Sunset 2BR Apartment Steps from the Beach w/Ocean View

Welcome to your Holbox hideaway. This spacious and thoughtfully designed 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartment at Yumbalam by Groovy Stays is just a 3-minute walk from Punta Cocos, Holbox’s most peaceful beach, and offers the perfect blend of comfort, nature, and barefoot luxury.

Ideal for families, couples, or small groups, the apartment features one king bed and two queen beds, artisan touches, and a laid-back vibe. The open-concept living area includes a cozy lounge space and a fully equipped kitchen with everything you need to cook up your favorite meals.

Step out onto your private terrace overlooking the lush tropical garden and serene pool—a perfect spot to sip morning coffee or stargaze at night. While you won’t catch sunsets from the terrace, both bedrooms offer ocean views and a front-row seat to Holbox’s breathtaking sunsets. Each bathroom is stocked with personal care essentials, and the entire apartment is equipped with A/C and high-speed Starlink WiFi (50 Mbps) for remote work or streaming.

Guests enjoy access to a tranquil shared pool with sun loungers, surrounded by palm trees and island breezes. Whether you're here to relax, reconnect, or explore, this is the perfect place to unwind.

Located just a 10-minute walk from the bioluminescent lagoon and a 30-minute beach walk or quick golf cart ride from the town center, you’ll be surrounded by birdsong, sandy paths, and the untouched charm of Holbox.

Need help with transportation, romantic packages, or golf cart/bike rentals? Just ask—we’re happy to help personalize your stay.

Traveling with a larger group? We can host up to 25 guests across multiple Groovy Stays units—send us a message and we’ll help coordinate the perfect group getaway.

Pet-friendly, stylish, and made for slow island living—your Holbox retreat awaits.
We’re excited to host you and want to ensure everyone enjoys their stay! Please take a moment to read the guidelines below so everything flows smoothly during your time with us:

🐾 Pets
We love welcoming your furry friends! Our pet fee is $50 USD per pet, with a maximum of two pets per stay. Just let us know in advance if you’re bringing your pet.
To keep things cozy and clean, we kindly ask that pets stay off the beds and furniture.

🎉 No Parties or Events
We’re all about good vibes and relaxation. Large gatherings, parties, and events are not allowed in the apartment or around the property.

🚽 Bathroom Etiquette
Holbox is a delicate eco-island, and this property is connected to a septic tank system, which requires a bit of extra care.
To help protect the island’s environment and avoid plumbing issues:

Do not flush toilet paper, wipes, or any other objects down the toilet.

A wastebasket is provided for all paper products—it’s cleaned daily.

Please avoid pouring oils or harsh chemicals down any drain.

Thank you for helping us preserve the island’s natural systems and keep everything flowing beautifully. 🌿

🌙 Quiet Hours
Rest is sacred. Quiet hours are from 11:00 PM to 8:00 AM.
During this time, we ask that you keep noise to a minimum—no loud music, shouting, or disturbances—so everyone can enjoy a peaceful night’s sleep.

🏊 Pool Guidelines
Our shared pool is open from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM. To ensure it’s enjoyable and clean for all:

Shower before entering the pool—this helps keep the water fresh for everyone.

No glass containers in or around the pool.

No food or drinks inside the pool.

No smoking in or near the pool area.

Please avoid entering the pool if intoxicated.

Children must be supervised at all times.

🧖 Towel Etiquette
For aesthetic and safety reasons, please do not hang towels or clothing over the balcony rails. Towel racks and hooks are available inside the apartment.

🔔 Important
Non-compliance with these rules may result in a fine of $5,000 MXN or more, depending on the severity of the violation.

We had an amazing time at Yum Balam. Excellent communication with the host and our concierge, Karina was so responsive and helpful. She helped us arrange an easy transportation from Cancun airport to apartment and any tour we wanted to go on: 3 Islands Tour, Whale Shark Tour and Bioluminescent Tour. As well as giving us a list of activities and restaurants. So easy to get a taxi to the center of town and back. Can’t wait for next time!
