    Amazing value for money, with a spacious and clean room. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the beach and surrounded by great shops and eateries. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, offering free surfboards and yoga sessions.

    The only thing that could make breakfast better would be to have a wider variety of items available.

    The location of the hotel is excellent, with the beach just a stone's throw away and a convenient supermarket right around the corner. there are plenty of cafes, boutiques, and restaurants in the surrounding area, providing a vibrant and lively atmosphere. the hostel offers free parking, which is a great advantage for those traveling by car.

    The cleanliness of the kitchen was a major letdown, with dirty dishes left around and clogged sinks.

    I recently stayed at a fantastic place in Byron Bay that exceeded all my expectations. The atmosphere was perfect, giving off a cool and relaxed vibe. The rooms were stylish and clean, almost like a hotel rather than a hostel. The beach was just a short walk away, making it a great location. I also loved the hostel bar, where I enjoyed delicious pizzas and cheap beer. it was an amazing stay and I would highly recommend it to others.

    The hostel had a huge kitchen with plenty of seating, making it easy to cook and dine with fellow guests. The multiple terraces throughout the hostel provided beautiful places to relax and enjoy the surroundings. Additionally, the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, providing great recommendations for things to do and see in the area. Plus, being just a block away from the beach was a huge bonus!

    My first room was unbearably hot and smelled unpleasant. The air conditioning was broken and the room was not suitable to be rented out without it.

    I recently stayed at Surf House for a few nights and it was absolutely amazing. From the moment I arrived, the staff provided exceptional service, especially Kim at reception who had outstanding customer service. The room was cozy and comfortable, and the hostel had a great vibe. The kitchen was well-maintained and clean, and it was a bonus that they offered free surfboard rentals. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the beach. I highly recommend staying here.

    I do recommend this hotel.

    I recently stayed at Surf House for a week-long surf trip. The hostel exceeded my expectations in every way. The staff, especially Alex from Neverlands in the bar and the German girl in the bar, were amazing. They made great drinks and conversation. The beds were comfortable, the rooms were clean, and the toilets and showers were top-notch. I also appreciated the fact that they had underground parking and a complimentary computer with wifi. The well-equipped kitchen and friendly reception staff from Switzerland were also highlights. I will definitely be coming back to Surf House for my next surf adventure.

    100% Recommend this hotel.
