It was super cold in the room. There were huge gaps between a wall and a window, so when the wind was blowing it felt like being outside. Water in the shower barely warm, didn't feel brave enough to wash my hair, just too cold. Moved a chair in the room and there was so much dust and dirt underneath.

The view from the bedroom was beautiful and the room was very clean. Staff was super nice and the people were wonderful. Breakfast restaurant on the ocean had an amazing view and food was absolutely delicious. It was nice to wind down without all the commotion of the big city. Just take in the beautiful views with the city of Holbox and the ocean! I would definitely go back! Everything was great! If I could make it better. I made it work but only 2 plugs in bedroom. I have a CPAP and they should have a few more outlets in the room. 2025 - Also better WiFi or internet signal and speed. 2/3g

Breakfast choice were fantastic and delicious breakfast juice choices too! The reception staff were also on hand to answer all the questions.

I loved La Palapa. The staff the cleanliness - the location is ideal! The maintenance staff keep it so clean. Raking the sand, wiping the wood down (polishing!) everything is immaculate. I loved my 10 days there and would not hesitate to book again. What a little gem. Intimate and picturesque.

Overall, I enjoyed my stay at La Palapa. The location is excellent (it is loud at night from beach club but that is unavoidable in town). Breakfast is wonderful, as it service on the lounge chairs- big thank you to David for being the star employee for us, his service was excellent. I found front desk staff to be average at best- with only one female employee being friendly, the male seemed uninterested in talking to us at all. We upgraded to the “panorama suite” the first 3 nights as we couldn’t get two rooms and that was the poor experience. It is very expensive (luxury level pricing) and the condition is 2-3 star at best. Stained sheets, dirty rugs, sliding doors that don’t lock. This suite is severely overpriced and nobody with a $1000 night budget would be happy with the quality. We found this unacceptable. We much preferred our standard double queen and King suite rooms- which had a higher standard of quality and cleanliness than the upgraded suite. If we had only had the standard rooms my review would be better.

Nice place!! But beware of room charge. You book in USD… they charge in Mexican Pesos at the rate they like (20 $/USD instead of actual rate of 18.5)… then your card go back to USD and your room, all of a sudden, becomes 7.5% more expensive!!

Good location but horrible beach area

The hotel is pretty and they try to keep it clean. The included breakfast is nice. There is no beach and the smell from the water was horrible. They try to hide it with incense but it's really strong. The location is great but just don't plan on spending the day at the beach.
