I thought Mawimbi was just about perfect. The rooms were beautiful, cozy and completely clean. Plenty of hot water, and lovely organic soaps and shampoos in the bathroom.

My husband & I wanted to check out Isla Holbox for one night. I am so happy we chose Mawimbi. It is just beautiful. It's located a short walk from the ferry dock (if you have a lot of baggage, hire the golf cart taxi - it will be worth it). The grounds & landscaping made me feel like I... More

Our room was very clean and cozy. The restaurant had great food. We really enjoyed the night they grilled fish over an open flame right on the beach. The drinks were great and the staff was wonderful. The owner was very nice and helpful. Our breakfast was included with our stay. More
