The Espy Hostel

2.0 star property
7.6 out of 10, Good, (67)
"Great property in a great location. Clean and no bugs. Great shower pressure!! Staff was friendly and helpful. Had a tour company on site to help with bookings, which was amazing. Kitchen was helpful to have for making our own morning coffee or tea before heading out for the day. Didn’t use the pool as had been out each day all day on boats to the reef, and this location is directly across the street from the lagoon. At first we were worried as I hadn’t realized I’d booked a hostel...

5.0 star property
9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (1241)
"My adult daughter and I stayed there for couple nights to go to the Great Barrier Reef. The apartment was very spacious and really suitable for a family stay at least week…. The furniture maybe a bit outdated but was still good. My only recommendation is to have coffee pods available for the coffee machine. When I’m on vacation I need my coffee in the morning and I shouldn’t have to go look where to find coffee."
