Te Nikau Retreat in , New Zealand

One of the best hostels I stayed in. Muffins and fresh bread in the monrning, close to beach, close to pancake rocks! Matej, from Slovakia ~ 16th Mar 2013

This is hosteling done right. Being greeted by staff who actually seem to be happy to meet and help you is always a big plus. A fantastic location away from overly touristy areas, and super close to stunning walks and secluded beaches. You stay in house like accommodation, which creates a fantastic atmosphere. Having freshly baked muffins and bread every morning for a minimal price is incredible, and I loved the idea of the honesty system where you just leave money for items in the small "shop".
