I recently stayed at Surpoint resort with my son and was amazed at how the resort has been transformed from a place which had recently got a reputation of being dirty and run down to a complete transformation to a clean well run resort with very friendly new owners. We have stayed previously when under different management and found last... More

Firstly I want to acknowledge that I normally don't stay in backpackers/lodges however a single nights acconmodation in the area is almost impossible. I booked a queen room at Surpoint ($99). Upon arrival room was really dirty, stained sheets, uncleaned toilet and hair sticking to tiles in the bathroom - I was very disappointed. I should also clarify that I... More

I stayed at Surpoint for 3 nights while travelling round WA. The hostel is full of people working or looking for jobs and so staying for weeks or months on end. There is no backpackers/travellers atmosphere, people aren't that friendly sticking to their own clicks. If you're looking for a job and planning to stay longer, that might be a... More

As many of the reviews are from short term stays, it's hard to get a consistent rating. I on the other hand stayed here at surf point for 3 and a half months, I was here whilst working on the vineyards for my regional requirement for a second year visa. Surf point is a brilliant hostel, with great facilities, nice... More

Stayed in in december 2012, and couldn't find much to complain about. The staff are great, friendly and pointed out all the best local surf spots. Hostel itself is clean and well maintained, good sized rooms with decent beds. The kitchen is large enough lots of fridge space and the equipment works most of the time. Downside is the cutlery...

I was pleasantly surprised with the cleanliness you can tell the place is looked after. The staff work hard and you can see them present and on site all day. Kitchen was clean until 6-9ish when...

Stayed here for 4 nights over new years 2012/2013. The staff are very friendly and helpful, I even managed to lock my keys in my room late one night and someone was able to assist me. Overall the facilities are nice, 5 min walk to the beach and about 15 min drive to Marg River Town. If you stay here... More

How hard is it to keep a kitchen tidy? Seriously, it was so feral that it spoilt our stay. Then there is the dorms without the basic minimum of having a fan!!! High temperature's and a sweltering room does not make for a comfortable night sleep. Why not hire fans out to guests? I adore this area and I was... More
