For Sale: Intimate 6-Room Boutique Hotel — Isla Holbox

Own a turnkey boutique hotel in one of Mexico’s most desirable island destinations. This rare 6-room property blends authentic island charm with modern comforts: guest rooms with private bathrooms, curated common areas, a small breakfast/restaurant space, lush gardens, and a pool — designed for high-value leisure travelers seeking an exclusive Holbox experience.

Why Holbox?

Holbox is a sought-after, fast-growing tourism micro-market within the Riviera Maya known for its beaches, wildlife (whale sharks, birds), and relaxed vibe. The island’s short-stay rental market and boutique hotel segment consistently attract international tourists and high-spend visitors, supporting healthy ADRs and strong seasonal demand.

Market snapshot (data points)

Active short-term rental listings and platform demand: hundreds of active Airbnb/short-term listings on Holbox, with average platform rates and occupancy that help benchmark boutique hotel performance.
Island pricing: resale condo/home prices and asking prices on listing portals show Holbox units commonly trading in the mid-to-high hundreds of thousands USD, reflecting limited land and high demand.
Regional hotel performance context (Riviera Maya): broader regional occupancy averages and tourism growth underline the long-term demand tailwinds for Holbox.
