  • Mark, We would like to thank you for opening your condo to us, it surpassed our expectations. The property is beautiful, relaxed and quiet. The pictures dont do the condo or the property justice. We have stayed in several houses in Cozumel, Cental America and the Caribbean and yours was by far the best appointed with plenty of beach towels, snorkeling gear and great kitchen. The beach is very nice and it was awesome having the Anita (dive boat) pick us up there and not have to get to the caleta in the morning. Pedro was waiting for us at the airport and checked with us during the week to make sure everything was ok. This is our new favorite in Cozumel.

  • Mark, We just want to tell you what an awesome time we had in Cozumel. The accomadations were beyond our expectations. Not far from town by taxi(but we will definately rent a car next year-different drivers charged different prices for same trip).It was very clean and organized and had lots of extras(DVD"S, CD's, books, snorkling equipment, etc.) The free long distance to and from the USA was also great. Victor met us at the airport and followed us out to the resort. He checked on us several times during the week and was there the last day to help us obtain transportation back to the airport. We cannot say enough about, Addy, the housekeeper. She kept the condo clean for us and kept us in clean linens all week. We told her we were going to tell you that she needs a raise. She even took some of our clothes home with her to launder them for us. One reason we like staying in the area is because of Sand Dollar Sports. Our favorite dive master, Gabriel, remembered us from last year. When he saw us on another boat he came over to talk to us. We told him we had asked about him. Before we knew it they had him on our boat and the guy sho was supposed to be our dive master was off to the other boat. Gabriel dove with us the rest of the week. We were so greatful because we had our 13 y/o granddaughter, who had just got certified to dive the week-end before with us. He took her under his wings(so to speak) as his dive buddy for the entire week. We also took one day to go on a deep-sea fishing trip with Sand Dollar. We had a great day! We caught 2 Baraacuda, 3 tuna and a Mai-Mai or bull dolphin(our 13 y/o granddaughter caught him). The captain of the boat cleaned the Mai-Mai for us and we took it down to Carlos and Charley's and they cooked it for us. During the week we became good friends with these guys because we ate there 5-6 times. They even started giving us our first drinks free. We rented scooters one day and went to the other side of the island. This was quite an adventure. We would advise people going to rent scooters to rent them off the resort though. They charge way to much on the resort. We did have a blast though. We ate at several really good restaraunts while on the island. Our favorites were of Primo's, Arnesto's, La Cas Mission, another Italian place next door to Pizza Hut(I cannot remember the name-but it was the very best and very upscale), and of course Carlos and Charley's. We ordered Pizza Hut once because we were going on a nite dive. It was horrible, not anything like Pizza Hut at home. We are planning another trip for next year about the same time but may have a bigger group so we may have to have 2 condo's. But we will definately be contacting you. My husband and I are planning to come the first week in November to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary but we will need a smaller place. Thanks again for your hospitality. Your operation is the best!

  • As far as our stay -- it was absolutely wonderful, relaxing, perfect -- what else can I say. The entire experience from beginning to end was more than I could have imagined. Matt Ertl with CVV was great and very helpful; Pedro met us at the airport and then Victor stopped by with water and to check on us; the staff at the complex was very nice and accommodating; and the maid, Addy, was terrific. Your condo is much better than anywhere else I have stayed (Turks and Caicos, Jamaica, San Pedro, Belize,and Aruba) -- it had everything and more that was needed. You have done an outstanding job of making this rental a great place to stay. The amenities you provide are above-board. The entire complex is impeccable and everything was always clean (i.e., pools, grounds, beach, etc.). The condo itself was perfect for our family. As far as different things we did -- not a lot because we enjoyed the complex so much! We met some great people from all over. However, my son-in-law did dive both during the days and at night dive with Sand Dollar Sports. He was very impressed and got lots of good underwater pictures. He also booked a snorkel trip with Sand Dollar and again, it was a great experience. My 4-year-old granddaughter actually learned to snorkel in the pool the first week we were there and was able to snorkel in the ocean -- what an experience for her. We also booked a time to swim with the dolphins at Chaanakaab -- it was again something we will always remember. The day we went, the water was a little choppy and it wasn't easy standing on the grates but it was still a great experience. Even if you didn't swim with the dolphins, I would highly recommend going to the park for a day because there are a multitude of things to do. I will highly recommend your condo and Cozumel to anyone that I can. I am trying to figure out when we want to go on vacation next year -- this time, though, I'm shooting for 2-1/2 weeks there!

  • Mark, Sorry, I meant to call you and tell you that when we arrived at the condo, Pedro was waiting with the keys. He was awesome throughout the week, stopping in several times to see if everything was OK. He even gave me a lift into town to a car rental place. The condo was great! We used the snorkeling equipment many times at the private beach, the free phone to the U.S came in handy, and the condo was a home away from home for us. Everyone at the condo complex was very friendly, especially Addy the maid. Cozumel was one of the friendliest places that we've visited, we can't wait to go back!!!! Thanks again for renting your place to us. Mark

  • Hi Mark, The trip was wonderful! Of course, back to reality and our crazy hectic summer. The condo was very nice. There was plenty of room for the 7 of us. Our kids had a blast at the pool and we really enjoyed the beach with all the water toys for the kids to play on. We had a blast at Chankanaab. We swam with the dolphins, which was amazing! Pedro helped the guys with a deep sea fishing trip and a diving trip and was a great help all around with anything we needed for the condo or tips on activities. We rented a catamaran at the Wyndham one day, which was a lot of fun. We drove to the other side of the island where it is much rougher but beautiful. The kids had fun in the surf. We also spent a day over in Playa. The only problems we had were playing hard all day and then struggling to find a restaurant near the condo at night. It seemed the restaurants opened during the day were not opened at night and the Wyndham is adults only. Later in the week we found the Money Bar and ordered fajitas to go. Renting a car is a definite must. Guido's was our favorite and we ate there twice. La Mission was a really neat place. Lime soup and gaucamole is excellent there. The food was okay but not as good as Guido's. Our friends rented the condo straight across the hall and this was a perfect set up. Even though it's a bit hot in June, I preferred the "off-season". The pools at the condo were virtually empty and the beach was always so peaceful. Next time we will plan to have more meals at the condo because our days were just filled with activities and great lunches and by dinner time the kids were wiped. The supermarket was great and fun to shop at! Cozumel and your lovely condo was a welcomed break for me!! It was a fantastic trip and a trip our kids will remember forever. I can see us making this an annual summer vacation. The Birdsong Family

  • It was my first trip to Cozumel in 29 years. Not the hustle and bustle of other beach resorts in Mexico that I have visited which was what I needed. The accommodations were spacious and clean. I did not feel confined at all. The decor was very up to date and the atmosphere was very relaxing and peaceful. Easy to clear your mind. From the way the condo is setup and all of the extras available, you can tell the owner takes great effort to assure absolute comfort for all guests. The resort itself was well maintained with all amenities functioning and available. Excellent restaurants within walking distance with the city a quick 10-15 minute drive away. The beach was perfect. Overall a five star experience which I would highly recommend.

  • I stayed at the condo with two buddies for a week in late May. Everything about our stay was great, including communications from the owner and the property manager prior to the rental. This was especially important since our trip was in the middle of the swine flu scare. The condo was very nicely furnished, spacious and comfortable. Mark the owner even showed up while we were there and made sure everything was OK. Pedro was our local contact and made sure we had everything we needed for a nice stay. He also was very helpful both coming from and getting to the airport since it took two cars! The location of RR is excellent and convenient to the pier pickup for diving and local beach clubs. We were glad we rented a car for the frequent trips to town though. We would definately stay here again!

  • We had a group of 6 people comprised of 3 couples in their 20's/30's recently stay at the Residencias Reef and we very much enjoyed our visit. In general the condo in which we stayed provided exactly what we were looking for with plenty of space and a clean atmosphere, sometimes not always easy to come by while on vacation. The property was very safe as well with a guard stand at the entrance and no signs of people foreign to the complex. The kitchen had plenty of dishes and all the basic appliances including a dishwasher, all of which allowed us to settle in as if it was our own home during the week we were there. The living area was very roomy with a TV connected to the Dish Network and plenty of furniture to accomodate our entire group. Also, the dining area had a table which could seat 6 comfortably which we used on a few occasions. Much of our time while at the condo was spent on the balcony looking out toward the primary pool, with a glimpse at the ocean which was only a hundred yards away. The bedrooms were roomy with plenty of closet and shelf space, all the towels you'd need, and reasonably comfortable beds. The maid came every 2 days to clean the entire condo, changing the sheets and taking all dirty towels and rags. On the beach we had as much space and privacy as we needed. The sand wasn't the powdery white sand you see across the way in Playa Del Carmen but it was adequate. If you're reading this you've probably read other reviews on the Residencias Reef that talk about the rocks in the first 50 feet of water from shore, and they are accurate. While it's not impossible to swim in the immediate area it helps to wear water shoes. We ventured down the beach a few times where there were a handful of beach clubs where you could rent chairs and be served food and beverages as needed. There's also a Wyndham resort next door with a beach bar serving appetizers and drinks which we enjoyed. We did do some snorkeling right out from the property and saw a few neat-looking fish but I think you might have better luck at the park or in other areas if you're an avid snorkeler. While the property we stayed in at the Residencias Reef is not a 5-star luxury condo, it's very nice with all the necessary amenities and at a fair price. For a group of 6 people I don't think there's a better way to go and would certainly recommend this condo to others. Unless you're Donald Trump I think you'll really like this property. While there, make sure you stop by the Money Bar, a 5-minute cab ride toward town. Great food, good service, and live music some nights.
