Rooms and suites all face the sea, with hammocks and wooden lounges provided directly outside your door.

The air-conditioned rooms lack the ritzy touch one might expect so close to Cancun, but they are clean and roomy enough for two.

A simple décor of handmade furniture and woven tapestries graces the rooms and reminds guests that CasaSandra does not exist to impress but to welcome.

Canopied king-size beds have mosquito nets which are a must; mosquitoes rule on Holbox.

All rooms feature a ceiling fan, hairdryer, and Yuc Herbal bath products provided in a decently sized bathroom.

There are no in-room telephones, televisions, or safes but valuables can be stored in the hotel safe located at reception.

Complimentary wireless internet is available in the hotel’s restaurant, pool area and lobby.
