Absolutely loved the Onda Maya Hotel, we booked the studio room on the second floor, rooms were very clean with a great view and the best bed we have had all holiday. Loved the idea of being able to open a glass door to a part that was outside while showering ( no worries there is a wall and no one can peek in), it's just nice to stand in open fresh air while the shower runs. Lovely personnel at the reception that is always ready to help physcially or via Whatsapp (also outside office hours via Whatsapp)

We had an amazing stay and vacation in Holbox. This was definitely the best hotel choice on the island. Had not one issue, and the hostess was great with communication and getting our excursions booked. Would love to return, and we definitely would stay here again.

My stay at the Aparthotel was absolutely delightful. Beyond the beauty of the place where everything is new and modern, the courtesy and kindness of the staff made the experience even more enjoyable, creating a welcoming and family-like atmosphere. Special mention for the impeccable cleanliness of the facility and the beautiful pool that added a special touch to my stay, providing moments of true relaxation and fun. Higly recommended

A stunning apartment and hotel, cold water to drink outside the rooms and the whole island had a power outage expect this hotel because they have a generator. We had a great time in Holbox and we chose the right place

We loved everything about the hotel. Super friendly staff, the breakfast was complimentary and really delicious. We loved how it was a la carte. Nice touches: coffee machine in the room, beach towels, and the water machines on each floor. It was extremely clean considering the island is so dusty! The only thing I would change would be the pool loungers which weren’t really suitable for sun bathing/relaxing which meant we spent most of our time at beach clubs where we had to pay minimum consumption for sun loungers. Would definitely recommend as the location was perfect - really close to town but far enough out to be quiet and a few minutes walk to the beach.

Great place it's more like a one bedroom condo which is great, comfortable, modern, quiet and very clean. The location is great you have a pizzeria, pharmacy and breakfast spots within 2 blocks, and the beach is about a 5 minute walk. I'm a picky sleeper so the memory foam mattress hit just right. The staff was super helpful and always made sure to ask if we needed anything. I would definitely stay again and recommend if you are looking for a place in Holbox.

Absolutely one of nicest places we have stayed in Mexico. And we’ve been traveling to Mexico for 35 years.Maria and the staff were absolutely fabulous. Between recommendations of what to do and taking care of every need of ours they were wonderful. Definitely can’t wait to go back.
