Great stay in paradise!

We had a great stay and the condo was clean, comfortable and very well equipped. The complex was very well maintained, and the location is quiet and tranquil. We went kayaking and the kayak is a very nice amenity, really solid and stable on the water. Carlos and Charlies is a great spot for lunch and drinks, walking distance from the condo. We would definitely stay here again!

Great Condo

Very nice 1 BR......kitchen very well stocked with all necessary utensils......shower had good strong water pressure.....because the unit had washer & dryer, we were able to travel light for the week.....LuLu visited daily to freshen up the room and Raul was available for any question......in addition to the condo being so nice, the overall property (grounds, pools, beaches, staff) was as nice as advertised.....hope to return to Cozumel soon and would love to find this unit available.....PS, beach towels provided....save the packing space and use theirs.

Fantastic!

8220 is a high quality 5 Star condo! We appreciated every extra detail the owners have provided from decor to daily maid service. They even had a Welcome Basket for us! We will definitely return again and suggest this specific condo to our friends & family in the future. Thank you Michael & Fulvio for everything! Nikki & Mike from NC

Amazing stay for a couples getaway.

This condo is perfect for a couples get away. My wife and I enjoy cooking. The kitchen is well appointed with everything you need In terms of pots and pans and utensils. Coffee maker worked perfectly. Plenty of water bottles on hand to refill the water dispenser. The bedroom has plenty of closet space for your hanging needs. The bed was comfortable and the air conditioning was the perfect temperature overnight. There is even a box fan which was a very welcome touch. The patio has a great view of the beach and pool. The pictures in the listing really don’t do it justice. The beach was nice. We walked to Carlos and Charlie‘s for lunch two of the days we were there. Overall, we would definitely stay here again. Only thing I wish they would change is the 10am checkout time since most flights leave the island later in the day.

Amazing Vacation at an Amazing Condo

My husband and I stayed in Michael's condo from July 11th through July 21st. We had a wonderful time sitting on the balcony and hanging out at one of the two pools (when we were not diving or running into town grab a bit of local fare). The condo is fully stocked with everything we needed to cook us breakfast, lunch and dinner when we wanted. There is 2 large stores on the way out of town as you are headed to the condo. We rented a car since it is located 14 km. outside of town - this was a plus for us as we like be able to get away from the crowds. The bed is comfortable and my husband loved that he was able to watch the "Home Run Derby" thanks to the satelite TV. I appreciated the free calls back to the states to check on the kids and the house. Daisy serviced our room daily (with the exception of Sunday) and did a fantastic job keeping the condo tidy. The condo is exactly as described and we will definetly be back soon. Have a great time!

Just about perfect!!

I really don't know what else to say, but I will. The condo was beautifully decorated, well equipped, and immaculate. The property was nicely landscaped, staff were super helpful, pool areas kept ship shape. The beach was nice, some interesting snorkeling to the right. A short walk to the pier where the dive boat picked us up every morning. It could not be have been easier. Fulvio was very helpful, answering any questions about the condo etc. This was a perfect vacation for us (couple late 50's early 60's). Just enough activity on the beach to keep things interesting, but also plenty of places for peaceful reading/snoozing. We did not have a car, but we have visited the island many times so we did not have the urge to tour. We planned our shopping trips around nights that we were going into town for drinks and dinner, so would be using a taxi anyway. We enjoyed this property so much we are hoping to book again for next year!

Exceptional Condo * Beautiful Property

You know that moment when you walk into the place you're renting for the first time? When we walked into Michael's condo at Residencias Reef, we just walked from room to room and smiled. It was lovely and nicer than the photos even! Lovely, cool, quiet and modern. The property itself is immaculate, the two pools are extremely clean and nice and everyone working at Residencias Reef is helpful, professional and nice. As to the area, we snorkeled every day but one. The snorkeling is not great out in front of the property - probably our only disappointment,- but lots of great snorkeling both north and south of the property, including north of the Money Bar and at Punta Sur. Renting a car is definitely a must. Per Michael's suggestion, my husband did a "resort course" dive with Jaime Mezzo and then a "real" dive via boat the next day. The hightlight of the trip for my husband. Jaime is an exceptional teacher and person! We enjoyed meals at both Alberto's and the Money Bar for right-on-the-beach dining. We loved our wonderful anniversary dinner in San Miguel at Casa Mission. We preferred to avoid town, except a few trips to the Mega for groceries as eating simple meals in the condo was a great balance to the wonderful seafood meals we ate out. We always felt safe and the only times we got stressed were when we tried to find specific places in San Miguel. Beware of the one way streets and the crazy people on scooters! We brought our own snorkel equipment as it is nice to throw it in your car and have it available when you are out and about and see a "that looks like a good place to snorkel!" beach and reef. We truly felt like Michael's condo was our "home" for the week as we watched our favorite Showtime shows on TV as well as watched a DVD or two. We would definitely make this condo our home-away-from-home again should we return to Cozumel!

Beach view condo is relaxing!

The condo is very attractive with a pleasing décor in earth colors. It overlooks a mangrove, with the sea, beach and palms beyond, a lovely view. The balcony furniture is comfortable; we had breakfast there each morning. I’m afraid the couch in the living area has seen better days—it’s quite squishy. The bedroom and bath are spacious and my husband and I slept soundly each night (which is not always the case at home). The overall area was generally quiet and peaceful, which we liked. The kitchen is well-equipped, though we did not cook, just had yogurt and granola (from Zermatt’s, the bakery in town—excellent) and fruit, and made sandwiches for lunch. Check out the fresh bolillos in La Mega for a great sandwich roll. We were glad to see coffee filters provided in the condo. One caveat. Don’t try the Jacuzzi unless you’re content with cold water. We decided to use it one coolish evening, forgetting that the hot water tank is very small. It took about 45 minutes to fill the tub; the hot water ran out in about 5 minutes, we’d wait 5-10 minutes and turn it back on for warm, not hot water. We even eventually added some pans full of boiling water heated on the stove. The beach is perfect with lots of palm trees for shade, if you want it, but plenty of sun too. The shallow water is welcome to non-swimmers. Snorkeling we saw a few fish, nothing spectacular but still beautiful and relaxing. The jet skis from the neighboring beaches seemed to congregate right in front of the beach for this property and the constant buzzing got to be a little annoying. I guess that’s part of the beach experience, but an iPod helped. It would have been nice to have beach towels provided; we ended up buying one in town not wanting to use the condo’s bath towels. All in all, we’d return to this condo. Our previous 5 visits to Cozumel were at the Presidente, which is hard to beat. However, staying at a condo was a different experience, and gave us the freedom of meal preparation, plus the spaciousness of the habitation. This is a high-end, well-built residential facility with an excellent, helpful staff.

Peace & Quiet

Everything about the unit was outstanding. Having a full kitchen was nice for morning coffee and breakfast so we didn’t have to rush out for food and could ease our way into the day. Plenty of very good beach bar/restaurants nearby, no need to go into town if you don’t want to. Beautiful beach although rocky but nothing a pair of water shoes couldn’t handle, lots of beach chairs and shade as well. Both pools were terrific with shady areas. We went on a snorkeling excursion and were able to bepicked up on the dock next door which was very convenient. I highly recommend this vacation rental if you are looking for a beautifully decorated high end space.

Beautiful property with very responsive owner and property manager.

The property is beautiful and is located on one of the nicest beaches in Cozumel. The condo has everything you would need for a perfect vacation. It is tastefully decorated with new appliances and a comfortable yet modern feel. We had the unfortunate luck to get hit by hurricane Beryl while we were there and the owner and property manager were very responsive and did everything they could to ensure our comfort and safety. In fact, I cannot think of a safer place on the island that I would rather stay. Needless to say the hurricane came and went and we still had a fantastic vacation. I would highly recommend this unit to anyone who asked.

Perfecto!

We stayed on this property before, but this was our first time in this particular unit. It is an exceptional unit and has many of the things that we frequently purchase at the local Chedraui when we arrive which was much appreciated. Fulvio was extremely responsive to any concerns and a cleaning lady came to change sheets and tidy up the unit every other day! There was nothing better than being on the balcony in the hot tub as the evening thunderstorms rolled through! Would 100% want to stay at this property again!

Perfect Property and Location

The property description is very accurate and was everything we needed for our 12 day vacation. We rented a car and after about our second trip into town we became very comfortable with navigating around to find everything we needed, including Distilled Water from Dori Pharmacy. This condo has a great view with proper function AC and ventilation. The kitchen is very well equipped and everything was in good working order.

About the host

Hosted by Michael Raimondo

Host profile image
Welcome to our Casa in Paradise! We (Michael & Julie) bought our condo when it was dirt and just a plan to be built back in 04-05 it was completed in 2007. We have in our opinion the nicest property on the entire island with sandy beach at our door and for miles to the South of us, we continue to go the extra mile to keep our place updated with new furniture, etc. to keep it fresh and new for ourselves and guests!

Unlike the property's in town and to the North, San Francisco beach is sand for miles, and we are literally a 5 minute boat ride to all the best dive sites to the South. The private, gated property at Residencias Reef is by far the nicest on the entire island and is up kept by a wonderful staff, we are confident you will agree.

We like spending as much time as possible in our place (we live in the mountains in the ski town of Mammoth Lakes, CA) and have decorated it for our guest to feel right at home. We hope to have you as a guest in our Casa and share the love for Cozumel!
