Rating7.2
Rating8.1Daily programming covers water sports, fitness, and evening entertainment. Snorkeling from the beach accesses Paradise Reef directly — no boat required, equipment included. Dive excursions and fishing carry extra charges. Kids Club (ages 5-12) runs daily with supervised activities and a waterslide pool. Morning yoga on the beach and aqua aerobics in the pool are the most consistently praised scheduled activities.
Central large pool surrounded by gardens and palms, with a waterfall feature. Lounge chairs and cabanas available. Bikini Bar serves swim-up. Active and social during daytime.
Spectacular Caribbean views. Quieter than the main pool. Adults and couples tend to gravitate here. Cruceros Bar serves the deck.
Second infinity pool with its own wet bar for drinks in the water. Ocean views. Also tends quieter than the main pool.
Inside the Kids Club with water slides. Safe and supervised. Dedicated space keeps children away from adult pools.
Near the beach and infinity pools with ocean views. Note: maintenance issues have been reported in guest reviews — check condition on arrival.
Second hot tub with coastal views. Same caveat on maintenance as Whirlpool 1.
Accessed via private underpass, which gives it a secluded feel despite the Cozumel hotel strip nearby. White sand and calm, clear water. Paradise Reef is directly offshore — snorkel mask and fins are all you need. Towels, loungers, and palapas provided. The beach is small by Caribbean standards; it gets crowded midday during peak season. Natural rock boundary forms a shallow wading area safe for young children. Cruise ships are visible from the beach at certain times — if that's a concern, ask about room positioning to minimize views.
Equipment included, from the beach. Paradise Reef is directly offshore — arguably the best included snorkeling access of any Cozumel all-inclusive. Morning visibility is clearest before afternoon boat traffic.
