The staff at Zomay is great. They are helpful, informative, and do everything in their power to make the guests comfortable. This is a simple beach front stay. There aren’t many amenities, but with the proximity to the beach and central downtown there is no need for the extras. Their food and drinks were some of the best I tried compared to other hotels in the same area. I really enjoyed my stay there and I will be back.

My husband and I stayed at Zomay Hotel in Isla Holbox for 5 days and had a wonderful experience. The facility is beautiful, clean, and has such a relaxing island atmosphere. The gorgeous beach was absolutely stunning, and the beach bar was amazing — such a perfect spot to relax and enjoy the island vibes.

What truly made our stay special was the staff — they were absolutely amazing! Everyone was so friendly, welcoming, and attentive, and we loved that they referred to guests by name, which made the experience feel very personal.

Evening meals were scrumptious and served right on the beach, making sunset dinners an unforgettable experience.

The only small drawback is that the pool is not located directly on site, which may be inconvenient for some. However, it certainly didn’t take away from our overall experience.

We had a fantastic stay and would definitely return to Zomay Hotel on our next trip to Isla Holbox!

We had such a wonderful stay at Zomay in Holbox, and one of the highlights was seeing how happy our dog, Bruno, was the entire time. Being truly pet-friendly made all the difference — Bruno felt just as welcomed as we did.

A heartfelt thank you to the entire Zomay team for making us feel at home and for always taking such great care of us. Special thanks to Ricardo, who was always available, attentive, and ready to help; to Rodolfo, who made every experience at the restaurant and beach bar so enjoyable; and to Yoana at reception, whose warm welcome and kindness made our stay even more special.

If you want your pup to feel comfortable, welcomed, and enjoy one of the most beautiful beaches, bring them to Zomay Holbox.

We can’t wait to come back — see you again soon!

The staff is the best we have experienced on the island. Very attentive and helpful with anything we needed. The site manager went above and beyond for this our wedding arrangements. Even though we had a very small wedding with just close friends and family, he made it special. The Zomay team did a great job setting up the terrace where we had our ceremony overlooking the Gulf. It was way above our expectations.
Muchas gracias Zomay! Nosotros volveremos pronto!

The staff was amazing. The room was great. Very clean and comfortable. Only downside was the beach there is not nice at all. There is no effort to clean the seaweed or mess off the beachfront even though the property itself is beautiful. I would say if you are a person who isn’t interested in going in the water this is a great place but if you want to swim and enjoy the water. This isn’t the place. Also there is an Airbnb beside the hotel which was extremely noisy 2 nights of are stay until very late. Not within the hotels control of course. Bring ear plugs just in case.

Beachfront property. I was a solo traveler with a pet. Property states is pet friendly but pet can not be left in room at any time is beyond a restriction anf should be definitely noted instead of contact property for me information. Concierge is not available after 10 which should absolutely be told to all guests upon arrival which I wasn’t. Breakfast was the best part and sunset was nice. Extremely disappointed with my experience and hope my review saves you from the inconvenience I experienced.

The staff was friendly and helpful. The property needs repairs and updates. The sargasso was not cleaned on the beach and the water was dirty. They could use a mat at the door to the room to prevent tracking in sand. The beds were not very comfortable. The AC worked well and we had hot water. The breakfast was good and there were plenty of options. The location was close to downtown and not a far walk. Next time would stay on the other end of the island where the beaches are nicer.

The room was lovely and staff were super helpful and friendly! Me and my partner absolutely loved the walk through the garden to the beach front, where there is shaded spots and comfy recliners. Close enough to the centre of town, not so close that you can hear the street. Only thing to possibly note at time of review is there are building works going on in the site next door so the mornings can be loud. However, I still thoroughly enjoyed my stay here and would highly recommend.

This property was exactly what we were looking for in a Holbox hotel. Rustic looking, but higher end decor and amenities. Fresh water supplied in your room and refill ability right at the front desk, without charge. Sun cabanas were not crowded together like some other close properties. Great cocktails from the beach bar and a very nice sundown event with a live entertainer and full staff for cocktails and appetizers.
Speaking of appetizers, the spicy tuna sushi was some of the best I had ever had.
Cannot wait to come back to this property. Would highly recommend it for anyone that has not been to Holbox before as it is close to downtown shops and restaurants also.

The property is on the far South side of the city. We walked to virtually every other beachside resort and would argue that this is the best (all things considered). The manager Daniel is an honest and welcoming host. He added to our comfort level (our first time traveling in Mexico) and we'd recommend Zombay because of him. He's a good guy and an excellent host. The property is quiet and peaceful and in a perfect spot. The room was basic (everything is in Holbox) but the porch attached to the room was 'amazing' and the property is peaceful and clean and gives you that true island vibe. The beachfront bar is tiny but efficient. We'd recoupment this place to anyone visiting Isla Holbox for the first time.

Great location and property. The staff at this property is remarkable. Coco, Carmen and Daniela specifically took excellent care of us every day along with the kitchen staff, bar staff, maintenance and housekeeping. My only advice is to remove seaweed more often from the beach and be prepared to possibly not have hot water at times but this is México and these things happen. Other than that we had an excellent stay. Thank you Hotel Zomay.❤️

Zomay was a lovely place to stay, the staff was super accommodating and helpful, they had affordable tours and transfers.
We did go in rainy season which I would not recommend because the town does not have the infrastructure and gets flooded which makes it hard to enjoy. But Zomay was super helpful in navigating the rain and even offered us free drinks to apologize for it which they can’t control the weather lol !

Initially our AC didn’t work. Eventually they moved us to another room (a downgrade from bungalow to standard double). They never offered to reimburse the price difference. Later we requested it and they said they couldn’t reimburse us, but could credit us 2 pizzas and 4 drinks at the restaurant. Breakfast was supposed to be included, but was very limited on day when gas was broken. No offer to reimburse or credit lunch later.
Our new room had a light hanging solely by a cord and detached from the ceiling (dangerous and we hit our heads a few times but dealt with it because we didn’t want to move again). The bathroom had a rotting door to the outside merely secured by a small latch lock (any knowing person could easily get in). The shower was dirty, with sand on the walls and floor. One day there was a scorpion in the shower (probably got in via holes in bottom of rotting door). Safe was not mounted

One day I watched them clean our room from a far. The cleaner left the door open while she walked to another building to get new sheets and towels. Anyone could have come in and she let in mosquitoes.

They are not good about picking up the dog poop by the bar and on the walkway to rooms. The floor of the outdoor rinse showers are rotted and dangerous for little kids.

The restaurant staff were amazing. The food and drinks were excellent. The beach was clean and nice for swimming with little kids. Great place to watch sunset. Go there to swim and eat, but do not stay there.

The hotel was beautiful, and the grounds were well kept. We did run into a few issues during our 5 day stay. First issue was when going down to the included breakfast it was very long wait times just to even get a menu when only one other group was there most days.
Next issue would be while sitting on the beach random tourist will come into the beach chair areas and take over, we noticed if you didnt get a chair shortly after breakfast it would be difficult, also during our 5 day stay not once were we offered a menu for food or drinks while at the beach chairs. I appeared if you were wearing the hotels wristbands you didnt get offered the restaurants menu.
The beach bar with the swings was never opened during our stay, appeared to be renovating.

The property had just gone through a severe tropical storm. The first days the normal services were scattered and somewhat disjointed but the staff worked diligently to get things back to normal and were extremely attentive to our needs. Overall it was a great stay and by the end of the trip everything was back to normal. Vanessa was incredible at caring for our every need.

We loved the Zomay!

I came with a group of friends and we loved our stay at the Zomay! The staff was absolutely wonderful and the location was incredible. By far, the best beach and water to any hotel close to town. The drinks and food were fantastic and loved the vibe! Breakfast was also lovely and hearty. The views never got old…

The accommodations were basic/simple. My one suggestion to the hotel would be to replenish the towels (they have seen better days) offer better toiletries.

Otherwise, it was great!

Holbox is stunning and great if you just want to stay at the beach all day. The hotel itself is very barebones. This is not a kid friendly hotel and even if I had just come alone or with my husband I would have been pretty disappointed with the accommodations. The location is fantastic and if you are just looking for a place to rest your head, this will absolutely do. The travel to get to Holbox isn’t easy, so the expectation was that the hotel would be “worth it”. It wasn’t. Pros: The beach access is perfect, the hotel food and bar were great. Staff was kind. Cons: sleeping situation was tough, our room had trouble getting cleaned regularly and obviously the water situation is really tough.

The hotel itself is right on the beach and the beach is amazing. The hotel didn’t have many amenities, they didn’t even have a hairdryer. I asked and they literally only had 2 for the entire hotel. The food the hotel offers is very pricey and it was not good at all. After the first day we had to walk out to the plaza to eat Lunch and dinner because the food was not good. We only ate breakfast there because it was included not because of the quality. So if you go here for location then I guess it’s fine

I had never stayed in a hotel like this before. It was very, clean, neat, and a romantic setting. The only things I didn't like was that the misquitos were horrible, no tv, no radio/alarm clock and shower sprayed everywhere. The front desk and check in was nice and welcoming. The breakfast was good, along with the beautiful view while dinning.

Staff friendly. Room clean. The bathroom faucet was a conch shell instead of conventional faucet head. Quaint but it dispensed only a trickle of water. Water wise I guess. Loved that they have a filtered water dispenser near the front desk. In a place where you’re supposed to drink bottled water everywhere you go, it’s nice to have an eco friendly option and spare the planet from more plastic waste. I wish more hotels would do that in Mexico. The beachfront property is coveted and the beach bar is super fun.

Overall a good beach hotel. Some deferred maintenance and the kitchen supplies were a little lacking (limited glasses, no bottle opener/corkscrew or in room potable water . Easy to get sand on the floors so a couple of thin rugs or a doormat/foot bath to wipe feet are definitely needed . One bed was comfortable and one was terrible. Only a sheet provided on the beds but they provide blankets on request. Breakfast was decent and decent choices. Beach atmosphere was one of the best and not much seaweed when lots of other places were swamped with it. Would stay again but some simple improvements would go a long way !

Great staff, average hotel

Service was very nice, the staff was wonderful and accommodating, so, a great plus. The room; although I was told I was upgraded? it was very spartan and not what I would call \"safe\" (although in Holbox, no need to worry there!). As you can see from the pictures, there are no drawers or dresser, and the patio doors did not lock. And of course, the unsealed front door and patio doors. This is an average hotel complex in Holbox, adjacent hotels have sandier beaches, and the street entrance was a muddy pond our entire 6 day stay. Staff was great.

Nice affordable beachfront

Fun beachfront hotel at the far end of the hotel strip. Great place to watch the sunset and nice area to swim. Not as much on the main beach but also nice because it feels off the tourist strip a bit. A lot of younger people from the nearby hostel hanging out and great live music every night at the bar. The breakfast was excellent every morning and lovely grounds. Room had a sandy floor when we arrived and water did not work well for 2 days (cold shower first day and water stopped all together second day) Finally fixed by 3rd shower. No water in the room and very minimal but comfy bed. Reception was helpful with getting Covid tests in our room.

This property is amazing. Not too far from the epicenter of town, just a couple blocks down, but far enough to be a tiny bit quieter than the center. The staff is very helpful and they will accommodate most requests. They even got me a professional massage in my room and set the ambience. Restaurant and bar staff were very nice and attentive. Wifi is spotty, signal for phone is very low but that is the entire island. Just in case you want a workcation. All in all was very happy with our stay! Thank you Zomay!

Everything you hope for in an island hotel. View of the water through palm trees and palapas as we walked to our room. The room was clean, spacious and plenty of area to place our bags without it feeling crowded. The beds are comfortable and it is quiet at night.

The staff is so warm and amazing. They are helpful and friendly but not constantly bugging you either when you are relaxing in the palapas. The perfect amount of attention.

The food at the restaurant was delicious and the presentations are pretty, too. Even as a vegetarian I had enough choice to make me happy. The veggie rolls were really yummy and the rest of the sushi looked really good, too.

The beach is clean and lovely. It is an easy walk down the beach to get to the center of town. The best part was the entertainment that happened in the afternoons & evenings as people started to gather to see the sunset. We had an amazing drumming band one night and acrobats another day. I would definitely come back again as we had a wonderful time here.

Reserved a bungalow for the weekend. Each has its own rooftop patio area for extending the conversations under the stars. Beautiful beach property.. many locals came to beach side bar to watch the perfect sunset from the property.
Lush palm trees overhead provided ample shade, sandy beach extends all through the property. Check in was casual and friendly, checkout was the same. Chill and relaxed space, very soothing.
Pinto Coco and bioluminescence were 10 min golf cart ride away.
We will be back and highly recommend for those look g to enjoy beach calm without tech interruptions.

I wish I could give this place 4.5 stars, but that isn't an option. It only loses 0.5 points because of noise level. Constant, loud construction going on early in the morning so you can‘t sleep in, plus can hear everything in rooms next door. Also, no door tags for housekeeping vs do not disturb, so housekeeping staff kept knocking on the door every day to inquire while we were in there. Having said the above, I will stay there again in a heartbeat. Everything else was a treat! Th staff if fantastic- the only time I have experienced island people moving with urgency. Clean hotel, great and spacious room, beautiful beach, excellent location, great beach bar with the best view of the sunset. Bring earplugs to sleep because it is worth it.

Best Place in holbox hands down

Definitely the best place to stay in Holbox. Only downside was the lack of a swimming pool, however, the place itself is located strategically close to downtown but far enough (2 blocks) so you won't get any noise and have a peaceful night sleep. Our room was recently being renovated, but we didn't expect it to be like that, so it was no problem, we had a nice and large terrace with a hammock and a table with 2 chairs with a newly built tub, which wasn't working because it had just been installed. I would stay here in a heartbeat

A perfect combination, a little of everything

The hotel has great location, close to the center but not inside of it. Front beach with a nice view of the ocean, and in the end of one of the small concrete walls, so you feel with less neighbors.

You could walk for 3 km to the left to the Coco's bay or 6km to the right to the sand bar, chill at the beach, take pictures of there hamacas on the water andhave a cocktail at sunset. Restaurant and bar service right on the beach beds with great view, with load music. The beach bar can get busy on the afternoons.

The rooms are small, but perfect. A/C, small fridge, security box, slow internet (that could be a good thing), hotel water but can run slow and really nicely decorated. Friendly staff and good breakfast.

I could definitely stay here again, not too fancy or snob, and super relax.

Great vibe

We had a fantastic time at Zomay and would highly recommend it. The staff were absolutely lovely and very accommodating throughout our stay. The hotel has a great vibe and is one of the most popular spots on the beach with people passing by due to the fantastic bar. In particular Eduardo who makes the best cocktails on the island! It also has one of the best spots to watch the sunset! The rooms are simple in style, my only qualm would be that they could be better lit (we only had a tiny window so required more lights in the room). That being said we had a brilliant stay!

Quiet retreat on the beach, but rustic

Pros: Right on beach. On far west end of beach, so less through traffic.Very quiet at night. Good lighting in bungalow. Cute clean bungalow. Beds and maid service are good. Few bugs get inside. Beautiful, well tended common area with hammocks. Beach is calm, clean (not all are), and amazing. Beach bar on your doorstep (if you want to meet others not staying at hotel). Gathering place to watch sunset for a crowd every evening.

Cons: I was not given the room I booked and paid for through Expedia. I booked the larger beachside bungalow. It was occupied when I arrived by a larger party. They put us in the smaller bungalow set back from the beach. They offered no apology, explanation, or compensation. They said since I booked through Expedia there was nothing they could do. Accomodation was fine, but I paid a premium for it. Rooms here are a bit expensive for what you get. There are no restaurant services. No vending machines. Not even a morning coffee to roll you out onto the beach. Nearest restaurant one block away for breakfast. No hot water either. Not enough beach chair cushions to go around. Minor stuff, but I expect these things for the price. Beach gets crowded late afternoon with others not staying there but using beach bar. It is a popular and lively bar, which is not really a con.

Summary: This place has a niche in the middle. Better and quieter than staying in town, but not nearly as plush and appointed as Hotel Mawimbi or Casa de lasTortugas on eastern end of beach

What could have used improvment-
Ceiling fan in the room was our of order, the lamp was hanging by conduit alone, which definitely was third world construction. I hear several cocounts fall nearby, which made me wonder about the safety of walking under them
