“It has been a pleasure to stay… Your friendliness and your smiles made us feel at home instantly… A great place for groups!”
Bakketun College, Norway
“We find Collaroy is a perfect setting for our Outdoor Education Programmes and one of Sydney’s best kept secrets. The beach located across the road from the hostel is perfect for learning to surf, beach activities and along with the relaxed atmosphere in town create the perfect balance for our students to get the most out of their programme. It’s no wonder it feels like you are coming to a friend’s house when you stay at Sydney Beachouse YHA. We have always found the staff to be friendly, accommodating and above all go beyond what is expected from of them. We are happy to recommend this hostel to anyone wanting a positive experience for their groups stay.”
Vanessa Guy, Encompass Outdoors, Waitara NSW
“Sydney Beachouse YHA is the perfect location for a school camp. The mix of relaxing beach culture and big city fun was great for our group. The staff were extremely helpful and having our own longue room made the trip a breeze. Our girls loved staying at the YHA in Collaroy.”
Lara Croucher, Lyneham High School
“The NSW Country Schools Rugby Union have been using the Sydney Beachouse as a base for our U18 and U16 training camps. Our association with the Beachouse has developed over the past 6 years. We have always found the staff professional, informative and flexible. The rooms are comfortable and suit the needs of the players in this age demographic. Meals are filling and appropriate to the nutritional needs of young rugby players. Recreational facilities and the proximity to the village of Collaroy have proved welcome distractions for players and staff. We can foresee our association continuing into the future. ”
John Guy Manager NSW Country Schools 1st XV
“Since our association with the Sydney Beachouse over the past 10 years we have always found that the staff and management extended great service with a smile to our students coming from all over Australia and overseas. As a leading provider to the maritime industry, ‘quality service and support’ is utmost in our mission to ensure that we have ‘happy sailors and crew’. Thanks James and Jarrod for sharing this mission, you run a tight ship! Happy sailing!!”
