Everything! Sasha makes a difference in there! She organises all the fun activities to the guest. I personally recommend "the rápidos ", a beautiful way to chill floating down the quiet river. She also gave us recommendations about places to have lunch and fun ") Looove your vibe Sasha! 🫶 Everyday there's something different going on! The hostel is just 2 minutes far from the lagoon ...

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!

Elmar Hostel is THE place to stay in Bacalar ! Everything was just perfect, you get free breakfast, free bikes, free kayak, free paddle boards and FREE LAUNDRY ! The aircon in the dorms works perfectly, everything is new, curtains for privacy, body soap and shampoo in the showers, the kitchen is well equipped. The vibe is so chill, and the people working there were a huge bonus to my stay. Hann, Guss and Giovanni were just adorable, and will go out of their way to help you out and make you feel at home. And the hostel is just 5 minutes walk from a free pier to the lagoon. Honestly the best hostel I stayed in my 10 years of travel !

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 ;)

All hostels in Chetumal

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.

Friendly reception and staff, allowing storage of backpacks if arriving early. A proper backpacker place with good vibe, interesting people and good advice available for forward transport. Good internet and quiet at night. Incredibly cheap beer with a nice rooftop to enjoy it on. Good location. Definitely return on way back.
