'll tell you is this. SEE YOU IN FIFA / burning man. Send vybes and Rahul my love and tell them I miss them already. Till next time bro <3" If you've read this. BOOK IT. Undoubtedly one of the greatest hostel experiences I've had in my life. Thank you Ash, Vybez and Rahul for making the last leg of my India trip beautiful. I'll see you guys in Canada <3
