We've vacationed at Playa Azul over a dozen times over the years and we absolutely love staying there! The beach area and snorkeling are first rate! Plenty of shaded seating and the tiki bar is right there (Great Drinks & the Beer is COLD). The menu items are also first rate and you can't beat the breakfast bar! Great service, fantastic coffee, and plates made to order by the chef. Perhaps the main reason we keep going back is the wonderful staff! They are so friendly, accommodating, and dedicated to making your vacation fun and relaxing! Case in point, I accidentally dropped my wallet in a cab on the way back to Playa Azul and I didn't noticed it until 10-15 minutes after we got back. The front desk immediately got on the radio and tracked down the cab driver and he found the wallet and returned it! That's the type of over-the-top service the Playa Azul staff provides! We highly recommend vacationing at Playa Azul to anybody! We can't wait to go back in August!

We stayed 4 nights, and it was outstanding. Every employee was friendly and helpful and there was always work being done to keep everything running and clean, which is such a refreshing change after usually traveling in the US. We liked the smaller size hotel and not being in a high rise and our room was huge. The fresh flowers and blanket art were so fun to see every day and we all loved coming back to it. We walked to town once and it was 2.5 miles and felt completely safe and it was a nice walk. I would have walked it more often, but my teenagers preferred taxis which are everywhere and ready when you are for $10 each way. We hit up the happy hour each night and had food a few times and everything was great. Breakfast was nice that it was included and we could start our day full and not think about food for a while. Snorkeling at the beach was very good and we were able to see a lot of what we saw on a snorkeling excursion right on site.

The Hotel Plaza Azul is a good property, but there are much better places to stay in Cozumel. Frankly, the food and drinks are very expensive, the Internet was spotty and I had a lot of trouble working, tv was extremely limited, and the beach is small. We bought the most expensive room that had a hot tub on the balcony, and it was old and looked like it had not been used in some time (tub was dirty). The staff members were very nice, and it was clean, however. And the hotel is right on the ocean.

We stay at Playa Azul a few times a year. The location is great for us as it is a bit North of all the hustle and bustle. If you don' have your own transportation, you'll be using a taxi regularly. Located right on the water so it is a very peaceful location. Breakfast is included but it could really use some revamp as they serve the same thing daily and they've taken away the fresh waffle maker so we don't tend to eat there often. Lunch/dinner is bar food level but convenient if you don't want to leave the hotel.
