Pros:

Sa plage privée, les 4 piscines réparties dans l hôtel, le bar de plage qui proposent d excellents cocktails. Le restaurant était également très bien. Je recommande de louer des vélos car à 25 minutes du centre ville mais c est faisable à pied

Cons:

Les chambres ne sont pas très grandes. Un peu loin du centre ville. Dommage que les chambres n aient pas de lits king size.

Pros:

La ubicación y el desayuno

Cons:

La habitación era muy pequeña y olía a humedad. Relación calidad precio baja. La sección de playa frente al beach club no es la mejor (muchas rocas en el agua)

Eccellente
Pros:

Stanza perfetta (114). Da 9 stelle e non da 10 per il bagno. Peccato perché con uno specchio diverso ed uno scaldabagno un po’ più grande sarebbe da 10 stelle

Cons:

Mare non meraviglioso davanti l’hotel. Con una passeggiata di 15 min si raggiunge però punta coco dove il mare è meraviglioso.

Pros:

Location was excellent on the seafront. All staff helpful

Cons:

Very basic amenities. Nothing to do when raining. TV nit logged onto internet, no space fir comfortable seating. No tea or coffee making facilities in the room. Bathroom nit small but layout made it cramped. Couldn't reach the wardrobe area if someone was using the sink fir example.

Pros:

Wir hatten ein Zimmer mit Meerblick, welches schön war. Genau deswegen haben wir dieses Hotel gebucht. Es gab diverse Restaurants in der Nähe. Um 22 Uhr wurde pünktlich die Musik vom Beachclub ausgemacht und dann war es herrlich ruhig.

Cons:

Die permanante Musik vom Beachclub. Die Balkonstühle waren nicht wirklich bequem. Happy Hour galt nur für gewisse Cocktails (auf Tequila-Basis). Frühstück war ausserhalb besser. Insgesamt ist es zwar ein schönes Hotel, war aber nicht das was wir uns vorgestellt hatten. Preis-Leistung war unseres Erachtens nicht stimmig.

Pros:

The king room with sea view was amazing, with comfortable mattress and well decorated (however, ask to be at level 2 or 3 as the level 1 has the balcony straight in front of the restaurant tables so it doesn’t feel very private).
Staff were very friendly and accommodating.

Cons:

The hotel is not on the best beach of Holbox.
It’s a nice and quiet beach with sunbeds, but there was concrete blocks and lots of rocks in the water that made swimming not super enjoyable.

Pros:

Très bel emplacement. Superbe vue.

Cons:

Pas de chaise ni de petite table dans la chambre. Manque d'éclairage. Lit trop petit. Petit déjeuner continental un peu léger ! L'insistance des serveurs pour le pourboire.

Catastrophique !!
Pros:

Pas grand chose honnêtement.

Cons:

À nos amis français, fuyez !

- personnel désagréable au possible, arnaqueur, et au bar/resto ne prennent pas la commande en dessous de 10€. Obliger de venir les voir 3 ou 4 fois !!

- chambre minuscule avec des odeurs d’égouts, béton sale et brut au sol, et lit extra dur. J’ai fait bcp d’hôtel au Mexique, et c’était sans doute le pire, et de loins.

- nourriture exécrable, cher et mal cuisiné. J’ai été malade dès le second jour.

- Hôtel loin du centre névralgique de l’île, quartier en travaux, la journée c’est le bruit des scies et des marteaux piqueur au programme ! Sympa non ?

- l’eau de la piscine est trouble. La plage est bourré de sargasse, et des cubes de bétons enfouies sous l’eau. On s’y fait mal quand on y prend un bain. Quand je vous disais que rien n’allait .

Bref, il y a bien mieux au même prix dans les environ.
