Che Holbox Hostel & Bar Adults Only has a seasonal outdoor swimming pool, garden, a shared lounge and terrace in Holbox Island.

Party hostel too noisy. Bathroom outside of the room and not clean enough. My locker in the room was broken and they didn’t fix it. But still a really nice experience, many social activities in the hostel. If you are looking for chilling then it’s probably not the right hostel for you but to socialise and party it’s definitely the best place.

Situated in Holbox Island and with Playa Holbox reachable within 1.4 km, Kin Hostal and Camping features concierge services, rooms, a garden, free WiFi throughout the property and a terrace.

Very cosy tent! I slept very well there even though there's racoons running around at night so don't get scared xD There's nice area just to chill or socialise with others. The staff was friendly. I didn't feel unsafe in my little tent as a solo traveller so all good.

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Chris and the hostel team are super warm and welcoming, informative and generous. Great location with lots of lovely art, plants, adorable kitten and dog and outdoor seating. It has a very chill and inclusive vibe and I was relieved to find a well stocked kitchen which I don't encounter very often these days! Very affordable and worth a visit. Thanks for the safe space guys.

    Staff was really nice and friendly. The hostel room was really clean, nice and spacious. Both kitchens were clean and well equipped. Great location only a 5-10min walk from the beach!

    Barbara has my heart, she was so kind. She does incredible in-water-massages, you have to try it, never felt so calm after a massage. She also took us to Punta Mosquito for sunset and did a Mate class, loved it. As well as all of the other staff/volunteers, Karol, Noë, Pedro, Fede, Flo, I felt so safe and welcomed during the entire stay, even extended for one night. The rooms were clean and breakfast in the morning was amazing. The location of the hostel is unbeatable, 1 min walk to the beach. I will definitely come back one day!

    One of the best hostels I've been to. Everything was perfect - the location, the staff, the vibe. The common area with hammocks and benches where the guests can relax gives the hostel a very homely feel. There were activities planned almost every day. Jen is a lovely person, very friendly and accommodating. She also provided a lot of suggestions on places to eat out. The whole staff was very friendly. Highly recommended place for anyone who's visiting Holbox. Muchas gracias Jen, Fede, Flow, Mica, Madou, Alice por todo.

    Dream place! Great location a few meters away from the beach and the main square. Equipment-wise it has everything you need, from a fully furnished kitchen up to many bathrooms. And all super clean But what makes this place unique are the people - the most welcoming hostel I ever stayed at, making me change my whole plan across Yucatan by keeping extending my stay here :)

    Great location, friendly staff, comfortable rooms. The common area was less social (most people chilled there to try to get some WiFi that is quite bad in Holbox in general), but it was easy to meet new people at the daily activities that the hostel offers. Tribu has a public bar with live music, jam sessions, salsa lessons, etc. It’s one of places to go at night in Holbox, but the drinks aren’t budget-friendly.
