    Check off all the boxes

    El Cid La Ceiba was located right in the harbor where all the Cruise Ships come in. This may be a sore sight for some, but we found it interesting. The resort could use some up dating, but overall all our needs were checked off. All the staff were very helpful. The only issue was how the free transportation was explained. There will be no one at the airport to meet you, even though the letter of instructions says there will be. You have to get your own taxi and then give the receipt to the resort for reimbursement upon arrival. The snorkeling on site was good.

    Family vacation

    We had a great time on our family vacation. This was our sixth trip to El CID and we will likely come again.

    Sat on the beach, did some snorkeling, eating lots.

    What a great place. Rooms were comfortable. The food was amazing. The weather was pleasant. Not too hot not too cold. The staff is amazing, very accommodating. But most of all, Roger! Who did all the entertainment. Nicest guy you’ll ever meet. Remembers everyone’s name. And the entertainment he provides is second to none. Love that guy. And you will too. Highly recommended. Say hi for me when you see him.

    Below expectations

    Cozumel is known for its snorkeling and our family enjoyed doing that right at the property. However, there were numerous issues with the rooms we had that were not addressed and resulted in a less than optimal experience.

    El Cid is one of the best values in Cozumel

    My wife and I moved to El Cid after spending seven days at Iberostar Cozumel. While Iberostar is a great resort, the rooms were terrible and the cost was ridiculous for what we received. El Cid had excellent service and great food. If you do not need a large resort, then El Cid is a tremendous value and you will not regret staying there. The one downer is that their check-in process is slow and inefficient.
