The only beach retreat hostel in Vancouver.

Just 20 minutes by bus from downtown Vancouver is this laid-back beach retreat for those who want to relax without paying for it. Situated a block from miles of sandy beaches and surrounded by gorgeous parkland, Jericho's unique spot enables guests to feel the folksy grooves of yesteryear. Originally built as an airman's barracks in the 1930s, for the past 34 years it has played host to the throngs of people attending the annual Jericho Folk Fest, and for anyone else who needs a little nature in their urban experience.

We have a great licensed cafe on site, open for breakfast and dinner. We also have a large guest kitchen, TV room, on-site Internet access, laundry facilities, sports equipment, bike rentals, and almost unlimited parking. We provide all linens and towels (and a duvet), and lockers in a very safe and secure environment. Have game of soccer or volleyball or take part in some fantastic HI tours!

We are a summer-only hostel: Open May 1st to September 30th.
