Sandbar Beachfront Hostel & Restaurant

Great facilities but the atmosphere isn't great if you're solo

Nice spot next to the beach but be aware if it’s sargassum season it will smell! Dorm nice and private and air conditioning a blessing!

Desperately NEEDS an age limit for who is allowed to stay in dorms. A mean, dirty woman who looked at least 80 ruined the vibe with her stupid questions and ignorance. She moved my stuff without asking, which was especially annoying when she moved my clean towel and replaced it with her dirty one and didn't tell me until after I had used her dirty one. So unsanitary. Besides her theres old people all over and it's a bad vibe overall. Made me feel unsafe cause people with dementia and other age i...

If all your heart desires is a comfy bed, aircon and curtain to seclude yourself after the immense feeling of regret for choosing to stay at San Pedro, then this place is for you! It’s soulless but compared to the rest of San Pedro, it will feel like a Motown Den in 1970s New York. If you’re thinking about going to San Pedro, don’t, and go to Caye Caulker. You’re welcome. Also, to Sandbars credit, the rooms and bathrooms were super clean and the staff were great.

Great value for money can’t lie

Todo muy bien, falta un poco de ambiente para jóvenes

Rude management. They ask you to sign documents even where it explicitly states that a signature is not required, then they accept the booking and the payment, only to cancel the reservation afterward. To be avoided. Strong smell of sargassum throughout the property. On the positive side, the other island I later visited, Caye Caulker, is significantly more beautiful, with diving that is both cheaper and more spectacular.

Excelente por su calidad/precio

The hostel itself is actually very nice and has the perks of being a hotel too so can access the pool. The free breakfast is nice and a good money saver and kitchen is well stocked for making your own meals. the restaurant next to it is nice. Not a fan of San Pedro, as a female traveller the vibe was uncomfy and everyone was very starey when walking around.

Clean, pleasant and convenient experience. free breakfast and paddle boards is a nice touch. lots of games to play too. kitchen and bathrooms are great. there’s no social events and it’s an older crowd - more holiday makers than backpackers.

the dorms are great, have space for all the luggage inside the lockers, each one has its own private space with ports and a shelf and light. the facilities are verry good, free washing machine to use, good kitchen and communal areas. right on waterfront and two minutes to the city main street and supermarkets.

This place was amazing- way better than the photos. Private room is an excellent value.

Incredible hostel, comfy beds, free access to laundry, breakfast and paddle boards. Staff were lovely and great at giving information. Also reasonable price in a generally expensive place, I couldn't recommend it enough

i had a lovely stay & the staff were great! but i would have loved to see a few activities available at the place! awesome beds & great location !

It’s a hotel and hostel so the age mix is pretty big, which is totally fine but there are a lot of creepy older men

Leuk hostel! Goede sfeer, zowel een keuken als een restaurant. Locatie goed!

The location is perfect and there's a rooftop bar and pool, what more could ask for? Oh ya, it's cheap as hell and gives free breakfast!

Amazing place to stay. I met very fun people, which definitely helped with the experience. Centrally located to just about everything. Rooftop pool was epic. Beach is not great, but you can swim off the dock. Staff was great. Will definitely come back!

We stayed in a private room for 5 days and it was good. sandbar is clean, the staff are helpful, there’s free breakfast. If you are a young solo traveller, do not stay here. This hostel is not social at all, I would recommend that the hostel put on events and such like most other places do. Secondly, we got a room with a window to the hallway. I understand not everyone can have a balcony and window but we should not be paying the same price as the ocean view rooms, we should be able to choo...

Exceptional value. Very clean, comfortable beds, huge fridges and decent cooking facilities.
