We steer clear of the mega, all inclusive resorts; instead we prefer to vacation in out of way places enjoying laid back, comfortable lodging so after much internet research, reading the reviews on Holbox and Los Mapaches and many emails back and forth with Rosy (a gem of a gal who works part time at Los Mapaches) we knew that... more

We stayed in the Palapa Rosada in the beginning of January with our daughter (2). For each of us, Mapaches has now become a place by which all others are measured. Utterly relaxing and restorative, it's truly idyllic. Indeed, I have even heard my toddler talking in her sleep about the "Mexico" to which she traveled by plane and boat... more

Most reviews of Villa Los Mapaches rave about the gorgeous location, dreamy beach, and aqua waters. All of this is true. The sand is fine and soft, the water is emerald and placid, the local dogs are friendly, and the hammocks beneath the palapa became our second home. However. We stayed in the orange palapa, reputed to be the best... more

We always thought that certain dream settings are only to be found in Hollywood’s fantasy factories yet; as soon as we arrived at “Los Mapaches” we discovered that dreams could turn into reality. It has amazing to discover, scattered in the midst of a lush tropical garden, just a few romantic, tropical bungalows. Here, contrary to all the other places... more

We had an amazing family vacation. We had huge expectations for our 2 weeks at Los Mapaches. They were all met! The design of this "small resort" is perfect if you like privacy and feeling as if the beach is just for you. Keep in mind that we were there during the low season (last 2 weeks of Sept). There... more

My wife, daughter (2yrs), and I stayed at Los Mapaches recently and had an awesome time. We are seasoned travelers from 5 star to 5 dollars and we enjoy it all. I chose Holbox after research online. I was looking for a family beach expereince get-a-way that was not the typical manufactured resort vacation. Holbox was perfect. For us. Mapaches... more

Number of individual villas - just set back from the beach. The hotel has an area on the beach with hammocks and loungers for guests. There is a restaurant but was unfortunately closed during our stay - but town is only 5mins walk. Staff are extremely helpful and friendly - but hands off. Mosquito repellant is required! Would highly recommend... more

Los Mapaches is the place to go, to be, to relax. The best , loveliest, nicest little jewel on the island. I have stayed there several times ( between 4 nights and 3 weeks ) and will do again in the future. There is no better place to relax. Remarkable is not only the clean- and uniqueness of the sweet... more
