Walking distance from the beach (great sunset), this secluded, well designed and well kept little hotel is the best to relax and enjoy a serene stay. Good choice of background music throughout the day, comfortable rooms, awesome pool, great service by attentive and warm and welcoming staff. You don't pick this place if you want to be near everything. You choose this place because you like a harmonious and tranquil environment after a day of activities. Walking to the main part of the town is 30 minutes, which can be done walking on the beach at low tide, it is awesome. You can also bike if you want to get anywhere faster, but what is a vacation if not taking your time to discover?

I loved this property, beautiful design, clean, friendly and welcoming staff. It’s a short walk from a beach that looks wild - which I appreciated. The staff was friendly and helpful. Also, unlike the properties downtown that blast loud music that no human should be exposed to-you could actually get good sleep at this hotel as it’s in a peaceful location.

If you want to relax, just book this amazing unique boutique hotel. From the moment you arrive you can switch off and enjoy the hospitality of Alberto and Dani. If you want a big, corporate, soulless hotel, keep on looking and go elsewhere. The rooms and outside space join seamlessly and you are at one with the nature that lives there. The hotel is about a 25 minute walk to the town centre, or you can grab an easily arranged taxi, that will take 5/10 mins. There is a small shop less than 5 mins walk from El Nido and there are good restaurants about 15 mins walk away Alberto makes amazing fresh pasta meals daily that you can grab for lunch of evening meal, along with a wine or beer. The hosts are great for asking for recommendations and bikes are available to hire to explore further. We would thoroughly recommend this hidden gem to anyone who wants to get away from it all. We stayed 14 nights and could of stayed another 14!

l Nido is a magical little sanctuary on the peaceful end of Holbox — the kind of place that makes you accidentally start browsing “how to move to Mexico permanently” listings after day two. 🌴✨ Alberto, Omar, and the entire staff make you feel genuinely at home from the moment you arrive. Warm, welcoming, helpful, and somehow always calm no matter how many sandy, tourists are wandering around asking for another taxi or more ice. 😂 The highlights: ☀️ Gorgeous pool + hammock area that feels like a hidden jungle oasis 🌿 Beautifully designed rooms with excellent AC and seriously comfy beds 🚲 Super easy to arrange taxis, bike rentals, and tours 🌺 Lush gardens everywhere that make the whole property feel peaceful and chic 🌅 Perfect location near the island’s best sunsets, flamingos, and quieter beaches — while still only about a 10-minute bike ride into town A couple things to note: 🧊 No mini fridge or ice machine on-site, so you may become emotionally attached to asking staff for ice multiple times a day 🍳 Breakfast is good, fresh, and included — though it does become a tinch repetitive If you want loud beach clubs and chaos, stay in town. If you want peaceful mornings, beautiful design, amazing staff, and the feeling that your nervous system just got a factory reset… El Nido is absolutely your spot. 💛

The hotel itself is beautiful with a lovely breakfast and clean cool with hammocks. The location of the hotel however it is in the jungle area so walking distance to the centre of town can be tricky. Also, they didn’t have the bicycles on hand so we had to take taxis. However, if you were looking for solitude, it is very close to an amazing beach that doesn’t have lots of people which can be worth it. Sadly, we went during mosquito season so you have to be in your hotel by 7 PM. Otherwise you will be eaten alive.
