This is the best hostel I’ve stayed in so far! Such a good atmosphere and everyone is so friendly, feels more like a holiday resort rather than a hostel. There are so many activities put on daily and the pool is very social. Although it is a little bit away from the main town there is a very regular and free shuttle bus that can take you to and from. Added an extra night here because I enjoyed it so much and Byron Bay itself is beautiful ☺️

Friendly helpful staff. Nice, spacious rooms (with lockers). Lovely pool and common areas and a big kitchen. Free surfboard hire. Nice location - just out of town but great access to the beach and the free shuttle into town is great if you time it right. Good atmosphere with friendly people! I’d definitely stay here again - pricey but worth it.

The location is a bit far from the center but they have free shuttle and parking so it’s ok. The hostel is amazing.
