One of the first things you will notice when you travel to Holbox is that there are basically no cars on the island. That part that is occupied by locals and the Isla Holbox tourism industry is becoming one of the most popular tourist destinations in the Yucatan. It is part of the Quintana Roo state and most of the island is actually a protected Biosphere Reserve declared in 2004 by Ramsar (UNESCO). Holbox means ‘black hole’ in Mayan language and is the name of an island 10 kilometers (6 miles) off the north coast in Yucatan. Unlike what seems logic Holbox is pronounced as Hol-bosch in local Mexican Spanish. This is a little video of me visiting Isla Holbox, an intro for this ultimate travel guide, nothing fancy just a 1 minute video to get you started for your trip to Isla Holbox. Make these place part of your Yucatan itinerary, you won't regret it. Isla Holbox or Isla Mujeres? ISLA HOLBOX for sure!!!!!īefore your trip to Holbox also consider to visit the pink Lake in Rio Lagartos and drive a scooter around Cozumel. According to some travelers it is similar to visiting Isla Mujeres, but I totally disagree! Over the last 3 years I have visited the island multiple times also in the off season. No doubt Isla Holbox is one of the best paces to visit in Yucatan and not just because you can swim with whale sharks here.

The best places to see, things to do, where to stay, where to eat, how much it costs, how to get there, is it safe, activities, the internet situation, best time to visit and much more. In this complete Isla Holbox travel guide I will tell you everything you need to know when visiting Isla Holbox. What? We bought a large bottle for $80 at OXXO.Just 30 minutes after I arrived I knew immediately that traveling to Isla Holbox was a great decision! Wow, what a little paradise I just discovered up on the north coast of the Yucatan peninsula! The sandy roads, the laid-back vibe, the Caribbean sea, the beautiful beaches and so many travelers and happy faces. Or, they would sell us the VIP experience for $200 per night (so, $800 ) to drink top shelf tequila. We don't like hangovers and the crap tequila they served was trash. I wasn't expecting 1942, but Blanco or Reposado is reasonable, but nope, we had to buy our own bottle and fill our own margaritas.

For this reason alone, I will never come back to this resort. They DO NOT offer top shelf tequila in the all-inclusive.we have been to many resorts and have NEVER had to pay extra for Don Julio.

They might have Tecate light one minute, then only offer Coors light within 10 minutes. Refrigerator doesn't get cold enough in room.īeer options are hit and miss throughout the property. Rooms are nicely appointed, but the AC doesn't seem to work great. The chef (Charlie) was awesome and he cooked everything to perfection, highly recommended. Leo and Ruben took very good care us.Īsian restaurant (Himitsu) was the highlight of our food experience. Rendezvous bar staff were great, Carlos took great care of us. They tried to upsell us, but we politely declined and it was no problem. This review covers the good and bad, and with that said, we will never be back to resort again.
