I just did not want to leave:-) so I extended my stay for a few more nights. It feels very relaxing (as Montezuma itself), the common area is big enough for everyone to find a perfect place to chill (hammocks, terrace, garden, ...) with fantastic views and is ideal for meeting other guests. It is almost on the beach and within a 10 minut walking distance to the downtown (a nice soda is just 100m actually). A cleaning lady comes daily. Naty who runs the hostel is very friendly and helps you to organise trips cheaply (or for free). I have really enjoyed my stay there ans can recommend it-the vibe was excellent.

Location is great - little green paradise, lots of nature. Really quiet as well. 1min walking from playa del carmen and shops/restaurants. Open kitchen is the best All facilities were clean and comfy. And top of it : really nice vibe due to the volunteers I would come back.

Great location! Just 1 min walk to an amazing beach with incredible Sunsets. The hotelarea itself has a nice pool, a cute bar and is really comfy to take some breaks and just relax and read a book or chat. They offer activities like pizza in the evening, make some music and spread good mood in the early evenings, but also have it quite and calm early enough to sleep well and get calm rest. The rooms are spacious and beds are comfy. I would say It’s a Surfers paradise, but even if you don’t surf (I don’t surf) it’s a place to feel relaxed and cosy with enough space and places to decide if you want to join the bar crowd or chill a bit aside. There is always some people around at the bar or reception that will help you out with any questions. Thanks for some Nice relaxed days :)

The pods were really really comfortable to sleep in, with a locker you can keep your things safe in. The kitchen was the best hostel kitchen we had during our trip. Quite big and very organized. Overall it’s a very social hostel and we met amazing people during both our stays. The staff is very welcoming and helpful.

All hostels in Montezuma

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.

Helpful staff (they helped us book a shuttle to Playa Del Coco), clean facilities, beautiful patio/outdoor areas to hang out, quiet, great location, coffee available in the morning, lots of lines to hang wet towels, clothes and swim suits. Overall a nice spot for the budget traveler.

The hostel is a real old style hostel, don’t expect to come to a 4 star hotel for the price you’re paying. We had a basic simple private room with a shared bathroom, from the room you can hear everything but again it’s a hostel, that’s okay. The structure it’s very tico style. The community inside was really friendly and nice. If you’re looking for a place on a budget in Montezuma and at 1 minute from the center, this is the place to come!
