Holbox, Quintana Roo — Hotels on the island of Holbox are projecting a strong close to the year, with tourism occupancy expected to approach 80 percent over the Christmas season, driven by international promotion efforts and a new high-end hospitality award.
New Leadership, Global Push
Under the new leadership of the Holbox Hotel Association, headed by businessman Christian Stenta, the group has set an agenda aimed at strengthening the destination in key markets. Its initiatives include the Shaya Mujeres Viajeras distinction and a second consecutive appearance at the TTG Travel Experience in Rimini, Italy, one of Europe’s most important industry forums.
The island’s hospitality sector also marked a historic milestone after Casa Las Tortugas received a Michelin Key, becoming the first hotel on Holbox to earn the international distinction. Officials said the recognition raises the destination’s competitive profile among travelers seeking distinctive experiences.
December Dates Already Sold Out
With some hotels already fully booked for the December festivities, the tourism sector is confident it can sustain steady visitor numbers and deliver the economic benefit expected for the end of the year in northern Quintana Roo.
