Airlie Beach YHA, Whitsundays and Sustainability

Airlie Beach YHA is committed to reducing its environmental footprint through a mix of conservation and sustainable practices. We also partner with the community to participate in Earth Hour every year… wanna learn more? Keep scrolling!

Energy/Greenhouse Gas Reduction:

Low energy bulbs keep our hostel well lit, but doesn’t cost the earth
Promoting the use of public transport, the easiest way to be eco-friendly
Bathroom exhaust operated only when required, who needs fans on in an empty room?

Waste Minimisation:

Recycling stations in kitchens, common areas and office areas to recycle anything from printer cartridges to our recycled paper, to tinnies of beer, old clothes, and plastic containers
Our swap station gives second-hand goods new life!
No plastic bottles or plastic bags in site, we’re proud to only sell reusable

Water Saving Measures:

Our taps and showers are 3 star! Well, WELS 3 stars for water efficiency.
The loo? It’s dual flush for ultimate #efficiency when you use the bathroom
Signage in bathrooms encouraging guests to minimise water usage
Hostel gardens are filled with drought resistant plants to not only save water, but look cute while they do
