I had a great time at Elmar, if you’re looking for a chill vibe but still social - this is the place. The two girls and the guy who work there that I met were super nice, and they arranged activities like yoga, meditation, etc. Very clean and spacious dorms. You also get a towel and laundry for free, which is really appreciated as a backpacker! Breakfast nice and extra plus for having Oatly! :) I can highly recommend this place!

Amazing hostel, i was in Bacalar 3 times and had the chance to sleep in three different rooms! They were all great and very comfortable. I loved the decor. The staff is super kind and helpful, and the cute dog Brownie is the newest. Would go back any time

Beds were comfy, and the room is well-equipped for humid, hot nights. It was overall clean. The common areas are simple but good enough to chill. The host and volunteers were very friendly, too!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

Nice hostel with a great location, good vibe, very friendly and helpful staff. Especially Humberto went the extra mile and printed out some needed papers outside the hostel. Excellent service.

Very nice social hostel. Lots of activities. I booked one night to make friends and after I stayed at a cheaper place but you can still walk into the hostel and participate with activities, as its also opened for restaurant or party guests. Also great location.

The hostel is well taken care of, great location, clean, social activities. Just on the water, nice place to chill. Big lockers, friendly helpful staff, felt really safe also. Nice restaurant but a bit overpriced.
