About

Voted ‘Sydney's Most Popular Hostel’ & 'Best Social Hostel in Oceania' at the 2025 Hostelworld HOSCAR Awards, a stay with Wake Up! Bondi Beach lets you live that iconic Aussie lifestyle.

With oceanfront views of Australia’s most iconic beach, Wake Up Bondi’s location is like no other. But look beyond the epic views, and you’ll discover there’s even more to love. Like our open-air rooftop, where you can rejuvenate in the ice bath, sauna and complimentary yoga classes. Or our free surfboards and beach fitness classes. How about the coolest beach bars, a sun-drenched walk away? Get ready to soak up the unrivalled energy of Bondi Beach.

The bits you love most:

Epic ice bath and seriously spacious sauna
Complimentary yoga classes and surfboard hire
Exclusive rooftop with panoramic views (pinch me, is this real?!)
Social nights, including Wine & Cheese, BBQ, Trivia, Bingo Night
Brand new bunks with privacy curtains
Ocean-view rooms
That unexplainable Bondi feeling.

The parts we obsess over:
Keeping your shared dorms (3, 4, 6, 8 beds) & private rooms kept to the highest standard (the best bunks, the best housekeeping team)
Finessing over the details
Finding the right team members, so everyone from Activities Crew to Reception bring the Bondi energy

Cool hostel! Great location right on the beach. Plenty of activities to get involved in. A lot of long term occupants who did come across as cliquey at times. However, lots of short term visitors as well, social environments in kitchen and rooftop so was able to meet people really easily. No elevator with 4 stories. There is currently construction going on around building though disruptions were minimal. Sauna and cold plunge great additions. Well stocked kitchen. Overall would recommend :))
