Absolutely excellent. Loved our stay and our gracious hosts, Jose and Maria.
Pros:

They served a lovely breakfast made to order. Fresh ingredients and the best hot coffee. The breakfast was served on their beautiful garden patio, in beautiful surroundings.
The hotel was lovely, and an excellent top deck to watch the sunsets from and a nice pool to cool off in after a hot afternoon. This is a very chill part of Holbox, away from the bustle of the little centro but just a few minutes away by golf cart taxi or bike!
The hosts/owners Jose and Maria were amazing, looking after us with arranging restaurant suggestions, shuttle tickets and transportation. They even rescued us when I needed a quick trip to the pharmacy, thank you again😊🙏

Cons:

We truly couldn’t find fault in anything!

Pros:

Jolie Plage a proximité. José sera toujours la pour vous pour quoique ce soit. L’eloignement de la ville en fait un lieu tres calme. La plage ou observer la bioluminescence n’est pas tres loin du logement.

Best stay in our Mexico trip
Pros:

The best stay in our Mexico trip, let me tell you why:
- Quiet room! We slept in until 10 am easily. And we could also darken the room (pretty rare in Mexico!)
- Great location! We rented some bikes and reached the island center within 10 minutes. But were far away to enjoy the peacefulness of the island.
- Amazing bed, nice view from the rooftop terrace and an amazing host, Jose, who literally went above and beyond for our comfort.

Cons:

Absolutely nothing - this felt like a second home.

Lovely stay on the far end of Holbox with friendly owners
Pros:

Very friendly owners and staff who couldn’t do enough to help us. Big room. Close to beach. Amazing view from the mirador. Lots of areas to sit and relax in

We had a lovely stay here and would recommend it if want a secluded stay away from town

Cons:

I think overall there were just a few things which make this not 5⭐️ as advertised on booking.com. Some of the finishings for example random bath mat, cheap feeling sheets but these are picky things

Super verblijf met zeer behulpzame en gastvrije hosts! Nog nooit zo welkom gevoeld als bij Jose en Mia.
Pros:

Gastvrijheid en behulpzaamheid van de hosts Jose en Mia. Ook het personeel was zeer attent vol. Een klein probleempje werd onmiddellijk opgelost.

Cons:

Jammer dat er naast de accommodatie gebouwd wordt.

Pros:

Wir waren vor kurzem 4 Nächte dort als Paar - uns hat es wirklich sehr sehr gut gefallen! Kleine gemütliche Anlage, sehr gute Lage bisschen abseits trotzdem erreicht man auch zu Fuß alles. Der Gastgeber ist super nett und hilfsbereit! Die Zimmer sind total gemütlich eingerichtet man fühlt sich wie zu Hause und sind auch sehr sauber.
Wir würden definitv immer wieder kommen.

Danke Jose!

Wonderful
Pros:

Great hosts (Mia and Jose) and other employees that really make you feel welcome, Very clean and serene hotel. The location was a surprise as the vibe around hotel is laid back and relaxing and beaches there are very nice compared to beaches closer to town.

Cons:

Nothing. There was a construction just in front of hotel but it didn’t affect our sleep as they started late.

Pros:

Our time at Atenea Holbox was great! The hosts are so friendly! They try to do everything for you!
The communication was awesome and the breakfast was delicious!
Our room had a lot of space, was really clean and the furniture is comfortable.
The accomodation is just a view steps away from the beach and it takes a nice 20 min walk to Holbox center.
We would highly recommend booking it!

Incredible host and service
Pros:

Host is incredibly caring and friendly. He goes out of his way to make sure his guests are comfortable. The rooms are big and nicely decorated. Plenty of drinking water, quality soaps, soft beach towels, lots of details that exceed the expectations. Only few steps to the beach snd very nice beach clubs. Punta Coco within a short distance.

Domacini su ljudi velikog srca
Pros:

Jose&Mia, Jose&Mia, Jose&Mia 🌸 Divni domacini, koji naprave sve da se osjecate kao da ste u hotelu sa 5*
Pravi primjer dobrog domacina. Ispunili su sve nase zelje (a bilo ih je)
Nama se svidjelo da smo dalje od centra, a blizu plaze, imali smo divan pogled na palme i plazu iz sobe.

Pros:

La verdad que me gustó prácticamente todo..es hermoso , la cama es la mas cómoda que he probado en mi vida y las vistas son espectaculares.
Pero lo más importante es el trato de Mia desde el momento de la llegada , te hace sentir super cómodo en todo momento.

Cons:

Por poner un único pero , solo decir que la televisión estaba rota y no funcionaba.
Pero la verdad quien viene a esta isla no es para ver la televisión jajaja.. solo que yo es una manía que tengo para dormirme.
