A fantastic place This hostel was probably the best one I stayed at during my many months of traveling around Australia. The place is clean, calm, and cosy (you feel like being home) and the staff is extremely helpful and friendly. I actually came back there a couple of times and I was never disappointed. I would recommend this hostel anytime. It's also a place where you meet other people easily when you're traveling alone.

Best hostel in Australia This hostel is the most friendly and accommodating hostel you are likely to find, certainly in Cairns, if not Australia. The staff are always smiling and more than happy to help, the hostel is kept clean and relaxed, there is a pool to dip in, and plenty information available to book tours so it is easy to organise your whole trip! There is no reason not to stay in this hostel, good time guaranteed!

The perfect hostel if you're not a partier The only hostel I stayed at in Australia that made up my bed before I arrived and provided a towel. Very clean and comfortable, good layout. Several kitchens, so they are never crowded. Across the street from The Green Ant, a great Mexican restaurant. A quiet hostel that attracts more mature travelers -- perfect if you are not into the usual East Coast drinking scene. The only drawback here is the bathrooms are not dorm-style, they are home-style, so you may have to wait to take a shower (as I had to). Staff is very helpful and informed, definitely listen to them when deciding which dive boat to take!

It makes you feel at home! Travellers Oasis makes you feel like you're back at home! It's a small hostel so you get to know people quickly. The staff are really friendly and very helpful. The place is always clean and the colourful decor really does make you relax. Definitely not a party hostel -- it's for those who want to chill out!

We stayed here for about a week in January, a very good place to stay! Clean and comfort rooms, a nice swimming pool, and a friendly staff with very good advice about tours. If we come back, we would book here again!

One of the best Hostels in Oz. We would have stayed longer but it was fully booked. Very friendly atmosphere and nice clean rooms. Haven't a bad thing to say about this place. It was very good.

I traveled by myself all around Oz for a whole month and I stayed at Travellers Oasis in Cairns for the first six days of Nov 06. I really did appreciate the friendly atmosphere. John and the whole staff where very nice to me and I had a super time there. The rooms were nice and clean and the two kitchens too. Nice, quiet position, right behind Cairns Central, therefore easy to go shopping or see a film if one wants to. Lovely pool too. I loved my stay there and advise it to anyone going to Cairns.

Originally the plan was to stay in travellers a few nights tops, but we ended up stayin three weeks. We flew into cairns from ireland and i can honestly say this hostel was a home away from home! The last two months have been spent travelling down the east coast and nothing has compared to travellers, they supply duvet and ovens which are a rarity in any other hostel and the staff were really nice,very helpful! Have to say everything was clean which is really important. we'd really recommend this to anybody who loves meeting other people as other hostels can be really formal and huge.

We stayed here in May 2006. Great atmosphere, very friendly, and very clean hostel. The owners, Gabe and Cathy, who also own the Travellers Oasis in Cairns are very experienced in helping travellers, having done a lot themselves. Very good at judging what type of tour would suit you. Double rooms at the back with private balcony are nice and intimate. If you're unlucky however you might get a night owl cooking in the kitchen located at the other end of the hallway. It doesn't have a door on it so you could be kept awake. Would stay there again. Best hostel we stayed in Australia!

Just back to the U.K. from Oz. Whilst on a flying visit (four weeks) I landed in Cairns and made my way to Travellers Oasis. Original plan to stay one night and then move on. But with the excellent advise from the owners Gabe and Cathy (and not forgetting wondeful accommodation) I used this hostel as a base for exploring the rainforest and barrier reef. Hence was at this hostel for five nights. It is certainly one of the best and most friendly hostels you can stay at. Cathy and Gabe are there to help/answer any questions or provide travel advice when you need them. They also have big plans to make this hostel even better -- renovating all rooms, etc.

I visited this hostel last year in October and it was really nice. Clean rooms, nice staff and really nice guests. Everyone helps you if you don't know in which direction you should travel the next time. I really enjoyed my time in this hostel! Thanks for everything!!

Centrally located, and consistently providing friendly service, Travellers Oasis is both relaxing and relatively close to Cairns' best attractions. I found the staff to be very friendly and helpful and honest about the many attractions that Cairns has to offer, not forgetting the lovely people and guests you meet on the way. I was there in December 2004, and I shall return in the near future.

Laid back atmosphere. The room was a bit small though and the kitchen wasn't that nice. Air-conditioning was free and so was the internet, if you win a coin toss with the owner!
