BUG Review
This lovely hostel has only 20 rooms on two floors with large balconies on both sides. The whole place is painted in white and pastel yellow, giving it a very breezy feel. Everything here, especially the bathroom, is new and immaculately clean. There are two kitchens, which are small but also new and clean. They don't offer many on-site facilities but guests have free use of bikes and body boards. It is not a party hostel, but most travellers don't come to Caloundra to party anyway. Management couldn't be sweeter.

RECENTLY STAYED HERE FOR 1 NIGHT ON THE WAY TO NOOSA. MANAGER IS REALLY HELPFUL AND PICKED US UP FROM THE BUS STOP(15 MINS AWAY) FOR A SMALL FEE.

IMMACULATE FACILITIES, LARGE KITCHEN WITH LOTS OF APPLIANCES, TV ROOM + LOVELY OUTDOOR BALCONY AREA. CALOUNDRA WAS VERY QUIET BUT WE ONLY ARRIVED AT 10PM+ LEFT AT 5AM.

We just recently spent 2 nights at this hostel and had a great time. The Manager was very helpful and friendly. We took the bus to Caloundra and were dropped off quite a ways out from the center of town. Dave came to get us (for a small fee). The hostel is about 3 mins from the water and about 4 mins from the CBD. We got in late on a public holiday and Dave gave us suggestions on where we could eat for cheap. There is a great bakery near by with cheap pizza! There is also a supermarket and shopping fair less than 100m from the hostel. The kitchen and common areas are clean and well maintained. We had a nice double room with en suite. It was also very clean. We would highly recommend this hostel.
