I’m not used to sleep in a dorm so I choose a girls only dorm. We were 4 (out of 6 beds available). The 3 bottoms beds were taken so I took a top bed. I had no plug next to my bed I had to plug my phone on the plug next to my roommate face (bottom bed) which is zero privacy if I need to unplug it I literally need to lay on her face.. Lucky I had a 1,5m cable tho.. no light either next to each bed.. oh and also absolutely no room to stock my food in the kitchen, every closet were taken and when I asked one “resident” where I could put my food he said “find a place”. Not really friendly.. The hostel was quite and most of people were friendly even if I spent Friday and Saturday night There it was not too noisy. Nathan at the reception was great and very friendly ! Would recommend for people who like dorms.. which is not my stuff but that’s personal..

I liked the location, just a couple of hundred metres to everything downtown, but back enough to be quiet at night. There are only three carparks inside, so be quick!

YHA always trustworthy standard

Good clean hostel centrally located for a night stop before cruise. Double rooms only share bathroom with one other room so almost en-suite for excellent price. Pool warmth a bonus!

We arrived late and luckily caught the manager who let us in with no problem - such a good bloke! There were only three car parks at the place which wasn’t ideal but eventually found one of them to park in. A good stay overall.

Average accommodation

Pretty average experience here. Good location, but not particularly lively. A lot of WHV guests. Pool had some debris and wasn’t particularly inviting. Balconies on each room was a nice feature. I would consider investigating other options if I came to Airlie Beach again, but this was acceptable accommodation. It didn’t exceed any expectations for a hostel.
