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 !

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.

Overall, my experience at Los Amigos was an amazing experience. I met a lot of wonderful people inside and outside of working my shifts and I loved the place I was able to teach at and meet people inside the hostel as well. The only issue that I ran into was when I arrived at the hostel. I had to stay in the volunteer house which I was told when I got there it changed and the place did not seem livable to stay. Because of this I did have to find another place to stay on my own. However, I know that they were doing their best to fix the situation and I understand changes happen.

Mi experiencia en el hostal fue muy buena, estuve un mes en la isla de Flores y disfruté de los beneficios del hostal.

Puntos positivos:
- Tienes acceso a diferentes actividades como catamaran, kayaks, torneos de futbolín, beer pong, billar, karaoke.
- Excelente desayuno.
- Dos días de descanso.

Por mejorar:
- Ten en cuenta y habla sobre tus horarios, a veces trabajas más de lo que dicen en WP.
-Si buscas espacios abiertos, esté no será tu destino.
- La casa de voluntarios (cocina/baño)

Seguro tendrás una gran experiencia y vas a compartir con otros voluntarios!
Es mi opinión más honesta.

My time in Los Amigos was a great experience. I learnt so much about Guatemala and its people, saw some of the best sunsets and I am leaving with incredible memories. If you like to party and have fun, this is the place for you. The island isn't big so there aren't a lot of things to explore nature wise, but it's a very relaxing place. The work in itself is very easy, the only issue I had was with the bar manager who was a terrible communicator and never had me do the fun stuff even when I asked. Everybody else was great, I had the best time and definitely felt at home!!
