Whitsunday Wanderers Resort

Great campsite in the heart of airlie beach. Lots of things on in the bar. Very friendly staff & reasonable price sites for campervan.

Worse hostel I’ve ever booked in Aus or Europe. I booked a private for 3 nights. I couldn’t stay and left immediately. Loose stairs, torn curtains, pealing paint, only a bed sheet and no blanket and this was not the worst of it. I arrived to all the windows open, but still the room stunk I assume from deodoriser trying to cover up cigarettes and dampness. The worse was the cockroach droppings on the floor in the kitchen and alongside the bed. It gave me an asthma attack in under an hour. It was clean the floor hadn’t been swept in along time. I was just shocked when I arrive, took photos like a crime scene and frantically booked hotel in town. I didn’t last more than hour in the place. I’ve seen other feedback and their responses online so clearly they are aware of the issue but failing to bother to correct it. The excuses they give about a tropical climate is rubbish. I’d stayed the week before at Magnums backpackers which was immaculate as well as a hotel two mins walk away a no issues what so ever.

Thank god I was only here for one night. Worst hostel experience of my life. The rooms were dingy and depressing, with uncomfortable and creaky beds. It was also freezing in the night, even without the AC, and we had nothing but very thin sheets. The bathroom was filthy and flooded. It didn’t feel safe as a group of young female travellers. The wifi didnt reach the rooms so you couldn’t even get a sense of escapism from your vile surroundings unless you want to stand outside reception. Would never stay here again!
