Mayan Monkey Cancún

Dave was great! He really looks out for you and has your best interest in mind instead of just trying to get as much money out of you as possible. Hostel was a bit less social than I was expecting, but probably because I went during a slow time. Nice location super close to night life, restaurants, and beach

Everything about my stay was great, the room was big and comfortable with 2 full on bathrooms (8 beds room) which was great. The food at the bar was delicious and affordable with great service and value. The location was great, as it was basically across the street from a great beach and right by the bus stop. However, I would improve on the social aspect as sometimes it feels too dead and missing the connecting part of the hostel culture

Fantastic night at Mayan Monkey. Staff are super welcoming and nice. Location is easy from airport. View from deck from pool is beautiful. Yoga on the beach the next morning for sunrise. My private room was the nicest room I’ve ever stayed in a hostel. What more can you ask for?

I really loved my stay here - I made so many friends, the common rooms makes it easy to meet people and connect with others and there’s social activities planned for each day. The facilities were great and modern (I stayed in private, I didn’t need anything fancy) and centrally located. Would stay here again :)

Mayan Monkey Cancun was one of the highlights of my trip n Cancun, Mexico in November 2024. From the friendly staff, daily activities, and the amenities, my overall experience was fantastic. The location is perfect, daily happy hours, and the sunsets right off the back deck were always stunning. The sleeping quarters were cleaned and kept well by the staff daily. A big thank you to Dave! Dave the concierge, was excellent. He helped me plan all of my tours. He even came to wake me up the next morning for my Chichén Itzá tour--I had over slept from partying till 4am and had missed my 6am pickup time, luckily he was able to make things work and got me on the tour bus at 8:45. Always friendly and up for sharing travel stories, great guy. I enjoyed the social aspects and meeting new people. My experience from day one was fantastic, that, I had extended my trip 3 times. Please send my regards to Dave.

Great hostel. Staff very friendly. Shoutout to Miguel Patiño for bringing great vibes & making customers feel welcome. Rooms are quiet and you cant hear the music at night. Only thing is music is a little loud in the evening, its hard to converse with people. The pool is clean and refreshing.

Location is super convenient close to the beach access and the clubs area at night. The vibes are also really nice. The rooms cleanness was okay. I did have personal bad experience since i did loose money from my personal bag that I left for some time on my bed so i can’t blame the hostel .. just be careful for your own stuff. I just want to mention Dave at the front desk super helpful guy! He is the one to go to for all the experiences you want to do outside the hostel. He also great at dealing with the local businesses for any complains you could have on these excursions. So i recommend booking with him.

Such an amazing experience in this place! Beside the fact that the vibes and all the staff are just incredible- I want to point out the amazing Chris, Oscar, Jesus and Dave for jumping on their feet to help me as my phone fell into the lagoon, and didn’t leave me alone for a second until they rescued it. So much respect for this behavior- It’s not taken for granted. Will definitely be back!!!
