Lock in a great price for Bungalow Bay Koala Village YHA – rated 8.1 by recent guests!

to get started.

It was set in nature and mostly quiet. The location wasn’t bad. There is a bus stop in front.

Leelee14, United States of America

Nice, comfortable bungalows. Good quality showers and toilets. Lots of animals around.

Ania, Switzerland

Great location near beautiful Horseshoe Bay. Considering I hadn’t stayed at a youth hostel in decades, I was pleasantly surprised. Like grown-up camp. Lovely environment - and not to raucous with drunken youth, thank god!

Van, Canada

The location was great, in nature but close to town and the bus. Good walking trails close by. Nice concept as an animal sanctuary. Drink specials we're fun and it was easy to meet people

Chris, United States of America

the betest place in Maggie !!!! i recommend this place

Picard, France

Very cute and cozy little bungalows located in a great location!

Justine, Australia

Everything, the staff were fantastic and the setting is so peaceful, there are wallabies and birds on your doorstep. Also I would highly recommend the wildlife tour it was the best thing we did while on magnetic island.

Cliona, Ireland

The grounds were attractive and the little cottages were cute.

Georgia, United States of America

The cabins are nice, the beds were comfy, the breakfast with koalas was amazing! Excellent food and petting a koala. Holding was extra but so worth it. Hunter was the leader of both events and he was very informative and did a great job. We also did the koala walk which was a little different and also great. This is a youth hostel so it isn’t fancy. Shared kitchen with most everything needed to cook- gas stove, pots, pans, no oven. We got dishes for a returned deposit. We went for an evening walk to a nearby park and there were wallabies everywhere!

Tim, United States of America

Very basic backpacker style. Great location. Good facilities. Has a special feel.
