"Pros: Great location." ~Amelia

"Pros: Wow! Where to start. Casa Las Turtugas is an absolute paradise! We loved every moment of our stay in Isla Holbox. Whilst it requires a considerable effort to reach Holbox (Car, Plane, Car, Ferry, Golf Buggy!), it is certainly worth it! From the moment we arrived the hotel staff were extremely welcoming and friendly. Our room, Orquidea, was on the top floor with a fantastic sea/sunset view! And the plunge pool was the cherry on the icing on the cake! The hotel is so well designed, and I would say perfectly situated in Holbox - a five minute walk from the main part of town, and many bars, restaurants and shops. We tried two of the hotel's restaurants - Mandarina and Luuma - both were very good and reasonably priced for the quality of the food. The grounds and gardens are stunning. And the beach is just perfect - fine white sand and a shallow warm sea - and hardly any seaweed! Many good bars and restaurants literally a two minute walk along the beach either way. The beach area of the hotel is stunning - think plenty of palm trees, sun loungers, a fire-pit, tables and chairs and all-day bar service! Breakfast was included and very good - bread/pastries/fruit bowls + main, served directly on the beach in a beautiful seating area, or in the bar just back from the beach. When compared to Tulum, Holbox is much small and more charming. But there is enough going on to keep you busy for at least ten days! And the beach is much more accessible and affordable than Tulum. And the place generally feels quieter and safer. Getting around is easy, and we mostly walked the sandy streets of restaurants, bars and shops. You can also hire a golf buggy, or grab a special Holbox taxi if you want to travel further afield to either end of the island - Punto Cocos or Playa Mosquito - both worth a visit. All in all I think probably our best ever holiday. The hotel, setting, people and whole Holbox experience is something really special. We will see you again soon! Cons: Nothing too much to say here. The only thing I think the hotel could consider is tea/coffee making facilities in the room and perhaps a small fridge. But I will use the rest of this space to add a few recommendations around Holbox: Restaurants: Big Fish, Basico, PiedraSanta, Paradoor33, Tacomoquieras, Painapol, Quartieri and a great choice of street food! Overall a good selection of upmarket dining and cheap, good quality street food options. Trips: Mangrove Sunrise Kayak Tour (crocodile spotting!), Playa Mosquito - walk along the sandbank, Punto Cocos - sunset. Bars: Hot Corner. What a place. Music and Salsa dancing in the street every night. Great fun people watching. La Anemona - great Margarita's just around the corner from Hot Corner. Beach Bars - Capitan Capitan, Raices, Bikini Bottom. All good and reasonably priced! Ice Cream: La Gelateria de Holbox - a regular nightly stop! Hire a Golf Buggy - great fun." ~Mark
