Cozumel Trip Report Posted by Judy in the Northwoods on 10/27/02 Trip Report Oct. 19-26th Flight via US Airways went well. We stayed at the Reef Club. This is our
second time staying at the there.The service in the buffet restaurant is so so.
Some of the waiters will totally ignore you and won't bring your coffee, you
have to ask for it. The drinks are watered down, pretty hard to go on a good
drunk unless you drink beer. The beach area and pools are nice. We stay in the
Reef Regency Complex which is brand new and is very clean and the maids are
excellent as far as cleaning your room, restocking your supply of toilet paper
and clean towels. We went on the Wild Tours ATV tour which starts at Mezcalito's.
I highly recommend this tour, it is a lot of fun! Make sure you rent your own
bike for it is rough going and I couldn't imagine being on the back with someone
else driving. The Sand Dollar Dive operation is Ok. Cattle boats though. The
visibility wasn't as good as we expected. Maybe a little stirred up from
the recent storms. Thank god we weren't staying in Puerto Vallarta! Make sure
you ask the taxi drivers for their rate before you start going because they tend
to overcharge you. One time going to town the rate was 13.00 and the next it was
17.00! And 20.00 to the airport! The last time we were there (April 2001) the
rate from our hotel to town was 10.00. Quite an increase there. Also, the best
deals to be had we found were 1-2 blocks back from the main street. Also, the
food was excellent when you went to these quaint little places off the main
drag. We rented a car and drove to the other side of the island and found
Mezcalito's food to be a lot better than Coconut's but Coconut's view is nice
and music is great so I recommend stopping at both places! :) My husband Dave
had a race to the beach with a guy 20 years younger than him and he won the free
trip to the Reef Club, so we are going back next year for sure! "Say you saw it on Travelnotes.cc!" Questions, comments about the site? Contact the webmaster. |
