“Very well maintained property, inside the rooms , around the hotel grounds and the beach itself. It’s a quiet place , a bit off centre , and yet a short walk to everything : shopping , restaurants, beach bar. During our stay it had the cleanest beach around. The only reason it’s not 5 star for me is the staff at checkout. Very inflexible and wasn’t able to get us a taxi on time, and not one bit worried about the situation and the possibility that we could miss our ferry and arrive late at the airport.”
“We were torn between staying here and at AWA, and I’m very glad we chose Casa Takywara. Holbox is a rustic place, and when it comes to hotels, it doesn’t get more rustic than this - Casa Takywara is literally on the beach, with the sand separating the different parts of the hotel. That said, we stayed in the penthouse room and it was fantastic - easily up to 5-star standards. The location is also great, just a 10-minute walk to the centre.”
“Stayed for 5 nights and it was exactly what we wanted. A lovely spacious room with 2 double beds, a little kitchen and a nice modern bathroom. Right on the beach - no need for shoes just walk barefoot. A little further from the main town for bars and restaurants so you’ve got a 10–5 minute walk but we didn’t mind and you can mostly walk along the beach. It is a bit more simple and local feeling, which is exactly what we liked about it, but if you’re looking for modern luxury this probably isn’t for you. Breakfast is simple but perfectly nice.”
“Stayed here for 4 nights during low season and at the tail end of hurricane/rainy season. The staff were all really lovely and helpful. Fantastic rooms, really stylish and clean. I felt very comfortable hanging out in my room, and in the hammock on the terrace when It was raining. When it was sunny - it was about a 90 second walk from my room to the beach loungers! I opted for the in-house breakfast outside my room which was lovely and huge portions, but the same every day.”
“Perfect place to stay on Holbox! Located right on the beach (literally a few steps), you can walk to the centre of the island in around 15 minutes. The staff are super helpful, and the setting is so peaceful. Our room was very spacious and clean, highly recommend staying here!”
“Excellent little hotel. I'm in my mid-40's so not interested in the part lifestyle anymore. This hotel is far enough away from the main centre that it's really quiet but still close enough that it's a 10-15 minute walk to the centre for the shops and restaurants whilst also having so excellent (and low key) restaurants and bars within 2 blocks if you want to avoid the centre. Having 6 rooms in total the hotel feels more like a guest house than a hotel and the beach in front of the hotel must be one of the best segments of the beach as it's nice and wide with minimal seaweed. Other hotels barely have a beach in front of if they do it's covered in smelly seaweed.”
