The spa is located next door at Sunscape Sabor Cozumel and treatments cost extra. Preferred Club guests receive hydrotherapy circuit access. There is also a fitness center.
Activities and entertainment
Non-motorized water sports include kayaking, paddleboarding, windsurfing and snorkeling, and there are catamaran outings. Scuba diving is available at an extra cost, which is a big draw on an island known for its reefs.
On land you can play tennis, basketball, beach volleyball or table tennis. Evenings bring theme nights and live entertainment.
Beyond the resort, Cozumel is best known for the reefs of the Cozumel Reefs National Park along its southwest coast, which draw divers and snorkelers from around the world. San Miguel, the island’s only town, has a waterfront promenade, shops and local restaurants, and passenger ferries connect it with Playa del Carmen on the mainland.
Who it’s best for
- Best for: couples, honeymooners and adult friends who want an all-inclusive stay with mostly a la carte dining, swim-out suites and easy access to Cozumel’s reefs.
- Consider another resort if: you are travelling with children, want to walk to San Miguel, or prefer an on-site spa building rather than one at the neighbouring resort.
Getting there from Cozumel International Airport
The resort is about 17 km from Cozumel International Airport (CZM), roughly 25 minutes by car. Chankanaab National Park is about 6 km away.
Taxis wait outside the terminal, but a pre-booked transfer means your driver is waiting with your name when you land. Allow a little extra time on busy cruise-ship days, when traffic around San Miguel is heavier.
