Back Packers and Traveler's Hostel in Seville
It's been a long time since I stayed in a Hostel and boy have they gotten better! Annie had her choice of at least 3 in downtown Seville. This one was just down the street from SETAS or Wild Mushrooms. She paid $20 Euro/night and got a bunk in a room for 8 women. The room included a lockable storage spot under bed, private shower w/2 additional sinks outside, a cafe, bar, roof top pool and deck. Also use of kitchen facilities and breakfast for an extra 8 euro. I went with her to check in and see the place first hand. Not just 20 year olds stay in hostels anymore - all ages and ethnicities co-exist! Adios Annie ! Such a nice catchup and lovely 2 days in Seville.
I got to do 14 dives and 5 snorkel trips over our two weeks at Eco Cove Resort. I feel much more confident and comfortable diving, practice does truly help! Eco has these t-shirts that list all their Resort excursions - we made a nice dent in all of them and it's hard to pick a favorite!
Friday nights at Eco Cove Resort are sunset excursion time. All the guest are taken over to tiny Yeben Rock Island. This time the tde ws coming in quickly and alot of the island was already covered by water but that didn't dampen our party! We had a cooler of beer this time too! We also have become feriendly with the 2 families that were there sharing with us.
Eco Cove Resort in Raja Ampat - Oh what a wonderful place! I have truly loved my time here! Sharing it all with wonderful friends, made it even better. Here's some highlights above and below the water.
