this is my favorite place to stay in Oudtshoon, my second home· It is not a backpackers place, not a 5* hotel, but this is way better : It is a wonderful house, very tastefully decorated, a lot of charm and very peaceful. the kitchen is well organised. the outdoor is perfect to chill or have a braii, , beautiful view . Ilse is a wonderful host, she does everything to make her guests feel like home, it is a magical place. Thanks Ilse for opening your wonderful place to the traveller, can't wait to see you again

At the hostel, the rooms are fitted with a terrace with a garden view. The Joint Backpackers features certain rooms that include mountain views, and each room is equipped with a shared bathroom with a shower. Guest rooms have bed linen.

wow! this hostel was just beyond my expectations... literally had everything you could need. At Joint backpacker you don't feel like you are in a hostel, but at home. The owners treated me like family and were super helpful with everything. Really kind people! One of the fewest hostels who doesn't think only about money and cares a lot about people and the guests. Good location, clean hostel, comfortable beds, and good WiFi - all for a very good price! 100% recommended. Thank you René and JP for being so amazing :)

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Everything went well from checkin to ambience to room amenities and facilities in the property. The ostrich farm was real hit and so is the room, ambience , friendly dogs, great location and secured and safe environment. Congo cave, ostrich farm and Cango wildlife ranch was the great hit! Would love to come back and spend more time. And not to mention the great friendly attitude of the property manager. Ashish, Singapore
