"Great location, close to all sorts of restaurants and markets. Great staff, clean and helpful. The only reason I didnāt give it 5 stars is because of the constant rooster yelling from 5am until the late late afternoon, makes it impossible to get good sleep unless you are used to that."

Location is a little away from downtown which we found to be more quiet. Felt safe walking around even at night. There are several great food options within a few blocks. Would definitely stay again when in the area. "

First time to stay "in town" and we loved it. Walking distance to lovely restaurants and the waterfront; private, secure, gated courtyard and lovely room; loved the picture window to our private garden. Every member of Staff was so gracious and helpful and loved meeting one of the owners (Jim.) Be sure and rent a car; the Villa has off-street parking agreement with a neighbor; very reasonable rate. Already planning to return next spring (we were there in October.)

Iberostar Waves is my favorite resort on the island. I have stayed there 5 separate times. Iāve been scuba diving in Cozumel for 25 years and have stayed at many of the other resorts on island. Iberostar exceeds them all in my opinion.
