195 Torquay Terrace, Scarness, 4655 Hervey Bay, Australia – Great location - show map
Staff are kind and very considerate. They will not tolerate bad behavior Or drug abuse. If you are into clean honest good times then this is the spot. If not then go elsewhere.

Great value for money and awesome staff. Adequate facilities too.

Hi fellow travellers, well what can I say? If your travelling Aus and you are heading to Hervey Bay looking for quiet, friendly atmosphere that's clean and safe then look no further! This place is all that and more, talk about a budget holiday! Or perhaps you a moving and seeking fantastic accommodation while you survey the land without breaking the bank, I've only been here 1 week and as far as backpackers go this place stands out from so many others 🤠🙂
Staff was awesome. Kitchen and common areas were well used and kept clean. Most of the guests were longer-term residents who were friendly and generous. It felt like an easy-going community of kind people. Easy access to Fraser Island and whale watching tours.

We really enjoyed our stay at Hervey Bay Flashpackers. Our room was very clean and comfortable and the common spaces were continuously cleaned and well maintained. There is a fully functional kitchen which we really appreciated. Plenty of space in the walk-in fridge to store our cold items and plenty of room to cook. The staff were all lovely and the location is just a few minutes walk to the beach and many restaurants.

Incredible hostel with a very reasonable price! Just to name a few: they have an oven, a rainshower, a free pooltable, a cinema and very friendly staff! Highly recommended!

Friendly staff Fully equipped kitchen Everything really clean

There is a really big parking, so you can park easily. There is a really huge refrigerator.

The people working there are all very friendly and I felt treated like an actual guest. After staying in many hostels across the country I had come to the conclusion that in Australia hostels don’t care about you as a guest, you’re someone who stays and shouldn’t have expectations. (Thanks to corona some places at least got a bit cleaner.) So it was a very nice surprise to find these friendly people who made sure you have a comfortable stay and can actually enjoy the facilities. The kitchen contained soo many appliances and was always sparkling clean. They even offered free food every day - I was lucky to be there for the wine & cheese night :) The room was comfortable and I even had a TV. Compared to other places this was a place where I met other travelers exploring the country (not just the bars.) All the people I encountered made my stay memorable and I’d highly recommend the place if you are NOT looking for a party hostel.

Pool table and pool. Free bonus treats at dinner. Great staff. Rooms were great, essentially had a very clean amd private large ensuite, prices were very affordable. 2min walk to beach. Huge kitchen, well maintained
