This past March on my most recent cruise we had a stop in Cozumel, Mexico. As you all know Cozumel is one of my favorite cruise ports because of the abundance of activities.
Over 10 years ago we traveled to Cozumel and went to this small beach called Paradise Beach. I remember is being a private beach with a floating jungle gym, and small restaurant, and a few chairs. Fast forward to 2023 Paradise Beach is voted one of the best all inclusive beach clubs in the Caribbean.
For $60 you have access to free chairs, a private beach and pool, and unlimited food and drink.
From the moment you walk into Paradise Beach you are encompassed in a tropical paradise with palm trees and tropical flowers lining the pathway to a large bar, pool, and open beach. You are greeted by a hostess who helps you pick the perfect seat location for you stay and they immediately take your first drink order of the day and treat you to a plate of chips, guac, and their famous pico.
For an all inclusive beach club, I do have to say the food was top notch. My favorite was the tacos and nachos. But they have more variety than just your favorite Mexican street food. They have everything from hamburgers to chicken fingers to salads for those wanting to be on the healthier side.
And same with drinks, you can order any type of alcoholic drink you can imagine as well as non-alcoholic sodas and water. Paradise beach has something for everyone.
And if you are wondering if kids are welcome… the answer is yes. For an additional $18 you can purchase a fun pass which gives you access to the floating water park, kayaks, stand up paddle boards, and water hammocks. You can purchase this addition at any point throughout the day.
If you are coming from a cruise ship all you need to do is catch a taxi at the cruise port. We paid $17 each way for a taxi ride and it took around 10 minutes to get there. Be sure to pack cash to pay and tip your driver as well as the wait staff at Paradise Beach.
My biggest tip before you book your day at Paradise Beach is to make sure you get their early. We found that around 11am the place was quickly filling up so chair locations, especially for large parties were limited. If your ship doesn’t dock until mid day, I would suggest skipping out on Paradise Beach and enjoying on your next trip to Cozumel.
But for those who arrive early or are staying on the island I can wait to hear what you think of this Paradise on Earth.
