Our group loved the property. Amazing views, beautiful pool, great hot tub on the balcony,
Here are some tips:
1. Supermarket across the street (not the mega) is very affordable. Great place to stock up on food and drinks for your stay. We left some shopping bags in a drawer.
2. Get some pesos and offer to pay for everything in pesos. Taxi's charge about 40% less when you pay in Pesos, and you will save 10-20% at most restaurants so credit card or cash always offer to pay in Pesos if you can.
3. Dive with Martin was amazing. They will pick up and drop off at the dock at the property. We were a mixed group of certified, getting certified, and non-certified and they accommodated all of us.
4. Eve, your contact for the property is extremely responsive and willing to help with everything. Edgar, one of the staff at the property is also helpful
5. Get to Ciello beach. It's amazing with stingrays cruising the crystal clear thigh to waist deep water.
6. Bucahnos is worth the trip if you want a great dinner, with an amazing view in a beautiful setting. It's pricey for the island, but reasonable for the states.
7. Very relaxing pool which we used for hours each day.
8. Short walk to the plaza with multiple places to eat. We enjoyed Jeanies, Rolandi's (almost next door), and the restaurant above Fat Tuesday's were all good and easy not the wallet. Cozumel Dreams is a great Sushi place with a $21 all you can eat in an hour option. Very limited seating and closed Sunday and Monday.
9. Couple of things in the condo could use some updating, but all in all very comfortable with beach towels and everything you need for a comfortable stay.
One of our best vacations ever in large part to the location and amenities at El Cantil. Would go back again in a second.
