Hoi An - Hoi An Hostel

Our Hoi An Hostel is located between the historical unesco town of Hoi An and some of Vietnam's most incredible beaches. The hostel is equipped with a stunning pool, countless open and airy common spaces, a deck area overlooking lush rice paddies, and a large alfresco style bar and restaurant. Our travel desk in Hoi An offers a huge range of tours and experiences in the surrounding area and can help plan any onward travel, both North and South, from the midpoint of the country.

Formerly known as Fai-fo or Faifoo, this well preserved city was noted in 1999 as a UNESCO World heritage site and recently named the best city in the world by Travel + Leisure magazine. The city was described as a charming city with ancient roots, distinct architecture, a contagious energy, and arguably one of the best street food scenes on the planet. You can spend days wandering the narrow alleys of the ancient town or relax on the beach or by the pool with a cocktail in hand. However, there are some quite notable activities you should definitely consider during your time here.

The most popular activity is to get on a bicycle and explore the ancient town, learn about the history and the cultures that make Hoi An what it is today. At the Eastern end of the town you’ll find the central market, arrive early to witness all the exciting actions that happen at this market during its primed period. If you are lucky enough to visit Hoi An during its rice season, you will find yourself surrounded by lush green/golden rice paddies. Make your way through the many small roads cutting through the rice paddies; you might even get to play with some water buffalos, one of the many symbols of Vietnam.

Take time to visit one of the nicer beaches in Hoi An, An Bang beach. This is where you’ll likely be getting your tan on. There are many restaurants, bars and beach clubs right on the beach. Nestled between An Bang and Cua Dai beach, Kahuna’s beach club is a hidden gem, if you are looking for a laid back day lounging by the beach or hanging out by the pool, come join us at Kahuna's Hoi An beach club for delicious food, a wide variety of refreshing drinks and cocktails and plenty of fun in the sun. We’ve got paddleboards, beach lounges, a crystal clear pool, beach party and so much more. Hoi An is famous for numerous tailor shops offering high quality fabrics at very reasonable prices. Whether it’s a suit, dress or leather shoes and belts, Hoi An tailors can replicate the latest fashions.
