Guest Reviews
- YIYOUNG (6/5): - 위치는 좋지만, 청결도에서 아주 떨어짐. 객실에 음료나 과자부스러기 떨어지면 개미떼가 출현함. 화장실겸 욕실은 매일 청소하는 것 같지만 청소한것 같아 보이지 않음. 주방도 역시 개미떼와 알수없는 냄새가 풍겨 요리하고싶은마음이 사라짐. 바로 옆 펍이있어 새벽 2시까진 시끄러움.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Trevligt hostel! - Bra hostel, ligger mitt på gågatan med restauranger och pubar!
- maria (6/5): Good - It was good the rooms were big and the night life was amazing I would reccomend it
- Ina (8/5): Centralt och rent hostel - Stannade på beaches 2 nätter och är allmänt nöjd. Inget hostel för dem som letar efter ett tyst ställe, då stället har öppen bar för allmänheten.
Stora rena rum med eget badrum och nära till allt!
Receptionen hjälpte mer än gärna till att boka taxi till busstationen efter utcheckning!
- Tee (4/5): It was very basic, good enough to sleep! - Not the best -'it was a very basic place and we managed to make it work
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Stay was good considering it was a backpackers. Air con worked but only just so nights were hot. Cleaners came in every day and did a good job. Bar had a really good atmosphere.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - good to go for party all night long but still a cheap hostel would recommend normads hostel in stead
- mitch (4/5): Wouldn't recommend - The rooms are large, the air con isn't working really well for 10 persons room. The bathrooms are dirty, the staff is friendly, the location is nice.
Wouldn't stay there again
- Charlotte (8/5): Very good value for price - Beaches is, as far as I can judge the best option of all backpacker hostels in Airlie Beach as it is super centric (right next to the lagoon and all major shopping and going out facilities) and possesses of a chilled out hammock area as well as its own bar/restaurant with different activities, live music and party every night.
Staff is super nice and comforting, our room was huge and clean (but not very cozy though) and you even get 50% on the meal deal every night (which means a meal + a drink for only $7.50!).
The kitchen can be a little crowded when it's busy and at night it can get a little loud if youre staying in one of the rooms next to the bar.
Would definitely come here again :)
- Misaki (6/5): Central and noisy - This hostel is located central. That's why it's easy to walk somewhere. They hold own bar, so it is noisy over midnight.
- HN (6/5): 大きなバックパッカーホステル - この日の部屋はとても良い部屋でしたが、翌日の部屋はうるさい部屋でした。
キッチンの火が自動着火だったので、助かった
- HN (6/5): 大きなバックパッカーホステル - 部屋によってはとても静かだけれど 道側は深夜まで パブのノイズがうるさくて辛いかも
お湯はよく出るので嬉しいかも
- Verified traveler (6/5): Peu mieux faire - Très bien situé mais bruyant le soir (bar situé juste à côté).
CHambre spacieuse et propre mais la literie devrait être renouvelée.
Pas de wifi gratuit.
- Mikael (8/5): Clean and friendly hostel. - Cheap and clean private room. Friendly staff.
Would definitely recommend it. Much better than Base.
On thing about the hostels in Airlie is that you are not allowed to have alcohol on your rooms. So strange and it should say so on hotels.com.
- Clint (10/5): Great faces, great places. - Great atmosphere.
- George. (6/5): Good location. - Situated in the middle of Airlie Beach convenient for whatever a backpacker wants.
- Kit (8/5): Good Location Hostel - The hostel is located on the Main Street, lots of shops and restaurants nearby. Its restaurant is really good to try, with discount and the food is good. Inside the room, it's quite clean and large.
- Ebony (8/5): Great location, ridy room, nice staff! - The location was perfect, really close to everything. The room itself was much better than I expected, very clean. The bathroom was a bit dirty, but bearable if you wear thongs while in there. Wouldn't hesitate to stay again!
- Verified traveler (4/5): Good Location but only there to sleep - Does the job but would not spend more than the time you sleep there. They have a good deal for dinner with the restaurant next door so thats good.
- Emmi (8/5): Really nice hostel! - Hostel was really beautiful and nice. No bugs or anything, I really liked it!
- Verified traveler (4/5): Airlie beach - Det var en okej vistelse. Rummet var inte så bra städat, framförallt inte toaletten som luktade kiss (extremt) och hade ett möjligt draperi och mögel i tak/väggar. Köket var bra!
- Courtney (2/5): Gross. - Might be the dirtiest place I've ever slept. I don't think it has ever been cleaned.
Don't expect to sleep either, as this is a major party place.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Beaches - Great experience with lovely staff. Close to beach, lagoon and city center!
- Martin (8/5): Couples can share cheap bed i dorm! - The ten bed dorm was okey until a couple of guys woke up us screaming and fighting at 2 am. 7.50 meal deal well worth it!
- dheeraj (10/5): location n bar!!! - 1. best location on airlie beach.
2. very good bar n bristo.
3. discounted meal for hotel guests.
4. well connected.
5. all basic requirements like laundry.
6. everything u need is within 150mtrs (if not available inside hotel itself).
7. great staff.
limitations:-
1. has dorms or very basic private rooms with tv and bathroom.
- Verified traveler (4/5): Double room - Good location, very noisey room,couldn't sleep at night.
Staff was nice and helpful.
- Florence (4/5): - Kitchen is so dirty, it smelt bad and it's almost never clean and all common area like TV Room are in the same state. Bathroom are disgusting.
- Justin (8/5): Close to the action without being too loud - I checked in just after midnight and the staff were still very welcoming and inviting. Check in was easy,room was very clean and comfortable. Will stay there again
- Daniel (8/5): Nice hostel in the thick of things - Beds were pretty comfortable for a hostel, the kitchen came in handy as did the great pub meals which are heavily discounted for tenants. Staff were helpful and any pub concert noise was gone by 11 or 12am.
- Chelsea (8/5): - Facilities: Old;
- Alain (8/5): - Value: Reasonable;
- Craig (10/5): - Facilities: Home away from home; Value: A steal; Service: Phenomenal; Cleanliness: Immaculate;
so close to the whitsundays, just incredible
- anna (8/5): - Facilities: Basic; Value: Cheap; Service: Friendly; Cleanliness: Tidy;

Everything is within walking distance, didnt have to go far to certain places :) (takeaways, woolies, clubs, bottleloo etc)
- Kiel (10/5): -
- Katrina (6/5): - Service: Polite; Cleanliness: Filthy, Grubby;
- Rhyanno (8/5): -
for what you pay its expected
- Natasha (8/5): -
- Luke (6/5): -
If doing a Whitsundays trip you have to pay for them to hold your luggage when we were told it was free
- Rachel (10/5): - Value: Great deal;
Very clean backpackers & great half priced meal and drink deal with the stay. Right in the heart of Airlie's main strip, great bar and live bands
- Dorothea (10/5): - Facilities: Top of the line, Home away from home; Value: Fantastic; Service: Remarkable; Cleanliness: Spotless;
- linda (8/5): - Facilities: Basic; Value: Average price; Service: Go the extra mile; Cleanliness: Filthy, Grubby;
- Belinda (6/5): - Facilities: Good; Value: Moderate; Service: Professional, Friendly, Courteous; Cleanliness: Tidy, Neat, Bathroom was filthy;
When booking we thought price was quite reasonable until we reached the destination and found they were the most expensive by over $10 a day
- Megan (6/5): - Facilities: Nothing special; Value: Average price; Cleanliness: Dirty;
Overall it was fine. The decor was a bit tired looking and it wasn't very clean but the sheets and beds were clean and good.
