Nômade Temple Holbox

Depending on what you expect you will have a different experience. We loved the hotel. The rooms were very comfortable and pretty decorated. The outdoor shower and bathtub were awesome. And the service we got was impeccable. We were regularly visited by a lizard which was a nice surprise. If you are not into nature or can't handle animals Nomade will also be nothing for you. We also enjoyed the restaurant and food they served. Prices are a bit high for Mexico but about equivalent to similar restaurants and "fair". They tell you before that there is a service charge so all pretty transparent. Would come again.

If you are looking for a tranquil island getaway with a focus on wellness, delicious food, and connection to nature - Nomade Holbox is it. Every staff member we encountered was incredibly kind and accommodating which amplified the peaceful nature of our stay. Laura, the wellness coordinator, was able to assist us in sessions that would be beneficial based on our needs once we arrived. All of the sessions we participated in were well-crafted and soothing. The food and drink program at the restaurant was delicious. Thanks to the staff we will be adding Carajillos to our rotation! We stayed in a beach treehouse and loved the outdoor shower, door/window screens to keep the bugs out while listening to the ocean, and roof deck daybed for star gazing. The design of the architecture and grounds were very aesthetic and peaceful. The hotel was well-maintained and the staff did the best they could to create a peaceful, mosquito-free environment. On that note, it is important to remember that staying at Nomade is very much an outdoor experience which I think their website is very clear about. We were looking forward to this aspect and it was rejuvenating. Based on other reviews it is important to understand this and manage your expectations. The integrated transportation service was super smooth and helped ease us in and out of vacation in a calm manner. Thank you so much to the whole Nomade Holbox staff!! We will see you again.

Try to rip you off by trying to get your credit card details beforehand although I booked via booking.com. The didn’t even accept the AMEX credit card used to make the booking and tried to get a different one because of the fees. In my opinion, they are after quick cash months in advance of your stay, instead of letting you pay upon checkout like in any other decent hotel globally. After asking whether it’s possible to do exactly that (pay when checking out, not half a year before you even check in), they sent an unfriendly four-line email and then canceled my booking. If you want your card details safe, treated professionally and pay AFTER your stay upon checkout, not half a year in advance, avoid this place at all costs.
