Book a hotel near Villa Blanca Reef, Cozumel

"Great hotel for snorkeling and diving. Nice property and super helpful staff, felt welcome right away! Food choices/buffet are not most extravagant, but it was enough and a little bit different every day. Dessert was cake every day, not much variety. It was slow season, though, and the hotel was not very busy, so maybe during peak season there is more variety. But the staff, waiters, etc. were very attentive and always helping! Highly recommend!"

"Good location for scuba diving. "

"We love to stay at the El CID and we’ve stayed here many times. The place is kept very clean and the people are amazing! Things I really like: the snorkeling from shore, the cleanliness, the people, the walkability of the area, and the views from the rooms. Things I don’t particularly like: the humidity is so bad everything in our room felt wet all the time including the bed and the food is not the best. The bed is also not the most comfortable and if the other person moves a little the whole bed moves badly. However, we continue to return time after time for the great atmosphere at the el cid. "

"Great staff food and drinks , only draw back is the steps up to lobby, with bad knees it was a struugle"

"The Villa Blanca Gardens is my three-star go to in Cozumel, and I have been there many times. It is away from the hustle and bustle and overcrowding of downtown when cruise ships come in and is generally unaffected by boat tourism. Many folks stay here for the dive, snorkeling and other activities that are available just across the street in front of the facility. One of the best parts is the beautiful garden that is the center of the surrounding rooms. Some good dining opportunities are within walking distance and the on-site Stingray bar & grill is ok for drinks and a quick bite. However, it is too far to walk to the main shopping areas down town, but it is closer than the all-inclusives further south along the West Coast. A great place to truly relax. I call the Via Blanca "my garden Villa get away' that helps me reset mind and body from my busy life back home. If you didn't want/need the all you can eat and drink crowded scene of the all inclusives, the VB is a good budget option."
