Logement propre et fonctionnel.
Inconvénients de son avantage d’être loin du cœur de la ville lors des inondations des rues.
Nuisance sonore par un bar ou restaurant à proximité.

Tout était parfait !
Axel le propriétaire est super, plein de bons conseils et très attentionné.
L’emplacement est idéal à 2 minutes de la plage et 5 min du centre-ville mais au calme !
La chambre est très propre et joliment décorée et les équipements sont top (cafetière, hamac, terrasse, climatisation).
Vous pouvez réserver sans hésiter !

It wasn’t downtown but close enough to walk. Downtown gets lively at night, so good to be in a little seclusion. It’s also right around the corner from the beach in a section that isn’t super crowded. Great to go take a swim and come back. The room was spacious and had great AC and good high powered ceiling fan. Each day it was cleaned by a nice lady. Was excellent having a frig to keep drinks cold and put takeaway food. Lastly, the WiFi worked great!
***Not fault of the property, but when it rains, the city becomes a swamp, so prepare. Also, again no fault of the property, but expect American prices in holbox. That was a shock for me after spending time in other parts of Mexico.

Absolutely amazing stay! I wish we could have stayed longer - it was a perfect location 1 min from beach and 7min walk into town , which was ideal as it was lovely and quiet. The host Alex was so kind, the cleaning lady was exceptional and cleaned the room immaculately daily. The decor was gorgeous - very Mexican, colourful and bright. And they had a great roof top to relax and drink wine on. It was the perfect island getaway! Thank you so much.
Nothing. Everything was beyond expectations!

Very cutely decorated hotel with a lot of attention to details. Super friendly and helpful host and great location.
A lot of mosquitoes especially at the entrance - but it’s a problem island wide, so bring repellent!
3.5 / 5.0
The room is big and very nicely decorated.
Good shower and bed is big and comfortable.
You also have access to a good rooftop terrace from where you can watch the sunset.
The swimming pool is big enough if you want to relax after a day at the beach.
The owner is nice and gave us useful information on the island.
No A/C so you need to sleep with the windows open for air which is can get quite noisy due to the street near by.
There are also no blinds in the room so be prepared to get woken up very early in the morning.
4.0 / 5.0
loved the quiet location for good night sleep(10min walk into center), we had a big spacious room on ground floor with our own little porch, cute colorful design, rooftop view is amazing, perfect for people who want some quiet time but still walkable distance to center
important: NO breakfast available!! we booked this because of the great reviews about the breakfast but this option doesn’t exist anymore!!! you have to go into center in the heat to have your coffee in the morning making it less comfortable if you’re not a morning person…

very friendly and helpful owner. good location, close to the beach and also close to the centre
be aware that there is no breakfast at the casa anymore, but you’re close to many good breakfast restaurants

such a cute hotel, beautifully decorated, lovely little courtyard area, nice rooftop, large rooms with huge beds. good location as a little out from the main restaurant area so very quiet
4.0 / 5.0
Lovely spacious room, with lots of delicate and fun design touches. Looked exactly like the photos. Terrace space was also beautiful - a great spot for relaxing and catching the sunrise too. Nice spacious and very hot shower and v good wifi. Was a 10 min walk from the centre of Holbox, felt incredibly safe as a solo female traveller walking home along the beach at night, and it was nice to stay somewhere quieter/less touristy. Owners were very nice. I had one night at dinner and loved the meal Roberta made.
The owners left for most of my stay, which meant there was no breakfast which was a big inconvenience as I had to find places nearby. A lot of construction in the day during my stay too, and never saw the pool was never running whilst I was there although I did not require it as the beach is literally 2 minutes walk away.

The location of the hotel is nearby city center, but it is quiet place. The main beach is 10min of walk. The breakfasts and dinners are absolutely delicious and we totally recommend it. They are served on the terrace on the rooftop of hotel, ideal place to catch sunrise and sunset.
Everything was great.

Great place - a bit away from the center which gives a nice and quiet sleepy. Super friendly hosts, delicious breakfast on their rooftop, fast internet (for an island)! I would definitely come back!
all perfect
3.5 / 5.0
Nice rooftop terrace.
There were a lot of mosquitos. It would be nice if there were mosquito nets on the bed.
Unfortunately the restaurant was closed when we were there.
The pool doesn’t look inviting, we haven’t used it and saw no one else using it either.

The breakfast is amazing thanks to Roberta who is an amazing chef! She also makes amazing homemade pasta always using the freshest ingredients. The rooms were cleaned every day making it super nice to come back to.
Nothing!

Large, clean and beautifully decorated rooms. Amazing homemade food at the rooftop restaurant that’s fairly priced. A short walk away from the beach. Very helpful and nice hosts.

Nice host, beautiful and very clean room. Loved the general ambiance. Roberta is an excellent chef and we recommend having one of her amazing dishes while looking at the sunset from the rooftop.

We had a great time at Casa Vainilla; the apartments are located right next to a very beautiful and not too crowded beach, and you can walk to the center of the island in a few minutes. The rooms are quiet big and comfortable with a spacious bathroom, very nice interior design (very colourful and island vibe). Roberta and Alex are very kind and helpful, and the best thing was the home made food of Roberta, it was the best Italian food we ever had! We were very happy we stayed in Casa Vainilla, thank you Roberta and Alex for your kindness and good care!

This place is amazing! Very nice people, super clean, big rooms with friendly atmosphere. The absolute highlight is the food (breakfast&dinner)! Roberta Is your chef - she is from Italy an makes the best fettuccine and lasagne and tiramisu. All ingredients are fresh and the pasta is homemade. She puts so much love and passion in her food, you really can taste it! But also the breakfast was just amazing! I really can recommend this place for people who appreciate good food and a nice atmosphere. We just loved it! Thank you for the great time!

The owners are super kind and helpful. The food is amazing! The owners prepare the food themselves, even the pasta! The place itself was very clean and cosy. I really enjoyed the location as well! Not in the city center so it was very quiet. And only a 10 minutes walk away from the center. 2 min walk away from the beach!

This amazing small hotel is so charming and warm, that I would ever recommend it to stay there. Roberta and her husband are super helpful and nice people, the hotel is in a quiet area of the island and with lovely furnished big rooms. Robertas pasta and her dishes are super delicious, with a nice mixture of Carribean and Italian cuisine. Thanks for everything!

Staff is very friendly and smiling.
The Room was big and clean
Unfortunately breakfast was not available during the stay ( best places to back up are in the town - 10mn walk)
It’s pricey, I suppose that’s everywhere in Holbox since it’s now a very touristic island.
4.5 / 5.0
close to the beach. lovely restaurant on the beach 2 minutes walk. the people were so welcoming. loved the room. Holbox is just so different to any other place I have been. it has a magic and a mystery of its own
it was a 10 minute walk to the town but I think that that was an advantage too. I loved the area and it was so close to the beach. it was beautiful
5.0 / 5.0
amazing hosts, very friendly atmosphere. Roberta is an amazing chef, we didn’t want to eat anywhere else. Nice spacious and clean room, decorated with love and personal touches. quiet location close the beach, but a bit further to the town centre
Roads in Holbox get very muddy in rain, but that’s a general comment
3.5 / 5.0
Hammock in the room 🙂
Nice accommodation and good tipps from the owner.
Close to the beach (5 minute walk, about 500 m). Unfortunately when we have been there while the beach was full of seagras and crowded. Generally quite expensive island, comparable to Tulum.
No AC and no hot water (but warm).
Very complicated to find and to get there. No signs or hints that you've found the place.
Complicated start, but in the end everything went well.
Take a taxi, even if it seems just a short way! Streets are not made for walking. Everywhere streets are flooded and beach buggys cross by. Generally I would not recommend the Holbox island in high season.
5.0 / 5.0
the room is super big, clean and well-thought decorated. the owner, Roberta is the best chef in the island and cooks amazing breakfasts (not included but worth the price 100%).
