The comfortable 2-star hostel is just an 11-minute walk from a Rules Beach beach. Natural sights in the area include Lady Musgrave Island, just a short stroll from the accommodation, and a beach is only 11 minutes' walk away. Agnes Water Museum and Visitor Centre is among the cultural highlights close to the Agnes Water hostel, situated 10 minutes away by car.
Some of the 72 rooms are smoke-free and equipped with blackout curtains and air conditioning. Furnished with a sofa set, some rooms also have a balcony and a sitting area. Also, the presence of dryers and bath sheets in the bathrooms ensures a comfortable stay.

Review by hotel critic
Nestled just five minutes from the beach, this hostel embraces a relaxed vibe that feels like a home away from home. The shared kitchen was well-equipped, allowing for easy meal prep, and there are outdoor dining areas where you can enjoy your meals while soaking up the sun. I particularly appreciated the free Wi-Fi available in public areas, helping me keep in touch with my research updates back in Edinburgh. While the hostel offers a range of amenities like air conditioning and a leisure room stocked with board games, what truly sets it apart is the sense of community created by guests sharing their artistic talents—musicians, artists, and even fire-twirlers unite here. For just $5, a hearty homemade dinner was a steal, further emphasizing the value proposition. Whether you’re a solo traveler or part of a group, I recommend considering Backpackers as an affordable yet enjoyable choice. Its welcoming atmosphere and proximity to stunning natural beauty could make for a memorable adventure that won’t break the bank!
