About us

After 15 years in the business this friendly hostel still offers excellent service from staff who will happily share the secrets of the little Karoo, arrange a wide variety of activities from their adventure and travel centre and almost guarantee sunshine!
Stretching over four properties, nothing will cramp your style during your stay here. In fact, the relaxed atmosphere is a little addictive, so don’t be surprised if you end up staying longer than planned.
Once you’ve settled in, check e-mails in their internet café, grabba beer from the pub (which is far from any sleep desiring bodies), plonk your hot bod into the cool pool, sloth out in front of the telly or lay claim to the balcony and watch the sun blaze its way to bed.
