Spent 4 nights here in mid January, the first thing to say is how fantastic the staff are, cheerful and helpful at all times. The room that we stayed in was a private double, the bathroom facilities were shared with guests in two other rooms. Rooms are spacious enough, they lack a bit of storage space but the small balcony... More

I stayed at this hostel for 7 days in March. The hostel was very nice and clean like many reviews have stated. The only and big problem where the owners and staff. I wasn't a first time visitor and had lived in Cairns before, so I had lots of contacts in town. In the beginning owners and staff where very... More

On freezing, frosty mornings in London, memories of Travellers Oasis warm me. The fact the hostel is beautiful, clean, spacious and considered provide the perfect bed on which to make life-long friends and create a unique holiday experience. It is an understatement to call the staff friendly; they will go out of their way to include you, look after you... More

Travellers Oasis is not just a hostel. It's a home where you instantly become part of their big family. I've been coming back several times, it's just too good a place. I would never stay anywhere else in Cairns! The staff is amazing and always ready to help. They really know everything about the tours and the area. The guests... More

A clean, well run and squeaky clean hostel without bunks - I had a single room which had it's own fridge - although the communal fridges seemed well maintained for those in shared rooms. The pool was blissful, the kitchens well stocked with pots and pans, etc. and cleaned throughout the day...the bathrooms were also a pleasure to use. The... More

All the excellent ratings have already mentioned most things. I personally loved the single beds, loved the no bunk beds policy! The bed is really comfortable!! The staffs are really friendly, welcoming & helpful which makes me really feel like going home everynight when I returned. My jetstar flight was cancelled within 24 hours of departure time which they arranged... More

The backpacking highlight of my trip to Australia. I've wanted to rave about this place for more than a year but only just got round to it, better late than never I guess! Most friendly staff I ever encountered. I arrived in Cairns with a stuck back and they sorted me out immediately with a chiropractor, even driving me there.... More

Really loved this hostel - it's clean, friendly and fun. We (2 female travellers) stayed in a 4-bed mixed dorm with a couple. The rooms were simple and clean and there was plenty of space to cook, eat and chill out in the communal areas. Lots of evening activities and other friendly travellers - so good if you're on your...

My wife and I stayed in a shared 2 person room. The room had a refrigerator and an air conditioner included in it. The air conditioner was only $1 for 3 hours of use. At first we thought it was expensive, but the 3 hours seemed to be a long time and was well worth it after spending all day... More
