Backpackers@1770

This is hostel accommodation so you will be staying in a dorm room that has an en-suite bathroom, and we have communal areas for everyone to enjoy! There is a living room area with a TV, big kitchen with seating areas, picnic bench area and a fire pit. It is a fun hostel where all staff take part in a wide range of activities, whether its going for a group surf, four-wheel driving, hiking, fire spinning on the beach or just hanging out having drinks; there will always be something for everyone. Its a sociable hostel so we encourage all staff and guests to interact!

Run by Oscar and Jazz with their side-kick pet dog Duke, Backpackers is a family owned business, which was bought in August 2015. There are three owners, Oscar and his parents Paul and Sharon. Oscar and his family have each had an extensive experience in travelling and still hold this passion. Since owning the hostel they have recreated the space and are still developing areas to complete their vision. Their vision is to have a hostel that has a chilled vibe, with artwork, eco-projects and the look of a bohemian travelling hostel. With their experience in travelling and passion for the environment, they have applied this in how they've created the hostel; they want to make it to feel like home for backpackers and give them a memorable travelling experience.

What a lovely place to be! There’s always something to do around the hostel, whether it’s board games, jam sessions, or events. I’m going to miss all the wonderful people I met. I had so much fun here and would totally recommend:)

This experience is definitely one I would recommend to any traveller. I met so many wonderful people here and made connections that I’m sure will last a lifetime. The work was as described and left time to explore the town and beach. So grateful for the opportunity to have volunteered here!

The hostel is a great place to work & you’ll meet lots of other travelers from all over during your stay here! The work is exactly what is stated in the description, and it’s a quick 2 hours every day with lots of time to spend at the beach before/after! Agnes is definitely on the smaller side but you can make the most of every day and there’s always something to do around town or at the hostel. Overall great experience!

Had a great time, the hostel crew really became family and I hope to keep these connections long after I’ve left.
Work tasks were simple and straightforward, nothing too rough. Was as described. Now and again you’d work 5 minutes later than scheduled but equally you might wrap up a few mins early some days.
Nice crew, the town itself is quite small and can be a bit slow, but if you enjoy a small beach town then it is great!

Best hostel I've ever stayed at/worked in. You become a part of a family and the town really is lovely. 10/10 recommend, but only if you like small town coastal living
