I literally just finished my stay at Traveller's Oasis and couldn't wait to write them a glowing review! I booked myself for a three night stay in a 4-person room and did all my tour bookings through them as well. Helen and Kerri were very helpful over email, even before I met them, with useful comments on tours I had... More

No shortage of pots pans etc. Free spices and tea and coffee on offer. Missed the BBQ night on Monday but had an amazing all you can eat pizza night.... More

Such an amazing place to stay. It feels like a home away from home. Wouldn't recommend staying here if you're looking for a crazy party hostel as the atmosphere is more laid back and chilled out at nights. They do awesome pizza and BBQ nights and also have free DVDs, tea/coffee and spices. I stayed here for 1 week as... More

Stayed at Tropic Days at the end of a hectic 3 week tour up the east coast and was exactly what I needed. Staff very friendly and welcoming. Hostel was spotless. The atmosphere was so laid back with hammocks lining the garden. Price was amazing for all the extras such as wifi and free shuttle to central Cairns. Can't wait... More
