We spent the day at Melia Cozumel and it was such a beautiful and relaxing day.
We drove from Cancun to Playa del Carmen, about a 45 minute drive. The ferry terminal is right in the center of town. It takes about 40 minutes on a huge ferry, I definitely recommend Ultramar over Wingate, they have a first class section that is much more comfortable.
Melia Cozumel is a small property but wonderful staff, friendly and accommodating.
Look at how beautiful it is, I love Cozumel. It is an island and has a different feel than the mainland. Things are more old fashioned and smaller. It is a big port for cruise lines so the downtown has lots of shopping and restaurants.
We were offered a delicious coconut cocktail with gin! Sounded strange but it was delicious. Lunch was amazing! There were a few courses but the octopus was outstanding, and beautiful. Plus the open air terrace with view of the water and the ocean breezes.
We were treated to a really cool Mayan Cultural performance after lunch.
Found this big guy wandering around.
We lazed around the beach, had a beach cabana for napping or reading, there were beach games set up, a bar and we had massages in the open air massage hut! It was the perfect day 💙
