Great stay, wish I had stayed a week for how nurturing the place was!! Secluded feel, a refuge, hammocks set in forest etc. no WiFi so you recharge. great bohemian place for the soul, hand made, free water. Caretaker K amazing n generous. Sleep n wake to birds lots of friendly geckos too! Great location - you can hit the beach in three minutes and go left for a quiet experience and right for all the beach clubs. No snorkeling on Holbox. Food is very expensive on the island so bring it with you? Book online for ADO to save your pesos.

Really good island, feel connected to the nature but sadly too expensive to stay longer

Really nice staff, nice outdoor to chill during the day and nice beach 2 minutes away.

The campsite was beautiful and my little bungalow had all I needed for the night. There was a great vibe and the staff were very friendly and helpful, I felt really welcome. I was only on Holbox for one night but loved it so much that I will be going back and will stay at Balam Camping again!

Our stay was everything we wanted and everything we expected.

It was everything I was looking for, a quiet and beautiful spot, close enough to the beach which was still keeping and maintaining the idea of ecotourism

Had a weird feeling of this camp that is a bit fake with their “talk to each other” signs.

Location, bathrooms were free when needed

Super kind stuff There is a very nice beach, which is empty in the morning in walking distance Most eco place to far from all who label themselves as "eco"

Keep in mind this place is a basic campground out of town. If you like to stay in the luxury and business of the island go somewhere else. That said we loved it, relaxed atmosphere, nice staff and close to some quiet beaches. Ended up extending our stay a few nights.

wonderful

the campsite is well located because it's close to the beach and far from the hustle and bustle of the island's town centre. However, access to this city center is quick and easy on foot or by bike. the campsite staff is great and the atmosphere is really soothing.
