Top hotels in Central Mission Beach
Bahia Resort Hotel
The property was very pretty and well maintained. The room was very clean and housekeeping did awesome. The only thing was that the room was very very dated. They did have a few rooms under remodel so very sure they are updating. Great location as well!

ITH Mission Beach Backpacker Hostel
This was the best! I loved staying here. Friday night burgers and pancake breakfast. It beat every hotel easily and to add to it, the volunteers were so hospitable. I really connected with them all. It felt like a distant family reunion.
