IslaMar Villas- Equipment Lockers, Rinse Tank, Outdoor Shower & Pool/Spa Area
Location: Cozumel Island, Quintana Roo, Yucatan, Mayan Riviera, Mexico (In Midtown ~ 10-15 minute walk to Downtown Plaza/Beachfront) View Map
Accommodations: Vacation Villas, 1 Bedroom + Convertible bed(s), 1 Bath (Sleeps 2-3)
Open continuously since 1998, this is one of the few remaining owner/operated vacation rental facilities on the island. Sure there are alot of hotels to chose from but how many of those hotel owners or managers will know your name or remember you next time you visit?
Owner/operator Sherri Davis would like to thank all of her clients for giving her the opportunity to celebrate 11 years of operation!
Offering quality and value, IslaMar Vacation Villas provide the perfect get-away for you, your family and friends to enjoy tropical island living at its best! Sherri and her staff are always nearby to personally assist guests with their vacation needs.
The five IslaMar Villas are all situated around a common garden, pool, waterfall & jacuzzi area. There is a 1BR/1Bath studio villa, then 3 1BR/1Bath standard villas and 1 2BR/2Bath villa within the IslaMar compound so you can select the size villa needed for you and your budget. The entire compound is surrounded by a ten foot privacy/security wall. IslaMar is located in a regular neighborhood (out of the tourist zone), just a ten minute walk from Downtown or beach areas. Just around the corner is a neighborhood grocery as well as a family play park.
Nestled in the heart of Mid-Town Cozumel, IslaMar is popular among those who travel extensively or visit the island frequently and are looking for a more authentic cultural island experience rather than the glitz (and expense) of the tourist zone. Let IslaMar Villas become your island get-away... they're NOT just another place to stay but a perfect way to transition from "hotel staying" to "island living"!

Why the Owner Chose Cozumel Island
On my first visit to Cozumel years ago, I simply could not believe that a person could leave DFW, fly for a bit over 2 hours and end up in a place as remote and primative as Cozumel was back then. There is something about the island that simply draws visitors into its charm.
As a scuba diver, I found heaven on earth in the beauty of the reefs that surround Cozumel and I simply never wanted to leave! Having my vacation villas gives me the chance to share the Cozumel I know with others who enjoy island living type vacations!
The Unique Benefits at this Vacation Villas
One of the main reasons folks come back to IslaMar year after year is because it is one of the few remaining owner operated vacation rental facilities in Cozumel. Most other vacation rentals are handled nowadays by property management companies.
My staff and I are on site daily and try to ensure that guests have the best possible vacation experience while here on the island. We assist guests with everything from coordinating car rentals and excursions to sharing information about less expensive "locals" places to hang out.
We also find that many of our guests enjoy "volunTOURism" so we try to hook folks up with various community service organizations that are in need of project workers or donations.
