Kin Hostal and Camping

Le personnel était super sympa. Le gérant super a l'écoute et propose des activités pour tous ( jeux, ceviche,asado). Nous y avons passé un très bon moment.

Emplacement idéal au calme et pas très loin du centre. Cuisine très bien équipée. Ambiance très détendue où tout le monde fait vite connaissance et partage des moments agréables. Petite épicerie juste en face très pratique. Et biensur, merci à Damien le proprio qui contribue évidement grandement à ce qu’on se sente rapidement très bien chez lui avec juste l’envie d’y revenir

- a 10 min à pieds du centre ville - superbe cuisine équipée - amabilité de l’équipe de réception - le gérant est à l’écoute pour toutes demandes et conseils - mini supérette juste en face - super espace détente

Well, in the end, nothing really.

There are a lot of things to fix and improve. If not all. Things are just falling apart. And what's with the moldy TV with a broken screen? Benches, Tables also half broken. For a night, you'll survive, but for a long stay, it would be a problem. The place is dissolving and no one is really fixing it. Beds don't have walls. Or shelves. Or even hooks. Things are falling down on me all the time. My Pillow falls all the time, so I moved a bit down. Now my feet are outside and Mosquitoes eat them. I slept in a weird position just to keep the pillow under my head. Back pain all the time, which ironically kept me in bed. The pain stayed for 2 more days after I left. The bed light is right in your eyes. Whomever designed those beds is a sadist. It's more of a wild jungle camping. Scorpions, mosquitoes and raccoons. No hot water. Anywhere. Not kidding. I'm not into that much "natural" living. There is a reason why we don't live in caves anymore. This is how homeless people live on the street. Jomeless shelter would be better! Now being in a normal hostel, I'm just...wow. Che or Tribu are absolutely better.

Really enjoyed my stay at Kin, and even extended my stay by 3 nights to spend a week there. The tent I stayed in was perfect - comfortable for sleeping, with a fan, light and plug socket. They also have mosquito nets. The area is peaceful which allowed for great sleeping. All of the hostel staff and volunteers are very kind and work really hard to ensure the place is always really clean. Would highly recommend staying here when in Holbox!

Amazing place to stay, relax, and meet other travelers. There were clear rules for the hostel and dorms that everybody followed, which made the nights very peaceful. There was a well equipped kitchen with a fridge and dry storage to leave your food. There are multiple comfy hangout spots with hammocks around, so you can choose whether you want to relax or chat a bit with other people in the hostel. Also, I loved the location, which looks on the map like it is a bit further from the main square, but there are still some shops, taquerias, and fruterias nearby, the neighbourhood is less touristy and more quiet and honestly, you can't not enjoy the walks around the island, so a couple minutes more won't matter that much I think. When I arrived at this hostel the plan was to stay for only a couple of days and I stayed for 10 days, because I had such a great time and I definitely wasn't the only one feeling that way.

Spotless facilities, cosy hammocks, cheeky raccoons and great staff - I've never seen anyone cleaning with so much dedication (italian mum standards 🤣) Chilled and super relaxing but plenty of opportunities to socialise if you want to. An extra star for the free coffee in the morning!
