Backpackers Holiday Village Reviews

Good lay out and the apartments didn't make you think you were in a dorm room. It's nice to have your own kitchen area, lounge, bathroom and balcony between just a few people. The staff were helpful and you can get access to pretty much everything you need - just make sure you have plenty of cash available when you check in as EVERYTHING needs a deposit!

The Staff was very unfriendly and unmotivated. The Room was ok, but one of the toilets was broken, so we have to share one toilet with 20 persons. There were Cockcroaches in the rooms as well. The Kitchen was very small and dirty, it was impossible to cook there without get pushed by someone.

No TV-Room to watch the tennis games, at night the bathrooms looked terrible, everybody can enter the hostel and the internet is way too expensive!!!

Try to make WiFi available for guests

Stayed for a few nights over the Australia Day week end A very pleasant experience the courtyard and the general set up is impressive,functional, clean with a good vibe which caters for a mix of travellers of all ages and nationalities with ease

I love Byron Bay and it's mostly because I had some much fun in your hostel! You guys are the funniest staff I've met. Thank you so much! -Eerika

Would come back every time :) great hostel, nice people :)

If you're 18 or up for a non stop party then this is the place for you! The dorm accommodation is shared 'apartments' so 2 bedrooms with 4 beds in each share a lounge and kitchen plus private bathroom. Maybe I just had a bad stay/bad guests in my accommodation but the front door was always left open, the place was cleaned often but not very well, you had to pay for everything as an extra and there was no wifi at all. Not my sort of place but depending on what you are looking for you may disagree

Really nice hostel, people were really social and there was party every night until 11 pm. Kitchen and bathrooms were clean, rooms and beds were more comfortable than in most hostels I have visited in Australia. I'd recommend!

Great hostel! Excellent atmosphere as everyone got to know others! It was great to stay in the room for 4 and have your own living room, kitchen and bathroom.

Thank-you for the funny time on your village .. i love it!!! With best wishes Doreen and Melanie

Interesting place. Has a deposit for basically everything (including plates and cutlery!), but lots of things can be rented for free, which was amazing (surf boards, boogie boards, bikes, etc.). The renting of plates was a bit weird because you had to remember to take them back to your room with you or return them to reception, but it was also good because there wasn't a single dirty dish left in the kitchen! Apartment style rooms are also cool cause you have your own kitchen and chill out area.

Rooms are well maintained . Pool was just right temp.

Everything was great, there was a Canadian guy who worked at the front desk who was a douche, but other than that, a great experience
