The JAAC (Jersey Accommodation & Activity Centre) offers a welcoming and adaptable atmosphere situated in the tranquil rural landscape of St Martin, near the charming fishing village of Gorey. Its location provides both peaceful surroundings and convenient access, being just a short walk from Gorey Castle and the port, which boasts a selection of restaurants and bars. Guests can enjoy the beautifully manicured grounds and benefit from proximity to public transport and beaches, with Grouville Beach only a 12-minute walk away, making it an ideal countryside retreat.
The centre provides diverse accommodation options, including private en-suite rooms suitable for leaders or couples, multi-bed rooms designed for groups of 4 to 10 people, and the picturesque Bay View Camping Field. Rooms are described as clean, practical, and comfortable, with fresh bedding and towels provided. En-suite rooms feature tea and coffee making facilities with a kettle, and family-filtered Wi-Fi is accessible in all guest rooms and the games lounge. Top amenities include a 60-seat dining room, a sauna, two spacious lounges, laundry facilities, cycle storage, and extensive outdoor areas for recreation, along with a continental breakfast included in the stay. For active guests, on-site activities such as bushcraft, archery, and low-velocity paintball are available, with off-site adventures like kayaking and coasteering also arrangeable.
JAAC is an excellent choice for a wide range of visitors, offering flexible arrangements that cater to individuals, families, and groups of all ages. It is particularly well-suited for school trips, youth organizations, educational groups, and sports teams seeking budget-friendly accommodation and activity-focused holidays. While it is a practical and comfortable base, guests should expect hostel-style accommodation rather than luxury hotel amenities. The centre's comprehensive facilities and activity offerings make it a perfect hub for those looking for an engaging and supportive stay in Jersey.

Also loved the games room and wifi room; had a very homely feel :)
Definitely recommend staying here!
The hostel was excellent and suited our requirements perfectly.
The staff were fantastic- so friendly and helpful. The accommodation was great.
I have been taking groups on these sort of tours for many years and can highly recommend JAAC.
Special mention - the food was brilliant. They catered for our diverse dietary requirements brilliantly. We took 47 teenagers (who can be notoriously difficult to impress). They absolutely loved the food. Thanks!
A lovely, quiet site and great location for Gorey Harbour.
