just around the corner from El Paredon mangroves!

We understand that most of the time, budgeting is key while traveling. We also understand the different dietary restrictions that some travelers might have. So for USD 1.25/day (10 quetzales) you can have full access to our kitchen to cook your favorite meals. This small fee helps us to keep the kitchen running for you and other guests to come!

Whether it's surfing, boogie boarding at the beach or kayaking in the mangroves, our hostel can provide you with everything you need. Please ask at reception for pricing and availability!

We are NOT a party hostel, however, you can access the party scene by a 10 min walk and come back to rest right after!

Desde el inicio nos atendieron muy bien, el personal es súper amable y atento. La ubicación es excelente: está cerca de los restaurantes, pero al mismo tiempo es un lugar donde puedes disfrutar de la calma y el silencio si eso es lo que buscas. Las camas son bastante cómodas y los baños están en muy buen estado. Además, cuentan con una piscina que puedes disfrutar y un ambiente social muy agradable, ideal para conocer nuevas personas.

Great place, staff is super friendly and fun to hangout with. Very chill vibe which was great for work, wifi was good enough for work (but not high speed) and was able to park in front of the place. Kitchen was great too. Only downside was there are no lockers

This hostel definitely deserves one a review. 10 out of 10 for me. My experience here was amazing from the hostel itself to the amazing people running the place. Further away from the party hostels, this location is perfect for a more quiet stay if you enjoy going out to party and coming back to a chill atmosphere. While I was there the hostel set up spike ball and sunset evenings on the beach! The dorms and bathrooms were clean and felt safe, and the owner is the chillest helpful guy there!
