  • Lovely hostel


    They have a nice garden and a "tree house". Perfect location, as well. The supermarket is just at the back of the hostel and the bakery is just right beside it.
    They also serve free apple crumble every night.

  • A home away from home


    Such a lovely hostel that feels more like you are staying in a cosy cottage than a hostel.

    The hostel is in a great location to the town and the water front and all of the amazing walks.

    The staff were always friendly and chatty especially when serving their apple crumble!

    I will be suggesting this hostel to everyone passing through Picton. Thanks for the stay!

  • Sweetest cozy place to stay in picton!


    The sweetest and best place to stay in picton! Literally!

    The hostel its clean, neat and really cozy. The bathroom as well with hot showers at every hours. The lounge and the kitchen tidy, spaceful and full of tools ready to use. Good oven and microwave. The garden outside is wonderful, lots of blooming flowers in this season that makes it even better. Amazing bbq area and hot pool spa!

    The apple crumble in the evening is super goooood! Try it!!

    The staff is friendly, simphatetic, and useful! Ready to drink a beer with you sharing their esperiences and adventours!

    Here you can find a family rather than a simple hostel esperience. I really recommend it. Cheers

    Stayed a night, and found the atmosphere very friendly and welcoming.

    Easy walking distance to the beach and eateries as they are all nearby.

  • A little feel of home


    The Villa feel like a home away from home. Simple, but cosy, it's probably one of the sweetest place to stay in New Zealand with his cute outside area. It's clean, tidy and friendly.

    I stayed there when I arrived on the South island, stayed there again before going back to the North island and would definitely stop there again if I go back to New Zealand one day.

  • Nice ambiance


    Comfortable, clean and quiet. The shared facilities provided any of the extras that we wanted.

    Villa Backpackers Lodge has a nice ambiance.
