Situated in Honolulu and within 600 metres of Waikiki Beach, ALOH Seaside Women's Hostel has a shared lounge, non-smoking rooms, and free WiFi. Popular points of interest nearby include Fort DeRussy Park, Saint Augustine by-the-Sea and Hawaii Convention Center. Hale Koa Luau is 1.4 km away and Kapiolani Park is 2.3 km from the hostel. Best hostel I've ever been to! Being all women, the environment is relaxed, safe, and very friendly. The WhatsApp group and social events (combined with coed sister hostels) made it so easy to make friends! Definitely stay here if you are considering it. Spacious and clean rooms as well. Excellent common area with hammocks, tables, kitchen, outdoor shower, etc. Towels and beach gear available to borrow for free.

We are located just a few minutes walk away from Waikiki Beach on the south shore of Oahu, Hawaii. We are close to Diamond Head Crater, Waikiki surf breaks, and loads of bars, restaurants, and nightlife.

We also offer complimentary WiFi, tea and coffee, Linens, Clothing irons, Blow dryers, Advice on local tours, and ensuite lockers in each dorm room. Such a great hostel which fabulous staff who engage with guests during planned activities. I did rock painting one night and they had karaoke another, but I didn't join in. There is beach and sports equipment that guests can borrow for FREE! I took an umbrella and mat to Hanauma Bay for the day. Body boards are a little banged up and some have no wrist straps but still, they are not charging rental prices. Rooms with kitchens are great, as it helped to keep food costs down, because prices are super expensive (even a loaf of bread cost me over $10AUD)! The location is only a block back from the beach, so it's such a good location. And only one block back from bus stops to and from the airport or around the island. I definitely will stay here again, and I would highly recommend it to others.
