Nestled on the pristine shores of Holbox Island, El Corazón Boutique Hotel stands as a testament to eco-friendliness and romantic luxury. An adults-only haven, this boutique hotel is more than just an accommodation—it’s a commitment to preserving the ecology of the island while providing an intimate and personalized experience for couples seeking the perfect honeymoon escape.

Eco-Friendly Oasis:

El Corazón takes pride in its eco-friendly concept, creating an oasis where sustainability meets luxury. Bamboo mattresses, 100% cotton sheets, and organic personal hygiene products underscore the commitment to a greener, more sustainable environment. The use of biodegradable cleaning products and a 0% policy on plastics consumption further emphasize the hotel’s dedication to the well-being of Holbox Island.

Solar-Powered Serenity:

The majority of the hotel’s energy is sourced from solar panels, contributing to a reduced carbon footprint and an eco-conscious stay. Energy-efficient lighting complements the natural ambiance, and the structures, inspired by the typical holboxeño style, feature cement moldings and palapa roofs. Recycled wood furniture adds a touch of rustic charm to the eco-conscious surroundings.

With just eleven rooms, El Corazón Boutique Hotel ensures a personalized experience in a warm and family-like atmosphere. Three distinct room styles cater to diverse preferences. Executive Suites boast private terraces, perfect for unwinding in a secluded setting. Superior rooms offer balcony areas with garden views, and Deluxe rooms provide a choice of balconies for different levels of outdoor relaxation.

Romantic Retreats:

Two Executive Suites with king-size beds, large couple-friendly showers, and ample natural light create an idyllic atmosphere for honeymooners. The Superior and Deluxe rooms, each with king-size beds, offer a variety of balcony options, providing the perfect setting for romantic moments against the backdrop of the island’s natural beauty.
