“The excellent location to the beach and the peaceful atmosphere.”

“An excellent location when you're able to get a room in the beach house.”

“Location could not have been more perfect. Absolutely loved this place”

“I love how close Backpacker's is to beaches, the grocery store and the bus. The rooms are clean. The cabin common areas are cleaned daily. Everyone who works at Backpacker's is so friendly and helpful!”

“The vibe. Local staff did a good job keeping out the bad apples.”

“It was so close to our family in Haleiwa! Our room looked out on the ocean! Not all of them do, but it’s so close to the beach any spot is great! The staff were helpful.”

“The distance to the ocean. The people. The atmosphere”

“Location! Location! Location! The studios are right next to the beach. It was ice waking up to the sound of the waves every morning. The staff were pleasant and accommodating. They made our stay more enjoyable.”

“Economical shared amenities with private spaces that allow you to have your own quiet quarters. Three Tables beach is directly across the street and it's lovely. Sharks Cove and Waimea Bay are a few short minutes away by foot (even quicker by car). There's a Foodland less than a city block away that you can walk to purchases groceries (the poke selection is incredible as well!). The property is peaceful with wonderful gardens and tropical fruits growing everywhere. And everyone I met that was staying on the property were really genuinely nice and welcoming. It was a fun and inexpensive away to meet other travelers while staying on the laid-back North Shore of Oahu.”

“this was my 3rd visit in 3 year’s. The location is optimal to the main north shore beaches, access to public transportation, and it’s close to food trucks & supermarket.”
