I only spend two nights at this hostel, but it was great. The common area is super cool, and perfect to meet new people, which is was super handy since I was solo traveling. The area of the hostel is great, and I LOVED the pancakes !! Would definitely book again.

This is almost the best hostel in the world. For me it had everything and the pancake breakfast was a bonus. Real good vibes and friendly place. I wish the beds had privacy curtains that’s all that is missing in my opinion. Still excellent for the price and location.

The price was good for the area. The pancake breakfast and coffee was great. The staff were great. The location is close to lots of things to do. In the evenings the staff but a fun event for everyone to join and meet. The mattress was comfortable. But the bed frames were squeaky as well as the main door to the dorm and no lockers large enough for luggage. But overall a good place to visit Waikiki on a budget.

There’s not enough word to explain the amazing environment and energy form the staff and the amenities. A lot of this to do and you meet great people activities on site, breakfast at 8am (pancakes), gym, surfboards are available to everyone. Also, shades, chairs, noddles, all the stuff that you might need for the beach they provided. Is the best option to save money so you won’t have to rented at the beach (Waikīkī) is by far the best. I would come back here ASAP love it. Special thanks to Ryan. Bars and karaoke are like 13 min walk.

CONVENIENT!! Took the bus from the airport, unpacked on my bunk, grabbed Teddy's Bigger Burger (practically right next door), and crossed the street to the beach in time for sunset! The pancakes in the morning are amazing. The group activities are great.
Common area so comfortable and pancakes are delicious.
Beautiful sunset across the street

Had an unforgettable stay at Waikiki Beachside Hostel. I met so many amazing people here that I honestly never would have met if I stayed somewhere else. The free pancakes every morning were awesome, the outdoor lounge area was the perfect place to hang out, and the rooms were always clean. I also loved all the beach gear you could rent. What really made this trip special were the people. I ended up hanging out with 6 different people in two groups of 3 for almost 2 weeks. We did drives to the North Shore, fishing trips, watched sunsets with pizza on the beach, and made memories I’ll never forget. This hostel turned a vacation into a real experience. The staff were beyond friendly and helpful and always made me feel safe, welcome, and relaxed during my stay. You can tell they genuinely care about the people staying there. I already can’t wait to come back.
