Boutique Hotel El Nido Holbox

The accommodation provides spacious, comfortable rooms with a peaceful atmosphere and unique features. Guests appreciate the attentive staff, delicious breakfast, and serene location. Some mention missing amenities in the rooms.

Stayed at El Nido for 7 nights on our first trip to Holbox. Chose this hotel as we wanted a relaxing atmosphere after a week in Tulum. It was definitely that. The aesthetic is lovely although we would have liked a mirror/ vanity area in the room and perhaps coffee making facilities & a fridge. Otherwise very spacious. Pool area was often quiet too and we enjoyed the breakfast options. 5 minute walk to punta coco which was by far the best beach. Also close to the bioluminescence so you can easily visit by yourself at night rather than paying for a tour. We perhaps under estimated the size of Holbox. We are active and don’t mind walking or cycling but found after 7 days a 20 minute cycle to and from town was a little tiring in the heat. So long as you are prepared for this and accept the road conditions are not great then it’s a lovely place to stay! Grab some drinks from the little shop towards punta coco and head to the pier for the most beautiful sunsets!!

We chose el Nido for our vacation in Holbox and we could not have picked a better place. The hotel in itself is absolutely gorgeous : the shared areas are beautifully decorated, with a minimalist yet bohemian feel to it. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and peaceful and feature a great king size bed, spacious bathroom and several ingenious features. I especially appreciated the small patios in front of all the rooms should you want to drink your coffee or read by yourself. Lastly, the rooms are superbly decorated and we always felt at peace when coming back for the night. as for food and beverages, you are in for a treat. The breakfast is fresh and copious, with lots of options which means you will never get bored of it. There are different fresh juices (melon, pineapple, passion…) every morning, and several types of eggs or avocado toast. During the day, you can order a selection of well-priced and well-made cocktails, wine or non alcoholic drinks by the pool, or their delicious guacamole. The restaurant also offers fresh and healthy dishes for lunch or dinner and the menu changes every day. Finally, we adored the service : every one was super helpful and lovely, always ready to help with any problem or questions we might have. The place is a little distance away from the main village but this was not a problem at all. You can rent bikes at the hotel and get to the furthest part of the island in less than 15 minutes, or to holbox village in 7 minutes, or ask for a taxi which is even quicker. There are lovely spots and restaurants around El Nido though, and the most beautiful sunsets are found in this area. You will find several beaches and beach clubs around, which is great if you are looking for a quiet day. Finally, if you want to go to the village for a drink at night, it’s safe and easy to come back after dark. Overall, we absolutely loved our stay at El Nido. We got to experience all the perks of Holbox : its nature, great food, kitesurfing, and lively ambiance - while staying in a tasteful, spacious, and quiet haven. Do not hesitate!
