Great view!
We absolutely loved this little hotel, nothing fancy but very clean, comfortable beds. Great AC. Hot water takes a few minutes to kick in but this does not deter me in any way. The morning coffee service is adorable. The view from the balcony is priceless. Nice clean little pool a d sundeck. Location is excellent you can walk everywhere in town. Wonderful change from big AI resort vacationing. Highly recommend this little place.

Great staff and location
The staff was incredible. Ocean view room was fantastic and the price was great. The only downfall, which I'm guessing is common in older Cozumel hotels was the water pressure in the shower was low and it takes about 15 minutes or more of running the water for it to get hot. Other than that we enjoyed our stay very much and would gladly return.

This is a fine place for divers because it's close to the pier where you're picked up to go diving. There isn't an elevator though so you have to lug your gear up and down the steps. And if you're looking for a hot shower after a day of diving, forget about it. The rooms are spacious and the staff do a fone job of keeping everything clean. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

This is a hotel that you just rent if you only want to sleep. Do not expect anything else. the pool was ok but nothing to brag about. I do have to say if you are stay here make sure you get a room with a view, and they did have a small frig. in the room.

The shower was a disaster, it shot out into the bathroom. The spigots were impossible yo figure out, us and a few of our traveling companions had cold showers before we figured them out. The grate over the drain wasn't attached so it would float off and then you had to be careful you didn't step there and fall in the drain. The toilet was very slow to flush, I was always afraid it wouldn't. And you can't flush any toilet paper, but that's an island wide issue. The air conditioner blew straight onto the bed. And it ran constantly, no cycling on and off due to the temperature. On or off. Nothing in between. The staff were very nice, the building was very quiet, and the view is fantastic, our balcony faced the water. It seemed very safe, but that's island wide. There's very little crime there. We never once felt unsafe.

Truly wonderful!
Aaron and the team at Vista Del Mar ate terrific! The place is located perfectly — near everything you want to do—not in the middle of everything yet within very quick walking distance. The view of the Port/ocean is incredible. The pool is super clean. Aaron gave helpful recommendations for nearby grocery stores. And the housekeeping staff members were happy, always smiling, and always gracious. When I come back to Cozumel in December, I will be staying here for two weeks! Truly wonderful!

It's not a luxury hotel but an excellent value. Our room was spacious and had a balcony facing the ocean. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Great location. Room could use an in-room coffee maker and the pool area could be more attractive. We'll stay here again some day.

It's all about the money you want to spend, I don't think you can get an ocean view this cheap within walking distance to town elsewhere. Beds were marginal, Room was big and fine, Shower was good, view was amazing as was the walking distance to centro. There is no elevator and limited staff as this is very small hotel, the pool looked adequate but we didn't use it. Coffee was delivered to our room daily as our wake up call. We parked the rental on the street and at a private lot a block away.

The staff was very friendly. The first day they helped us rent a scooter for $25 USD. The operator came to the hotel to meet us and walked us around the corner to rent the scooter. He was very friendly and helpful, giving us tips for our ride. We received a complimentary pot of coffee and crossiants each day delivered at whatever time we wanted. We had a waterfront room which was really pretty and traffic was not too loud in the evening with the air conditioner on all night.

Don't Let the Price Fool You
We were not sure about independent hotels in Cozumel, but we took a chance. Vista del Mar was fantastic! A convenient way to experience Cozumel. We could quickly walk to all tge great food or taxis are across the street. The 7-11 is next door for grabbing snacks and cervezas. Hotel is on the main road, so there is street noise, but it didn't keep us awake. The small pool was perfect for cooling off after snorkeling.

Great location, basic hotel
The Vista Del Mar is a very basic hotel with a great view if you get the ocean view room. The hotel is located right in the middle of everything. The staff was great and even helped me with a few special requests. There are no chairs in the room so if you want a place to sit and relax it will have to be on the bed or the balcony.

I wanted to stay at a reasonable priced hotel within walking distance of attractions. I loved my stay here and couldn't ask for a more attentive and friendly staff. Within walking distance of anything I needed and of course taxi are immediately available for the trips to other areas of the island. Highly recommend this hotel.
