This is the very first hostel I have stayed at and to be honest I was very skeptical at choosing one for my Miami vacation. I gave it a chance and so here's my review. This was one of the best vacations I have ever had and I attribute this 100% to the hostel itself. No matter what time of... More

I was a bit scared to go to a hostel, because I was doubtful about the cleanliness and security.. But it was my best experience EVER! I spent the best time of my life there, and I believe it wouldn't have been the same in a different hostel/hotel. Everything was clean and the housemaid is very friendly, she passes in... More

Just checked out from there. I stayed at the hostel for 2 nights, one of them is New Year night. The price per night was 40$ excluding taxes. They also charge you extra 10$ just in case but give it back when you check out. The hostel got us tickets to Nikki beach club fro 70$ when the offcial price... More

South Beach is beautiful and luxurious but so are the hotel prices! Therefore, my friend and I decided on a hostel. The first night the air conditioning wasn't working and it was unbearably hot in the Miami heat. The problem was fixed the next day. Also, our room door did not lock. We informed them but that was never taken... More

This place sounded great on the website and from reviews we had read. I had traveled many times all over the world and stayed at numerous hostels...this way by far the worst ever. There is no shuttle service unlike what other people are saying. It's actually not even called 'Ohana' anymore which we found out when we got there. We... More

This review is for the Ohana Hostel at 810 Alton Rd., Miami Beach. I spent 10 nights there with a friend and we were so glad we ended up choosing this hostel! It was by far the nicest hostel I've been to and absolutely the best value as well. The location was perfect - absolutely no need for a car!... More

I decided to go on a trip to Miami for a few days. As a student with a tight budget it was clear that I wanted to stay at a hostel. I have stayed at many hostels worldwide and I picked the Ohana because of the good reviews I saw online. It was the worst hostel I have ever stayed... More

We made some good and bad experiences at the Ohana Hostel. The location is good on Miami Beach, its next to public transportation, and a liquor store. They offer free bikes up to 4 hours per day, a pool table, internet and computers, a hot tub and a few other advantages which make your stay comfortable. However, they are not... More
