Nice beachfront hotel right in the heart of town, if you like to go out and party this is your place since you are next to all the party locations, if you want to relax then choose another property because the bars nearby are very noisy up untill the morning. The rooms are nice and it’s very walkable around

The view of the beach is amazing. For the price, the conditions are very good - rustic, but that's the charm of Holbox. Amazing sunset, especially if your room is on the second door. At night it is very noisy because of the bars, but again, that's the charm of Holbox! We really loved our stay! Thank you!

Exactly as pictured. Easily walk from the pool to the sea. Lots of bars around so there is loud music always, but they let us know at check in and gave us earplugs.

Location is awesome but you will need earbuds to sleep well. Staff provides world wide service, extremely friendly and accommodating. The pool was really cold so it was nice during the day but not in the evening. This property just needs a bit more of furniture to put your belongings a tv and it will be perfect. Over all highly recommended to experience walking from your bed to the sea, thank you guys for such a great experience.

Great experience. Lovely staff, incredible beachfront location. Front desk was so helpful booking tours and taxis for us. I loved the old school tropical vibe of the rooms, they feel living in a James Bond novel (though the excellent aircon made me grateful to live in modern times). The (unaffiliated) beach bar out front is really loud, very late, every night, but the hotel can't control them. Overall I really would recommend the hotel, just bring quality earplugs! If I were Oól, I'd look at buying that bar and improving it (the bar is always empty despite having a perfect location.) Great breakfasts at Limulus, a few doors down to the east.

Good placement right on the beach but there is a bar very close that play techno music until 4 am.. the hotel staff did offer us earplugs. Lot of ants in the room, asked if the could spray not sure they did it. I used my mosquito spray it help a bit. Rest of hotel was good, Staff very friendly.

Loved this place. Can’t beat the location and the staff is wonderful. It is right on the beach by some bars and it can be a loud at night. If you want fun, clean, safe, in town, close to everything, and right on the beach this is a fabulous option. If you are looking for fancy and quiet this is not what you are looking for. But we LOVED it and will be back.

Property is great location and staff so kind but there are noisy bars close. On a sunday night it wasn’t bad but weekend nights can get loud. Also, expedia map has wrong location. It shows the property 2 blocks east of the square …, but it’s not. It’s right off the main pier. My one night stay was lovely though I booked based on an incorrect location which is not the hotel fault but hopefully Expedia cam correct.

Très bien situé!

Très belle expérience ! L’endroit vient d’ouvrir, tout est neuf, la piscine est géniale, le directeur et les employés sont vraiment sympathiques et aidants. ❤️ Quelques améliorations sont à apporter (crochets, anti-dérapant sur les marches de la piscine, plus de chaises/tables extérieures, 1-2 chaises sur chacun des balcons): le directeur est tout ouïe aux commentaires des clients. Si vous désirez le calme pour dormir, soyez avertis: il y a de la musique forte autour jusqu’à tard dans la nuit.
