Map & Owner's Profile
Right on the Beach...Spectacular Cozumel Sunsets...Vista Dulce
Year Purchased: 2002
Why the Owner Chose Cozumel Island
We wanted a place that was on a white sand Caribbean beach, within 4 hours of Denver and a place that never got cold in the winter. After searching Florida, Puerto Rico, BVI's and the mainland of Mexico, we kept coming back to Cozumel. When we first walked in and saw only blue sky and turquoise waters, it took our breath away; hence the name, Vista Dulce (Sweet View).
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
We are right on the beach and the west facing terrace hangs out over the Caribbean. You will find peace and quiet, yet town is only 5 minutes away. The white sand beach is isolated and rarely used except on the weekend. On one side of Las Brisas is a park owned by the town and on the other side is a single family residence. Restaurants and nightlife are only 2.5 miles south and cabs are easy to flag down if you decide not to rent a car. We have a pier that blocks the current and makes for good snorkeling and fishing.
This is available for day tours only. It costs $35/day and is all inclusive.
Great drinks, highest pont on island, great views, closes around sunset.
Perfect day trip. Beach club, good for lunch and drinks. Nice beach with protected inlet for swimming. Go there when the wind is blowing from the north and west.
Good day trip with the kids. Lots of water sports and resort dives. Both beach clubs have restaurants and bars.
National Park for viewing real Myan ruins. Not as big as Tulum or Coba, but it is very interesting.
Take a dune buggy tour. Do not try to go there on your own; you will get stuck in the sand.
Owner's Map of Cozumel Island
We got tired of staying in places that were poorly furnished and uncomfortable. We wanted a place that felt like home, so we furnished Vista Dulce for ourselves. We also wanted access to all the latest technologies, so we could live there if we decided to. It was only afterwards that we thought about renting out our home. We take maintaining Vista Dulce in top condition very seriously, so you will feel right at home.
Janey and Ledge, Denver.

Just returned from a 7 night stay at Vista Dulce. My wife and 3 daughters (21,20,16) were along also. We dove 4 days with Albatross Charters (excellent small outfit). The condo is great and the location can't be beat. This is much better than the house we rented before that was in town. If you're going to Cozumel,you need to stay on the beach, if you can and this is the place. The views, amenities, and layout are outstanding. Thanks for a great week!

If you're used to all-inclusive vacations, do yourself a favor. Stay at Vista Dulce and you may never stay at another all-inclusive resort in your life. The condominium is extraordinary. It's equipped with every amenity - from satellite TV, free internet, free calls to the U.S., right down to a huge assortment of board games for your family. The view from Vista Dulce's 65-foot balcony is incomparable. We even saw a pod of dolphins swimming lazily by in the ocean. The best snorkeling is just north of the unit behind an abandoned hotel (it was damaged in a hurricane). You'll spot it easily. Corona Beach Club offered great snorkeling as well. Be sure to rent a car from Avis - they were amazingly honest, and driving around the island was a breeze. I fully expected some type of ripoff from the rental car folks, but I couldn't have been happier. Pay for your rental with your Visa credit card and you'll have automatic primary damage insurance. (You want "primary," not "secondary" insurance, and you get this for free when you pay with your Visa. More info here: http://usa.visa.com/personal/cards/benefits/bft_dmg_waiver_personal.html) You'll definitely want a car to go exploring. Don't miss the wild side of the island. Grab a map and explore its abandoned beaches. There's nothing to fear. And there's only one main road so it's virtually impossible to get lost. Get your groceries at the Mega super market at the south end of the Sea Front road. Groceries are super cheap and liquor is a fraction of the cost you'd pay in t he States. Do be sure to eat at a genuine taqueria far off of the strip. You can find them by just driving around east of the strip. Some great restaurants are Costa Brava, Especias, and La Lobsteria. Le Chef restaurant was pretty good, but the steak was nothing to write home about. (The red snapper in Lobster sauce was killer, though.) Cafe Denis received great reviews on most sites, but I thought the food and service were poor. Okay, you've got all the info. Now all you need is a plane ticket. Treat yourself and your family to a great time at Vista Dulce for an experience you'll cherish forever.

Ledge, Sorry I didn’t send something sooner but things have been a little crazy. My wife and I had such a great time and loved your place. Your information book made navigating the island easy and planning our outings a breeze. We celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary down there and it made the event something we will always remember. Thank you so much for making that a possibility and thank you for all that you do to support children in our community.

Hi Ledge, Thanks so much for letting us stay in your beautiful condo. We felt right at home. It is gorgeous! We did go a lot to town and tried a few restaurants. La Mision was our favorite, we haven't had seafood that tasty in a long time. If we would have had more time, we would have gone to Coconuts. The people in Cozumel are so friendly and the markets were neat to check out. I really appreciated the fact that I was able to preorder groceries, as the kids were hungry when we got there and it tied them over til supper. We also enjoyed the choice of tequila they selected for us, el Jimador, have never tried it before. Berta is a sweetheart and always had your home spic and span. We walked on the pier, the kids snorkeled off your shore and we walked the beach. They had fun finding crabs. We live in Manitoba, Canada so we left with snow on the ground. They found the change of scenery quite exciting. We did do a snorkel tour. A private one with a smaller boat that had a glass bottom. It was fun! All in all we had a wonderful time for our first visit to Cozumel ! Thanks again from the bottom of our hearts!! Sincerely, The Meilleur Family

Our family of five stayed at Vista Dulce for 8 days. This condo has large, very well appointed rooms and is well maintained. Some rental condos are sort of barren, but not this place...it feels very welcoming and bright. We had plenty of space; we have a fair amount of experience renting from owners and this in the top tier of places we've stayed at. The pool is nice and we essentially had it to ourselves all week. The building is well cared for and secure. The location is very convenient to town and it does not even take very long to drive all the way to the south end of the island from here. The owner is excellent to work with and provided an extensive list of activities and restaurants with reviews. The local manager was also very helpful and available to give insider advice. We found this level of support to be quite valuable in planning some parts of the vacation. If (when) we return to Cozumel, we would certainly rent this place again. Finally, we did rent a car (from Ace/Executive). I'd do that again too. The car adds a lot of flexibility no matter where you stay and the driving in Coz is pretty easy.

Dear Ledge - Just a quick note to let you know how much we enjoyed Vista Dulce. We happened to get one of those weeks when the high wind kicks up for five days straight (out of our 8), but your condo is so comfortable and homey that it was easy to experience a joyous week. We left 3 books (none so good as the Bangkok 8 we found on your shelves) and an exprimador (fresh orange juice is wonderful here this time of year). Having stayed all over Cozumel in a multitude of accommodations, it's easy to say that yours ranks up in very the top two. I would gladly (and hope to) return, and plan to recommend on TripAdvisor that others do the same. Of course one always hates to do that when you find womething really wonderful -- what if a glowing recommendation means somebody else reserves before i do . . . ah well -- just wanted you to know what a great time we had. Thanks again, Robin

Ledge, we returned from Cozumel yesterday after a wonderful trip and stay in your super condo! Everything went very well and our group is still buzzing about Vista Dulce and our fun times on the island. Thanks so much for the opportunity to experience Cozumel and celebrate my wife’s birthday in style! BTW, Guido’s was our favorite restaurant. Only two items to share FYI…the guest book is completely full…we made our comments on the very last page; and the drawer beneath the TV in the master suite was off of its track when we arrived, so looks like it will need to be repaired. Other than these minor items, everything else in the condo was perfect. Best regards, Tony

Comments: Hello Ledge, After 16 vacations in Cozumel in the past 20 years, the last three at your beautiful home, I can honestly say we will stay nowhere else. We've done the A.I.'s and other hotels on the island, but nothing we've experienced has come close to Vista Dulce. Fabulous view, tasteful yet comfortable furnishings, great service (Berta is terrific...keeps the place immaculate!) all combine to make us feel right at home the moment we drop our bags! The worst thing about the whole experience was having to pack those bags back up again! We're looking forward to another 2 (maybe 3 ?) weeks again next year. Thanks again, Ledge. Doug and Jean

Spent a delightful week at Vista Dulce in early November 2010. Unfortunately, most of that week Cozumel was buffeted by high winds, even on the 'calm' side, but fortunately, Vista Dulce is such a comfortable accommodation that we were happy just to hang out and read more than we would normally while on Cozumel. We visit Cozy several times a year, and this condo ranks in our very top 3 accommodations available on the island. The condo is spacious, well maintained, and everything (especially the A.C.) works quickly and efficiently. There is plenty of parking for the small number of units, the maid (cleaning) service is unobtrusive, and the furniture is attractive and comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped, and the bathrooms were great with excellent showers & water pressure. Lots of books and beach towels were available, too. The whole place felt home-like and comfy, without being at all worn down. The only minor annoyance was the half flight of stairs up or down from the elevator, but this was more than compensated for by the extremely easy access into the ocean from the relatively sandy shore fronting the condo. The snorkeling wasn't spectacular right by the condo, but that might have been due to the high winds roiling the water. Guess we'll just have to go back again and check when it's calmer -- it's a dirty job, but somebody's got to do it!

We had a wonderful week at Vista Dulce! It was a perfect location for our family vacation. The rooms were beautiful. We loved the balcony for our morning coffee, & watching the sunset. The pool was great-- even the 18 mo & 3 yr old loved it! Favorite restaraunt--Casa Dennis. Thanks so much!
