Tube ‘n Axe

Eastern Cape


The social centre of this party hostel is the large bar and restaurant area that opens onto a large fire pit. A range of accommodation is available, including six- and 14-bed dorms, nicely decorated private rooms, log cabins and elevated two-person safari tents.

When it’s busy, noise can be an issue in some of the rooms in and around the main building.
