Arrived into the hostel at about 9am and was greeted with a big smile at the reception. Had no cash at the time but was cool to pay later in the day. I was put in a 4 bed dorm, complete with my own double bed :O. First and last time in months. Lovely room with bathroom, seating just outside,... More

Lovely setting in Mission Beach, all staff extremely friendly. The reception closed at 7 and after this there was no number to call if required. We stayed in a private room which was pretty basic, the reason we did was we wanted to watch a football match that night, the tv did not work in the room and there was... More

When I stayed here, it was full of longtermers. I met a few nice people, but for the most part it was overrun with people working there or staying there for the longterm.

Unless you're doing a skydive, there's not a lot to do at Mission Beach. However, if you are skydiving, then this is the place to stay. The hostel was friendly and with all the amenities you'd expect from a standard backpackers including clean kitchen, tv room and comfortable beds. Added to this, the hostel has a pool and even a...

We stayed here for one night in a double ensuite on our way from Townsville to Cairns. We had pick up from the Greyhound bus stop which was great and were able to check in at ~11am. The hostel is very chilled out, right next to the beach and has great facilities. The room was quite small but had AC... More

There are not many hostels where staff will immediately make you feel at home, but Scotty's is certainly one of them. I'd like to say thanks to the extremely friendly and helpful staff, and I've enjoyed every minute of my stay in the lovely, colourful rooms (stayed in a double) that are set around the great pool. If you're traveling... More
