I had an amazing stay at this hostel. Everywhere was very clean especially the kitchen. The owner Greg was very welcoming amd great fun. There is plenty of communal areas and overall had a great atmosphere, would love to go back!

this place is a jewel! I wish I had more time to stay here, as we had such a great time. the kitchen is the cleanest kitchen, i've been in australian hostels (even at busy times). The staff are running around and bending over backwards to help everyone. The manager greg is amazing, so many stories and when i reacted... More

I really liked Cool Bananas. The rooms and bathrooms were extremely clean. I felt the hostel was more like a home than a backpackers. Nice living room area for watching movies or outside area by the kitchen to eat and drink. Some nights there are $6 dinners which looked amazing. The owner was loud, fun and eccentric but I never...

Agnes waters has not soo much to offer, except your first Surf-lessons and some nice bicycle rides, but the cool bananas is compensating this. I stopped there in order to break the big greyhound rides from north to south and end up staying for 4 nights mainly because of the hostel.

This hostel has the ability to be very very good, the washrooms are big and the living area where you can watch films is big and good to socialise.The rooms are a little small and the hamocks are awesome to hang out. The kitchen is a little small but means you get to chat to people more. The place is... More

Loved cool bananas building and how it was set out, really relaxed, hammocks, spacey and clean. However on many occasions you can hear a man (employee of, either manager or owner) shouting and swearing, when watching TV with at least 10 others, hes shouting on the phone 'tell me who the f'''' he is or come f''''' find him for...

One of the only hostels full of people who are recommended through word of mouth. I planned to have 2 days in this Town and originally planned to be shovelled into another hostel until a girl stood up on the bus and shouted all come to cool Bananas- Trust me! I ended up at Cool Bananas and immediately extended my... More
