"This property was nicer than I expected. Communication with the host was smooth. The guards at the gate to the property were helpful and friendly.We were there to scuba dive. There is a pier next door which cost 10 a day. This is a good spot for diving because lots of the major dive sites are near this location. There is a shower and tub to rinse your gear on the property.The 2 pools and the beach are pretty and clean."

Very luxurious 2 bedroom sea-view condo. Newly remodeled. All new furnishings.

"We had a fantastic stay. Everything was as advertised. The hosts were thoughtful and communication was great. The beds were comfortable and the condo was stocked with towels and drinking water. There is also a gym and pickleball court and pool To enjoy. Security was friendly and helpful. We would stay here again while in Cozumel."

Casa Cazadora del Mar

10/10 Excellent

"At first I found it hard to believe that any place can get only ratings of 10 until we stayed here! The flat was clean, charming, nicely decorated, everything worked, the kitchen had all you needed (fridge, stove, microwave, blender, toaster, toaster oven, utensils, etc.), the balcony was spacious and had a great view of the pool and ocean! One of the added perks was having Roxy cook dinner! If you stay here, which I would unequivocally recommend, you have to have one of Roxy’s amazing dinners! Probably the best dinner we had on the island! The grounds weee impeccably maintained and the staff was super friendly and always willing to help! It was truly a pleasure coming “home” every day! Totally a 10-rating!"

Luxury in Nature- pickleball, large Pool & Beach steps away

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at L’and was incredible. We had 14 people staying, and no one had to share a bed.The house itself is enormous, and perfect for a big family or multiple families staying together. The bedrooms are all large and luxurious. There is a huge space inside for cooking and gathering. Everything is high end, and built for luxury. Outside is absolutely perfect. Everything is top notch. The pool is huge and amazing.Each day Victor (the caretaker) cleans up outside and resets all of the lounges, etc.Nelly and Carolina come each day to clean, make beds, clean towels, etc.The beach is incredible. You can drive or take the golf carts. Victor can take the umbrellas and chairs down any time you want to go to the beach. He is awesome. Sandra will be your main point of contact before the trip and during. Take advantage of her concierge services, she is incredible. Make sure to download WhatsApp to help with communications with all of the Luxury Cozumel team.We took advantage of the private chef for 3 dinners. If we made one mistake, it was not using Sandra’s Kitchen for all meals. Don’t make the same mistake: just book the private chef for all your meals. It is the best way to relax. The food is incredible.Also use Sandra’s kitchen to fully stock the kitchen. The price is reasonable and it is super convenient. We will be back soon and will always stay with Luxury Cozumel!"
