Decided to splurge and stay for two nights at El Nido. It was absolutely beautiful and peaceful. It is in a very quiet spot (we did have to traverse a few big puddles to get there after the big flood the week before) but soooooo worth it. Although off the beaten path there were some accessible restaraunts a short walk up the beach. Breakfast was tasty, staff friendly, drinks from the bar good! Overall would highly recommend! Was the highlight of our trip to Mexico. Will dream of our return one day!

Super hôtel intimiste à 5 min à pied d’une des plus belles plages de l’île. Les chambres sont super, la piscine aussi et le personnel attentionné. L’hôtel est très tranquille dans un havre de paix , parfait pour visiter Holbox quelques jours en toute tranquillité.

I loved this property, beautiful design, clean, friendly and welcoming staff. It’s a short walk from a beach that looks wild - which I appreciated. The staff was friendly and helpful. Also, unlike the properties downtown that blast loud music that no human should be exposed to-you could actually get good sleep at this hotel as it’s in a peaceful location.

Stayed at El Nido for 7 nights on our first trip to Holbox. Chose this hotel as we wanted a relaxing a**osphere 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!!

C’est un havre de paix. À deux pas de la plage, tout prêt de Playa Punto Cocos. Le lieu est plein de charme, l’accueil chaleureux, le petit déjeuner délicieux ! La piscine est au top. Les échanges avec l’ensemble du personnel sont très agréable.

El Nido - meaning 'the nest' in Spanish - couldn't be a more fitting name for this hotel and our entire stay! Upon entering the lobby and check-in area, we were stunned at the thoughtful design, artful décor and lush landscaping - it felt like we had stepped into another, more peaceful place. Our second floor room came with a balcony (and seating) perfect for morning coffee or catching glimpses of the ocean and beach, which is just a short 5 minute walk away. Our room was plenty spacious for two people, always clean and provided with bottled water - our own little nest after a day in the sunshine. During our week-long stay, Isla Holbox experienced an intense windstorm and some flooding, especially in the main part of town also resulting in many area hotels losing power. That was not the case at El Nido, due to their solar power and other alternative (eco) power options. Even though we couldn't get into town as easily with islands' roads partially flooded, we were perfectly happy to relax at the pool and continue enjoying fresh, delicious food from the hotel restaurant & bar! Note - the hotel restaurant is a separate business entity and is cash only. The hotel itself does accept cards, i.e. for check-in. We did plenty of research before visiting Isla Holbox and were hopeful that Hotel El Nido was going to be a most relaxing, peaceful and special getaway - we were not disappointed! Every one of the hotel staff were warm, welcoming, friendly, and we enjoyed interacting with them immensely! They truly helped make our stay memorable!

The Hotel El Nido Holbox is an absolute gem. Its roughly a 20min. drive by can-am taxi from the Holbox ferry port. The roads are not paved, and that is ok and to be expected on an island. The beaches (playa) are absolutely pristine and also an easy way to walk into town from El Nido. It cannot be overstated how friendly, welcoming and accommodating the hotel staff are. Guests should know this facility operates in a environmentally sustainable way: they have bio-digesting toilets and run power both on solar and on grid. This is a huge benefit to guests, simply as the island's power can sometimes vary and during tropical storms can be off for hours. During our stay, a 2-day storm event disrupted power to the island. The Hotel El Nido was fully operable, was serving fresh, locally sourced dishes, catering to guests' needs and had Wi-Fi. If you are travelling to Holbox, we recommend you do the research before you come. The most important tips are: Bring plenty of cash. Although USD are generally accepted, Pesos are easiest for conversion. The hotel and kitchen are separate businesses and kitchen and bar do not accept credit - Cash only. There are really a handful of cash machines and 1-2 banks on the island with limited hours. The location of the Hotel El Nido is not for guests who want the buzz of the town; it's quiet, and for those who are looking for more peace, to hear the beach, to listen to the birds of the island and occasionally step into town. Average taxi cost one-way is 300-400 pesos. You can also charter a boat to run the the playa into into town and that will likely run 150-200 USD (not recommended). If you are capable of walking and enjoy interacting with the beach, town is an easy 30-minute walk. Be aware of low-mid-high tide time tables to make your walk more enjoyable. In closing, we highly recommend this hotel. Having walked the beach and inspected several of the hospitality properties north of Holbox proper and south of Holbox, this is one of the finest. We already are planning our next visit to El Nido.

We booked a balcony room, but upon initially seeing it we felt it lacked some basic hotel amenities I would expect for the price, including a full length mirror, fridge and desk w/chair. The staff were great at relocating us to a patio room that had the above amenities (except the fridge).
We unfortunately arrived to rain storms, and Holbox isn’t well equipped for this type of weather. Nearly every road in the town flooded making travel around the island very difficult and expensive. El Nido is around a 25min walk into the centre of town but with the flooding, the walk was much more difficult and taxis were reluctant/refused to take us to and from the hotel.
Another qualm was the food. Whilst breakfast was good, we had lunch there. We felt it was below average and very expensive for what it was. We previously ate at Nomad (a 15min walk) where the food was far superior and more affordable.
My final issue is with their payment facilities, they only accepted cash, whilst Holbox has a reputation for cash only, we actually found that every other restaurant or beach club we visited accepted cards. The cash only policy is out-dated.
The review might sound harsh, but let me assure you that every other element of our stay was great. The staff were helpful and kind, the rooms cleanliness was spotless and pool facilities were great. We also appreciated the quietness and privacy of our room.
A couple improvements could make El Nido an exceptional stay.
