Very nice spacious room. Awesome shower, hammock in the room which was cool for hanging out! Complementary coffee and a good location. What more does one need? That’s right, nothing ;)

The staff was ridiculously friendly and inclusive. It's clear the place has a culture and it was really nice to be welcomed by them. A complimentary drink on arrival, informative check in, fun activities during the stay, and lovely location!

This hotel was so, so nice! Staff was super nice and helpful, the atmosphere was great and we had a great time. Also, very nice location! Short walk to the center and just a few meters to the lagoon. Breakfast was simple but good! We stayed in a private room that was very comfortable and I always appreciate having a private bathroom. It was three of us but there is a lot of space so we didn't feel crammed.

I highly recommend this place. The property is well located in Bacalar, close to a cute parc with many restaurants and to the laguna’s public pier. The shared kitchen and bathroom are really clean and well-furnished. What we liked the most about this place is the kindness of the staff! They are dedicated to provide the best experience for their guests - always there to answer any questions and help with activities booking.

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!

All hostels in Bacalar

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.
