You're here for the social scene not the ZZZs. Catering to a lively young crowd (over 35s are banned from staying here), Slumber Party's pod-like, purple-washed, air-con dorms are straightforward, compact and contemporary. There are four-bed through to 12-bed dorms, all with shared bathrooms. Booze cruises, beer pong, nightly bar crawls, island trips, cultural tours – they do it all.
There's a daily shuttle to the beach. The hostel is 2.5km northeast of central Ao Nang, where there's another branch just back from the beach.
