Feels like home…

We really enjoy staying at El Cid/La Ceiba in Cozumel. Have been staying there since 2001 almost every year. Staff is always friendly and helpful, food is great and the rooms are clean and very comfortable. We have stayed at a few other places throughout the years, but no one else makes us feel like we’re home when we bisit Cozumel.

Basically its an old hotel on the water at a very fair price. The staff is great, the food is fine and drinks are not pricey. It's not the Hyatt but spend your money on other things! I will be staying there again in the fall.

Solo Birthday Trip

Everyone was so accommodating and amazing. It was my first international solo trip and also my birthday! The front desk sent a nice complimentary bottle of red wine to my room to say “happy birthday. The food was delicious and the views….absolutely breathtaking. I slept comfortably as my room was quite nice and comfortable. My stay was amazing and I definitely will make sure I return.

Everything was good, I just wished they notified me before reserving that it wasn’t an all inclusive. (When you are booking it says “all inclusive”) but be aware is for an extra cost.

Cozumel is a great place, but not

Cozumel is a buitiful place, but we were dissapointed from the hotel. The beach was not well-maintained, underwater different slabs and pieces of building materials. Directly opposite the hotel there is marine for 5 large liners. The hotel allows 1 internet access per person. When we asked extra acess code for the laptop- they give us the price $22 USD/day. Positive points: spacious room, great view, cleanliness of the room, breakfast buffet.

Room was filled with disinfectant smell for 2 days. Also everything is damp, have to crank up the AC to get the moisture out. And they have the guts to charge $12 for internet that is slower than my cellphone. They make you wear this stupid hand band during your stay meaning I have dive, sweat, telling everyone I am a tourist for the whole 5 days.Weird mattress with a hard crease on the middle. Cleanliness was good but the dinning table seems never been cleaned. Have to give them the thumbs up for the cold mini fridge, toaster, electric stove top, new microwave and basic cook and silverware. One time is too much.

I would NOT recommend this hotel. They cater to cruise ship people and not the people who are staying at resort. Once cruise ships leave, everything is closed in this area and no place to eat or seek entertainment unless you go downtown. Reception staff was not helpful, we complained about our beds having holes in the middle, only after multiple complaints one bed was fixed. They charged us an extra tax fee per night that went into play in 12/23. We booked our hotel pkg in 10/23 prior to this extra fee. We were told we should have been given option to decline this fee and we were not given this choice and they refused to refund our money. We were not all inclusive so we paid everytime we ate or drank at the hotel. During check out they wanted to charge us again for what we had the first day when we were at pool because pool wait staff did not mark it as paid. We had to argue with them and have other wait staff confirm we paid each time we consumed something. Reception staff was not friendly or accommodating. Food was good at El Cid, the activities director was fun and engaged with guests staying at hotel. But I would not recommend this hotel
