Nomads Magnetic Island - Magnetic Island, Queensland

The food here is incredible and the bar games are good fun. The hostel is right on the beach so lovely for sunsets. However, the 6 dorm hostel rooms we stayed in were dusty, unclean and very small considering 6 of us were supposed to fit with all of our luggage and the music at night was way too loud and the DJ was shocking. One of our girls bedding was also brown on the inside. I wouldn't stay here again and wouldn't recommend it either as there are much nicer hostels on the island.

Amazing location and a bus that runs multiple times per day to the hostel. We had fun at the events and the food was very good. We had a separate room which was amazing right on the water. Our friend stayed in the dorms and also had good vibes.

We had the best stay at nomads in magnetic island ever. The location is perfect and you feel like you’re living on a tropical island. It’s such a chilled place by the sea. Location 10/10.
As much as it was chilled, the evening was so much fun too and completely different vibes. Harry was amazing at getting everyone involved, including us who started the night refusing to do karaoke & ended up singing about 10 songs. We sang and danced all night even though there wasn’t many of us there, Harry got everyone together and created such a good vibe we had the best night ever. Would recommend the hostel highly (especially if you get a night of karaoke with Harry hehe)

Great spot! Good people. Only one note, they make the food with their bare hands. Hamburgers, breakfast ingredients touching without gloves.

If the kitchen would start wearing gloves and use better hygiene in the kitchen that would be great.

Rooms are absolutely disgusting and filthy. Beds are old. Air conditioning is absolutely disgusting and desperately need cleaning. Beds are hard. Rust all over the bunk beds.

Burgers served are really good.
Staff are OK
Location is OK for a tiny island.

Worst nomad I have stayed it.

The most amazing hostel I ever stayed at! With the small houses and the location it does not feel like a hostel but like a beach resort in paradise. Additionally great restaurant and bar with amazing beach view and fun activities. All the staff was was super friendly and helpful but our special thanks go to the night manager Pascal who made everything possible for us. Certainly a 10 out of 10 rating!

Great views and lovely staff members. It’s a bit noisy at night time but only good vibes. Asked if a dorm with ocean view was still available and they moved me without any problems.

I stayed at Nomads for 2 nights and it was good! It is a very social hostel but if you don’t stay too close to the bar area, you can’t hear the noise. My room had an amazing ocean view and you can also walk to a very nice lookout point. However, a small con is that there is a lot of people staying there so the bathrooms aren’t super clean and that the kitchen is very small compared to the amount of people using it and it doesn’t have a lot of tools. But overall, a decent stay!
