Really nice place to rest and reset. The colors are beautiful and there are a lot of activities to do around. The hostel is right next to the lagoon, so you enjoy a morning coffee and breakfast with the lights of the sunrise just before take a swimm where you have feet almost everywhere !

I booked a 3 day solo trip for my birthday here. I’ve been to Bacalar like 6 times, and this one was my favorite. I loved the hostel, it’s very clean, spacious and has the best vibe. Everyone from the staff and volunteers are the kindest. I did ALL of the activities they have, partied, swam, chilled by the lagoon and did a sailboat ride, it was one of my best experiences ever! I would definitely recommend booking this place, specially if: 1. You are solo traveling 2. You want to meet new people and make friends 3. You want a beautiful place to stay with great location and by the lagoon 100/10 experience. Thank you Yak team, for sharing with me my 26th birthday ✨
