Reviews
The place is a perfect location, the staff running the hostel are wonderful people and the vibes were immaculate. The kitchen has food facilities.The bunk rooms have charging points but they are not next to the bedThere are regular activities here and it is a 5/10 minute walk from the beach.I drew over faces for privacy as I don’t have permission from anyone in the photo to post but every time they collect new guests from the greyhound drop off they dress as bananas. It’s pretty funny. As a guest you can join in too if you’d like.
What an amazing place full of lovely people! I had such a great time here, wish I could have stayed longer. This hostel is probably the most social one I’ve been to in Australia, which I as a solo traveller really appreciate. Every single person there was super kind and warm hearted. I immediately got a bunch of new friends, we sat together and played card games, everyone felt directly included. The vibe there is just outstanding 🥰 The rooms and common areas are simple, but very clean and in the kitchen you find everything you could need for cooking. There are also a lot of group activities like bonfire at the beach and when the next greyhound arrives, almost the whole hostel walked to the station to welcome the new guests. And, one of the best things I ever did – you can take a private scenic flight with Lorenzo, where you even get to control an airplane by yourself 🤫 Don’t miss this place! And plan a little bit more time here, that’s just paradise ❤️
I had an amazing time at Cool Bananas! It was a pleasure meeting the owner and the friendly staff. The location is perfect. 5 min walk to the beach, grocery stores, liquor shops and bars/restaurants. The staff was super friendly, including the Hostel Dog! It was a great and cosy vibe. We had bonfires, played games and volleyball and many other great activities. I would definitely recommend the hostel to everyone who is looking for a great fun time. It was very clean (kitchen and bathroom were cleaned very frequently).5/5! Highly recommend it!
I absolutely loved my stay at Cool Bananas! The vibe here is super chill and laid-back, but still has a great social atmosphere. Evenings around the campfire with a beer were such a highlight – the perfect way to meet other travelers and unwind. The staff are incredibly friendly and approachable, always around for a chat or to help with anything you need. I also highly recommend the flight tour where you actually get to fly the plane! It’s a unique and unforgettable experience – the instructor is super relaxed and makes you feel totally at ease from the start. Such a cool adventure! Would definitely come back. Thanks for the amazing memories!
Wir waren mit dem Camper da. Man kann hinter dem Hostel übernachten und für 15$ pp die duschen, Küche und co nutzen. WLAN hat leider nicht funktioniert. Nettes Personal und coole Gäste 🙂
I booked the 3 day adventure pack, which for me included a plane ride (got to drive it myself, and thanks to Lorenzo!!), an awesome boat ride by the owner and a surfing lesson by one of the workers. I really had a great time here! It didn’t feel like a commercial place, they like personal contact. The hostel itself is very spacious, nice outdoor area, big rooms and a big kitchen. The people were very social. Thank you Cool Bananas!
