The Coolangatta Sands Hostel is brilliantly located in the heart of Coolangatta, the very first stop on the Gold Coast once you cross the border into Queensland from New South Wales.. Just up from Byron bay.

Coolangatta is home to Mick Fanning and Stephanie Gilmore the worlds surfing champions and their favourite surfing breaks like Snapper Rocks and D-Bah which can be found directly across the road.

We are the closest hostel on the Gold Coast to the beach. Our hostel boasts modern new facilities, The Lounge, chill-out bar, Kirrabelle Brasserie and sports bar. It is a perfect hostel for anyone keen to chill out, surf, take on the beautiful beaches of the Gold Coast, or just enjoy the great view of Kirra Point whilst relaxing on the day beds upstairs on the hostels terraced balcony.
