About
Hola y bienvenidos to Mandalas - your next travel stop in one of Lake Atitlan’s most idyllic destinations🌞
If you’re looking for somewhere to relax, unwind, and meet like-minded travellers from around the world, Mandalas is your spot. With the best rooftop views in town overlooking the lake, we’re the perfect place to chill after a day of hiking, swimming, or wandering the colorful streets of San Pedro🌻
Located just a five minute walk from the heart of town, our hostel offers easy access to all the best bars, restaurants, cafes, and shops - as well as the public pier where you can catch a lancha to explore the rest of the Lake Atitlan. We’re not a party hostel, but we’re right next to the action if you’re in the mood for a night out!🎉
We offer a range of accommodations, including mixed dorms, female-only dorms, and private rooms (with and without en-suites). Each dorm bed is fitted with a personal reading light, power outlet, and security locker for your comfort and peace of mind🔐
Our fully equipped kitchen is open for all guests to use - complete with free coffee, tea, sugar, and basic kitchen supplies such as pasta and rice for you to enjoy, as well as purified drinking water. Whether you’re travelling long-term or just craving a home-cooked meal, you’ll feel right at home here!✨
Our rooftop terrace is a traveller favourite - decked out with cushions, hammocks, and unbeatable lake views, it’s the ideal spot to unwind, connect, or sip a cold beer from our fully-stocked drinks fridge🍹
If you’re in need of some sun, our garden is perfect place to sit and sunbathe or relax round the fire pit with a drink in the evening. You’ll also find gym equipment on-site if you want to get a workout in while you’re on the road💪
