Mission Beach is a fabulous backpacker lodge. The owners are wonderful people who run a tight ship with their staff, and the place is spotless. They are also very kind and helpful. We turned up in out camper van with no site, and they offered us use of the facilities and a parking space for a reduced rate (as we... More

Nice clean hostel. Big TV, clean kitchen, friendly staff but the only people staying there were mainly staff and there is nothing to do bar the skydive. Its nice if you want to relax for a night we were in a nine bedroom dorm and there were only three other people so your paying for the cheapest and getting like... More

I have had the opportunity to stay in several places as I traveled through Queensland. Some have been good, some mediocre, and some terrible. Mission Beach Retreat is definitely one of the nice ones! The owners are very friendly, knowledgeable, and always willing to help, whether it is with questions about the hostel, things to do in the area, or... More

This is such a nice hotel with a very chilled out vibe. It's clean and comfortable and the staff were just lovely which is really important. Don't be put off by the fact that its 4km to the shop as they give free lifts several times a day and it means you are literally right by the beach, although you... More

Loved it here, bedrooms clean and with air con, bathrooms clean (although only had 1 to share between 9 people) and kitchen and communal areas more than adequate. Located in actual mission beach village but have to drive to get to woolworths and the bottle shop, but the hostel provides several trips a day to do this! Staff so friendly... More

This would have to be one of the best experiences that I have had while travelling. Unbelievably clean, very welcoming staff and all around a wonderful experience.Mission Beach Retreat is so laid back, but not over the top. Beautiful pool, and every facility that you could want, but definitely not a glitzy sort of place.

Stayed there in 2006, found new friends and fell in love with another. Stayed there again October 2012 and got married. This is to say a huge thanks to Richard and Anthea and their team at the time. These guys made our stay and marriage fantastic. Who would have ever thought that a Backpackers wedding can turn out 10 out... More

Even though it rained our whole time there, the staff were really nice couldn't do enough for you, rooms were clean, air con bit dodgy but beds comfy and bathrooms clean! Would definitely recommend this place ;)

We stayed in the hostel for one night in a doubleroom. Mission beach is small with a few shops so everything (including the beach) is close to the hostel. The staff (we met one) were really nice and helpful which was very positive. The room, however, was not clean and the sheets had spots. We saw mold in some of... More
