Casa Mariposa is a private beachfront house on Isla Holbox, designed for large private groups of up to 20 guests. Set directly on the white sands of Holbox, the property combines generous indoor and outdoor living spaces with the privacy of a private estate and the convenience of being only a short walk from the heart of the island.
The property offers seven sleeping rooms in total, with six bedrooms and six bathrooms in the main villas plus the separate Sunflower Bungalow. The main villas include two spacious master bedrooms with king beds and four additional bedrooms with two double beds each. The six main bedrooms feature private en-suite bathrooms and are finished with natural materials and refined details that reflect the relaxed character of Holbox.
The Sunflower Bungalow serves as the seventh room and provides additional privacy for guests who prefer a more independent space. It is wheelchair accessible, making Casa Mariposa especially well suited to multi-generational families and groups with varying accessibility needs.
Casa Mariposa is designed for groups to spend time together without sacrificing personal space. Interconnected living areas create room for shared meals, conversation and relaxation, while multiple bedrooms, terraces and outdoor areas allow guests to retreat when they want a quieter moment.
The property opens directly onto a secluded stretch of white-sand beachfront. Guests can move effortlessly between the villas, tropical gardens, outdoor swimming pool and Caribbean shoreline. Beach chairs, plush beach towels, hammocks and a hanging bed are provided for long afternoons by the water, morning coffee in the sea breeze and Holbox sunsets just outside the villa.
The outdoor pool is surrounded by lush tropical gardens, offering a peaceful alternative to the beach and a central gathering place for families and groups.
Inside, the villas are equipped for both short visits and extended stays. Fully equipped kitchens include modern appliances and everything needed for in-villa dining, while two washers and two dryers make longer stays especially comfortable. Air conditioning and ceiling fans are provided throughout the property.
Casa Mariposa also features a whole-property water filtration system, an especially valuable comfort for guests staying on the island.
High-speed Wi-Fi is available throughout the property, and Smart TVs with Netflix provide entertainment when guests want to unwind indoors.
Families are thoughtfully accommodated. Cribs and highchairs are available, and the combination of multiple bedrooms, large common areas, private outdoor space, kitchens, laundry facilities and the accessible Sunflower Bungalow makes the property particularly well suited to extended families and multi-generational groups.
Personalized concierge service is an important part of the Casa Mariposa experience. The on-island team can assist guests with local recommendations, restaurant reservations, island tours and other arrangements so that the stay feels effortless from arrival through departure.
Holbox itself offers an exceptional range of experiences, from boating, fishing and snorkeling to seasonal whale shark excursions, bioluminescence, island tours and days spent exploring the beaches and natural surroundings. Casa Mariposa gives guests a private home base from which to experience the island while still having support available when they want help arranging activities.
Wellness is also part of the Casa Mariposa experience. Personalized in-villa massage treatments can be arranged, allowing guests to enjoy restorative treatments without leaving the property.
Daily maid service is included at no additional charge for stays of more than four nights, helping longer stays remain comfortable and relaxed.
One of Casa Mariposa's greatest advantages is its location. Although the property feels private and peaceful, the restaurants, cafés, shops, beach bars and nightlife of Holbox are within easy walking distance. Guests can enjoy the energy of town without needing to stay in its busiest center, then return to the quiet of their own beachfront retreat.
The setting makes Casa Mariposa equally suited to family reunions, milestone celebrations, groups of friends, wellness retreats, longer stays and private escapes. Rather than separating a large group across multiple hotel rooms, guests can share one beachfront estate with a private pool, kitchens, expansive common areas and direct access to the sea.
From mornings on the terrace and afternoons between the pool and beach to sunset walks and evenings in town, Casa Mariposa offers a rare combination of space, privacy, location and attentive local service on Isla Holbox.
For groups of up to 20 guests looking to experience Holbox together, Casa Mariposa offers the freedom of a private home, the amenities of a thoughtfully equipped villa, and the Caribbean Sea just outside the door.
