Hi Angie, love your videos!! My husband and I are going to Cozumel end of July. We’re torn between the Iberostar and the Occidental. My husband really wants to stay at an all inclusive. I’ve read good and bad reviews on both. Do you have a preference? or do you prefer the food/rooms more than the other? Thank you so much!
@@TripswithAngie I know there rocky but summer time in playa and cancun there bombarded with seagrass during the Summer .Last year I went to Negril and that was the perfect ocean .I'm just looking for a perfect spot with no seagrass
@@GeorgeParas hi! Which resort did you end up going? We are also looking for a great beach in Cozumel. We have some credits to use for PDC but as you mentioned too much sargassum 🙁 Been too Negril 7 mile beach and Dominican Republic La Romana, after been to these beaches hard to settle for not a great beach.
The mexican restuarant was so dissapointing considering we are in Mexico... chipotle is far better. The ocean is extremely rocky, I disregarded this reading many reviews but should have listened, it makes swimming extremely painful and not enjoyable. Hate to be such a negative nancy, but cannot find one positive for this resort other than the cute mexican raccoons youll encounter roaming the property.

Iberostar also has minibars in the rooms, tennis courts, rifle games, and archery, in addition to all the amenities you listed! Loved our stay there!!
That's great!
This was by far the most helpful video we found on hotels in Cozumel. Just booked with Occidental. Thanks!
Glad you found it helpful
I booked the Iberostar Cozumel for this month based on your previous video thank you so much for the recommendation!
Have a great trip.
I’m guessing the rocky beach makes for better snorkeling? Is there a place with sandy beach and good snorkeling?
For good snorkeling, you need coral or sea grass. Galley Bay Antigua has a decent beach with good snorkeling.
We just got back! Cozumel is beautiful.
Where did you stay?
Definitely a favorite.
thank you much, I really appreciate this video, as we were looking for a different resort in cozumel 😎👍🏽🙏🏼❤️
Glad you found it helpful.
Loved all the videos Angie!! 270 days!!
Love to see this.
Great information! I’m surprised it doesn’t have more views.
Thanks!
Any recommendations when traveling with 5 kids and looking for a calm beach?
What did you think of Iberostar Cozumel in the video?
For carnival cruise do they only accept vaccine hard cards or can would a digital vaccine card suffice ? Thanks
The travel agent who booked your cruise can review the requirements with you or you can find them on Carnival's website.
Would the Fiesta Americana made it to the list if the beach was open ?
No.
Are the spa offerings included or do you pay separate for them?
Which resort are you asking about? Several are featured in the video.
I'm curious does the Iberostar Cozumel have a Seaweed situation or is it free and clear
Depends on the day
@@TripswithAngie Thank you for the response but can I ask you what are your thoughts on the Westin Cozumel. It looks Beutifull and close too Town

Hello! So glad you enjoy the videos. I'm sure.your travel agent will guide you to the right choice for you. Have a great trip!
We spent the day at Occidental food wasn’t good, grounds is beautiful small beautiful beach.
@@ShelbyA2LA I don't think it's fair to judge a resort on just one meal.
Have you visited the Melia Cozumel resort? If so, what are your thoughts?
No.
Between Iberostar and Occidental Cozumel. Which is your favorite?
My favorite way to visit Cozumel is renting a villa with a private chef.
When I hear Ala carte, I think 'in addition' ie costs more.
A la carte simply means you order off a menu.
@@TripswithAngie I suppose two things can be true. If you look at the definition, it means to order off a menu and indicates a separate price.
@@marquishaturner8956 In the video you commented on, it means an included restaurant where you order off a menu.
I'm torn between Melia Cozumel or Westin Cozumel. My Biggest 3 must have in a vacation is Good Food Phenomenal Beach and Being Close to Town.
You're booking the wrong location for a phenomenal beach. Cozumel's beaches are rocky.
@@TripswithAngie I know there rocky but summer time in playa and cancun there bombarded with seagrass during the Summer .Last year I went to Negril and that was the perfect ocean .I'm just looking for a perfect spot with no seagrass

@@suaveca I booked a trip to Westin Cozumel in July .The reviews I read and the People I spoke too online I think I made a Good Decision
My current advisor is telling me the island still has damage from the hurricane last year
Most of these videos are from November 2021 so you can judge for yourself.
Staying here currently this week. Very underwhelming, food is not great. Kind of dissapointed. Would not reccomend unfortunately.

*My review is for Iberostar. Sorry forgot to mention.
Okay.
