Awesome super friendly vibe, very nice owners that will help you plan your activities. For a hostel in a small village the room is very high-end, comfortable beds your own socket & all. Good showers, even though dorm was with a lot of people it is built in a way that doesn't feel crowded.

The owner was super friendly and great to chat to, a really funny guy. The accommodation was clean and the veranda was lovely. There were loads of birds in the bushes. The veranda is shared but the people next to us weren’t a bother at all. Because there are only 8 cabins everything is really relaxed and quiet which is really nice. It is also only a short drive down to Marahau.

All hostels in Motueka

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    the backpackers was family friendly with a child’s playground, trampoline, pool table and many board games. Well equipped kitchen, BBQ area and beds are comfy. Bathrooms are new and clean. A quirky stay in a prime location. The receptionist was taking care of the property while her daughter was away and made sure we felt comfortable and safe and even offered us an extra bike lock while we were staying.
