Throughly enjoyed our stay, Graham and Analise were just great (made it even better as we were there to kite and Graham is a keen kiter also) Unit one was just what we wanted, and everything we needed was provided for - view from verandah was perfect, spent a lot of time on the verandah and in the hammock (when...

The property is very clean, tidy & comfortable - very convenient location. The owners and staff anticipate your needs and have them catered for. I'd consider myself a "fussy traveller", but I was very pleased with my stay as a Castaway.

My boyfriend and I stayed in one of the ocean view rooms for 7 nights over easter. The Cocos Castaway accomodation is well equiped with a kitchenette so you are able to self cater whilst you are on West Island. As the evenings are balmy we chose to use the BBQ on our private deck most evenings to cook the... More

My first time working on Cocos and I had the perfect place to stay. Friendly and helpful hosts, the room had everything I needed and very comfortable. Made my working stay very pleasant and positive experience. Local people also friendly and helpful, accomodation close to everything - just across the road from airport - very easy to check in. Hope... More

Our first trip to the Cocos Keeling Atoll and we were not disappointed! Our accommodation overlooked the Indian Ocean so we could wake to the soothing sounds of waves breaking on the beach. The owners of Castaway made us extremely welcome as did the rest of the local community and we were quickly absorbed into the local social life. Our... More

This was our 13th trip to Cocos in 11 years and our 10th time in Castaway. Guess you could say we like the place and the accommodation. We come for the scuba diving. The accommodation is well equipped and any problems solved at the drop of a hat. This is the best accommodation on the island and central to all... More

I had just the nicest time here, although I booked a one way ticket and had trouble getting out as it was around christmas and the workers were all of back to Australia for there holiday. The restuarant was lovely and there was a good variety of food... More

We stayed at Castaway over the Christmas period. The accommodation was clean & self contained. There are even drink coolers, eskies & Ice for you when you arrive. You need to hire a scooter or Ute if you want to be able to drive around to all beaches. We hired one of the utes from Castaway. It was a newish... More
