Isla Holbox is a relatively undiscovered island paradise located off the north coast of Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula. With long, white sand beaches and some of the most beautiful crystal-clear water in the world, Holbox is often described as Mexico's best kept secret and the best island in Mexico. It's definitely one of our new favorites!
Come along with us as we show you how to get to Holbox (it takes a little planning!) and explore the island from remote Punta Mosquito to the iconic beach with hammocks at Playa Punta Cocos. Along the way, we discover the best hotels, restaurants, beaches, and things to do in Holbox! Why don't you sit back, relax, and join us!?

ABOUT US: We're Andy and Trai, a gay couple living in Mexico with our rescue jackhuahua, Pattie. After meeting in San Francisco and later moving to Chicago, we decided to quit our jobs in 2021, sell everything, and become two gay expats. Since then, we've been traveling the world and documenting our adventures on RU-vid and our travel blog. Tulum is our current home base-it's where we got married and decided to build a house. Subscribe for the next chapter in our story. We hope it inspires your travels and shows you what places are really like if you are thinking about living, working, or retiring abroad.
Thanks for watching!

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Flamingo hotel and let me tell you it was so luxurious and spacious! I loved the whole experience AND we went to see Bio-luminescence...Can't wait to go back and do it again oh and this time we're heading to Bacalar as well. oh! one downside to holbox was take cash since their internet/wifi goes down quite often.

@TwoGayExpats 2 года назад

We totally agree! Thanks for sharing!! And we’re stoked for Bacalar too! We’ve only heard amazing things!

It's amazing that Mexico can still be so affordable! I remember my first trip to Mexico about 20 years ago, a long 3-day weekend in Mexico City. I stayed at a boutique hotel in the Zona Rosa and had a beautiful suite paying an amazingly low price. As for my spending money, I'd budgeted $100 per day. Incredibly even after eating at the best restaurants it was impossible to spend even near that much! Thanks for your informative videos guys!

@TwoGayExpats 2 года назад

Absolutely! We always feel we get incredible, friendly service and excellent value in Mexico! I think you could easily manage that in Mexico City and the Zona Rosa today too!!

My friend and I are arriving in a few days to Holbox... so excited! I saw most of your meals were plant based.. that's awesome! I'm plant based and I was worried there wouldn't be many options. I might have to try out Kite Boarding.... Thank you for all the tips and cute doggo! Any last minute advice?

@TwoGayExpats 2 года назад

Thank you! You’re going to have an awesome time!!! Enjoy!! ❤️

@GluteusMaximuz Год назад

Amazing and very detailed video guys thank you so much very helpful for someone who never been there.. one question did you notice if they had bicycles for toddlers for little kids to ride with parents or even one bike that can take one parent and one kid along together, having a hard time to find out that..thank you!!

@TwoGayExpats Год назад

Thank you!! And that’s a very good question!! I would google the bike rental shops on the island and message them. I couldn’t find any reviews on a quick google search that confirmed. You could always rent a golf cart which I’m sure the kids would love!

@Wedrowanie 2 года назад

Great video! We're going to stay at Hotel Para Ti per your recommendation. Do you remember what type of room you were staying at? There are so many options and different websites show different information on their rooms - I'm having a hard time deciding....lol. Thank you for an awesome video!

@TwoGayExpats 2 года назад

The rooms at Hotel Para Ti all have names. We stayed in the room named “Vida,” listed as the “Super Luxury” room on their website with a King-sized bed on the upstairs level. It was also located at the very end which we loved! Have a great trip!!

@TwoGayExpats 2 года назад

Thank you! It’s pretty nonexistent. Especially on Punta Cocos!! It’s where you go to get away from it!!! Or the cenotes of course!

Did you guys find problems with the trash and mosquitoes?

Not trash, but always bring repellant. The mosquitoes don’t like me, but they love Andy 😂

@robert760ca Год назад

My husband and I woke up one night in Tulum to find a raccoon in our room, eating from a bowl of fruit. It was a little unnerving, but to compensate, the hotel upgraded us to a much nicer room for the rest of our stay. So we always looked back at that little raccoon as a gift.

@TwoGayExpats Год назад

Wow! What an amazing story!!! Thanks for sharing!!

@zachwood3397 Год назад

Do either of you speak Spanish? If not, how was it navigating the island?

@TwoGayExpats Год назад

Very easy. No worries. We’ve not been anywhere in Mexico that google translate on our phone couldn’t assist when needed.
