About

Your dream hostel on the beautiful island of Flores and the perfect base for visiting the majestic ruins of Tikal!

Los Amigos hostel was founded in 2004 as an artistic fusion of the many influences of our travels with the most authentic aspects of our beloved Guatemala.

Visiting la isla you can't miss a visit to our famous restaurant, 'the Secret Garden of Flores'. Enjoy a culinary journey in our magical lush gardens. Both our hostel and the restaurant are listed as #1 on Tripadvisor!

Stay the night in one of our artistic rooms. Varying from the classic dorm (with steaming hot showers) to fancy dorms with AC, to luxurious and unique private rooms with AC and private bathroom. Enjoy fast internet in your room and all the communal areas, perfect for digital nomads!

Relax in one of the many hammocks in our lush jungle garden and enjoy the company of hummingbirds, geckos, and even turtles, just to name a few.

Feeling hungry? We serve a delicious mix of local and global cuisine with many healthy vegetarian and vegan options. We´re famous for our huge portions and fresh, natural taste. Prefer cooking for yourself? Enjoy the new, fully equipped communal kitchen.

At Los Amigos every hour is Happy Hour. The bar has a great selection of beers, colorful cocktails and famous local drinks. At night the party continues upstairs in the world famous Los Amigos Night Lounge. A soundproofed space where you can connect with fellow travelers and locals alike, while the people that need to get up early can enjoy a good nights sleep.

Plan your tour to Tikal at our hassle-free in-house travel agency. We also offer tours to many other great attractions in Petén and tickets for buses to every destination you can imagine. All with 24/7 assistance guaranteed.

Sore shoulders from carrying that backpack around? We offer a variety of massages, some relaxing and some therapeutic, as well as various beauty treatments and a herbal steam bath!

Having random encounters with other backpackers is what always made our own travels so magical, so that is why we built Los Amigos to be more than just another stop at this built with love, by backpackers for backpackers.

We're truly excited to treat you to an unforgettable adventure in Petén. And remember: Los Amigos is much more than just another place to stay… It's your place to BE! So come by and experience the mysteries of these Mayan lands with us!

Flores is t big so hard to be badly located. Hostel is about two minutes from the end of the causeway. Very secure. 24/7 reception. Nice bar and restaurant. Separate area for playing pool or chilling. And a soundproofed nightclub area for those who want to party late. But it means hostel is quiet and calm for those who don’t. I was in a private room and it was very nice

We stayed in a private room and there was no window and the lights are too dim so it felt a little dingy. also having just one fan was difficult. We also didn’t really get the vibes of the hostel it was tricky to know where the social areas were and what to join in on.
