Caravellas 149
Cairns, Australia

#5 Ranked Hostel in the World


Inside Report

Cairns is the beginning or the end of the line for many backpackers who are just touring the east coast stretch of Australia because it's the most popular jump-off point for going out to the Great Barrier Reef. The result is that everybody's ready to party.If you've just done the northern trek, you'll feel like you know half the town.

Caravellas 149 is a friendly hostel just a few blocks down from the heart of town on the Esplanade. It's the ideal place to lounge by the pool during the days and pre-funk on the large patio at night before hitting the town.

Cairns has numerous pubs with character, a few nightclubs, and even a casino for those high-rollin' backpackers.

Caravellas will help you set up a number of adventure day trips including: bungee jumping, a rainforest campout, and scuba diving and snorkeling tours out to the reef.

Perhaps the best part about Cairns is that it's a great place to rally up some troops for the east coast tour or have one last party with those you met along the way.
