We loved our stay at dreamboat! The staff were super welcoming (shoutout to Chris and Laura) and the hostel had a great vibe. They have a rooftop pool and a pool party on Saturday! They have good food at the hostel. Also at 10pm they take everyone who wants to keep partying to a nearby bar so that if you want to sleep, it’s very quiet.

Nice view from the rooftop, I loved there was a kitchen. Bathrooms are definitely very interesting, staff is so kind and helpful, the lockers could be bigger, I couldn’t fit all my valuables there.

The view is perfect on the upper levels. The terrace has an amazing view. It's at the end of the main street but only a short walk to the centre. Easy to escape the noise when needed.

+ The location was beautiful! The cabins are surrounded by nature, saw avocados hanging from the trees and squirrels hopping around. + No spiders or scorpios in the accomodation + Super clean and cabin has great smell of wood + Kept in contact with the manager all time, they answered all of my questions, provided with clear instructions how to reach the house. + The manager was friendly and let me do late check out! + The water in the shower was great, no issues adjusting the temperature. + Loved the style of the cabin!

Yes this property is a bit difficult when you arrive to San Pedro, but this is one of the best hostels I’ve stayed at. Staff are so kind, happy to advise on anything, the whole place was extremely clean during my 4 day stay. Kitchen is very well equipped, they even have a free food section with oats, tea, coffee, honey, pasta, rice, salt and sugar. Wi-Fi works very well and rooftop hangout area is so lovely. The music from Mr Mullets goes on to 11pm but this wasn’t a problem for me, and I couldn’t really hear it from my room anyway.

This property is absolutely gorgeous - wow! Location is perfect right on the water and honestly you could just chill by the pool for a few days. Lovely way to experience San Pedro and Lake Atitlan. Room was large and kept clean. Food we tried was lovely.

All hostels in Panajachel

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.

It's probably one of the best hostels I have stayed in. Beds are comfy with full curtains and lockers to store your bags in before checkin or after checkout. And possibly the best staff that honestly make you feel welcome from the very moment you enter.

Recommend this hostel without any hesitation. It's social, clean, owners are super friendly and helpful, the beds are confortable and have curtains. There are chillout areas on the balcony and a super nice rooftop terrace. The location is super central and you have plenty of shopping and eating facilities for any budget close.
