Family in Cozumel

Jim W. from United States, April 2, 2012

Stayed 7 days in March, 2012

We had a good experience. Home has way too much furniture but everything worked and Jannie was great. Anything that came up was handled immediately. Beach had rocks so entry was a little rougher. Had to move down a little for easier entry. Kitchen had everything. Plenty of fresh water for every room just in case. Daily maid and outside clean up sure made it a easier trip. We rented vechiles and got around pretty easiely without any problems. Went to the other side of Cozumel to Coconuts for lunch one day and played golf at Cozumel Country Club that was better than expected. Definately enough to do on the island. Yes we shopped at Mega and were back there several times without any issues. Mega makes shopping for yourselves a non issue. Scuba and snorkling and sailing all real close. Some of the bedrooms were pretty dark but the kids loved it allowing them to sleep without any issues. We had full family with 10 adults and one 16 month old. We cooked in 4 of the nights had catereded in from Rock and Java on arrival night that was great and do not forget their desserts are outstanding. We had extras that lasted several days. The carrot cake and brownies were out of this world. We did not do the on site cooking package because we ask each family group to be responsible for dinner one night. One night we had the people from Paradise come in and do massages for everyone. Hated to leave and would stay longer if possible next time. Rented a Hobie Cat one day and did the snorkel sail trip one day.

Our group has stayed at the Chango Villa and the Villa Dos for several years now. We all love the location of the villas and the villas themselves. There is never a problem when staying at either of these houses...

a Gorgeous Setting

jean c. from Interlochen United States, Sept. 8, 2011

Stayed 7 days in August, 2011

We had the most wonderful getaway setting for our family reunion, 40th anniversary celebration, and our daughter's marriage celebration all in one week at this beautiful place. We were greeted by one of the nicest people you'd ever meet, the owner, Janie,<br/> and later we met the property manager, Fulvio, who was so helpful in answering our questions.The three people who took care of the house and the grounds were efficient and friendly. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook for so many people, and we appreciated<br/> having distilled water in each room. We sat with our coffee on Adirondack chairs on the beach every morning, played volleyball before dinner, went snorkeling, and enjoyed Carlos and Charlies Beach Club next door and the little outside bar, where we met many<br/> interesting people.Our age range was 24 to 64 years, and there was something for everybody. There was music playing much of the day, but it was not loud. And it was quiet in the evenings.We spent many hours in the swimming pool. A real plus was free wifi and<br/> free phone calls to the US.I cannot imagine a nicer place to spend a week with friends and family. We have been to Cozumel 10 times, and stayed in many different places, but this is the best by far.

Perfect Hideaway

Sabrina R. from Port Naches United States, July 10, 2011

Stayed 6 days in July, 2011

This was our family vacation... my husband and I took our 5 kids, ages ranged from 13 to 32... Next door was Carlos and Charlies and The Beach Bar where we hung out and had tropical drinks and water activities close by for entertainment... <br/> Each morning we were picked up at the pier for days of diving and fishing.. 15 minutes away we were able to drive into town for the local fun, but at our vacation home we were able to tuck away and enjoy the intimacy of being a family with the congestion of other tourist. <br/> I would recommend this house, only thing I noticed was the musky smell in the bottom suite due to the proximity to the pool.

from Huntsville United States, Oct. 22, 2010

Stayed 7 days in September, 2010

Nice infinity edge pool, modern appliances-- even an electric juicer! You need a rent car if you want to go to town a lot, but we cooked bfast and lunch there. Private, but just a two minute walk from a big time bar and public resort with all the water sports. The dive boat will come to the pier three minutes walk from your pool. Great spot for a big family or dive group with six or seven couples. One of the nicer villas at a bargain price! My second trip there, but not my last.

Great Location for Groups

alison m. from New York United States, Dec. 18, 2009

Stayed 7 days in November, 2009

We went to Villa Dos for Ironman Cozumel with a group of 11 people. The house was so spacious we never felt crowded. The cooking staff were so kind and talented. Great food with local flavor. The location is perfect too because you are just next door to San Francisco beach and the local beach side bar /restaurant. The staff at At Home in Cozumel were very helpful with daytrips and answering local questions. The house had wifi and free long distance to the US & Canada. All in all highly reccomended. The one downstairs bedroom does get a bit damp/musty but this didn't compromise our stay in the room in the least.

Villa Dos - Epicurean Adventure in Paradise

Gail L. from Houston United States, June 29, 2009

Stayed 5 days in June, 2009

Villa Dos is an excellent vacation choice for adults with a relaxed lifestyle. It offers a unique opportunity not available at a resort or all inclusive - the ability to completely immerse in the local culture, food, and of course the tantalizing aquamarine waters just outside your doorstep. Our group of nine adults loved the layout - widely separated bedrooms offer complete privacy, but the central living/dining/media rooms provided a luxurious and comfy spot to gather for meals,surf the net, watch TV. <br/> And the meals - spectacular! We had chef Luis for the duration of our stay, and every morning woke to freshly brewed coffee, a hot breakfast and large platters of fresh fruit. Every evening Luis pampered us poolside with appetizers and special cocktails created to enhance the theme of the evening meal. Luis artfully combines fresh ingredients to make Mayan and Yucatan specialties - everything from Snapper Veracruz to a wickedly spicy mole. Every meal was completed with a frozen or flambeed dessert - to die for. Luis you are the greatest!<br/>Villa Dos is ideally located - walk five minutues down the beach in one direction to dive and snorkel boats - walk five minutes the other direction for a massage on the beach, parasailing or lunch with your feet in the sand at Carlos and Charlies. Recommended excursions include tours of Tulum and Cozumel Mayan ruins with knowledgeble guides. Also unforgettable -dancing under the stars on Sunday night in the town square with local families - grandmas to babies in strollers - all turn out for this event. Be sure to rent a car to visit the "wild" backside of the island - pounding surf on volcanic rock and huge sweeps of white sand and crashing waves make for memorable photos. <br/><br/>

The pictures and discription of the property are very misleading. The house is poorly designed, the lighting is horrible, like a nursing home. It is advertised like a six bedroom, but its only a four, with two creepy, old basement apartments, and the owners live in the house as well which is not comfortable. The house really is the worst we have ever rented hands down.

We used part of the house for a small management meeting. The property was beautiful, including architectural details such as tiling and paint. Many individual rooms with separate entrances allow privacy, but the common space is very suitable for a large group. We will be back with spouses.

Douglas G. from Las Vegas United States, Sept. 16, 2008

A group of 9 business oweners chose 700 Villa Dos as our retreat location. The accomodations were perfect. The staff was amazing and everything exceeded our expectations. Meals at the house were better than most meals we ate on other parts of the island. I would reccomend 700 Villa Dos to anyone who wants a hassle free vacation where you want to optimize your free time and enjoy the island.

Villa Dos - A Wonderful Vacation

from Flint United States, July 29, 2008

Stayed 6 days in July, 2008

Villa Dos is a beautiful ocean front home on San Francisco beach. The grounds and house are well kept and the pool is great. The beach area is very nice but I would recommend wearing water shoes as it is quite rocky at the shore line. Also if you plan on visiting other areas of the island or shopping downtown much a car is really necessary as it is several miles to town and taxis could get expensive after a while. We took our small children and we all had a wonderful vacation in Cozumel at Villa Dos! I would definately stay there again.

second time at Villa Dos

Brian K. from Carrollton United States, July 9, 2008

Stayed 7 days in June, 2008

This was the second time we stayed at Villa Dos, and it was still great. <br/>A couple of suggestions, however:<br/>1) Put a switchable light on the grill. Many times, we would grill after dark, and dive flashlights are okay, but sometimes you really need two hands...<br/>2) There are only two rooms who have access to the kitchen and living room with keys. The other rooms have a key to the gate padlock, which is good, but the other five rooms are locked out of the kitchen, unless they wake up the people in the two room next to the kitchen. You should provide keys to the other guests so they can get into the kitchen.

Sunsets at Villa Dos

Marissa F. from Excelsior United States, April 16, 2008

Stayed 7 days in March, 2008

The home was located on the beach and was so beautiful. The sunsets were amazing. The location was perfect close to town but yet far enough away that it wasn't crazy with cruise ship traffic. My teeage kids were able to still enjoy themselves at the Wyndum hotel so they were able to join kids their age. We could rent anything from any of the other facilites close to us. We felt that even though the place was clean and Jenny and David the owners were wonderful and warm and helpful, some of the rooms were a little musty. Also bring bug repellent. There are no seums after the sunset. We loved our cook for the week and the house keeper Rosa was sweet. We enjoyed ourselves tremendously. The days on the beach and the tidel pools infront of the house was wonderful. We saw crabs, and an eel. What a great week!!!
