Little Drifter Bondi
About Our Bondi Beach Hostel
Soak up the sun, surf, and laid-back vibes at Little Drifter Bondi Beach, where Australia’s most famous beach is just 5 minutes on foot from our Bondi Beach backpacker hostel.
Surf before breakfast, work from the co-working space, cook dinner with people you met that morning. This is backpacker accommodation in Bondi that reads more like modern co-living. More than just a stay, this is your chance to dive into the quintessential Aussie beach lifestyle, relax, explore, and connect with fellow travellers.
Six room types, one central location
After your own space in Bondi but still wanting communal facilities? The Private Suite and the Loft Room give you a secure lockable room but access to the same beach 300 metres away. Every room in our Bondi backpackers hostel comes with free Wi-Fi, secure storage and access to all communal spaces such as the lounge and kitchen.
Shared Suites and Shared Pod Suites are the most affordable beds at Bondi Beach. Superior Shared Suites when you want a little more room to spread out. Female-Only Shared Suites for a girls trip away.

Whether you’re after the privacy of your own space or the social energy of a shared room, our Bondi Beach backpackers has you covered. The communal kitchen is the heart of the hostel, cook up a big batch, share it with whoever’s around and swap stories from the day. When it’s time to slow down, kick back in the dining area or head to the games space for a little friendly competition.
Need to get things done? There’s a co-working space with fast, free Wi-Fi, plus guest laundry and secure storage to make life on the road that little bit easier. And with the sand just 300 metres away, morning swims and sunset beach sessions are always on the cards.
When you’re ready to swap beachside living for the buzz of the city, Sydney’s CBD is just a train ride away. Beach at your doorstep and the city within easy reach, that’s why Drifters love to stay.
