More accommodation can be easily built to provide for further guests. There is a 2000 square meter area of cleared land around the hostel.
The hostel could provide meals and establish a restaurant. The bar is underutilised and could be developed further. Entertainment nights have proven popular and could become a regular event.
More extensive marketing and coordination with student travel associations, brochures at transit terminals and networking with other hostels would add to the popularity of the hostel
Mission Beach is only a short drive to Cairns – 140 kilometres or 1 hour 57 minutes drive time, Treehouse hostel is perfectly positioned to capture more of the tourist industry that flock to Cairns annually
