Blue Angel Resort

“Cozumel is everything they say and the Blue Angel Resort delivers a very good place to call home for a bit”

I am a professional scuba diver and my wife doesn’t dive due to sea sickness. So as we married people do, we find a compromise. Blue Angel resort is the perfect place. Right on the ocean and a pool as well. The staff is very friendly and they make you feel welcomed, all the time. The scuba dive… more

I am a professional scuba diver and my wife doesn’t dive due to sea sickness. So as we married people do, we find a compromise. Blue Angel resort is the perfect place. Right on the ocean and a pool as well. The staff is very friendly and they make you feel welcomed, all the time. The scuba dive staff are also very professional and very good at what they do. Now, here is the secret of the place…the Chef is exceptional! Never saw them or met them but what came out of the kitchen was well presented and very delicious. The hotel is well kept and if it is broken or not working, it gets repaired or replaced. The AC was perfect, the beds were comfortable and they even had pillows that quite adequate! You are the perfect distance between cruise ship ports that you avoid the thousands that pour off those ships. I highly recommend to rent a jeep for the day and cruise to the breezy side of the island…about 100$ with everything in…the hotel staff arranged this for us. There was a young lady by the name of Sylvia who sang there a few nights…she is exceptionally talented!

“10th Anniversary heaven”

The best way to spend our 10th Anniversary.The room was excellent. The food is superb. We arrived on Monday ,enjoyed live music on Wednesday, Thursday & Friday.

“4/5, would stay again! Great balcony views, great dive shop. Some street noise.”

4/5, would stay again! 3rd time on Cozumel, 1st time in this hotel. Super friendly staff, very good dive shop, excellent breakfast included in the room rate and balcony views which are just stunning! I also really, really enjoyed just being able to walk directly from the breakfast, down past the dive shop and on to the boats, where your diving gear would be waiting for you. Good and fast dive boats, although 2 out of the 3 were small with no bathroom facilities, if that's important to you. Good dive masters! The rooms are spacious and the bathrooms are what I would call OK by local standards (although I really wish they would allow you to flush the used toilet paper, yuck!) and with reasonable water pressure and hot water most of the time. The walk to the downtown area of San Miguel is about 15 minutes or 150 pesos in a taxi, and the taxis are plentiful. The live music in the evening (3 days/week) was of very high standard.The garden is nice and the pool (mostly used for divers' training) area is a great place to lounge about with a drink from the bar, enjoying the sunsets. The best rooms are probably in the x03-05 range on the 3rd and 4th floor, as those are away from the lobby/garden "elevator" music (why not turn that off?) and have less street noise, allowing one to fully appreciate the sounds of wind in the palms and surf on the pier. We asked to be moved from the 2nd floor to one of the upper floors, and staff were very kind to accomodate that without any fuss. Also by chance met the owner of the place, and she spontaneously offered us lunch in the restaurant, which was great! However, with that said, there is also quite some room for improvement. The rooms are indeed dated (and the electrical outlets are in particular quite dodgy & SUPER-dirty!) and there is quite some street noise. When the hotel undergoes renovation in the hopefully not-too-distant future, then I would very strongly recommend that sound-proof doors towards the street be installed. Along the same lines, the x06 rooms at the end of the building and towards the small shipyard would benefit immensely from some fencework up against the yard building, for some sound mitigation to dampen street noise.

“Not a returning customer”

We stayed at Blue Angel for Diving, which we enjoyed the dive leader Andy and the Boat people.

We stayed at Blue Angel for Diving, which we enjoyed the dive leader Andy and the Boat people. The dive shop people are not very accommodating, we were unable to dive on Thursday due to illness, and they would not allow us to switch to Friday or give a refund. The hotel itself and staff is disappointing. Most days you would see the staff sitting around playing on their phones while the sitting area in the lobby is in disarray chairs stacked, cushions a mess, clean lines stacked on the couches. dirty dishes stacked up, water container empty. There was a coke bottle on the side of the steps the entire week we were there. Lounge furniture by the pool legs broken laying there on the ground. Pool needs painting. In our room the outlets are hanging out of the wall 303. looks like black mold on the ceiling and above the air conditioner.
