Since this was out last days of our backpacking trip, we excerpted a calm and peaceful place to relax. Unfortunately our expectations for that accommodation were not met. The pictures did not reflect correctly the reality, the neighbor hood was quite noisy and we got lots of mosquito bites. We expected someone to welcome us but instead we only had a piece of paper. Nevertheless we enjoyed the kitchen and the bathroom products. Holbox is a beautiful island that is definitely worth to go!
Valentin2017-03-26T00:00:00ZThis place was absolutely great. We'd have happily stayed much longer. We felt really well looked after and loved having cleaners visit every day. It's a very clean, spacious place with great air con in the bedroom. Nice big bathroom and really lovely shower. The location of the flat worked for us too. It's easy to look at the map and think that you'd rather be closer to the beach, but the distances are so small that it really makes no difference at all. Really appreciated the discount on weekly rates, it made it really good value.
Angie2016-07-02T00:00:00ZNo me fue posible hospedarme pero la atención y amabilidad excelente
Alinå2016-11-09T00:00:00ZNot far from your arriving at the island, close range to the "center" and beach. Nice, tidy and clean : just perfect !! And Olga is helpful : we made a boat trip that was later than the check-out, but she kept our bags until we were back. Thank you Olga !
Nicolas2016-11-14T00:00:00ZLa Casa Frida is nice and quiet place, very close to the ferry so very appreciated when carrying a heavy luggage. It is only 5 minutes from the main square and the market so it is easy to find where to eat around. The beach is also a few minutes walk from there. The rooms are clean and spacious, the mattress was very comfortable. The organic coconut soap and shampoos they give smell super good. The only "bad" thing we noticed is that they did not change our towels and bath mat although we stayed 4 nights and they were smelling moldy. Other than that our stay was good and we would probably book again.
Manon2017-02-20T00:00:00ZExcelente lugar, me volveria a quedar en casa frida, buen precio, nos recibieron muy bien, gracias!!
Erick2017-01-27T00:00:00ZIf you like an overpriced, simple establishment, this is for you. Pros: Clean, provides coffee (most of the time) and even wine for Xmas and New Years. Comfortable bed. Cons: Far from beach; only 3 minutes of hot water at a time;burning trash outside of your window; your front room does not belong to you. It is an operational laundromat/supply room for Casa Frida.( Really.) This is not a great value. I wouldn't recommend #3 at Casa Frida.
Steven2017-01-04T00:00:00ZIt was nice to stay here. Good located, friendly staff, clean and cheap bicycle rent.

Niccolo es super amable, nos dio todos los tips, de la ciudad, estancia etc, que pudimos necesitar el lugar es adorable, espacioso, limpio y cómodo.
Chamis2017-03-12T00:00:00ZWe thoroughly enjoyed staying at Casa Francesca; Isla Holbox is stunning and the location of the room is perfect- far enough away from the hotels to have the beach (only a 1 minute walk away) to yourself, and yet only a 20 minute walk to the centre. The room was large, clean and had everything we needed. It was handy to have use of the kitchen and clean drinking water too. I would certainly recommend!
Sarah2015-07-27T00:00:00ZWir haben uns in der Unterkunft bei Francesca sehr wohlgefühlt! Es ist ein perfekter Ausgangspunkt um einfach die wunderschönen Strände von Holbox zu genießen. Von der Haustür sind es nur 2 min. zum nächsten Strand! In die Stadt braucht man ca. 15 Min. zu Fuß. Das Haus ist sehr gemütlich eingerichtet und bietet alles was man braucht, inklusive eine Küche, sodass wir far nur selbst gekocht haben (Holbox ist was Essen gehen betrifft leider nicht besonders günstig) Und zwei wunderschöne Terrassen, von wo aus man Nachts die Sterne beobachten kann! Francesca stand uns bei jeglichen Problemen und Fragestellungen zur Seite und ihr Mann hat uns sogar bei unserer Abreise um 4:30h morgens zur Fähre gefahren! Wir vermissen jetzt shon die wunderschöne Zeit in Holbox und werden bestimmt noch einmal kommen und gerne wieder bei Francesca zu Gast sein! Top! :)
Sabrina2015-08-04T00:00:00ZEstá en una zona de la isla alejada de los hoteles y comercios lo cual la hace muy silenciosa, tranquila, perfecta para desconectarse. Llegar puede ser difícil si llueve o si es tarde porque hay poco alumbrado público y muchos mosquitos. Nosotros fuimos felices rentando bicicletas, con ellas podíamos ir de punta a punta por la playa o pasear por el centro. Con los charcos grandes y los moscos era un poco pesado pero fue una divertida aventura. Vimos muchos animales en la casa: pájaros, iguanas, lagartijas, tango ( la perrita del vecino), otros que nos dieron sustos como un escarabajo enorme y un alacrán en la terraza :S Nos gustó que no tuviera aire acondicionado pero creo que nos tocaron días poco calurosos, los ventiladores ayudaban muchísimo a aumentar moscas y mosquitos. Vimos estrellas y luciernagas. El cuarto es amplio, cómodo, funcional y amamos las acabados. Vivir sin referí fue pesado pero encontramos la forma, comprar poca comida perecedera y ponerle una o dos bolsas de hielo diario. La fruta y verdura sobrevive bastante mejor en cajas de madera. Lleven muchísimo repelente, sobretodo si es época de lluvias, la marca off en aerosol fue lo más útil. Allá venden pero más caro que en la ciudad. (Max90$ MEX) y pónganselo desde el ferry. Niccolò fue amable, sincero y hace helados muy ricos, nos sentimos muy libres y cómodos en su casa, creemos que la cocina podría mejorar muchísimo con algunas cosas sencillas como palitas para cocinar, cucharones, más cucharas y cuchillos más grandes. Con eso puedes hacer desayuno y cena y solo comer fuera una vez al día. Ah! Un día comimos un coco de las palmeras de la casa, eso me encantó. la playa no se ve desde la casa y ahorita hay una construcción enfrente, de pronto hay ruido pero también uno de los trabajadores canta muy lindo, así que se compensa :) . Llegas a la playa en 50 pasos, muy cerquita y casi no pasan personas y nunca pasan carritos de golf ruidosos ni se estacionan lanchas. La recomiendo si les gusta explorar y vivir aventuritas.
Maluz2016-07-01T00:00:00ZCasa Francesca was an un forgettable experience, we wanted to get properly away from all and we found the place. Tucked away 20 min walk from town was a perfect hideout, we walk every day on the beach to see the colony of flamingos and many bird species. The beach was just 200m away. Comfy beds, great Hammocks. During rainy season Oct-Jan bring extra mosquito repellent !
Carl2015-12-21T00:00:00ZSehr schöne Unterkunft ca. 20 Minute vom Stadtzentrum (zu Fuß) entfernt. Direkt um die Ecke ist der Naturstrand. Es gibt keinen Kühlschrank vor Ort; zur Kühlung gibt es eine Eisbox. An sich die perfekte Unterkunft um dem Trubel zu entgehen, leider wird aktuell auf dem Nebengrundstück gebaut (ca. 8-19 Uhr). Niccolò ist ein super Gastgeber.
Jan2016-03-24T00:00:00ZLovely room at the end of the island, in a quite and secluded spot. My boyfriend and I truly enjoyed our stay in Francesca's beautiful house. The room was spacious, simple and modern. Notes: - Pack mosquito repellent, this area of the island has a lot especially when we stayed (mid October) - If you are staying in that time you can only really leave the house when the sun is out and got, otherwise you will be eaten alive by mosquitos, so pack a good book as the Internet isn't great back here either. - you don't have a fridge, but an ice box. This was fine for us as we brought a few things form the mainland (cheaper) and cooked ourselves with things that didn't need to be in a fridge. The shops in town are a 15-20min walk away (5-10 min cycle) and sell most things including ice for your icebox. Like I said, the room itself and house is great with a patio, hammock, roof terrace etc. The bed is extremely comfortable and the towels and sheets are spotless and high quality. Francesca responded to all my questions within a few hours and Niccolo, who stays at the house, picked us up and dropped us off at the ferry. Holbox itself is paradise on earth! Oh and try their ice cream - it's fantastic!
Louisa2015-10-14T00:00:00Zwe had a very pleasant stay at casa francesca while we have been on the lovely island of holbox! we were a group of 6 and had both rooms. it is quite a walk into the centre but if you are there only a couple of days and take the route en beach you wont regret anything

Isla Holbox, Quintana Roo, Meksiko
Holbox is a true dream-place and Casa de Alux is particularly well located, in a quiet spot yet very close to the beach and main square. The bungalow is modern and comfortable with a renovated bathroom, A/C, good wifi. Willy was very easy to communicate with ans helped coordinate our arrivals and departures. I highly recommend Holbox and Casa de Alux!
Martha2016-08-23T00:00:00ZMartha and Willy had a very nice welcome for us when we arrived in there Casa del Alux, with fresh fruits and a tasty wine. They builted a lovely house in a quiet nature area which has such a good vibe around, looking to the mangrove in front of your feet....very special, you just forget to go to the beach which is just 5 minutes walk...they have a great huge sleepingroom, with a big bed in which you sleep like in heaven...fantastic! hammock outside, everything new and very clean- we had the perfect weekend, lonely and privat . Compare to a hotel: just go there, if you don t like to sleep door on door with ohters.... Martha and Willy are one of the nicest people we have meet in Mexiko. Hope to see them once again on a 2. visit on this wonderful island....
rena2016-02-16T00:00:00ZCasa Del Alux was a dream come true for our stay on Isla Holbox. The property consists of two buildings; one a kitchen with bath, and the other a large suite with king bed and full bath. Nice towels and linens and stereo system to use with our phone. Both buildings have a shaded porch with hammocks, table and sofa for relaxing. The property abuts a lagoon with many singing birds. Binoculars and bird guide were available for us to use. We particularly enjoyed that bicycles were provided which we used to get around the island. The place was private and quiet and surpassed our expectations. It was very safe and secure and close to the beach and restaurants. Housekeeping was provided every other day. The hosts were anxious to ensure we had everything we needed. Would highly recommend and look forward to staying there again.
Daphne2017-02-18T00:00:00ZWe loved our time at Casa del Alux! It was VERY private, located at the end of a little road (right on a beautiful lagoon with tons of birds--so nice to wake up to!) and only 2 blocks from the beach. All of the towels and linens were excellent quality and the decor and furnishings are comfortable and elegant. Willy and Martha were very gracious hosts, making sure we had everything we needed throughout our visit. We'd stay here again, no question.
kristina2016-02-09T00:00:00ZMartha & Willy were so helpful from the beginning - answering my countless questions prior to arrival up to greeting us at the ferry terminal once we got there. The home is so scenic, the bed was incredibly comfortable, and it was both secluded yet a short walk to both the beach and the town. I will be back!
Rujuta2017-04-21T00:00:00ZA Perfect place to relax and enjoy the wonderful island. I highly HIGHLY recommend, particularly those who love nature, bird watching. I was just in awe of the amount of birds we saw. Great value, lovely touches with hammocks, bikes, sound system and coffee maker. Don't want to leave!!
laura2017-03-24T00:00:00ZMartha and Willy's casa is a beautiful place to relax and get away from it all. The 5 minute walk to the beach and 10 minute walk to town makes it a perfect combination of private and accessible. We are leaving with a new appreciation for hammocks and truly enjoyed the bird watching (amazing Spoonbills)! Willy and Martha met us upon arrival to help acquaint us with the house and were excellent about communicating before, during and after our stay on Isla Holbox. We particularly appreciated and highly recommend using their help with transportation to and from the airport. Overall 5 star experience!
Teema2017-04-09T00:00:00ZThis place was wonderful- it was lovely and quiet and so thoughtfully designed. Near to a lovely bit of beach, great to have outside private space and has everything you need for a perfect stay! Bikes were brilliant too.

The host canceled this reservation 3 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.
Heather2017-01-20T00:00:00ZStaying at Casa de Los Angeles was a perfect way to experience Isla Holbox. The house is tucked back a bit from the rest of town and the beach, but an easy walk to everything. The house has towels and basic amenities, and easily slept four of us. The pictures are accurate and the house easily met our expectations. The hosts provided great recommendations and were very communicative!
Nora2017-03-03T00:00:00ZThis is a characterful house in a great location, but rather expensive compared with others in Mexico. Catherine was very helpful both before and during our stay. With her housekeeper, Lourdes, she arranged for us to go snorkelling with whale sharks (although this did not go as smoothly as we'd hoped due to engine failure). It is a very short walk to a beautiful beach from which you get some great sunsets and an easy walk into the small town.
Jane2016-07-25T00:00:00ZThe host canceled this reservation 28 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.
Rigas et Isaure2016-10-26T00:00:00ZThe listing was as described! Remote, quiet and just right outside of town. The island is not touristy at all yet, especially in the part we stayed in. The beautiful beach was just across the street and the stunning nature reserve part of the island in walking distance. We loved our stay in Holbox and at Casa de Los Angeles. All pre trip planning and communication with the host went smooth. Lourdes, the local housekeeper, was able to organize us an amazing fresh fish from the local fisher men one night! We would recommend anyone to stay there and certainly want to come back one day!
Andreas2016-03-10T00:00:00ZCasa de Los Angeles is a magical little home with beautiful curves, colorful art and comfy beds. The kitchen has great amenities and we had a nice time cooking and hanging out at the house in the evenings with friends. We enjoyed the upstairs veranda at night after the mosquitos went away and also in the afternoon for siesta. The road to town is a nice walk and if you look for it, you'll find a reforestion nursery where a retired Holbox fisherman lovingly cares for palms and other species to be outplanted into Holbox's natural areas. Be sure to order a fresh fish from the housekeeper Lourdes. She'll bring it to you gutted so that you can dress and grill it yourself. She also provides a bag of carbon. Yum! We will come back again to this very affordable tiny castle-like retreat.
jesse2017-02-09T00:00:00ZWe had an excellent experience on such short notice in this house. It has some very original colors and feels like an home, so that is exactly how we felt. Our son of 5 years old had a terrific stay as some previous visitors left some small toys (so we did too!) for the beach that is only a stone throw away (5 minutes!!). The latter I did not expect, the beach is really exquisite and private and we had no urge to visit anywhere else. Thank you so much!
Laurence2017-04-27T00:00:00ZLa casa esta super cerquita de la playa, cuenta con buenos espacios y muy accesible a cualquier lado de Holbox, fue muy agradable el tiempo en ella

Holbox is just amazing and I hope it stays as clean and as peaceful as we found it. Casa Luz is great, clean, just far enough from the downtown Holbox so one gets to enjoy a nice walk on the beach to and from buying food. If you are looking for a peaceful retreat this is for you; if you are looking for party, then definitely this is not the place. The king sized bunker bed idea is awesome! Jazmin was great with our light breakfast. Looking forward to staying here again!
Jocelyn2017-03-31T00:00:00ZExcelente todo, muy recomendable
Andres2016-07-23T00:00:00ZExcelente acceso a la playa, la atención de la gente y servicio de desayuno muy bueno, habitaciones lindas y cómodas, pasamos unos días muy agusto.
Vero2016-11-23T00:00:00ZUna experiences increible en Casa Luz, Es el lugar perfecto para un a escapada, instalaciones impecablemente limpias y comfortable, acompañado de Una sesnsacion de estar con amigos gracias a la amabilidad de Bertha y su equipo.
Valeria2016-03-27T00:00:00ZCasa Luz is a very nice house located right on the beach. it is in a very quiet area, it's clean, comfortable, you have everything that you need there. The team working at Casa Tekywara were amazing, lovely people. We miss them! And there is something special about the Hotel and the type of clientele they attract. Everyone is cool and looking to chill.
Pierre et Martyna2017-03-08T00:00:00ZUn lugar tranquilo, todos son muy amables, con una vista genial y a un precio muy razonable. Lo recomiendo ampliamente
Jose Antonio2017-03-26T00:00:00ZEl lugar es justo como se ve en las imágenes, es una casa-hotel súper tranquilo para poder relajarte el único detalle que no me mucho gustó fue que está alejado del centro y en la noche hay que caminar mucho sobre la orilla Del Mar a oscuras, también fue bueno para poder ver las estrellas. No sé si sea solo el hotel o en si toda la isla porque el día que llegamos había muchísimo sargazo en la playa y nadie se encarga de limpiarlo. El recepcionista fue muy atento y nos explicó muchísimo de lo que teníamos que entender y visitar!
Denna2017-01-25T00:00:00ZExelente todo,muy buena atencion de julio y luper,jasmin en el desayuno y en la limpieza exelente

Really enjoying staying here, place Is right on the beach and the rooms are clean and cool... we've even booked another night! The chilled vibe definitely in keeping with Holbox itself. Fede really helpful and even provided us with a cool box for our room to keep our drinks cool :)
Allana2017-03-01T00:00:00ZBuen lugar para quedarse, accesible a la playa, comodo, limpio y la gente amable
Juan Jose2017-04-19T00:00:00ZI'm not one to write bad reviews although I was really disappointed with this place. The location couldn't be better though, right on the beach and Fede was a great host. We ended up having to leave early and he refunded us our money and got back to us right away. The rooms were not clean though. The toilet seat was dirty as well as the floors and there were spider webs and spiders on the wall. It was also very noisy at night with people coming in and out screaming, banging on doors and running up and down the stairs This place has great potential if they clean it up a bit!
Jessica2017-02-26T00:00:00ZLa ubicación es excelente, todos muy amables y las habitaciones muy cómodas!!!
Nery2017-03-26T00:00:00ZExcelente ubicación a 3 min del mar, espacio limpio y fuimos tratadas como en casa! Recomendable

Javier2017-04-16T00:00:00ZWe loved the location of the accommodation, as it was right on the beach. A very chilled atmosphere, with very sociable and interesting neighbours, and in a very convenient location. We had an amazing time on Holbox, partly to do with the place where we stayed!

Angelica2017-04-20T00:00:00ZWe stayed at casa frida for 10 nights. We were 3 persons. It was perfect. Just a 10min walk from the beach. 5min from the market place. 2min from a supermarket. The apartment was great, we had everything we needed. It was an awesome trip to holbox and we definitely come back. One advise: Dont leave your "expensive shoes" in front of the door, during the night. (Adidas and nike sneaker has been stolen after one week)... (URL HIDDEN) was a super location to chill and its perfect, that you can have roomservice from 9 to 11 am. Thank you Olga

Awesome place, very close to the beach and far enough from the town. Highly recommended!!
Carlos2016-04-15T00:00:00ZOverall, we loved staying at Casa Francesca. The room was spacious and lovely, and the setting was nice. Niccolo offered us lots of great suggestions about what to check out around town, which we really appreciated. We enjoyed being out of the heart of town (the closest beach was gorgeous and every day we were the only ones there!). The wifi was down for our whole stay, and apparently it had not been functioning for a month before we arrived. It wasn't a huge deal for us, but it would have been helpful to know that in advance. The power would also dwindle at night, and when the fan stopped working, it definitely got hot. If you're up for a nice walk/bike to town and enduring some sweaty nights, Casa Francesca is a great option on Isla Holbox!
Laura Jaya2016-07-18T00:00:00ZWe had a great stay at Niccolos place. He came to pick us up from town and drove us to the house, which is spacious and secluded. The room had everything we needed, it was comfy and clean with lots of extra blankets and linen. Its a 2 minute walk away from an almost deserted beach. From the map it looks like its closer to the town, but its a bit of a walk away. We walked to town via the beach each night which was lovely as you can see all the stars, it was about a 20min walk. Otherwise its best to get a taxi.
Leila2016-02-24T00:00:00Zheel mooi huis vlakbij rustig strand op half uurtje wandelen van centrum.ideaal voor mensen die rust zoeken!
Iris2016-06-25T00:00:00ZWe loved our 4 night getaway at casa frencesca. The casa is located a peaceful 20min walk from town. The house is beautiful and our bedroom is very comfortable and spacious. Niccolò and his girlfriend are very kind and accommodating.
Carla2016-02-21T00:00:00ZGreat place to stay! The room is nice and spacious, the bed is one of the most comfortable we've slept in, everything is clean, the location is a bit out of the center but the island is small so nothing is too far away, 2 minutes walk to the beach from the house, really nice place! Mareva and Niccolo were the best, really welcoming, nice and helpful, they made our stay even better!
Cyril2016-12-26T00:00:00ZEl lugar de Nicollo es muy bonito, nos dio toallas solamente para ducharnos ustedes tienen que llevar toallas para la playa. Tiene agua caliente y la cama es cómoda. Como recomendaciones si se quedan ahí son... Alquilar una bicicleta y llevar una linterna ya que no hay nada de luz de camino a la casa. Si quieren caminar por el día son unos 25 minutos por la playa hasta llegar al centro. Por la noche no recomiendo ir por la playa ya que sube la marea y hay una parte donde se hace imposible pasar ya que hay un hotel. Siempre lleven linterna en las noches y mucho repelente. Los taxis no siempre quieren ir a dejarte... Así que lo de la bicicleta es la opción. Alquilar un carrito de golf son 1000 pesos diarios y el taxi 50 pesos igual que la bicicleta. Si su decisión es pedir taxis.... Recuerden que los llevará pero después no los recogerá. No hay ningún restaurante ni sitio para comer antes de llegar al pueblo tampoco hay refrigerador solamente una pequeña hielera.
LEILIANI2016-01-02T00:00:00ZTutto perfetto. come da immagini e descrizione. Niccolo è stato molto carino e gentile. :)

House was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay in this convenient location. House had almost all the amenities of home with only a few missing. It's location made it easy to walk to town whenever we felt the urge. One of the prices of been convenient was the noise of the vehicles at all times of the day. Our house we're great and very responsive thank you for a very nice day.
George2017-02-13T00:00:00ZEdwin nos ayudó muchísimo. Nos recogió y nos llevó a las casa y nos explicó todo. Incluso nos enseñó la isla y todo. La casa es buenísima y está muy bien ubicado. Tiene de todo. Nos rentó un carrito bien barato. Si vas a holbox, y deberías porque vale la pena, quédate aquí. Súper recomendable! Edwin helped us so much! He met us at the dock and took us to the house and he even showed us around the island as well as the house. The location is great and that house has everything you would need. He let us hire his golf buggy for pretty cheap too. You need to go to Hollis and Deffo stay here if you do! Really it was great and super recommendable
Michael2016-12-22T00:00:00ZNice big house from outside, but inside already very old. Smell of room perfume and not complete clean. Key lady speak no word English and also problems with our basic Spain. Beds are horrible small (120cm) one big double bed ist wide but it is a air mattress ... We laught loud. So we (4p around 32) slept every alone on one bed and my wife also on the air mattress. We can't recommend this for groups of more then 4 P. Camping is better if you are 6 or 8. Also we doesn't like Holbox that much. Everybody said it's quite no cars and so on... Wtf there are lot of trucks and and tuned golfkarts driving around they are louder than 10 cars... Beaches are also only ok... So we would not recommend and won't come back.
Eduard2017-01-15T00:00:00ZIt was great. We enjoyed our stay very much. The location is great. We would definitely come back.
Iwan2017-03-18T00:00:00ZGreat house with all the necessary amenities for a very comfortable stay. We arrived later than anticipated but someone was there to let us into the house. Quiet location. We had a lovely time on this wonderful island!
Brigitte 2017-01-04T00:00:00ZExcelente lugar! Totalmente lo recomiendo!
Enrique2017-04-13T00:00:00ZStayed in this house for 2 nights for a little weekend getaway. Had a blast and really enjoyed the accommodation as well as the golf cart. The house is only about a 5 minute walk to anywhere and the owners were very accommodating with any request we had.
Steve2017-03-05T00:00:00ZEdwin was a fantastic, He showed us around, introduced to locals, went out of his way for everything. The place was great, super central, clean, large. The golf cart was really fun. Much better and cheaper than renting from other places. Travelers Note: Keep in mind that there is barely any Wifi on the island and his place doesn't have it either. Also make sure to bring a lot of pesos as it's almost impossible or extremely expensive to get pesos.

Wow! Sunset views from the deck and water just steps away. This house was just right for our family of 5. I will come back in a heartbeat!
Mark2017-02-25T00:00:00ZBruce's house is PERFECT!!!!! It is clean and well equipped with all of the essentials. You can't beat the view! It's a 15 minute walk to all the restaurants and shops. And you can easily catch a taxi home. The property manager, Chuy, is also one of the nicest people you will ever meet! He was so helpful and responsive to anything we needed. We loved everything about our stay at Cabo San Bruceski in Holbox!
Erin2017-03-06T00:00:00ZLa casa de Bruce es increible, un verdadero sueño! La hemos pasado genial, sintiendonos muy bien atendidos por Chui. Nos sorprendimos por no contar con agua caliente, aunque por suerte nos prestaron el baño en un hotel que estaba a dos cuadras. Recomiendo la casa de Bruce, es genial, un verdadero paraíso y muy bien equipada!
Javier2017-01-11T00:00:00ZIf your small group is looking for a tranquil, private beach home on Holbox within walking distance (15-20 minutes along the beachfront) to the town, this is a good choice. The sleeping quarters are comfortable and the kitchen is well-supplied for cooking in. We loved the open, airy feel of the home and the responsiveness of the host.
Elizabeth2016-10-28T00:00:00ZOur family of 4 stayed at Bruce's for 6 nights, the location is fantastic , very beautiful and unique. We swam, biked, boated, cooked, canoed, walked , ate incredibly well and 'hooned' around in a golf cart, which means travelling at a very leisurely pace with all the other tourists! There are some outstanding restaurants in Holbox including a placed called Milpin which gets our vote for exceptional desserts! We had a few issues on Day 1, and can not thank the local property manager Chuy enough- he provided excellent service, fixing the leaky toilet, advising on English speaking taxi drivers and helping with accessing medical care!! Thankyou to Chuy who got out of bed to ensure the water worked on our first night - that is excellent service . The house is well set up for indoor and outdoor living and a well stocked kitchen, thanks for the coffee pot Bruce. We managed without hot water which was a drag and not an ongoing issue as I know our host is likely there right now fixing this problem.We do recommend this unique place.
Chris2017-01-27T00:00:00ZWe enjoyed our week on Holbox immensely! The location is perfect: away from the increasingly popular beach-bar-hotel mile, but still directly on a beautiful beach and only a short walk to the center of town. The hosts are respectful of privacy and the house is well-equipped, clean and very comfortable. Highly recommended!
Scott2017-04-02T00:00:00ZOur family of four (2 adults, 2 teens) had a fantastic time during our week at Cabo San Bruceski. Isla Holbox is a beautiful and special place and this house is in a fantastic location. Having the beach at our front door was magical. Bruce's home is clean and comfortable and appointed with everything we needed. We loved throwing open all the windows and screens (mosquito free week!) upstairs so even being inside was like being outside. Chuy was such a lovely caretaker. He helped us with transportation and tours and was there to meet us when we arrived. We dream of going back and hope to some time in the not-to-distant future. Many thanks for the amazing and wonderful vacation.

We had just the best stay. Thank you tori
Roman2017-03-09T00:00:00ZNice place, close to everything. Près de tout et propre! Tori est super sympa, elle nous a permis de laisser nos bagages où elle travaille !
Guillaume2017-04-12T00:00:00ZGreat experience!!! Tori is a really nice person, she helped us with everything during our stay. Nice and clean place near from the beach.
Katia2017-01-01T00:00:00ZNice place with really nice hosts. Clean and friendly
Oliver2017-03-01T00:00:00ZWe had a great time here. Unfortunately Tori was not there but her boyfriend Iván could not have been more helpful! Not only did we stay in a great room, we also got the best recommendations for the island and a host who made sure we felt comfortable at all times.
Miriam2017-03-05T00:00:00ZGreat place.
Fernan2017-02-17T00:00:00ZUn lugar muy lindo y acogedor, Tori e Ivan muy amables y siempre atentos. Esta cabañita esta solo a un par de cuadras de la playa.
Claudia Patricia2017-04-14T00:00:00ZAmazing place. The island itself is as close to paradise as you can get, and this place adds to it. Lovely, spacious room, close to everything, yet not so close that you can't escape the hustle and bustle of the centre. As for the hosts, we didn't get to meet Tori as she was away (but helpful throughout the booking process), but instead met her partner Iván. He was incredibly helpful, telling us the best places to go and the best things to do in town. Always there if you needed him, but never invasive. Overall the whole experience was amazing, and I would go back to both Holbox and Tori and Iván's place in a heartbeat.

100% recomendable para ir un fin de semana y pasarla increible. La casa cuenta con todo lo necesario es muy comoda y linda , la ubicacion es muy buena ya que es una zona muy tranquila.. y esperen lo mejor de todo es que gladis y luis nos llevaron a otro terreno privado el cual esta frente al mar y puedes disfrutar comodamente de la playa y cuenta con sombra asi que es genial... osea que es un gran plus para esta linda casa. Gracias por sus atenciones. Recomiendo este lugar increible.
Diana2017-03-26T00:00:00ZTodo excelente, el mejor lugar que pudimos haber elegido, súper cerca de todos los lugares de interés, tranquila, muy cerca de la playa. El terreno " pedacito de cielo" increíble para pasar el día, muchísimas gracias por su hospitalidad
Gabiie2017-04-30T00:00:00ZOur stay at Gladis house was just perfect. The house is really nice and the neighborhood is really quite and the beach is just around the corner. Communicating with Gladis worked very well, she answered my questions immediately and was really nice and friendly. I can absolutely recommend her as a host and staying at this beautiful house during your holiday

Casa Gonza is pure paradise. The location is stunning, the house is clean, comfortable and has everything available to enhance your vacation experience. Gorgeous rooms with beautiful touches. We used their kayaks to paddle out in the turquoise sea every morning, grilled fresh fish brought to us by Silvia, the lovely housekeeper. A perfect vacation.
Alexa2017-03-01T00:00:00ZEs una casa hermosa, espacios amplios y muy confortables. A dos pasitos del mar. Dormir viendo las estrellas y escuchando el mar y despertarse frente al amanecer fue estupendo. Siempre hubo muy buena comunicación con Gonzalo. Unas vacaciones deliciosas.
Dolores2017-01-06T00:00:00ZGreat Place all the conforts that you need right on the beach, Gonza the owner very responsive and had all the instructions for an easy entry to the home. Very well mantained, internet and AC worked great. 5 star rating for sure. Will definitly return to this home.
Francesco2017-02-06T00:00:00ZEn la zona residencial de hol box, una casita con hermosa playa privada Wendy, la recamarista de la casa, muy linda y acomedida a ayudar a conseguir pescado fresco y taxis y lo que fuera necesario. Gonzalo es un gran anfitrion y respondio y ayudo ante cualquier situacion. hol box magico, solo hay q ir preparado para la hora de los moscos y evitar salir en ese periodo por que son muy persistentes. A la casa le hacen falta unos camastros y sombrillas para tener una estancia mas comoda en la playa. Tuvimos una experiencia muy bonita despues de 7 dias en la isla. graxias a gonzalo por prestarnos su casa.
Super2017-01-01T00:00:00ZUna casa mu cómoda, ideal para disfrutar de la playa, y el servicio que nos brindaron fue de verdad de primer nivel! 100% recomendable!
fabian2017-03-20T00:00:00ZThis house is absolutely perfect. It's a well designed beach house - simple, functional, clean, spacious, modern, and sits on a beautiful private beach. We had carts so its was super easy to get around to check out all the fun spots on the island but we had the best times just lounging around and playing in the water at Casa Gonza. Silvia keeps the house nice and clean and will even prepare delicious meals for you upon request. Holbox is magical, and this is the place to stay. Every single person in my group can't wait to go back.
Jimmy2017-04-08T00:00:00ZLa casa es espectacular, el servicio es súper bueno, y la playa privada es un plus! se recomienda alquilar carros de golf para mejor comodidad ya que la casa se encuentra a 20 min caminando desde el pueblo.
Omar2017-03-27T00:00:00ZLa ubicación es buena, pero el acceso es muy complicado ya que si llueve ni te alquilan un carrito de golf, ni los taxistas te llevan, además de que los caminos son muy complicados. Si vas a pie por la noche no hay ningún tipo de luz y la distancia no coincide con la que se indica en el anuncio. Hay muchísimos mosquitos. Si bien la casa es bonita, le faltan comodidades y sobretodo mobiliario de exterior para poder disfrutar de la playa. Aún siendo un sitio retirado hay mucho tránsito de personas en bici y andando por la playa hacia playa coco, lo que le quita mucha privacidad. La limpieza es insuficiente, las tapicerías estaban sucias, sabanas sin planchar, no había ni una manta y pasamos bastante frío por la noche. Mucha falta de previsión. Nos pasamos los dos primeros días sin gas, ni agua caliente en la casa. Nuestra experiencia fue totalmente negativa y no recomendaríamos a nadie este alojamiento. El trato por parte de Airbnb ha sido correcto, no tanto el del anfitrión.

Estuvimos muy comodos en la casa de joaquin, volveremos
Sebastian2017-03-08T00:00:00ZTodo extraordinario
Edmundo2017-04-16T00:00:00ZLa casa en general bien, aunque no funcionaban 2 baños, los demás si. La casa está apartada del centro aunque se puede caminar o usar bicicleta para conocer la isla.
Yuliet2017-03-19T00:00:00ZUña lugar tranquilo
Alejandro2016-12-30T00:00:00ZEnjoyed our stay on the island. Joaquin was upfront and honest about maintenance during our time there. It's a few blocks from centro but easily walkable or you can rent a golf cart.

Amazing house for a group of friends or family. Marta and her husband cleaned ever day and would cook is breakfast, lunch and dinner when ever we wanted which was amazing. The pool is lovely and its literally seconds from the beach, can't recommend this place enough!
Clare2015-08-28T00:00:00ZThere is a couple who takes care of the villa who went above and beyond to help us in everything we asked. The villa is perfect, the pictures don't do it justice. The beach in front of the villa is beautiful. It was about 13 of us who stayed here to celebrate our wedding and everyone absolutely loved it and having the couple who know the town well and we're able to recommend and show us around was perfect. Something you can't get at a hotel. I also loved waking up to a clean kitchen and living room everyday!
Christy2016-12-13T00:00:00ZChoosing Holbox for our family gathering and staying at Emilio's house was a total hit! The house is perfectly located, close to town but far enough from any noise and right across a narrow street from the ocean, so that even our kids could cross it and play in the sand!! The pictures do not show clearly the distribution of the house, so we were so happy to see it and enjoy it fully!! The public and social front part of the house includes the pool and terrace and living room, dining room and kitchen. And in the back, the bedrooms and their private bathrooms each! Marta and Delio, the caretakers made a huge difference in our stay, they were awesome and we could ask them for fresh fish or fruit from town and even a great ceviche twice, this is not included but it was worth it! The house is fully equipped and we even used the grill many nights! Our whole family loved the house and the experience was worth the long trip to the island!!
Ingrid2016-01-10T00:00:00ZThe house is lovely and in an ideal location, we had a perfect holiday! Marta and Delio were amazing, went out of their way to help us and cooked us the most deliciuos food!! Highly recommend this place.
Erika2016-11-09T00:00:00ZExcelente lugar, muy bonito muy recomendable.
Arturo2017-04-17T00:00:00ZThis place is amazing. The location is unbelievable and so beautiful. The house keepers Marta and Delois couldn't do enough for us and kept the place so clean and tidy. They also cooked the most wonderful food. It's really well located only ten mins from town to walk or a 2 minute taxi buggy ride. We all absolutely loved it.
