Arambol, Goa – NamahStay, a community-led backpacker hostel in North Goa, is celebrating the 10th year of a journey that began in 2017. Over the years, NamahStay has grown from a simple place for travellers to stay into a vibrant commune where backpackers, artists, musicians, digital nomads and long-term travellers come together to experience a more authentic side of Goa.
Located in Arambol, one of North Goa’s most recognised traveller destinations, NamahStay offers more than accommodation. The hostel has been shaped around the belief that meaningful travel is created through people, shared experiences and spontaneous connections.
Guests visiting NamahStay can experience community gatherings, live music, open-mic evenings, creative sessions, coworking, local exploration and the relaxed rhythm for which Arambol is known. This combination of hospitality, culture and social connection has helped NamahStay build its identity as one of the best backpacker hostels in Goa for travellers seeking more than a conventional holiday.
“NamahStay was created as a place where strangers could arrive, feel comfortable and quickly become part of a community,” said a representative of NamahStay. “As we celebrate our 10th year, we are grateful to every traveller, volunteer, artist, team member and local friend who has contributed to this journey.”
Since its origins in 2017, NamahStay has welcomed guests from India and around the world. Many visitors arrive looking for an affordable hostel in Arambol but leave with friendships, collaborations and memories that continue long after their Goa trip ends.
The property’s location also makes it convenient for travellers who want to explore Arambol Beach, local markets, cafés, wellness spaces, live performances and the broader culture of North Goa. At the same time, NamahStay provides an environment where guests can slow down, work remotely, meet other travellers and become part of an active social community.
To mark its 10th year, NamahStay is inviting past guests, new travellers, backpackers and Goa lovers to return and experience the community that has developed over the last decade.
The anniversary represents both a celebration of the journey so far and the beginning of a new chapter. NamahStay plans to continue developing community events, creative experiences and traveller-focused stays while preserving the welcoming and inclusive character that has defined the hostel since 2017.
Travellers searching for a backpacker hostel in Goa, a social stay in North Goa or a community hostel near Arambol Beach can discover accommodation, events and upcoming experiences through the official NamahStay platforms.
Come experience Goa with NamahStay—where the journey begins with a stay and continues through the people you meet.
