Holbox, Q.R. — The Holbox Hotel Association says they have recorded a 10 percent increase in occupancy rates. The increase in rates during 2025 is due to strategic promotion of the island.
Hotel Association head Christian Stenta says the results are thanks to joint efforts between hotels, authorities and strategic partners. As a result, Holbox registered a 10 percent annual increase in hotel occupancy rates compared to the previous year.
“During 2025, the Holbox Hotel Association consolidated a strategic effort focused on tourism promotion, institutional coordination and strengthening the destination.
“Actions that are now reflected in tangible results,” Christian Stenta posted on social media. “This reaffirms visitor confidence and the island’s positioning as a competitive and sustainable destination,” he added.
Since the start of the year, municipal authorities have been promoting Holbox internationally, not only by participating in tourism fairs but also by collaborating with the Association.

Lázaro Cárdenas City Council, the municipality in which Holbox is situated, worked throughout the year on street leveling, flood control and also raising awareness about environmental protection.
The municipality also worked on providing support to the various sectors that offer tourism services.
“Our job is to guarantee a future with greater opportunities for Holbox residents and visitors. Our work includes keeping the solid waste transfer center clean, ensuring safety, monitoring compliance with the Local Ecological Zoning Program, and providing the necessary tools to ensure the safety of the general population,” Lázaro Cárdenas Mayor Nivardo Mena commented.
This year, municipal authorities, together with the Association, secured resources from the state government for the construction of the island’s first fire station. The building, once complete, will be a combination fire, police and Civil Protection station.
Other achievements include working on protection of the ecosystem, signing agreements with Joy Travel and receiving the Queer Destination distinction.
