YHA Coolangatta Gold Coast

The location is great. It's within walking distance from Coolangatta (Gold Coast) Airport. It's a good choice if you are looking for a place to stay after your flight at night. It's also not far from Kirra beach and Coolangatta. The room space is big and has plenty of space compared to other YHA in Australia which makes me comfortable with that space even in a 6-female dorm. The bathrooms and toilets are clean.

Really convenient location for a completely quiet area - 5 minutes walk to the nearest beach, a few mins walk to a frequent bus that goes to Burleigh or the airport, 10 mins walk from the airport Free parking I felt safe here around the other guests, didn’t seem like a particularly social hostel though (probably because it’s so close to the airport, a lot of people don’t stay here to meet others) Has large, cosy and clean communal areas (e.g. the pool) that are great for this price point Female bathroom was good in cleanliness although other guests brought the cleanliness of the showers down

Such a relaxed, homely, sharing, safe environment. Comfy, cosy. My tween felt comfortable as soon as we arrived - which she hadn't done at other places we'd stayed. She loved that the arcade games were free. She felt safe and comfortable to make her food in the communal kitchen, on her own. Having her feel so at home, was the best feeling of all!! Staff friendly, helpful, informative. Beds were comfy, and I was nicely surprised by the state of the bedding! There were board games, nice big couches, a dining area, table tennis set up, pool table, 4 outside court yards so u could still be outside by yourself if u wanted to. They had put the heater on in our room for our arrival, and had new ear plugs and face masks waiting for us too! So much more accommodating than the flasher places that we'd stayed!

The hostel is very close to the airport, within walking distance :) It was very convenient for us since our flight arrived late at night. Our check-in was smooth, even though it was outside of the reception's opening hours, because we had messaged them in advance. I messaged at the last minute, but they were prepared, and we found the key to our room easily. All the instructions were very clear! The room was simple but comfortable, and the facility was clean and had a well-equipped kitchen too :) We wish we could have stayed longer!

Ebony was fantastic with greeting us and very accommodating. The signs with information is helpful too. Our room was very clean :) and thanks to the staff for going above and beyond. Happy that 10pm is minimal noise and for our night stay with my child was a great night sleep. Our double bed was super comfy! Thanks ☺️ for our stay and will be back again very soon!
