Cairns - 4 Terminus Street
Welcome to Dreamtime—an award-winning budget hostel with a big heart.
If youre looking for a clean, friendly and relaxed place to stay while exploring Cairns, youve found it.
Were not a party hostel.
You can actually get a good nights sleep before chasing waterfalls, snorkelling the Great Barrier Reef or headingthe rainforest.
Dreamtime is full of character. We keep things simple, affordable and welcoming. We dont have hotel-style rooms or fancy facilities—but we do have comfy beds, clean spaces, a lush tropical garden, a great vibe and a small dedicated team who genuinely care about making your stay in Cairns memorable.
Weve travelled the world ourselves, so we know what makes a great hostel. Were always happy to share local tips, recommend our favourite hidden gems, and help you save money with discounts on tours booked through us.
Were also passionate about looking after this beautiful corner of the world. We compost, recycle, reduce single-use plastics and do our best to tread lightly, because paradise deserves a little love.
Dreamtime has been welcoming travellers since 1993, and many guests return again and again. (One even loved us enough to get a Dreamtime tattoo—were still blushing.)
Our hostel is best suited to independent travellers looking for great value, a relaxed atmosphere and friendly people.
If youre after hotel luxury, we arent your perfect match. But if you want a budget hostel with beaten up pots & pans, wed love to welcome you.
