Update
After genymotion update to 2.2 you can use 10.0.3.2, ref
Another approach
To access your localhost through Genymotion is using your PC IP address. to get your IP address go to:
start -> cmd -> ipconfig
then search for IPv4, copy the IP and paste it in your URL. It should looks like the following:
String YourURL = "http://192.168.0.106:8888/your_script_location.php";
Hope this works too for you, give me a feedback.
P.S: if it didn't work, turn off the firewall and any anti-virus application you have in your PC.

The IP returned by ipconfig dit not work for me. However 10.0.3.2 worked for me even though the IP address in the Wifi setting is 10.0.3.15.
Genymotion 2.2.0
Solution 4 - Android
it works for me by using http://192.168.56.1:8080

- for
(mac and linux)
ifconfig vboxnet0 - windows command
ipconfig vboxnet0
and make sure the port is collect.

Intro:
>Long story short, Genymotion is running on Virtualbox, and the default network configuration is “Host-Only.” This method essentially emulates a physical network that is shared by your Genymotion VM (the emulator) and your host machine. The name of the network is vboxnet0, and if you run “ifconfig vboxnet0” (or “ipconfig vboxnet0” if running Windows) on your host machine, you should receive the IP address of your host on the vboxnet0 network. The default IP is most likely 192.168.56.1.
Solution:
>This is the IP address to use when accessing your host machine from the Genymotion emulator. For my Rails app, this meant calling “192.168.56.1:3000” instead of “10.0.2.2:3000.”

Genymotion! It works for me using IP 10.0.3.2 but depends on your localhost port. Apache it will be just IP and Tomcat with default port 8080. Here I take screenshots.

When i used genymotion in my ubuntu
i used the ip address of the virtual machine as local host and it worked .
in virtual box goto file > preferences > network > select host only network and select adapter tab copy the ipv4 address and use it instead of localhost ...

Check your Internet Connection on PC first, then Turn on Wifi in your Genymotion Emulator Device
After goto Cmd by Pressing ctrl+r then type Cmd and hit enter you will see an command line window
type ipconfig and hit enter...
here you can see your ipv4 address type it in your Genymotion Emulator Device's Browser now you can connect to your local webserver....

In my case 10.0.3.2 didn't work. I changed to virtual box host-only network : 192.168.128.2 it works. You have to try other virtualbox adapters IP if it doesn't work with 192.168.56.1. My environment is behind a corporate proxy and I was running an embedded undertow server. Hope it helps.
