Wilderness Beach House Backpackers Lodge offers a mixed experience when it comes to sleeping accommodations. While the dormitory beds are often praised for their comfort, guests have noted a few limitations. The beds are quite low, making it difficult to sit comfortably on the lower bunks. The bunk design reportedly does not interfere with tranquility, as the dormitory remains peaceful and free of noise disturbances.
Some reviewers find the pillows excellent, enhancing their comfort during rest. On the downside, however, there's a consensus that mattresses tend to be quite hard, which some travelers might find challenging. Additionally, a few guests shared that the beds can be uncomfortable, with some beds being short, and others made up of two single mattresses with separate duvets.
Despite the comfort of the dormitory itself, other environmental factors seem to detract from the sleeping experience. The lack of curtains on the windows results in early light flooding the rooms, which may disturb those hoping to sleep in past dawn.
