My experience at the hostelwas amazing. The vibes at the hostel are unmatched and this is down to Kerry's brilliant décor, wooden furniture imported from Bali and a garden full of plants, it feels as if you are in your own tropical oasis. I was working at a bar down the road, and they were always really flexible with my hours, I knew I could balance both hostel work and hospitality work, which made it really easy to get into a routine. I ended up extending my stay, just like many of my friends, I could not recommend this hostel enough!

I really recommend the hostelfor solo the hostel. The tasks are really easy to get through and you can come with wishes, hostel is really flexible for what suits you. For the work you put in you get so much. Kerrie and Nathan are the loveliest hosts and let you have your freedom fully in this relaxed place. The hostel is also in a great location in central Wollongong and the city is also close to Sydney and a lot of other cool possible day trips. The best for me was the welcoming and the group being so tight. Really made me feel like part of a big family!

Staying at the hostelwas truly an unforgettable experience. I made incredible friends, got to enjoy what Wollongong had to offer and find a second home in Australia. The location is great You are 5 min walk to the beach, cute cafes and restaurants walking distance and there is a decent night scene. Work is not bad and you are done in the early afternoon. I would definitely recommend this stay!

Exceed my expectations in every way possible. The location is perfect, the work was extremely fair but what I think makes the hostelso special is the environment that it provides. The energy here is outstanding. The bonds I was able to create here are truly ones I will cherish for life. Thank you Kerrie and Nathan for your kindness and this opportunity :,)

Honestly kerialeagh was the best experience in Australia so far. The atmosphere is absolutely unbeatable, so friendly, cosy and relaxed. The workload in exchange for this sweet deal is more than worth it. Everyone works as a team to get things done and the rest of the day can be spent at one of the closest beaches, harbours, the mall, 1 hour drives to some of the most beautiful places I've ever been to such as mermaid pool. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to practice their social skills and connect with nature. Thanks Nathan and Kerry for an amazing stay.

I couldn't have imagined me spending my first world packers experience any other way. The Keiraleigh the hostelwas absolutely amazing from the guests, volunteers, and location. Everything you needed was a walk away. The beach was a 10 minute walk and bars, shops and grocery stores were just 5!! I loved my stay so much I extended it one more week without a problem :) Nathan and Kerrie are so kind and chill. The work was 10 am-12pm or sometimes 1 pm. Turning over rooms and cleaning bathrooms and communal areas was easy with help from the other volunteers. This hostel is my home away from home❤️

The hostelis a bohemian hidden treasure of Wollongong. The hosts are lovely and easygoing. I had to change my stay dates numerous times, and they accommodated me every time. Worldpacker, you only work 2hrs a day and get one day off a week. The beach is soo close! Surfboards, boogie boards, & wet suits are available for guests to use anytime for free. What's also great is you can keep all your food items in a bag in the fridge. Instead of labeling everything, just put everything in one bag and label that. I made friends here that I'll have for the rest of my life :)

I had the most amazing time at the hostel! The tasks were easy and mostly just 2 hours a day and because many volunteers are staying here at the same time it's easy to make friends and have the best group of people around you. It's been my first Worldpacker experience and I would definitely recommend it since the hostelhas a very homey atmosphere and it's easy to meet people from all over the world Also, the Hostel has a great location, it's only 15 minutes from the beach and 5 minutes to the city and the hosts are really nice :)
