I loved the whole place. Very relaxing with positive vibes. My room was awesome, even though it was upstairs it wasn’t hard to get your luggage up there. It had blankets on the bed, which I couldn’t tell from the photos. The bed was so comfortable, we both had one of our best sleeps. Our room was the deluxe queen bed with its own bathroom. The main kitchen was clean and well equipped. A good number of stoves, airfryer, toaster, microwave. They have plates and cutlery. Good, relaxing alternative music playing on the speaker system, lots of fridges to store your food in bags and pens and stickers provided for labelling your bags. There was no oven but you didn’t really need one. Down the corridor of our room was a little kitchenette with a jug, small fridge and sink. Coffee and tea sachets available and a couple of mugs and glasses. A great balcony overlooking the pool. I also liked waking up to the birds chirping. The staff were so friendly and so were the guests. Thanks to Saab for being a great host. It was easier to walk to the beach at the Mooloolaba Surf Club - only 6 minutes, and the same to Sea Life. A great location. We are definitely going back!

The hostel is brand new and it was super clean. Staff is very friendly. Easy parking either on he hostel or street. Close to shops and the beach. They even provide blanket and towel. It is ok if you are not looking to much into socialize and just to chill by yourself and rest which was what I wanted after a long month of travel

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

Great location, just a short walk to the beach and lots of cafes/restaurants with takeaway places across the road. The room was great, lots of privacy with curtains all round your bed and met some lovely people as well. I only stayed one night but genuinely one of the best hostels I've stayed in recently.

Have stayed here a few times since 2010, as a solo person who can't afford an expensive hotel rate it's great to be able to visit the area on a budget. Like the renovations. It's under better management than it had a few yrs ago. In a convenient location. I hope they keep good managers onboard as this is a good hostel when it's been taken care of properly but when there have been bad Managers in the past they had ruined the place. I'd rather stay in MBA than have to go all the way to Noosa.

They have recently renovated the hostel which it badly needed as the previous owners just didn't care. Need to bring back the basic backpacker breakfast for the rates being charged. The Staff on Reception were very welcoming. The new pool area looks great.
