Went to spend one night in this hostel for Easter. I was honestly pleasantly surprised by how clean the rooms were, how great the common premises were (large dining room/living room with a fireplace). It comes with a shared fully equipped super clean kitchen. More importantly to me at least, was the super friendly and extremely warm and helpful welcoming... More

Do not expect the best comfortable place where to stay. The location is what makes the place worth it. It could be wiser to bring the place to a more modern facilities. Beds, baths and furniture could be renewed. The internet access is at all times expensive and connection does not work. Managers could think about installing a good wirless... More

I have to admit, I expected the world of this hostel, with its stunning views and comforting location.  Hate to be the one to say it, but the staff seemed quite thick.  They offered little without prompting and were hard pressed to give direct answers to simple questions like which bus to take where, what to do, and so forth....

This Hostel regularly scores in the top 5 best hostels in the world, which has everything to do with its stunning location rather than the facilities of the hostel itself, no matter how modern and welcoming they are. It is perched on a glorious beach on the North Antrim Coast with amazing views over the Atlantic Ocean, and stretching towards... More

Recently we travelled around Ireland,staying at eleven hostels/hotels.This had the best views. A most obliging staff,and a great start to our holiday. Certainly no complaints from us.Pity the whole of our visit to this beautiful island wasn't as good accommodation wise.

On a recent cycling trip my friend and I decided to stay in Whitepark Bay. It is practically on a wonderful stretch of beach. We arrived with little food and had had no luck buying locally, but fortunately the hostel can sell you basic items and offers a breakfast deal, which was great. The room and bathroom were functional and... More

I can't say enough about this hostel. Stunning location, very clean and comfortable with great facilities and excellent value for money. I travelled with my two teenage children and stayed in an ensuite room for 4 which was very cosy but there is plenty of space in the lounge, dining room and TV room as well as the outside eating/seating...
