This is an older hotel, but it had everything we needed. The included breakfast is amazing with lots of variety. The property is right on the beach with beautiful views. The toiletries smelled really good. The staff was very friendly. They also gave us a welcome drink upon arrival. You can book snorkel and dive trips on site. The only negatives were that the hotel is a little dated and the water pressure in the shower is low. If you stay here, note that the water in the shower takes a while to get hot. Overall, we had a great time and would stay here again. The price is right for what you get.

Tropical elegance beachfront resort! We loved staying at Playa Azul Cozumel. From the excellent, friendly staff and the amazing large room with a jacuzzi to the beautiful beach and delicious food from both restaurants on the resort, we had the best romantic vacation! We will definitely come back! The resort was very quite, mostly couples and families. They had two open air restaurants. One was smaller and served the best hot breakfast (omelets prepared for you, and a hot buffet with mexican and american breakfast offerings), the breakfast buffet was included for us. They also served lunch and dinner too. The large open air restaurant had bands where you could dance and they had the best lime soup (myan recipe). The pool was just the right size and there was a children's pool too with a small playground. Our room was on the first floor, so we had easy access to the pool and beach. I loved the natural tropical surroundings of the resort. The beach was on the small side, but the resort had plenty of sand, palm umbrellas, and beach lounge chairs. The beach was the perfect place to watch an amazing sunset.
Relaxing quiet beach
Loved all the palm trees and flowering bushes on the resort.
Definitely get the lime soup (traditional Myan recipe)
We had a great hot free breakfast that was included for us.  Everything was delicious!

This place is older but it’s absolutely beautiful. The private beach is stunning . The snorkeling was outstanding and right in front on this hotel. The food was delicious, the lobster restaurant right across from it has live music and amazing food. The key lime factory is right across the street as well; it was so yummy. I would highly recommend Playa Azul.

Playa Azul has a small beach with a beach bar and pool. It’s located between the Westin and Islands beach club. If you are like us and want the same quality of food and beaches as the Westin, but don’t want to pay for it,Playa is the place for you. Clean, quiet, friendly service, our room had a great view. We liked our beach better for the snorkeling we did every day (beach is rocky). Recommend and would stay again

Attractive Mexican fountain at entrance not working. Poor first impression. Peaceful Old hotel, pealing paint ,cracks eveywhere. Good bar/food service at beach. Restaurant nothing special. Better restaurant across street.Breakfast included a plus. Attentive breakfast staff.Daily room cleaning good. No laundry service. Front desk ignorant of where to take dirty clothes.Not luxury but not too expensive either.Great snorkeling.

The hotel has a private beach which makes it very convenient if you want to relax all day at the beach. The AC in our rooms worked really well. The rooms and property are very clean. The buffet breakfast was included, and it has good options, including omelets a la carte, and the fruit was fresh and tasty. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We had dinner at the restaurant one day, food was just OK. The only downside is the location, the hotel is at the NW of the island, and since there is no public transportation nor Uber in Cozumel, we had to use taxi (which is very expensive) to visit downtown or other beaches. A taxi from the hotel to downtown was $300 pesos (nearly $16 dollars) for 6 people.
