Thank you in advance for your flexibility and cooperation if any situation were to arise.

*Taxis are not allowed to wait outside the Cancun International airport at arrivals so a transfer needs to be arranged for a private car service pick up or there is a local bus that takes you to Chiquila town where you will find the ferry or private boats waiting to take you to Holbox Island. Please review our FAQ page for full details on travel to the island.

If you would like us to arrange transportation to and from the airport for you please let us know by sending your full flight itinerary and we will send instructions for finding your driver.  We will try our best to pair those arriving at similar times together in an attempt to share the costs or if you need a private ride we are happy make those arrangements at an additional cost.

Please look for the YOGA & ADVENTURES WORLDWIDE sign outside your terminal if you plan your transfers with us.

Travel Tips Guide

Holbox Island Yoga Retreat TRAVEL TIPS :

Fly into Cancun International airport (CUN).

From Cancun Airport to Chiquila, travel time is approximately 2 hours drive through small villages and open jungle highways.

From Chiquila you take a 20 minute ferry ride over to the island. Ferries run every half hour and tickets can be purchased on the spot at the pier.

Last ferry runs around 8pm. Please check with us for specifics if you need to leave or arrive late at night.

We can arrange the full transfer from airport to villa door for you if you like. Just send along your full flight details and we will try to pair you with others traveling on a similar schedule to the island/airport.

Taxis are not allowed to wait outside the Cancun International airport at arrivals so a transfer needs to be arranged for a private car service pick up or there is a local bus that takes you to Chiquila town where you will find the ferry or private boats waiting to take you to Holbox Island. You must consult the ADO bus schedule on your own to coordinate the bus trip to Chiquila.

ATMS are sparse on the island and not very reliable. Please plan to take out cash in Mexican pesos at the airport ATM upon arrival or exchange your currency at the airport for Mexican pesos. Some places accept credit cards on the island but it’s always a better idea to have cash for local venues like fish shacks on the beach and trinkets sold by local vendors.

Wifi on the island is not very strong. If you need super reliable internet please let us know to discuss this further. The idea is to unplug and be offline as much as possible. Phone signals are quite good so make sure your local telephone provider works in Mexico or extend your service to include Mexico while you are on retreat. That way friends and family can contact you if necessary and vice versa…we know, old school right?!
