The Beachfront Hotel La Palapa is a romantic hotel for adults only located on Holbox Island in the Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula, sitting on one of the most beautiful beach stretch of the island.
An incomparable setting with 25 comfortable rooms feet away from the white sand beach and tourquoise water, a marvelous piece of Paradise, where the Caribbean meets the calm water of the Gulf of Mexico.
