    That I couldn't stay longer

    I felt very welcome by everyone, even the guests. We all bonded through our passion for traveling. Cass, Jack, and Diego were amazing hosts. I really enjoyed getting to know them and sharing experiences, mates, and sunsets with them. If I ever come back to Puerto, I'll definitely stay there again

    Absolutely loved the vibe. It’s super cute and small and it felt like coming home. I had a great time with the people staying there and loved the volunteer Cass!! The kitchen is fully equipped and always clean, super nice to cook there. Also they’ve free coffee every morning.

    The location is great, but being between la punta and the town centre, there aren't any ATMs nearby so you do need to catch a collectivo (only a few minutes) into town or walk to La Punta to withdraw cash. That's honestly the only negative.

    A nice quiet place about halfway between La punta and the centre of Puerto Escondidio, only a short walk from Mercado Zicatela. The owner and the other guests were all great and it really felt more like a home than any other hostel I've stayed at. The aircon in the rooms is pretty good too.

    Great Hostel, Diego is a friendly host who is always around to help and chill. This hostel feels more like a home if you are wanting something a bit more lowkey. Was meant to stay for a week and ended up staying for 2! Very good deal for what you are getting, an uncrowded and comfy place to live. Thanks Diego

    Although I did travel solo, it would be nice to have some social activities with the other guests!

    I thoroughly enjoyed stay at Mi Puerto Beach Hostel! I actually have stayed twice and would go back again! It is perfectly in the middle of La Punta and Zicatela, where you can easily walk to either sides. The rooms are great with air con, access to a fully equipped kitchen, and very comfortable lounging areas. There are a few rooms so you get to know the others staying, but can also have some alone time while traveling if needed. The volunteers are very friendly and Diego, the owner, is great to chat with, too! Definitely recommend!

    This hostel is fantastic for solo travellers! I had been travelling Mexico for 3 months and this was the first place I immediately made friends with everyone staying there. The owner created a very welcoming atmosphere and organised group dinners as well as just chilling out with us in the evening. This made it very easy to sit down and get to know everyone. I really appreciated it as I found the other hostels lacked this atmosphere. The place was also very clean and comfortable.

    Nothing.

    I ended up staying for many more days than originally planned: comfy beds, clean bathrooms, fully equipped kitchen, always few, but nice people to chat around, close to Zicatela beach and the lovely Mercado with cafés and restaurants and at night you can go out and come back safe and sound walking home from the clubs. Perfect place for solo travelers to get to know people. Was lucky to enjoy both very tasty and sociable Sushi and BBQ night, even for a vegetarian like me 😉 Diego (the owner) really wants you to have a great time and I felt very much at home. There is a lovely yoga place right around the corner as well. Had a great time! Thank you very much 😊

    The hostel is new and because of that some things are still missing. Some ideas: lamps next to the bed, lockers, curtains for some privacy in case you want to read and not disturb others.

    Everything is new and very well made. Nice, friendly, relaxed atmosphere. Very clean.

    I tried 3 hostels in Puerto and this is undoubtedly the finest I've experienced! Diego, the host, is truly exceptional, creating an atmosphere that feels like a home away from home. The WiFi connection is notably robust, making it an ideal spot for those needing to work remotely. Perfectly situated, it's a mere 10-minute stroll from the breathtaking sunsets at La Punta and equally close to the vibrant nightlife in Zicatela. Despite its proximity to these attractions, the hostel maintains a tranquil and serene environment, perfect for relaxation. Its location, just 3 minutes from the beach, adds to its charm and convenience. I highly recommend this hostel for anyone visiting Puerto. The cleanliness of the facilities and bathrooms is impressive, and the kitchen is wonderfully equipped, catering to all your culinary needs. This place is a true gem for travelers seeking comfort, convenience, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere.

    That end of the beach is expensive, but Mi Puerto is very reasonably priced. Best in the area.

    Diego, from Brazil, speaks excellent Spanish and English, and is a fountain of useful information. He throws parties and BBQ for his guests, and is a chef in his own right. The hostel is casual and comfortable, and you just walk down Cedro St. a hundred meters to the beach. La Punta is a 5 minute walk. Mercado Zicoleta has restaurants overlooking the sea, lots of fruits, vegetables and meat - but the vegan restaurants are at the opposite end of this well-ventilated market, from the butcher shops. The "Collectivo" runs you into town in about 5 minutes, for twelve pesos: big supermarket, bus stations, organic food in Rinconada. So the location is splendid and the atmosphere easygoing. Great price!

Very well located between La Punta and Zicatela, 1 minute from the beach, with a nice communale kitchen and good AC in the 6 beds room. Highly recommended!

    Really nice stay here! At first, a little hesitant to book here, because the place just opened up. But so happy I did, the beach is really near (just at the end of the street) and it’s walking distance from both la Punta and Zicatela. It’s still super clean and Diego does everything to accommodate you! Also very happy with the A/C in the rooms and gooooood and reliable internet (finally!)

    The power was out for more than 12 hours on my last day from around 7pm. I couldn’t use the wifi or charge my phone before my following trip…plus the AC was not working and it was terribly hot in the room. Also, there was supposed to be free coffee every morning and they run out of it and didn’t have any during my 4-day stay.

    Really small and familiar, the vibes were great and the staff was really friendly! 3min walk to playa zicatela and 10min to mercado de zicatela with many places to eat!
