Have just returned from lovely two week stay in apt. We had lower beach front apt with full kitchen which was just right for us, allowing us to enjoy our stay at relaxed pace. Managers, Adlai and mattias very helpful and unobtrusive, exactly right balance. It's at quiet end of town but you are never more than five minutes from... More

My husband and I enjoyed our suite on the second floor. It was large with a king-sized bed and a large balcony with a direct ocean view. Although we were disappointed that the wireless internet was unavailable the first few days, we realized that it was through no fault of the managers. Once it was restored, we had good internet...

We stay in the second floor (left) apartment for five nights. The hosts were lovely and very accommodating. King size bed was very comfortable and the patio was a wonderful place to just hang out. Loved walking on the beach, swimming in the ocean or just watching the pelicans dive for fish. Truly a restful vacation. At our request, our... More

The Holbox upstairs apartment was even more lovely than the pictures showed. The view and sunset were spectacular. Having a fridge is such an extra treat. The shaded palapas out front with comfortable chaise lounges were great for reading and protection from the sun. The ocean out front was warm and clean. Either direction offers a great walk, the one... More

We spent the last week of a 5 month trip through South and Central America at Holbox Apartments. Our (upper floor) apartment was wonderful - just as indicated by the pictures and video that we had seen. The apartment was spacious and well fitted out - The fridge made keeping those "delivered to the door" beers nice and cold. Adla... More

Holbox is a low-key, relaxing place, and the lovely Holbox Apartments perfectly matches the atmosphere of the island. The spacious upstairs apartment was exactly as advertised--the photos are accurate. Gorgeous view from the large terrace, which is partially covered with a high palapa roof & includes loungers for sunbathing and hammock for siestas. The sunsets from this vantage point are... More

We just got back from a relaxing two weeks on Holbox Island, "a hundred miles from Cancun geographically and a million miles culturally". The island is 90% tropical wilderness and 10% Mexican fishing village and virtually autoless. Tramping on the beach and birding in the interior interrupted by marvelous seafood dinners in town and jaunts to the mainland for coral... More

We returned two weeks ago from a wonderful visit to Holbox Island and the lovely Holbox Apartments. I had been looking for the right place to rent with the other couple we were going with. One house a little further down the beach fell through but in the end we decided that was a blessing. We later saw it and... More
