We stayed for a week in Paraiso del Mar. We wanted clean and comfortable, with a pool and AC, and it was just like I pictured it...not far from "town", nice grounds and simple but adequate rooms. We rented the Jr. Suite, no bells and whistles, just a king bed, frig, TV, and a sitting area. Rooms were clean, and... more

Let's start by saying, I stayed here because it was a recommendation from a friend who'd stayed here during the Villas' first year of operation. My stay was a completely different experience! Some examples: every upholstered surface was in drastic need of re-upholstering - the dining room chairs, room chairs & pads for beach chairs had torn seams & frayed... more

It´s Amazing, the island is really beautiful. You can swim in the ocean without waves, there is no movements in the sea. It´s lika a big pool. If you don´t know to swim, you don´t have any matter, because you can walk into the ocean houndred of metters and you continue in your foot. I advise you to get an... more

This was a lovely hotel off of the beaten path. The staff was gracious and very helpful. The rooms were very nice. We were a little surprised about how expensive Holbox was, but you have to consider the last time we were in the Yucatan Peninsula was 1987. No more cheap vacations in the Yucatan! Other than the price, Holbox... more

We've stayed here for two nights, to end our trip through Mexico. Isla Holbox is really paradise! But for not longer than a few days, because there is really nothing to do, except for lying at the white beach. There are a few small shops and I suppose there must be some places where you can eat. We've made a... more

We stayed at this hotel for two nights during a three week long tour in Mexico. Holbox is an off the beaten track destination and we would only recommend visiting if you are staying a couple of nights or plan to do some whale shark swimming. It is a quaint little place and interesting to see but really not much... more

We picked this hotel after reading all of the reviews on this website, and unlike the reviewer before me, I think the reviews were accurate. Don't go to Holbox expecting first class luxury resorts and pristine beaches. Don't go expecting to stay busy and see the sights. If you're looking for a chance to just relax and forget about everything... more

I chose to stay here based off this website. Tripadvisor had never failed me before. It's so nice because I can see pictures and read first hand reports to coorabirate it all. So there was no need for me to worry that I had picked my wife and I an 8 night stay there right? WORNG! I have travelled to... more

We arrived into a beautiful, spacious open-air lobby with a fountain ringed by conch shells, several hammock chairs, a large wooden bed with pillows, and a bar with stools and couches. Our check-in was prompt, and a bellman helped us to our room. It was a 2-floor suite but not the oceanfront. We entered on the ground floor and took... more
