Comments Rented an oceanfront private house (Villa El Dorado) from At Home in Cozumel (www.cozumel.tc.com) which was fantastic. 4 BR/3BA with a pool and a maid. A private cook was optional. House was in great shape, clean, air conditioned and comparably priced to a hotel room. Would highly recommend that alternative. The property management company was very attentive and immediately fixed a couple of minor problems. Dove on a six-pack boat with Sea Urchin Dive (www.cozumel-diving.net/sea-urchin/) and would also highly recommend him. The owner/divemaster is Isidro Narvaez who is a lot fun, reliable, flexible to your schedule and diving wishes, and speaks perfect English. Will dive with him on my return trip.
