Overview
Indie Hostel is a social stop for backpackers in the middle of Sairee, Koh Tao's busiest beach area. It offers both dormitories and private rooms, so it works for a solo diver on a budget as well as for a couple who want their own door.
The dorms use built-in wooden bunks with privacy curtains, each with a reading light and a locker, and the showers have rain heads with free toiletries. Food and drinks are served every day in the hostel's own open-air café and bar, both named Indie, and guests get discounts on diving courses and snorkelling tours.
