The location was great, two blocks aways to the main beach. There are surfboards you can use, which made my stay even better. The kitchen is huge. There is plenty of space for everything.

Great location walking distance into the main parts of Byron bay and the beach. The Hostel was peaceful at night with a friendly atmosphere during the day amongst fellow guests. There is a nice outdoor space with a big lawn and outdoor benches. The showers were clean and the private double bedroom was a good size with storage and fresh clean bedding. There was a good ceiling fan.

All hostels in Byron Bay

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.
