Agnes Water / Town of 1770 Hostels

"1770 is one of my fondest memories of Oz, and it's mainly down to Cool Bananas. Greg's enthusiasm for the area is contagious, and he runs a great hostel, as well as being a generous and top notch bloke. I'd like to think 1770 never became any more popular, as it was great to get away from the rest of the backpacker rat-race. This was two years ago though, I imagine it's changed a lot already. I still hope to visit again one day, and this will definitely be the hostel I stop in." … "I stayed at Cool Bananas last September--it is...  more »

"1770 Beachside Backpacker is brand new and owned by local people. They try their hardest to make your stay enjoyable but due to the location it seems a sleepy little place tucked away in the middle of nowhere.

"I came here after staying somewhere else and what a difference this place had made to my stay. 1770 Backpackers may not be as big or new as others but I tell you what, the staff here are the best I have seen since being in Australia.
