Comfy, peaceful hippy style hostel with solid vegetarian breakfasts, a well equipped kitchen, excellent beds, good bathrooms (excellent hot water!), pleasant shared spaces, and fantastic free yoga classes. I wish they had yoga every day rather than just 3 days a week, the class I joined was fantastic! Location is very good, though when I return to San Cris I will probably look for a place to stay a bit downhill.
Nothing, it’s excellent. Definitely has a hippy-dippy, nutty crunchy style - I would prefer less health-foodie breakfasts (with salsa!), but that’s a personal preference, not a criticism.

La Isla Hostel is an absolutely fantastic hostel that we would warmly recommend to anyone and everyone. The breakfast is good, the terrace is cozy, and the indoor common areas are wonderfully and comfortably decorated. Overall, it’s a place where you just feel like hanging out. We even ended up extending our stay.
Everyone is incredibly kind, and it feels very much like a family. The staff and volunteers are always ready with great recommendations for things to experience in San Cristóbal de las Casas and are extremely helpful.
As a bonus, there is also free yoga three times a week with highly skilled instructors. 10 out of 10! 🌟

I absolutely loved my stay at La Isla. Over months of travel it's the hostel that I felt most at "home" in.
The atmosphere is peaceful and friendly, with yoga and various other activities regularly organised. Breakfast is a pleasant, social start to the day.
The facilities are kept clean and it has a well equipped kitchen. The hostel is quiet for sleeping and well located in San Cris.
Thank you to everyone at La Isla for a wonderful stay.

The staff there were very lovely.
Most of the guests were long term and worked in the hostel, so it felt a little clicky at times.
There were also pre parties in the hostel both Monday and Tuesday evening which was abit annoying as we were looking for somewhere more chilled to catch up on sleep.
