The staff and servers were very nice, but it as,it got more busy, they weren't getting to us often and drink orders were forgotten. The Al Pastor meat was so good. You could either go to buffet where they served most of the food, or order from a menu at the table. The coconut shrimp was excellent.”

Our driver was very knowledgeable about Cozumel. Our guide stopped at a tequila stand. We don’t drink alcohol so this was a waste of our time since it was out of the way. We were not asked if we wanted to stop and we would have preferred more time snorkeling.”

We also stopped at a local market. Fresh fruit, nuts, vegetables, & meat. In addition to other local items. Lastly treated to a local bakery where they bake in a wood oven. Highly recommend that you take the time to learn about the food & culture that’s off the beaten path.”

We were informed that the ownership "changed last week." They offered to put us back in a cab & when we inquired if it would be on their dime we were told, "absolutely not."

Others there also felt the same; some even had gone to the other location and…”
