Not just a dorm bed, a real holiday experience!

Want to stay at a hostel like no other on the East Coast?! Find it here at 1770 Southern Cross Tourist Retreat.  The perfect stop off between your Fraser and Whitsundays trips.

With spacious (and immaculately clean!) ensuite dorms, doubles and shared dorms at budget prices from $24 per night, you'd be mad to miss out on the ultimate in luxury backpacker accommodation.

The only hostel in town with a swimming pool for you to laze around during the days, not to mention our  6.5 hectares of land, hammocks and picturesque lake – and all just a hop away from the beach/Agnes Water on our free shuttle bus running all day long.

With tours galore to choose from - Scooteroo, National Park tours, kayaking, visiting the reef, diving, surfing, flights over 1770 – you won't want to leave! And if that doesn't keep you busy, there's always pool, table tennis, volleyball, BBQs, free bike-hire, beach cricket days, internet, games and over 250 free DVDs to hire and watch on our huge plasma TV in our large common area. 

Come and play guitar around the campfire with toasted marshmallows and a glass of Goon, or just chill out with a book in our hammocks in the most beautiful of surroundings.

Our guests come for a couple of days, and want to stay a couple of weeks!  With free breakfast, free tea and coffee all day, free linen, and all the usuals you‚d expect from a modern hostel, we hear time and time again that 1770 Southern Cross Retreat has been travelers favourite stop-off on the East Coast.

Come and find out for yourselves why we are Highly Recommended by Lonely Planet 2008 (and that's pretty recent, so we can guarantee it's still the place to be!)
