Guest Reviews

• larry (2/5): - First night they were having a wedding and was told we couldn’t eat there.We had to go into town to eat. We had to leave the last night because they were going to shut down because of construction. Was told we would be reimbursed but it hasn’t happened yet
• Jeffry (10/5): - All was amazing second time there.
• Kristy Lee (10/5): - Hotel was beautiful. Service was excellent. Richardo was very helpful though out our stay. He was polite and willing to help with whatever we needed. I definitely recommend this place if you want to get away and relax.
• Thomas Ray (10/5): - The staff were awesome
• Anna (10/5): - I love the beauty and quietness the ocean sounds is all you can hear from the moment you arrive until you leave but the sound stays with you forever I love this place the staff is so friendly breakfast is my favorite meal I never want yo leave I will stay longer next time
• Jennifer (10/5): - Beautiful view of the ocean.
• Lowell (10/5): - The AC should be turned on earlier than 2100
• Kristi (8/5): - This location is amazing! Isolated, relaxing and kinda rustic. Not really much air conditioning. It only comes on at night. The staff took great care of us.
• Karyn (10/5): - Beautiful property and very friendly staff
• C6027OQsarar (10/5): Beautiful Views and Beautiful Hotel - Beautiful views of the ocean right from your room. The food here is also delicious. I had the coconut shrimp and it was a 10/10. Overall stay was amazing, hotel staff was friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be staying here again, cannot wait to return!
• Caitlin (6/5): - The view was amazing. But the room lacked certain comforts and cleanliness for the price. No tv, no fridge, dirty bathroom and shower. The power also went out multiple times during our stay. We also had no air conditoning until after 9pm. When you pay thar much for a room you should be able to have AC on demand. And with the power outage, we didnt have any AC until like 11pm. They also were going to make us pay for bottled water, and my aunt complained so we didnt have to pay. No other hotel i have stayed at in cozumel made us pay for water and was always give as complimentary. Staff was great. Food was great. Bike rentals were good. Scenery good. Pool was nice. Hotel room, unclean, lacking in certain comforts you would expect for a $300 per night room. Not sure i would reccomend staying here. Although beautiful, price is too high for what you get.
• UBALDO (10/5): - I really love this place. Even though is in the other side of the island, the peaceful atmosphere, the sound of the ocean and the stars in the night sky makes it a great place to stay.
• I5695 (10/5): NEVER ENOUGH - 17 years since our first stay, we still can’t find the words to describe Ventanasalmar. It’s just never enough. You’ve got to experience it for yourself. 15 days in the “Tree House”……and every second of it superb and unique. The “surprises” up there are keepsake memories. Try it sometime, you’ll see! Miguel, Cynthia,Moy and the entire staff amazing. We’ve developed such a bond with them over time and truly think of them as great friends. Ownership has done a remarkable job with subtle changes that only enhance the experience more. Nicole is doing a phenomenal job with daily operations. All we know is, there’s no place we’d rather be.

• gregpN2366NK (10/5): Breathtaking view of the ocean from every room! - If my wife and I could give this place a 5+ stars we would! We found this hidden gem the last time we visited and looked it up. We decided to try it because it was so remote and we wanted to unplug. It is the only hotel on the non commercial side of the island. It is run on a generator because there is no power to that side(the east side of the island). Miguel, Omar and Manuel were excellent as well as the rest of the staff that we did not get their names but were very friendly and took care of all our needs. We have stayed in other hotels on the other side and for us this does not even compare. With all that said, if you are looking for a 5 star luxury experience this may not be the place for you. If you are looking for a small quaint place with others that are looking for quiet relaxing atmosphere with staff that become like family then this is the place for you! It is an older facility that could use some touch ups but that would not keep us from coming back and being the only place we will now stay when we come back. The food is “delicioso” and breakfast is included if you book through them. We did not rent a car because we wanted to just stay put and relax and it served us well for getting refueled for going back home. Next time we may rent a car to have more options but for us it was not needed this trip. Just some things to know, the air conditioner is only available from 9 pm to 7 am due to running off a generator. This trip we did not even need to turn it on. We kept the doors open to hear the waves crashing outside our balcony and at night would get down to 70 deg and was perfect temp. The views are amazing, the sunrises out your window to wake up, the stars at night are breathtaking, the staff is hardworking and wonderful and we found a “home away from home” here. Met great people and was overall one of the best vacations we have ever experienced. We highly recommend Ventanas Al Mar!
• Julie (10/5): - This is a spectacular place. The views are just beautiful. Our room was spacious and beautiful. The beach could use some cleanup. The decking by the pool needs some repair. Great stay!
• Tom (8/5): Solid choice away from the buzz - My wife and I stayed in room 22 for three nights. We were generally pleased with our decision to stay here. This is a place to get away from the crowds. But not to be pampered. Some guests will love this. If your idea of a vacation is to be pampered, this may not be the place for you. Since this is the remote side of the island, most know this already. Pros: The atmosphere is very chill. "adult only" helps with that. The friendly staff always aimed to please. The sandy beach delivers nice ocean to swim in when the winds die down. The restaurant has a nice menu and can be very good. Also very pretty in the evenings and felt comfortable. Views from our room were hard to beat. Room was clean. Pool was clean and pleasant. Cons: Rooms are very basic. Bathroom small and basic. The small pool can get crowded if everyone came at the same time. No bathroom in the common area. If we needed one, we had to return two flights to our room Uggh. (lower floors are better to have). The hotel seems to be run with a skeleton crew. And at peak dining hours, it showed. We often waited longer than we wanted, for drinks or for our food. The effort was always sincere, but with only one server, it was difficult. Quality of food lacked consistency. One night, the pasta was fantastic, the next night, it was not. The tortilla soup was the same. Best I ever had on Monday. What the heck...on Tuesday. We had a rent car and we needed it. All in all: a great place!
• Michael (6/5): - Never stayed at this property. I canceled weeks before staying at this property. I don’t understand why you’re company won’t issue a refund and leave me alone.
• Kathy (8/5): - Loved area. No coffee til 8. Had to make a reservation time to eat and place our order and our order came out wrong, but it was beautiful wonderful quiet and relatively empty right on top of the ocean.
• Derek Allen (8/5): - Dinner needs to be as good as it used to be.
• Theresa (10/5): - Location is amazing! Very quiet, no tourists, own beach, rooms directly overlooking the water. Omar greeted us upon arrival and was very helpful, always making sure we had everything we needed! Miguel was the MVP of our trip!! He went out of his way to be sure we were taken care of, spoke and understood English, served us snacks and drinks by the pool. Pool warm and clean, nice loungers on the beach and poolside. Between ocean breeze and fan we never had to use the ac. We loved it at Ventanas!
• mathiasr967 (10/5): Tortuga Rum you don't have to be drunk to appreciate it. - I wouldn't even know where to begin but by saying "YOU GOTTA SEE IT FOR YOUR SELF" I don't think there was any down time from the moment we arrived. Ventanas Al Mar is above and beyond in everything they do and there's access to the beach without saying access to the beach requires a 45 minute van ride. I felt catered to and pampered and that wasn't even my goal when I arrived but they made sure it happened and I loved it.
• Colleen (10/5): - Absolutely loved our stay, from the peace and quiet to the beauty of being on the ocean, to the friendly and welcoming service!
• that_patilly_life (10/5): Another AMAZING Stay at VAM - We just enjoyed another spectacular stay at VAM. We cannot wait to return. A special shoutout to Miguel and Omar, Nikol, Liz (our amazing housekeeper) and the entire team. Not to forget Chef JENNY & her amazing kitchen team who kept our foodie needs met from breakfast to dinner. We loved it so much we ended up extending twice. Also, BOOK the Treehouse!!!! It's such a fun room and the shower is incredible. See you again soon!!!! Also, book direct and breakfast is included.
• Jeremey (10/5): - Great get away
• Robert Richards (10/5): - Beautiful natural location with friendly cooperative staff serving good food
• Patricia D (10/5): - This is our second time staying here. It is the opposite of what you will find on the other side of the island. In the best way. It is quiet, private, secluded, and has excellent service. The food is delicious and reasonably priced.
• leeannf875 (10/5): Wonderful! - What an amazing place! We had a great stay on the “wild” side of beautiful Cozumel. The rooms are great, staff is amazing! Omar and Miguel and everyone did all they could to make our stay unforgettable. The lobster was amazing for dinner! Gracias. We will be back! .
• LVworldTraveler (10/5): Secluded, Relaxing, Miles of Beach, Awesome Stay - Our third visit here. Difficult to describe…in a good way. On the quiet, east side of the island. Away from cruise ships and cheap souvenir shops. Perfect place for a romantic getaway, a friends vacation, or a place to relax or decompress. Hotel has a small number of rooms, but not crowded at all. All rooms face the sea and crashing waves of a rock break. But, there’s miles of flat sandy beach attached as well. Rooms are spacious, comfortable and clean. Keep in mind, this is on-the-beach and in a sea salt air climate takes its toll on things. Meals are extremely well thought, prepared and presented. Prices are very reasonable. Service is above and beyond. Everyone is smiling and happy. Looking forward to returning.
• Kayla (2/5): - I’ve never left a negative review before but I feel like I have to be honest. The photos of this property are very misleading. It is very run down. There were multiple windows to condos that were boarded up with ply wood. The bannisters on the stairs leading up to our room were broken off. When we checked into our room, one of the beds had the sheets and comforter balled up just laying on the bed. The toilet had urine in it. When the AC finally kicked on at 9:15, it took hours to cool the room down. I also developed some safety concerns immediately. I was on this trip with my mom, who is in her 50s. She tripped on uneven walkway areas twice, falling both times. The sliding door to our room didn’t lock. By the time all these issues were apparent, it was late at night so I waited until the next morning to try and find staff to raise my concerns. I couldn’t find anyone. There’s not really a front desk or lobby area. I tried messaging them on their what’s app contact and got no response. Given the safety concerns, we checked out. I requested just a partial refund through Expedia, who checked with the property, who declined. We were very disappointed but were able to find a condo that was much safer at another property.
• Tammy (8/5): - Beautiful area! Very remote. Staff was friendly and helpful. Perfect place to relax since it it away from everything.
• Claire (10/5): - Beautiful setting, very peaceful. A place to completely relax
• Karl (10/5): - Located on west coast, on ocean, so soothing.
• Seaside24202950287 (10/5): Rustic, Romantic, Relaxing - Breath-taking views of the emerald green Caribbean Sea, sparkling sunrises, relaxing sunsets, and mesmerizing 3-D stars at night. Friendly and welcoming staff—Miguel in the mornings to start your day with a smile and fresh fruit and coffee, and Omar at night with 1st class service for the romantic dinner to reminisce on the events of the day. Rustic and simple yet elegant rooms with constant ocean breeze and crashing waves to set a super chill mood. A/C at night from 9pm-8am only. Not what everyone is looking for, but Ventanas al Mar is EXACTLY what my husband and I were looking for on our 23rd anniversary vacay. We are hooked for life! VAM Exceeded all our expectations with its ability to completely reconnect us with each other and to rest our bodies and minds from the American rat race.
• 864leahm (10/5): Spectacular and unique place to stay in Cozumel - A slice of paradise one can only experience on the east side of Cozumel! Truly a unique place to stay, with the sound of the waves all night long. I recommend room #19 which has spectacular ocean views and a long view of the sandy beach. At night, the star gazing is something you can't get in too many places...far from the the crush of the city, the stars seemed 3 dimensional in the sky. Dinner at the restaurant was very good, with some.fresh fish. Breakfast is included and was service to your table from the menu. Dinner for 2 with a glass of wine and a soft dri k was about 65 USD. Very romantic.
• Michelle (10/5): - Had a wonderful time. The views and the service were all superb
• Barry (10/5): - They working on the upstairs units from an earlier hurricane so the hotel was pretty much vacant. I forgot I paid for an upgraded room with a refrigerator. When we checked in nobody said anything and the refrigerator wasn’t plugged in so we didn’t use it. Last day management said we had the upgrade and all I had to do was plug the refrigerator in. I would have used it if I knew that. All the employees were super nice.
• Mark (10/5): - Beautiful and away from everything. What a perfect place to relax, unwind and enjoy. The staff is awesome, the food was delicious and the location was beautiful. Had a wonderful visit.
• Melissa (2/5): No electricity and no refunds! - We were traveling with my grandparents and one is on oxygen but it does not say that anywhere on listing so we went and explained we have to have electricity for her to breathe. They do not answer the phone so i drove 30 mins there n spoke to Miguel n he said no problem but $400 n didnt stay is outrageous!! I have seen other hotels that are honeat about the lack of electricity but unfortunately this hotel is not.
• rodolfop516 (10/5): Stunning hotel - The grounds of this hotel are stunning, completely isolated with no neighbors except a bar next door that you would t even know is there. At most times it feels like you have the entire pace to yourself. The private little beaches in the back of our room with a hammock was definitely a favorite.
• Sherrie (10/5): - The staff was amazing and kind. We were the only couple there due to the hurricane however they still kept the resort full functioning as if it were full. My only complaint is that there is some upkeep needed and the food prices are extremely overpriced. Elli and Omar were very kind to us and helpful when it was time to evacuate. We will absolutely be back and we cant wait to be there. Thank you for an amazing memory!
• KAREN (10/5): - Omar and Miguel were the best hosts. We will stay again.
• Sharon (10/5): Exactly what as described! - Beautiful location and great ambiance. Everything was exactly as described.
• albina (10/5): - If you are looking for quet place with no street lights or pretty much anything within 30miles radius this is the place for you. Ocean front, sound of waves, super friendly stuff, amazing food! Not to mention stargazing! You can see every little star up there! Easy and enjoible ride to many swimmable beaches, reefs, town etc. We loved everything about this place. I can highly recomend it!
• LVworldTraveler (10/5): A great off-the-grid hotel. Very comfortable. - We will continue to return for the comfort, tranquility and relaxation. Though we live nearby on the mainland in Playa Del Carmen, we enjoy spending a few days here each year. The staff is always inviting, helpful and professional. The rooms are spacious, comfortable and clean. The location is AWESOME! We enjoy the quietness and seclusion away from the populated west side. Days of reading, sunning, walking the beach, cooling off on the pool. Excellent breakfast starts the days. Romantic dinners after sunset. Full bar available all day. If you want a little entertainment, walk next door to Coconuts tourist bar. Open in the afternoons only (closes before dark). Have a cold beer and watch the cruise ship tourist come and go. Remember before arrival: If you taxi out, get the driver’s number and agree on a pick up date and time. There are no passing taxis. WhatsApp the driver the night prior to departure for confirmation. All rooms (except treehouse) face the sea and receive a good breeze. While a little more $, we enjoy the lower rooms (1-8) as they step out to the sandy decks with sun beds. Bring a lot of sunscreen.
• Erick (10/5): - Great
• LISA NOEL (10/5): - This place is the apotome of anti-big resort. If you love walking on soft sandy beaches, hearing the waves and bird song, and having any need met by some amazing people, then this is the place for you.
• debby L (10/5): - Excellent service
• Edie (10/5): - This hotel is dreamy. If you love the ocean and the sound of waves and barefeet and sand... this is your hotel. Limited AC, lots of ocean breeze. No TV. Just sea and sky.
• Lawrence (10/5): - We truly loved and appreciated everything about this place. Ellie and the crew were absolutely amazing. My husband has cancer and this will be his last vacation for awhile. The view from every angle was truly spectacular. Thank you everyone Amy Lobato :)
• that_patilly_life (10/5): First time & definitely not last… - Just got home from our 3 night stay and we have nothing but amazing things to say about the property, location and service! We stayed in room 24 the room was beautifully decorated and very functional. Plenty of storage and both the ceiling fan and ocean breeze helped keep temperatures cool. Unfortunately it was a bright full moon the entire stay so we missed out on seeing a sky full of stars but next time for sure. The daily included breakfast (when booking direct) was a wonderful way to start the day as was the coffee station set up downstairs in the common area by 7am. The menus had a variety and something for everyone. The bed was comfy and filtered water was delivered daily, although we stopped at a store on the way from the airport to pick up a few water bottles and beer. Service was outstanding and grounds were kept well maintained. While this was our first visit to VAM, this will for sure not be our last.
• I5695 (10/5): A Special Place - We love the words used to describe Ventanas, even we’ve tried several times. There aren’t any! We go all the way back to 2005 and the days of Coco and room #1 being a 2-story. Back then we’d spend days all alone. The setting is unmatched anywhere. Ventanasalmar doesn’t compete with it, it compliments it. Its little idiosyncrasies are welcomed. Charm, beauty & patina. We’re amazed how well everything is kept….in such a harsh environment. This go around we divided our 2 weeks between the Tree House and old #1. The Tree House. OH MY!. A complete different perspective of the property/landscape. The room and SHOWER to die for! Access is the spiral stairs (from the days of room #1) genius! Though we could go on & on……..we’ll do it again next year. Mark & Alison Virginia Beach, Virginia
• Robert (10/5): - Absolutely loved it! Secluded, scenic, breathtaking sunrises, friendly staff, clean & good food. Beach is perfect. Clean sand and gorgeous water. Surf school is only 1km down the road.
• Wendy (10/5): - This is definitely a “get away from it all” place. It’s also a lot like stepping back in time, because the area is very undeveloped and isolated. Air conditioning is only available at night, but there is a lot of wind and ocean and pool water to cool you off during the day. The sound of the waves crashing is constant, if you like that sort of din… I liked it. The panoramas are incredible no matter which direction you look.
• Wendy (10/5): - Breathtaking views… like going back 50 years…no TVs, just waves crashing and birds chirping… no stinky car exhaust, just ocean air
• Wendy (10/5): - It’s like stepping back in time 50 years. The views are beautiful. The area is completely undeveloped. There are no televisions. You hear the crashing of waves constantly and see the stars at night.
• Sally (10/5): - We loved the guest-house style and vibe of this hotel and the excellent hospitality of all the staff who were warm, welcoming, and helpful in all respects. The beach front was beautiful and clean. Everything about this place was lovely. For honky tonk, “Coconuts” is next door.
• John (10/5): - If you can, imagine this: you're in Mexico and you and your partner have the whole beach to yourself -- no kids, no crowds, no kidding! Just beautiful beach stretching as far as your eye can see; great ocean breezes, quiet (but for the crashing ocean waves), and hardly anyone else around. The hotel itself shows some signs of wear, and with no TV or fridge, staying here may take some getting used to; but, if it's solitude and peace & quiet you desire, this IS the place. Also, the staff is wonderful, the drinks are great, and the food is delicious and reasonably priced. A perfect getaway to revel in the beauty of nature, and to recharge your inner peace!
• John (10/5): - Ventanas is quiet. The Staff is great ! There is not the craziness that you get at the all-inclusives. Not a 5 Star, but it does the job and we feel like we on on vacation and come home feeling refreshed
• Daniel (6/5): Beautiful location but … - If you are a sea side lover and or biker this is the place to go. If you need internet connection, hot water at every shower, clean pool towels and good food with good service. You may want to consider another adress. We go back for biking and swimming.
• UBALDO (10/5): - We love our stay at Ventanas because is located in a great place where we feel in peace, away from everything in addition to having a great access to the sea/ocean and the view was amazing. The night sky is another beautiful view to see. We would definitely stay again. The customer service was also amazing.
• Brian or Julie (8/5): - OVERALL: Small, adults-only, boutique hotel in an isolated area. If you want to escape the world with a book under a palapa, this is your place. If you want 5-star accommodations with activities and service to your room or palapa, this is not your place. LOCATION: Remote. At night you can see the stars. The beach is very soft so not possible to take a long walk, but a hike/bike trail along the coast. Avoid swimming or snorkeling due to large waves. A 10-minute walk is Chen Rio beach with a rock barrier so you can wade. Also, a beach restaurant. ROOM: Clean with tile and stucco. Dresser with drawers but no closet or place to hang clothes. Spring bed not comfortable if used to memory foam. AC from 9pm-8am but we preferred the breeze. Soap, shampoo and drinking water but no hair dryer, TV, or coffee machine. The toilet area shared the same floor as shower so was often wet. AMENITIES:  Lounge chairs around the pool and beach, with several palapas. Games and cards provided. No water activities or equipment. No standard room service or drink service to the beach. Internet was slow and sporadic. Cell phone hit and miss, best standing on upper floor walkway. FOOD: Hotel offers breakfast, lunch, dinner with many options. Prices reasonable. Most meals good, several spectacular, though two had undercooked vegetables, pasta. Coconuts bar is also next door. STAFF: They do everything possible to make your stay enjoyable. Only negative is we were questioned about our tip during checkout.
• Michael (10/5): - Ventanas al Mar is a little slice of secluded heaven! We enjoyed every minute of our week stay - they hit the mark on everything; from the housekeeping to the dining. Looking forward to our next trip there.
• Lisa (10/5): My new favorite place!! - ABSOLUTELY love this place!!! If you are looking for a relaxing, quiet, away from everyone place to stay this is your place. All you hear every evening is the sound of the waves, the staff is very friendly & will assist with any requests you have, food is wonderful, rooms are cleaned daily, can walk to the restaurant/bar next door if you choose, have a stretch of beach all to yourself, pool, many chairs arranged around the property you can move, they give you beach towels, bring drinks & food to you on the beach or by the pool. The entire staff is amazing. We will be back every year. (No TV's in the room but you do get WiFi.) A great place to completely unwind and relax!! LOVED IT!!!
• Elly (6/5): - It's nice but it needs some improvements. The location of the property is beautiful. The views are fantastic. We loved hanging out on our porch, although there was a broken broad on it and it didn't feel totally secure. We stayed in the corner room (on the south side of the property). The king size bed was very comfortable and listening to the ocean waves crash all night was very relaxing. A couple complaints about the room was the ceiling had a place where it looked like it could fall off at any time, it didn't during our stay but when knows when it will go. And then the bed had sand in it already before we had ever got into it. So we aren't sure if the bed sheets were new or not. We enjoyed a nice dinner the first night. It was overpriced but still enjoyable, food was good but drinks were just okay. But breakfast the next morning was not enjoyable at all. Again overpriced and neither dish was filling or satisfying. The beach is a fun beach to walk on but it's hard to fully enjoy with all the garbage. I understand the trash is a never ending battle but there doesn't seem to be any effort to even try to clean up the area close the hotel.
• Judy (10/5): - I really enjoyed my five days here, very relaxing and the beds were so comfy! Everyone here is so nice and attentive to your needs. The food here is excellent! Try the banana pancakes in the morning, just delicious and beautifully served. The maids are so friendly and do such a great job on my room. Thanks for all you do!
• David (10/5): On thedwater - Ventanas al Mar, especial room 1, is awesome. Good food and service, beautiful beach when there is no sargaso, a joy to spend a couple nights
• Gregory Alfred (8/5): - Location is awesome adults only needs an ice machine staff was good but really stingy with ice
• Bryan (10/5): - The entire staff was very friendly, efficient and helpful. The rooms were made up daily during our 8 days stay and the food was excellent with a big menu. I recommend this resort for a quiet vacation.
• Cliff (8/5): - If you're looking for a secluded, quiet vacation...this is the place. The rooms were clean and maintained daily. The onsite meal service offered variety and quality. The pool was clean and well maintained. The beach area adjacent to the hotel was very nice. If there was one thing I would offer as a suggestion would be loungers and umbrellas on the beach. If there was anything you needed, it was happily provided. Great stay!
• Lee (10/5): - Luxurious and relaxing
• Jay (10/5): 25th Anniversary getaway. - We had an amazing experience staying at Ventanas Al Mar. It was very remote and very private. The staff members were very helpful and kind and went out of their way to make our 25th anniversary very special. We had a great dinner with rose petals everywhere and then we got a surprise in her room with rose petals and candles everywhere. The view was astounding. You literally sleep by the waves. Our only complaints was that there is no air conditioning during the day and it does not come on until late at night. However, there is typically a breeze coming through the room most of the time. We really enjoyed our anniversary getaway.
• andrew (8/5): - An absolute paradise of place; great location, beautiful setting: ocean views, waves, constant breeze, it is so relaxing.
• Rodolfo (6/5): - Beautiful and unique location with friendly staff but poorly managed and maintain.
• Christophe (8/5): A beautiful escape on the East Coast - - positive points: great location, nice and refined property, amazing view, friendly staff - to be improved: service flexibility, beach cleanliness, no gym nor yoga room, meals quality
• Crystal (6/5): - Great place to get away for a few days without a lot of people. Right on the beach; beautiful. Morning staff was excellent, check in staff not too much, too busy taking care of everyone else. Promised to arrange massage to come to property totally forgot- again preoccupied with other guests. No apologies- like oh well no big deal. The one thing I wanted on my vacation and was sooo looking forward to.
• Anthony (10/5): - Beautiful property with amazing staff. Food was some of the best we had. The staff cound not have done a better job. Thank you to Omar and Miguel.

• JUSTIN (10/5): - I LOVE how beautiful and quiet it is out there. We have stayed multiple times and we are impressed every single time, but nothing compares to how AMAZING the staff is. They are always so kind and helpful and make the stay worth it every time!!!! Love it there!!!
• Alejandra (10/5): - This was a perfect gateway for us. Love the quite, unique place to relax and enjoy life closer to nature. Best place we have been for a while. The service is excellent, friendly with very special people making your stay unique. Everyone has made our stay amazing and especially Paulino who we thank for his overall attention to every single detail. We will be back, that's for sure. THANK YOU
• Nicole (10/5): Peaceful, charming, beautiful. - Heavenly-nonstop rustic charm. No TVs, spotty WiFi, peaceful vibes. perfect to disconnect.
• Jan (8/5): - It is a Beautiful and peaceful boutique hotel. The staff was very nice and helpful. The only downside was that room was very hot and there was no fridge.
• James (10/5): - Amazing, amazing, amazing !!
• Philip (10/5): - Beautiful ocean views. Very friendly and conscientious staff. Perfect mix of island vibe, Mexican and Mayan culture. This is NOT a highly commercial all inclusive resort. It is a quaint, safe and off the beaten path jewel.
• John (10/5): - Beautiful property on the wild side. Nice to get away from the city and just hear the waves. The food was great too!
• Victoria Anne (10/5): - The views are outstanding. The servers and food is also outstanding. Such wonderful people. If you want quiet and relaxing this is the place to go
• Cleidilene (2/5): - When we arrived on the hotel was a nightmare. Everything was nasty as can be. We walked way and we get another hotel to stay . We never ever recommend this hotel for everyone. Just horrible.
• Tyler (10/5): - Best place I have ever stayed. They go above and beyond to make your stay great. Could not recommend a better place to stay. The restaurant was amazing.
• brett (10/5): - Staff was amazing, views were majority ocean view and place was very clean
• Aline (10/5): - Complete disconnection of the stress. Full mind detox. Loved it. Simple but beautiful. Very friendly personnel. Lovely dinner setup. Will be back for sure.
• Melissa (10/5): - Seriously, one of the best resorts in Cozumel. If you are looking for a unique stay…this is it! It’s a very laid back place with only 19 rooms, and a handful of staff. If you like peace, the sound of the sea while you sleep, and a break from civilization….book now! Samantha took such great care of us with check in, information, our rooms, and checkout….even making sure I had coffee in the early am! Omar and Esteban are two of the friendly bartenders/waiters you will ever meet! Both of them are quick, funny, and a pleasure to be around! We can’t wait to return! Ventanas is quite literally heaven on Earth!
• Brenda (10/5): - We stayed for 4 nights! Omar, Estevan, and Mikal were awesome. We were treated as if we were family. Dining didn’t disappoint either. Nice, quite and clean place to just kick back.
• Todd Andrew (10/5): - An absolutely stunning location and property is paradise! Definitely the usual complete randomness that makes Mexico a blast to visit. Not for everyone though. The “Robinson Caruso” vibe might not work for some folks who can’t go with the flow.
• Charles (10/5): This View Can't Be Beat Anywhere! - The view is breath-taking! There's no better view on Cozumel! This hotel is on the "Wild Side" of Cozumel. The location is very secluded and private. Our hosts Omar and Esteban were so accomodating and welcoming. The food is absolutely delicious! They offer all three meals so you do not have to leave the site if you do not wish. The housekeeping staff is excellent and pays attention to details. Be aware the site is eco-friendly-in this case there is no air conditioning from about 7:00 am to 10:00 pm. But, in our case, that was not an issue as there was a constant breeze coming in from the ocean. The pool is well kept and cleaned every morning. "Coconuts" Bar & Restaurant is adjacent to the site and it's a fun and upbeat place to go. Ventanas is in the process of adding a beach bar too. The only improvement I would have to say (and this would not keep me from visiting again), would be that our room #24 could use a bathroom update. It was clean, but dated. Overall, we LOVED Ventanas al Mar.
• Bonnie (8/5): A nice Option - In a more remote part of the island. Surf rough and not good for snorkeling but this was part of the appeal. The staff and food were excellent views from hotel are beautiful This was a more quiet side of the island but quite enjoyable and it’s a small island so nothing is a great distance to drive I would definitely stay again
• Nicole (10/5): - Very, very limited cell service at this property, which I appreciated. There is no fridge in room which didn’t bother me but I know some people wouldn’t like that. Malo (spelling?) was incredibly accommodating. He recommended the cheesecake which was addicting. Breakfast was delicious. Despite ordering the same vegetable omelette every morning, it had slightly different variations of vegetables and sides came every time. The coffee was fresh and tasty. I loved the quietness, quaintness and remoteness of this hotel. As I have returned to home in my city, I already miss listening to the sounds of the waves crashing against the rocky shore and feeling the ocean breeze through the night.
• Cassandra (10/5): - Everything was great! The only thing if you rent a car be sure you are back before 8pm or you will have to talk to the cops to get back through since they close the road to the backside of the island. Other than that it was great!
• Kristen (10/5): - The staff and surroundings are incredible. Breakfast and dinner were delicious. The ocean views and waves were breath taking. A slice of paradise on this beautiful island.
• Jam (10/5): - An amazing place Staff was excellent
• sandra (10/5): - Ventanas Al Mar is a wonderful retreat from crowded resorts. Everyone there is welcoming and every meal we had was delicious!
• lauralee (10/5): - If you are looking for a remote, peaceful stay to recharge then this is it! The on site food was all wonderful and very very reasonable for Cozumel (the prices next door at Coconuts were almost twice the cost); they ask you to preorder your dinner selection & pick a time so that it will be ready. No mini fridge in the room but they will keep some items cold for you in their fridge. No center reception but the employees greet you in the central outdoor seating area. They could not have been more accommodating! We rented a car for half our stay and that was plenty. There’s a great bike and walking path that goes in front of the hotel and morning sunrises and evening stars are wonderful!
