Discover Luxurious Plunge Pool Suites and Swim-Up Bar at This Mexican Island Resort

Jimmy Buffet’s Margaritaville is enhancing the beach escape experience, whether at the beach, bar, or sea. In April 2022, it made its debut at sea with cruises to the Bahamas, coinciding with the launch of its first property in the new boutique hotel collection, St. Somewhere.

Situated on the picturesque shores of Mexico’s Isla Holbox, the new Margaritaville St. Somewhere Punta Coco, Holbox Island by Karisma offers an elevated escape, embodying the brand’s new partnership with Karisma Hotels and Resorts.

According to Mario Mathieu, the senior vice president of business development, design, and construction at Karisma Hotels and Resorts, “The unspoiled surroundings of Isla Holbox’s white sand shores and crystal-clear turquoise waters inspired every aspect of the property, from the open-air concept to the yacht-inspired décor. By merging laid-back luxury with Karisma’s exceptional service, each guest experience is enriched with warm hospitality and local culture.”

Features of the Resort

Margaritaville St. Somewhere Punta Coco features 39 accessible suites located on the resort’s first floor. Guests will appreciate the soothing neutral tones of the furnishings, accented by the blues and greens reflective of the tranquil waters and lush mangrove gardens surrounding the property. Each suite falls into one of seven categories, some of which offer private plunge pools or direct access to the main pool and swim-up bar.

Dining Options

To cater to diverse culinary preferences, Margaritaville St. Somewhere offers two open-air restaurants and a bar. At The Sandbar & Pan American Grill, guests can dig their toes into the soft sand while enjoying shared plates featuring fresh seafood, ceviches, and spear-caught fish. The Harbour House Peninsular Cuisine and Wood Stove Bar, on the other hand, serves traditional Mexican dishes alongside American favorites. Tropical drinks, including poolside cocktails, are available at the Lone Palm, complete with a swim-up bar.

Activities Available

While guests can relax and indulge in their suites, off-site adventures await, such as snorkeling, bird-watching excursions, and the seasonal opportunity to swim with whale sharks. For those who prefer to stay on the property, activities include taking a refreshing dip in the pool, participating in a cooking class, or engaging in various daily games organized by the staff.

Rates for a stay at Margaritaville St. Somewhere Punta Coco, Holbox Island by Karisma start at $260 per night.
