Mapache Hostel

Mapache Hostel feels like being at home. We take you in and make you part of the family. We are a small but growing business so you get the opportunity to suggest changes and be part of the development of the hostel. We are determined to give the best costumer services on the island so we take training very serious. You are sure to learn new things during your time with us while having the best time. So far most of our volunteers have extended their stay or even came back to work again a second time.

I am Swiss, a passionate traveller myself and have been in Mexico since 2016. After living here for many years I now share my time between Mexico and Switzerland. The hostel has a manager and two cleaning workers that are fixed staff. Our paid receptionists are usually Mexican travellers who stay for 3 months or more. We further have 3-4 volunteers living on the premises in tents. It is a very familiar atmosphere where everyone is treated equally and feels at home.

Mi experiencia en el Mapache Hostel fue increible. Conecté con muchos huespedes alrededor del mundo mientras disfrutaba de la tranquilidad y naturaleza de la isla. El equipo que formamos con la resta del staff fue el mejor y lo recordaré para siempre. Gaia, la gerente, respeta los turnos laborales acordados y se encarga de que todos los huéspedes estemos cómodos y a gusto. Recomiendo mucho la experiencia!

Fue realmente increíble mí estancia, aprendí, reí, disfruté, conocí, crecí y conecté con maravillosas personas en el proceso.
Escuché y fui parte de historias que solo pueden suceder cuando decides tomar la decisión de vivir en una isla.
