About this property

Casa De Jefe, Your Home in Cozumel

Let Casa De Jefe be YOUR home in Cozumel. Located just north of the main plaza and one block back from the beautiful Malecon, Casa De Jefe makes the perfect base of operations for your Cozumel adventure. Don’t waste your time in an impersonal hotel; feel at home in our home in Cozumel. A top floor unit with vaulted ceiling, this 3 bedroom, 2 bath unit has room to spread out and relax. The master suit features a king size bed and huge closet with a safe. The attached master bath has two sinks, so there is no arguing on vacation. The glass walled shower is large enough to share too! The first guestroom, the blue and white room, features a comfy queen bed and the other, the green room, features two twin beds. A hall bath with a large glass walled shower is between the two bedrooms.
Casa De Jefe features a fully equipped kitchen with gas oven and stove, fridge with ice maker and cold water supplied by bottled water. It has all the stuff you need: juicer, blender, toaster, coffee maker and bottle opener! With all the great inexpensive restaurants nearby, you may just want to use the microwave to warm up the leftovers. Hey, why cook in paradise, but if you want to, it is all there. Even better, Casa De Jefe has a full size washer and dryer! Pack light and just wash your clothes. No one will notice you wearing that same flowered shirt twice in the same week! Each bathroom is stocked with fluffy high quality towels and in the laundry room you will find additional beach towels. Each bedroom has its own mini-split air conditioning as well as the one for the shared area. Of course, being on the top floor you can often open the windows and enjoy the tropical breezes.
It is great to unplug on vacation, but if you are like me, you like to stay on the grid. Casa De Jefe features DSL Wi-Fi for your use. In addition to a local landline phone, we have a Vonage phone that will allow you to talk to the States and Canada as much as you want. (or as little ?) Friends and Family can call for the price they would pay to call Pennsylvania. (You don’t have to answer…) We have a couple of power strips to charge those electronic as well as a cord to connect your IPod to our small stereo.
Additionally, Casa De Jefe has a nice covered patio sitting area with a ceiling fan and ringed with plants – a nice place to relax in the evening or watch your family in the pool during the day. A large pool is there for your use and usually quiet. It has a nice shady palapa so you can sit by the pool out of the sun to enjoy a good book or a nap.
The complex features a gated parking area so your car, if you rent one, is secure as well as night time security staff. The area is safe and well lit for nighttime strolls. Located on the edge of the action, the area is peaceful at night, but you are a short walk to the nighttime action. There is a small public beach about one block north along the water with a beach club restaurant. South of the condo, restaurants and shops are everywhere. Be sure to check out Los Cinco Soles, one block west and 2 south, for great, quality souvenirs and memories. If we can help sharing our knowledge or love of ‘La Isla’ with you we are happy to do it. After all you will be staying in our home…

Perfect place and location!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay - the condo was perfect for our needs - lots of room, comfortable A/C, high speed reliable WiFi and a nice kitchen. We enjoyed the pool area on most days and it was easy to walk to the waterfront for a morning stroll, or go to Monino's or Hemingway's for sunset dinner. We also enjoyed the nearby brewery and distillery as well as the Maple bakery. Easy walk to El Centro and Mega, and grabbed a taxi back with our groceries. Would definitely stay here again!

Fabulous Accomodation

The apartment was excellent and a very good size, this suited us as it meant we could all have a bedroom each as we were all single travellers. The accommodation was extremely clean and well stocked and we wouldn't hesitate to book it again. Thanks for an excellent stay!

Our 2nd visit

Stayed with a larger family group in July and enjoyed it so much that we decided to rent the same unit again for our Dec trip even though there were only 2 of us. Clean well appointed condo with responsive management. Multiple good restaurants nearby (try Cafe de Isla for breakfast or lunch.) Very nice pool.

This is a wonderful place to stay for families and friends

Our small family stayed here for a week and had a wonderful time. The condo has great amenities and the kids loved the pool and trampoline. Having a washer and dryer and a kitchen with all the needed pots and pans was a big plus. The location is walkable to many restaurants and to one of the main town squares. It's a great place if your goal is to hang out, relax, walk, and have a comfortable place to call home base.

Our first choice to stay in Cozumel

At least our 4th stay at Casa de Jefe. Well stocked with what we look for in a condo for our scuba diving adventures - comfortable beds, a/c, plenty of room, laundry room with large sink for washing out our dive gear, well stocked kitchen and nicely decorated. Just a 5 minute walk to good restaurants, shopping and most anything you need yet the condo complex is private and mostly quiet. Richard is always quick to reply to our requests for booking.

Love this place!

Super comfortable and clean property. The beds were very comfortable, ACs in every room did the trick to cool the place down. The pool was also awelcome respite after warm afternoons walking the town. The location is very central walk to any downtown restaurant or bar. El Jefe's book about local places was spot on, we didn't use the kitchen much, mostly supported the local economy. Communication was easy with no glitches. We look forward to staying again.

Another great stay at Casa de Jefe

As always, the property is in immaculate condition and well equipped for all of my family's needs. We will return again and again. It is close to town and we walk to dinner and shopping every night. A short taxi ride to the beaches...it really is the best of both luxury and convenience! Thanks again :)

Amazing island home!!!

My friends and I loved this condo. So close to everything in town with access to many great restaurants and the beach is only a few blocks away. We hung out at the pool a lot, swimming and playing games under a palapa. Wonderfully spacious in the condo and the two bathrooms made it especially nice for 4 women to have enough space to get ready. Love, love, love it!

Once again, a great stay at Casa De Jefe! This roomy condo has everything we need - kitchen with all of the basics, laundry room with full sized washer and dryer and a deep and wide sink that we use for our wetsuits and other dive gear, plenty of large towels for diving or beach, comfortable couches, chairs and beds. These condos are quiet and gated and the manager is very responsive and helpful to all inquiries. The owner is quick to respond to inquiries.

Foreign comfort

I have to tell you, I was so comfortable at Casa de Jefe that I didn't want to leave. The place had all of the comforts of home but a beautiful island was included. Wifi was dependable & the town square was a short walk on foot. I enjoyed the square festivities on Sunday evening, check it out. The full size washer/dryer was appreciated so I didn't have to do laundry when I arrived home. Makes all of the discomforts of travel much more tolerable. Hope to return!

5 Days not enough.

We spend an enjoyable 5 days at Casa de jefe! Accessing the property was very easy. Communication was quick clear and concise. The property is very beautifully decorated, well equipped, comfortable, great beds and quiet. Wifi was very good. Onsite secure parking was available and easily accessed. Grounds were well kept and although we didn't use it the pool was warm and well maintained. The location was just far enough away from the tourist area so as not to be bothered by noise but close enough to walk to easily. Plenty of good restaurants and bars close by if your looking for a night out. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking to have a home like stay while away on vacation.

Amazing!

Thank you for sharing your home away from home with us. We booked this condo for a bachelorette party of six. The home was centrally located which made it an easy stroll in the evenings for food, shopping, or to catch a taxi to our beach destinations during the day. It was well appointed and the owners took time to decorate for my special event prior to our arrival. Check in and out was a breeze. My communications were answered in a timely fashion and we had an amazing experience. I would recommend this place to anyone and will definitely book with them again and again! Thanks again :)

Great Condo in a Great Location

In the past 7 years my family has stayed in a number of units in Las Ventanas. Casa de Jefe is the best. The condo is centrally located within easy walking distance of restaurants and shopping. The condo's furnishings are comfortable with a pleasing tropical vibe. The beds are comfortable The kitchen contains all the appliances, dishes, pots and pans and utensil to cook anything. The bathrooms are stocked with nuce toiletries. We love that daily maid service is included. The property managers are fantastic and attentive. They checked in several times to inquire whether we needed anything. Casa de Jefe provided a stress free base for a wonderful vacation. We will be back!

Great condo location and amenities

Our family very much enjoyed our stay at Casa De Jefe! Richard 'El Jefe' provided great communication prior and after booking. The condo was supplied with ample "bottled" water (water cooler on cabinet that provided cold water from what I believed was a 5 gallon source with extra bottled water available to replace if necessary, bottle water connected to sink, and the refrigerator water and ice dispenser was also labeled as water to use). Loved the availability of beach towels and the soft fluffy bath towels that were both plentiful. The washer and dryer came in handy a couple of times. AC made for a comfortable night's sleep. There were nice extra accommodations that were also provided that were not expected. The pool was much enjoyed by my 9 year old, but there's not a gradual entrance. It goes from about 1 foot to maybe 4 foot in one step. Pool itself wasn't very busy just a few nice retirees relaxing on the sides. Location was in great walking distance to multiple beach side restaurants, as well as, neighbors restaurants. I initially was worried on how we would feel walking after dark but we actually felt pretty safe within the few block radious we adventured to after the sunset. During the day time, we walked multiple times to the town center. All three of use gave this VRBO a 10 out of 10! Really looking forward to returning and booking with Richard 'El Jefe' again!

Great stay; great location

We were looking for a place to stay to comfortably fit our family of 6 within walking distance from the ferry. Little did we know what a great location this would end up being. It was so close to many great places to eat. The grounds were beautiful and the staff works hard to keep them that way. Communication with Richard was easy and he was always quick to respond and was helpful. We would definitely choose to stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Richard 'El Jefe and Susanita

Host profile image
'Susanita' and I fell in love with the Island of Cozumel in 2008 after visiting as new scuba divers. After a trip or two, we decided two things: 1. The diving in Cozumel was so wonderful, and 2. We wanted are little piece of Paradise. After searching and soul searching, we went all in and bought. While I am still not retired, I try to get down as much as possible among the many friendly people in the oasis of rest and relaxation.

Why they chose this property

After searching the area and our wants, we knew we needed some room. We wanted to share the joys of Cozumel with family and friends, so we chose this beautiful unit at Las Ventanas. It was so tastefully decorated, we changed very little. Now we have a roomy place to share time in paradise.

What makes this property unique

The beauty of Casa De Jefe for us is its proximity to everything in town. After a day on the dive boat or at a beach club or whatever, we can get cleaned up and stroll through El Centro and its many choices. Whether it is the upscale Kinta, a very affordable high quality Mexican Bistro whose food should grace the pages of a food magazine or a local cantina with mostly local families, or even some of the great street food, it is all there and close by. After dinner, stroll home along the water or stop at a friendly bar for a night cap, or hang out in the plaza and see what is going on, then stroll home. Of course mornings, you will want to stroll down to Zermatt bakery and snag some breakfast treats, again close enough to enjoy them there or home on the patio. Close to everything is why we chose Las Ventanas. (Really close. Not the kind where it's far away, but you can walk, rather the kind it's easier and faster to walk than drive even.)
