    Very nice place, well located. The atmosphere is amazing, with the pool, the garden and the many relaxation areas that you do not feel in a city but on an island! Highly recommended, especially if you want to avoid crowded places with backpackers.

    While it’s definitely not a big problem, this hostel is a bit further away from the boulevard than other hotels in Cairns.

    It was really nice to not be in a bunk bed for a change. The hostel has a lot of common areas to socialise and there’s plenty of showers, toilets and kitchens. It was nice to get some good sleep, since this is not a part hostel. The staff were very helpful in accommodating your stay by booking activities for example.

    Such a nice vibe, relaxing and really nicely decorated. Lots of different areas to chill out. Loved using the outdoor shower. One of the nicer hostels I’ve stayed in Aus :) and the lady running it is super helpful and friendly. She did her best to help keep from moving rooms when I needed to extended multiple times. I’m very grateful

    I throughly enjoyed my stay, the following is simply some helpful feedback, I would definitely stay again!Based on the photos I thought there would be more seated lounge areas. Lamps next to the beds would be nice. Saturday night was really busy, and Sunday morning it took a while to find an available bathroom. Would be great if Bathrooms had more surface area to place your toiletries. Kitchens are small.

    Loved the tropical oasis vibe. Everyone was really friendly, staff and guests. Provided a helpful orientation to Cairns. Staff even popped a dollar into our aircon unit one night which was kind. Bat's and bird flying overhead, and the outdoor areas were lovely to spend time despite the ever present rain. They also helped me book my day tour snorkeling on the GBR, as well as the sky rail, which was helpful.

    It’s the first hostal in my life that you need to pay for the air conditioner, O can’t believe that, you pay a lot for one night and should be included. You can’t stay in the kitchen more than 2 minutes, there are not AC or a fan, is impossible to be there.

    Location, and always was clean

    Everything! It's the cutest and cleaned hostel that I have ever been to in my life! I stayed in a private room, it was comfy, with AC, tidy and clean with everything you need. Then you have shared toilets, kitchens and common spaces. I loved the part of taking a shower outside in a wood cabinet full of plants and the shower temperature and pressure just felt so good! It's next to the Cairns station and Greyhound bus and the staff is super helpful!! Totally recommend!

    The location is a bit further away from the busier places. Although this makes it more quiet, it can be scary to walk back to the hostel especially after dark because of the people that hang around the train station. I took an Uber when going out after dark.

    Really good hostel. The staff was so nice and the rooms were good. No bunkbeds was a pleasant surprise. The hostel has a very nice vibe; it’s small, cute, relaxed, just overall great. Close to the greyhound and the train station.
