Los Amigos Hostel

First a little bit about Flores Island! The picturesque island of Flores is the capital city of the most northern department of Guatemala:the jungly Petén.

The colonial island is located in the beautiful Lake Petén Itza.For many tourists, the main reason to visit Flores is its proximity to Tikal, the most famous Mayan ruins in Guatemala, which are just a one hour drive away.

Nowadays Flores is a true backpacker hotspot. How could it not be? A lake that’s always the perfect temperature, lush jungle all around and the most beautiful sunsets ever.

All in all, Flores is definitely one of the most tranquilo and safe places in Guatemala

We are very proud of our diverse team, made up of young and older people, all of them 100% local. The Los Amigos staff counts approximate 50 beautiful souls that you will be working closely with. Talking about a full cultural immersion! We are a very friendly family ! the jokes and nick names will not miss it ! you will invite to joing to parties and visit to different places around and for sure you will improve your spanish, You will be one of us !

This was my first volunteering experience, and it was amazing! I really enjoyed my time in Flores and the activities the Hostel organized.
Working hours were respected and tasks were easy.
As a vegetarian, i think meals should improve but most of the time they were okey and the manager was receptive when i discussed it with him.

I highly recommend volunteering in Los Amigos.

A really great volunteering!!

Diego and Ricardo’s positions are substantial. There was true care, kindness and awareness with volunteers.

Everything happened as pre-agreed and even better! We received some invitations from the Hostel to do some nice activities!

Working hours and tasks are fine and respected.

It’s really important to create a good environment among volunteers cause you coexist and co-work all together.

Breakfasts are great while dinners can improve a bit.

I would highly recommend it!!!

honestly, i dont even know where to begin with this😅 before coming to flores I thought I would pretty much have a chill month on a small island, but boy was i wrong (in a good way)! diego, the host, made sure we explored as much of surrounding area as possible, which I really appreciate. the owners were super sweet too, treating their volunteers and workers like a family! and everyone else? wow, I felt like I literally made a second family here. I cannot even begin describing how fast this month has passed and I would so love to relive this experience once more!

My role as a volunteer at Los Amigos included teaching one hour of yoga in the morning, and showing guests around the hostel and to their dorm for a few hours in the evening. Morning yoga classes were held in a tropical paradise, a short boat ride across the lake. The evening shift was fun, easy and straightforward and it allowed me to meet so many travelers.
The entire team at Los Amigos was welcoming, friendly and helpful. Flores was a magical place, I cannot wait to return someday!

Hotel los amigos es un excelente lugar para mejorar tu inglés, aprender a hacer tragos y sociabilizar con gente local. Realmente mi experiencia aquí a sido muy buena, con rica comida y buen ambiente. Estoy muy agradecida por la oportunidad de ser parte de este lindo proyecto de vida! Si pueden venir a flores no lo piensen dos veces!! Pero si vienen que su ayuda sea real y comprometida con este lugar.
