it was close to the beach — Customer review (2011-05-13) Hostelbookers

Almost too many things to mention. We were only supposed to be here for 3 nights and ended up staying for 8. They were so helpful and the breakfast was just amazing. Everytime you needed something they would take care of it. 29th of April is queensnight (a national holiday in the Netherlands) and we were kinda sad to miss it and we mentioned this to the staff, and the immediately organized a huge party (even though we only mentioned it a day before). They bought loads of orange stuff, and threw an amazing party together. Really didnt want to leave, and definitely will be back!!!!!! — Eva van der Pluijm (2011-05-01) Hostelbookers

Amazing staff, cool location overlooking the lake. All round good place — James Wall (2010-09-14) Hostelbookers

great hostel! originally booked 2 nights and ended up staying for over a week. located in a really great place close to the beach. the view overlooking the lake is amazing. such a tranquil and peaceful setting but always a party to be had at night! free caprinhas at 7.30. really friendly staff and house pet Zeca who are always up for a laugh and make you feel at home. activities and trips organised every day, all you can eat dinners every night, never made breakfast but heard it was worth getting up for! weather was awful which limited what we could do activity wise but the staff made sure to entertain us all and had a fantastic time! — Martha Siney (2010-08-06) Hostelbookers

Backpackers Sunset was amazing! We would defenitely recommend this hostel when coming to Florianopolis! Staff is really friendly and helpful, breakfast is the best one so far and the view is stunning. They organize lots of trips and the atmosphere is relaxed and fun. The staff member that we would defenitely miss is Zeca the dog! — Customer review (2010-06-20) Hostelbookers

This is the best hostel I've stayed in so far ib Brazil, the location is beautiful, the staff go out of their way to help you and also keeo the guests amused. The evening meals on offer were realy good quality and were all you can eat. The room we stayed was so clean and had a spa bath and was ensuite to the girls dorm.
