Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    My stay at Zuider Zee Guesthouse in Salt Rock was amazing! Gavin, the host, was incredibly kind, helpful, friendly and organized. The place was safe, neat, tidy, super clean and cozy, and it's in a great location. I felt safe and cared for the whole time, and Gavin even made sure I got in okay when my flight was delayed. Can't wait to stay here again next time I'm in Salt Rock!

    Great location. Clean and well looked after. Great hosts. Room was big enough for a blow up mattress for our toddler which the hosts provided. Also had a nice and spacious bathroom. Pool was also clean and we enjoyed many swims. Felt safe and peaceful... nothing was stressful about this holiday.

    Everything else. Beautiful deco, clean, exceptional view, safe, great location. The host was kind. Didn't use much in the house due to a short stay but it was great to see that all I could need was provided for.
