I stayed here for one night in a dormitory room with 4 beds, but because there were no other guests, I had all the space to myself. Great for privacy, bad for socializing. The room itself was well-equipped, with air conditioning, ceiling fan, fridge, iPod dock (I've never seen this in other YHA's), and ensuite bathroom. There's a sign saying... More

Stayed for 5 nights and nothing negative to say. Friendly and helpful staff made my stay really great, nothing was too much trouble and they had loads of good local knowledge. The room was large, clean and equipped with fridge, large tv and docking station for my iPhone. The free Internet worked perfectly. Great location with only 10 mins to... More

We stayed here for 2 nights over new years 2012. It is definitely budget accommodation. The staff are great, really friendly lady at the front desk. The rooms are very old and worn. The beds are very uncomfortable as are the pillows. The little sitting area out the back of our room wasn't undercover, so you couldn't sit out there... More

We're 30 something backpackers who are hostelling but sometimes paying a few dollars extra for privacy, and this place was great. The new managers are making a huge effort with it. Room has fridge in it for those things you don't want communal. There's free wifi provided (a rarity in YHA), a TV room, bar/bistro and pool. We self catered... More

I loved the hostel, nice environment, great free internet 1gb (and the plus, free tablet!), amazing location and cool shady pool! Il go back asap. Highly recommended! Cheap as. Also friendly staff and guests.

I had an excellent time staying here. Four bed dorm was very quiet, clean,comfortable,and secure. The bistro had great food and made up something on request.The staff were very friendly and helpful...beautifully made coffees. It is a couple of min from the beach and about 15min walk from Port Douglas centre and the marina and crocodiles!. They can give info... More

It was good. Very relaxed atmosphere and nice communal areas. The staff were very helpful in organising reef trips etc. The cook was an interesting character. Short walk to everything - beaches, restaurants etc. You can rent a pontoon boat just down the road and go croc spotting in the creek. I've never seen the sky so full of bats.... More
