Why Not Backpackers

We are the biggest hostel in Sri Lanka. It's fun and we have beer. If that's not enough come and check out the place for a look. We are the top ranked hostel in mirissa.

Terrible, we keep them in slave conditions and force them to work noon till night. If you don't like to socialise and enjoy a party it will feel like this haha

Most fun I’ve had in Sri Lanka! Almost never felt like working… I met so many people as the hostel is really really social. I planned to work for 2 weeks but stayed for 2 month😂BUT you definitely have to be prepared for some crazy party’s& people. Still everyone was really kind and you can always ask for help.
Thank you so much for all the memories! I never had a boring day.
Will also probably be back someday… because WHY NOT
