Receive discounts on all tours that are booked with our knowledgable and entertaining team. Dreamtime has successfully been welcoming guests since 1993, and when you walk through the gate you really feel like you've picked the right place to stay. One of our guests enjoyed their stay so much he got a Dreamtime tattoo! We really do make an impression on people! We are designed for short-stay international travelers, and from experience, we have found that mature travelers over 60 & young families with children under 12 are not so well suited to our style of accommodations. We want to serve our guests to the best of our ability and do not want to disappoint anyone. Please bear this in mind. Standard Policies: As we are a small, independent hostel, our reception is open from 9.00am - 5.00pm. A valid passport is required for all guests. Late check-in's are ok. If you plan to arrive after 6pm, please email or call us 2-3 days before you arrive with a screenshot of your passport, and we will provide instructions on how to self-check-in. Email: stay@dreamtimehostel.com Phone: (07) 4000 0467 (between 8am - 6pm) We have a storage cupboard for luggage. If you need to hang around while you wait for your flight, you are welcome to use our facilities. Also - there is an awesome cafe right next door to us. The coffee is amazing. We operate with a maximum 14-day stay policy in any 30 day period. Any bookings made to accumulate more than 14 days will be canceled. No shows will be charged the first night's accommodations. We have a pretty laid-back atmosphere at Dreamtime. However, to maintain our chilled atmosphere we do not allow: Children under 12 years of age.
