About
Experience the real Australia at Gladstone backpackers! Located off the beaten path midway between Rainbow Beach and Airlie Beach, Gladstone offers the unique blend of country, coast, entertainment, and shopping. We are the perfect place to take a travel break or go adventuring like a true local to one of the many hidden beaches off the Southern Great Barrier Reef. Relax by the pool or play a game of darts or Jenga. Check out our activities board packed with weekly in-house events such as pool parties, bar games, movie nights, beach days and maybe more! This is where you can become part of the Gladstone family! There is never a dull moment here thanks to the hostels’ Adventure Shuttle service that offers mountain climbing, kayaking, and fishing tours all at backpacker friendly prices.
Enjoy our homely facilities such as a fully stocked kitchen and rooms with individual fans. The common area features a pool table, plasma screen TV you can watch while hanging out with our friendly Dog, Charlie (he runs the show), our assistant dog Arlo, the pet turtle Raph or Godzilla - the Bearded Dragon. For those of you who are brave, you can get a cuddle from our pet snake Bradley!
Charlies Bar is the main meeting place, and where all the action happens. From coffees at breakfast, local craft beer on taps to Espresso Martinis as the sun sets. Meet your fellow guests and book your next adventure!
We offer FREE: Wi-Fi, breakfast, linen and towels, and endless love from our onsite dog Charlie and Arlo.
