Conveniently established in the animated city center of San Miguel, Hostel Auikyani is located at only one block away from the island ferry pier. The hostel provides shared rooms for 4 or 6 people but also private bedrooms for double occupancy with 24 hours air conditioning system, free hi-speed Wi-Fi and power plugs for each bed (shared bathrooms).

Awesome little hostel with lovely and helpful owners. It's a great place to rest after busy days of diving, snorkeling and exploring the island. I really enjoyed my stay in Auikyani and wish I could have stayed longer!

Set in Cozumel and with Faro Celarain reachable within 34 km, Hostel Tropico 20º offers concierge services, allergy-free rooms, a shared lounge, free WiFi and a terrace. The accommodation provides a shared kitchen, and organising tours for guests.

I liked that it was located quite close to the ferry terminal and it was sea facing. I liked the concept of the dormitory area. I had a lower bunk with a double bed and sufficient place to store my backpack. Also the screen provided good privacy and it had a good reading light. I expected it to be more noisy given the number of beds in the dormitory. The silence times were strictly enforced and it seemed to work well. I ended up extending my stay at the hostel.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's 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 little more.

    Good location, big dorm room with just 3 beds; the cheapest price on Cozumel (200 pesos per night:)), owner tries to make this place sort of trust and open, so don't be surprised when you find out there are no lockers and main door remains open 24/7. However, I would say it's more an advantage and the place is safe

    Location was great and the beds were comfortable. We had a family suite with bunk beds and were pleasantly surprised at the space. Small fridge, a/c worked, warm water for the shower. Budget hotel and worked for what we were looking for. Coffee at the breakfast was good. Pool was very small, but the view from the roof top was great. It was a nice spot to have your coffee in the morning and the kids still enjoyed to hang out in the pool at night for a quick swim.

    Ara and Diego are the best. They created a little home from home. Everything is very clean, all that you need is there (even a little lock for your locker). Free drinking water. Great location, quiet area. Comfortable beds. Fans & airco in the room. Excellent wifi. I’m not a hostel person, but this has been the best due to how Ara & Diego run it.

    Very nice colored relaxing place with outdoor pool and jacuzzi. Very friendly and helpful owners, always ready to help and inform. Nice staff. Good breakfast. Kitchen and fridge available for guests, next to the pool. Next to an “always” open supermarket. About 2km from the town center (and certainly quieter so), where ferries to Playa del Carmen are also located. Taxis to the center are cheap (50 pesos, ie less than 3 US$). Good wifi. Cozumel seems to be a quiet and globally safe place.

    Ara & Diego are wonderful & very kind. They’re frequently around checking in on everyone & keeping up the hostel. Diego helped me fix a bike a got & Ara’s alway a call away. 💕 The house is beautiful with nice common areas and is never to busy. Super safe, lots of locks on everything. Love it here.

    Great location, best shower I have ever had in a hostel in 12 years of travelling! The beds in the dorm were very comfortable, great shutter system so it seemed very private also. good air con through the night! Friendly staff who gave good tips on restaurants and we did a snorkel tour through the hostel that was amazing and cheaper than everywhere else too
