The Paradise beachfront three bedroom condo is a frisbee throw from the ocean and has a stunning view of the sunset over the palm trees. My wife and I and our two kids each had our own rooms that are brightly decorated, marbled, spacious and clean. The kids had their own bathroom, yes.This prime location is a snorkel trip away from Chaakanaab Parque and right next door to Uvas beach, whose dive shop took us out for a very nice reef exploration and included a refresher scuba course for a nice price. San Miguel is a seven minute drive north, and Punta Sur is fifteen minutes south, passing all the big inclusive beaches along the way. The owners were quite fair and easy to deal with, and the gardener does an exquisite job of landscaping with all the colors of the rainbow in bloom. The fourteen condo apartments are in five buildings, and each has its own roof top lookout, great for star gazing. The recently constructed modest but classy development is not to big, not to small. It is the typical Caribbean concrete construction but is enhanced with enough tile detail, recessed lighting and bright paint that it feels very comfortable and is incredibly clean. My kids had the lovely figure eight pool to themselves, and both porches had hammocks and were accessible from three different rooms. We enjoyed fixing daily breakfasts and a couple of dinners in a kitchen that has all that was needed, including spices and basic seasonings. The unit was stocked with snorkel gear, two bikes, and a couple dozen towels and the maid service was regular and dependable. We had a marvelous stay in paradise and I recommend it highly.

We just returned from this property and it was everything we could have asked for-- perfect for families. You have 2 outdoor patio areas-- a beautiful view to eat outside and we practically had the pool to ourselves (lots of pool and beach equipment for kids available in condo) and then our own private little beach with the best snorkeling from shore literally right off the beach! We saw a couple of other units in this very private complex and this was by far the best unit. Next door you have Uvas beach club for great fish tacos and you are very close in to town for groceries. We did a great snorkel reef excursion with the kids and they came and picked us up at our little beach (saw multiple turtles, rays, eel).... Can't say enough about this special spot--we will definitely be back and that's the first time our travel-bug bitten family wants to return to the same place!

Paradise in Cozumel!

“Paradise” really does describe it all! We traveled with 4 adults and 4 children (ages 4 to 14). There was plenty of beds and extra bedding so everyone had a comfortable place to sleep. The condo is well designed, decorated and very clean! With all the rooms and balcony space we never felt crowded. From the balcony, we could watch the kids at the pool and on the beach. Snorkeling right off the condo beach was great, scuba diving was fantastic – we were picked up and dropped off at the condo beach – very convenient! We also took advantage of Uva’s Beach Club Restaurant. On two occasions, they delivered our lunch and breakfast to our condo poolside table. This was first class – they served on actual dishes, no paper plates or plastic ware! We rented a car and explored several other beaches on the island. Each had something different to offer including a full body massage on the beach. The location of the condo was perfect! We were close enough to town, beach clubs & restaurants that it was quick and easy to get around and explore yet while at the condo you have everything you need including seclusion & relaxation away from the crowds. The assistance we received from Ash (the building manager) during our stay and the owners (prior to our trip) was some of the best customer service that we have experienced. A beautiful & safe location, wonderful well kept accommodations and great customer service is the recipe for the perfect vacation in paradise! We will definitely return!

This was a perfect place to stay in Cozumel. It is modern, clean, and well stocked. Snorkeling is fantastic right off the beach in front of the condo. Shelling was great. My family loved everything about the vacation. Everyone was so helpful, from the owners to the maid. We can't wait to go back!

This condo offers all of the comforts of home, and it's location is perfect. Far away enough from town to enjoy some seclusion, yet close to Chankanaab and best diving reefs. We're already trying to figure out when we'll head back!

The Condo is truly the perfect location on the island with its own private beach - just slide into the water a few short steps from your front door. Equal distance between Money Bar (sunken ship) and Chakunab Park - we snorkeled both directions - no need to hire a boat to take you out. Snorkeling equipment and towels provided made everything so simple. Property management was very responsive and helpful. The view from our balconies was incredible. We also went fishing one day - caught a beautiful red snapper that Guido's (lovely italian restaurant in town) cooked up for us. Would love to come back to Cozumel and would definitely stay here again.

Paradise 2B is just that! It's a wonderful condo in the perfect spot among the condos. Not on the ground level so others are walking past peeking in, but not an exhausting climb up many flights of stairs. The location on the island is great too. We rented cars and felt close enough to everything without being caught up in the middle of it all the time. The snorkeling right off the beach is great. We learned to take our time and really look at everything because if you go too fast you'll miss a LOT. Flounder and the yellow rays blend in with the surroundings so well that they're easy to miss. We saw a rainbow colored eel and an octopus out there too. The photos of the condo are accurate. One never knows if the pictures are from 10 years ago when the condo was in good condition... but I felt like I had already been there before when I walked in because it is just like the photos. The only thing that was not as indicated online was the two cell phones for use on the island. (I can imagine that they were pretty abused) Perhaps that is off the list of extras by now. The snorkeling gear is convenient, and there were plenty of towels (both beach and bath) and we had 6 adults there. Ash is very nice and helpful with suggestions of where to eat and what is a must do on the island. The condo owners were very responsive with emails/phone calls to answer any questions prior to going and Ash (property manager) was on top of everything while we were in Cozumel. I would highly recommend this condo to anyone going to Cozumel.
