Reviews and Ratings
The hostel is ideally located in Nomads+Base, very close to all the bars, restaurants, and takeaways. The rooms are spacious and clean, providing a sociable environment, but the thin doors can make it noisy at times. The service is exceptional, with a special shout out to Katie at reception for making the whole process super easy and enjoyable for solo travelers. The location is fantastic, right on the main street with convenient access to everything in lovely Airlie Beach, although some attention to foliage maintenance would enhance the surroundings. The dining experience is clean and nice, offering a satisfying meal with options like French fries. Overall, a great value for money accommodation option with excellent facilities.
The hotel was a great spot, surrounded by trees and birds, offering a good nightlife atmosphere. The rooms were clean, spacious, and ideal for a group of 8 girls. The service was friendly throughout our stay, despite being super busy upon our arrival. While the location was perfect in the heart of Airlie Beach, the nearby nightclub music until 3 am was a downside. The dining experience was nice, and the facilities were well-kept.
The resort has stunning, clean rooms with a great layout and spacious accommodations. The staff, especially Sky, are incredibly friendly, although their late-night surprise visits can startle you. The location is ideal, close to the lagoon, bars, and the harbor. The property is vast, but some areas appear neglected. Dining options are limited but decent. The value for the facilities provided is excellent.
My stay at the hostel was fantastic! The rooms were spacious and always clean, making it easy to organize my belongings. The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly, ensuring a welcoming atmosphere. The location was superb, central to both the beach and city attractions. The dining options were nice, offering local and seasonal products. However, the connection was a bit slow, and the closing time was early, limiting activities.
The hotel offers spacious rooms that are very clean with 2 big pools, providing a lot of space. While the rooms might be considered over-priced for their condition, they do resemble a small apartment.
