Multiple mentions of hygiene issues (cafards/cockroaches, stained pillows, torn towels, mixed reports on cleanliness) warrant a below-target score.

Repeatedly highlighted as excellent: beachfront, direct access to best part of the beach, central and close to town/shops/pier with fantastic views.
Room Quality
7.6
Mixed feedback: some call rooms cozy and clean, while others report shower/pressure/no hot water, AC problems, and rooms not matching photos — moderately below target.
Amenities
8
Guests note good pool and beach access but frequent missing in-room items (no kettle, no hairdryer, small/no wet bar) and absence of a true on-site restaurant.
Value for Money
7.8
Several guests feel prices are high for the quality (noted 'a bit expensive' and island pricing effect), so value is seen as slightly below expectation.

More than expected.
Pros:

The location of the hotel was perfect. Everything about the hotel was excellent and just as one would like your stay to be. The staff was friendly, the food on the beach was great, the room was clean, and the hotel amenities were very nice. We decided to add another night to our stay.

There wasn't anything I didn't like.

Una vacanza quasi perfetta, se non fosse...
Pros:

La struttura ha una posizione fantastica. E' dotata di sdraio e ombrellone sulla spiaggia, e ha delle palme bellissime. Ha la possibilità di utilizzare a pagamento i serivizi di ristorazione, di massaggio.
La stanza è pultita, con serviette cambiate ogni giorno. Il personale molto cordiale e attento

Cons:

Le camere sono spartane. Anche la suite, che abbiamo preso per una notte, potrebbe essere curata di più: per quasi 600 euro ci aspettavamo un servizio più adeguato. Altra pecca è non includere la colazione nel paghetto notte.
Inoltre le camere non hanno neppure una bustina di the per una bevanda in camera. Una stanza per due persone ha un bicchiere solo epr l'acqua...
Insomma potrebbero migliorare di molto le attenzioni per i clienti.

100% recomendable
Pros:

Nuestra estancia en Holbox fue simplemente increíble. El hotel está en el centro y tiene una ubicación inmejorable, cerca de restaurantes, tiendas y de todo lo que necesitas para disfrutar de la isla.

Las vistas son preciosas, todo estaba impecablemente limpio y cuidado, y la habitación era perfecta. Además, tuvieron un detalle precioso con nosotros por nuestro aniversario: nos prepararon la habitación de una manera increíble y nos hizo muchísima ilusión. 🥰

Queremos dar las gracias de corazón a todo el equipo por su amabilidad, atención y por hacer que nuestra estancia fuera todavía más especial. Sin duda, nos llevamos un recuerdo precioso de Holbox y esperamos volver pronto. ¡Gracias por todo!

Cons:

Nada
