*ABOUT HOLBOX: Holbox Island is a true rustic paradise, where nature remains the star. The island’s sandy streets and unspoiled beaches are carefully preserved to maintain their natural beauty. Unlike other destinations that clear sargassum or restrict beach access, Holbox embraces its wild side, offering open and public shores for all to enjoy.
The island’s character shifts with the seasons. During the rainy season, puddles can form along the sandy roads, adding to its laid-back, rustic charm.
Yum Balam’s secluded location away from the lively town center enhances its peaceful atmosphere, though it’s a good idea to plan your transportation in advance to fully enjoy the tranquility.
*PET-FRIENDLY POLICY: We welcome your pets! Please follow these guidelines to ensure a great stay for everyone:
- Clean up after your pet and dispose of waste properly.
- Pets must not be left unattended in the unit or terrace.
- Ensure pets do not disturb other guests.
- Owners are responsible for any damages caused by their pets.
- A pet fee is charged to cover the extra cleaning needed due to the beach environment. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation!
