Gowri home stay is best option if you wish to stay in hampi and advantage of this place is you can explore more. But if you want enjoy more then go with any stays available at hippie island. ferry is available between 7.30am to 5.30pm at 50 rs per person to cross the river after that you have to pay double and 200rs after 6.30. I would recommend you to book room at hampi for first 2 day or first day and after exploring hampi go with hippie island. In hippie island you can enjoy the beauty of sanapur lake and witness the awesome sunset at anjanadri hill
