I stayed for 4 nights and wish I could have stayed longer! I loved the cleanliness of the place, the layout, the spacious kitchens (there were 2) and the hostel was relatively unoccupied when I stayed so there was plenty of room to spread out. Quiet, peaceful, and fun!

We absolutely loved our stay here, the location was peaceful, the property was beautiful, the bed comfortable, the kitchen well stocked. Although it was a shared bathroom it was kept incredibly clean. The host was a delight and made sure we had everything we needed for our stay. Highly recommend!

All hostels in Marahau

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's 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 little more.

    One of the best hostels i have stayed in so far. First of the staff is really helpfull and kind, felt right at home. The hostel is really nice, it has a big garden with hammocks, pool tables, a cinema, an inside living room and a fireplace where u can roast marshmallows every night. The location is good aswell its on walking distance from the beach and the park and right next to the kayak hire and water taxi. Dorms and beds were great aswell!

    Great facilities, friendly and informed personell and within walking distance of Abel Tasman national park. They helped me organize activites and informed me where to go. They came and picked me up and dropped me back of i Kaiteriteri. The best hostel I stayed in during my NZ trip!

    So far the best hostel I stayed in NZ! The owner as well as the staff is super friendly and extremely helpful - they always assure all the guests are doing well. We spontaneously decided to do a camping trip in the Abel Tasman and they provided us a tent and sleeping bags. In case of bad weather they have lots of board games as well as a cinema and pool tables, nice indoor and outdoor common area.

    It's probably the best hostel I have ever been in. The staff were amazing, and the whole place was so cosy. Thanks, guys, for the fantastic experience and the good chats.

    Great location very close to Abel Tasman NP. The style of the dorm rooms made out of shiping containers is unique. During the summer a great place to stay. There are even an in-house cinema and pool tables. The upper bunk beds are a bit high, but all of them have two outlets and two USB ports.
