Agave Azul was smack in the middle of town! Walking distance to everything in town. We fished off the piers and hung out on the shore walls watching the tide and sea activity. Cabs were right in front. Has a shared kitchen to cook or refrigerate things. The maid was skilled at towel animals and each one was very special with added floral touches. It’s a simple clean local hotel with diving expertise and friendly staff 😁

Stay out!
This is the worst hotel I have stayed at in Cozumel. A big stinking dog in the reception, a small dog barking all day, and a karaoke/nightclub outside my window playing LOUD music until 5AM every day. They have a shared kitchen, but the fridge was overloaded, and my food was stolen the first day! The room needed renovation (way overdue) and the hotel was closed down after 8PM with the front door locked (hope it's never a fire there, that would be catastrophic) When I was supposed to check out January 1st, no one at work at the hotel, so I had a struggle getting my deposit. My suggestion, find another hotel! There are so many other and better hotels downtown Cozumel

AS I was told by one of the staff members this is primarily a hotel that caters to French speaking clients mostly from Quebec Canada. Noise from surrounding nightclubs is terrible on Fri. and Sat. nights till 4:30 AM You are required to deposit $25 US up front in case you steal the towels. Rooms need an upgrade and hot water was very sporadic. You are also required to prepay for your diving everyday even if you have prepaid your room for a week or more. Instructors and dive master staff are excellent!! Taxi everyday to the marina can be a pain. I did have fun but there is much room for improvement.

Thank you very much for your comment. We sincerely regret that your stay upset you. However, we would like to take the liberty of informing you that due to several different reasons, a deposit policy is a very common form in most accommodation establishments in Mexico. As our hotel is located near the sea in the heart of downtown Cozumel, it may occasionally have negative aspects beyond our control, but that we strive to make you forget by offering consistency in our high standard customer service. Due to the fact that Grand Cozumel Diving Center is affiliated with Agave Azul Hotel less than a year ago and that there are limited spaces available on the boats, payment before the activity is part of our policy of reservation as a guarantee. Agave Azul Grand Cozumel and its new administration will continue to improve in order to provide a good service at the price and satisfaction of the clients.

Great little hotel downtown.
Overall very good experience. Room was decent size, very clean, although bed was a bit lumpy. Communal kitchen available to all guests. Staff go out of their way to make you feel like family. Very close to ferry and everything else in Downtown Cozunel

Friendly, professional, talanted and a great place
Wonderful staff, both in the hotel and the dive shop. Need something, ask any staff and they will either deal with it or find the right person who can. The dive shop was the outstanding part. I have been diving for 40 years and I have never found a more professional dive operation. If you speak French you will love this place. Many of the divers and some of the staff speak French. Yes, I would stay here again.

Si te gusta el buceo sin duda es tu hotel, el personal muy amable y desde ahí puedes tomar los tours para ir a bucear. Si quieres conocer la isla es cómodo y céntrico, pero si lo tuyo es estar en un hotel sin salir y descansar, mejor busca otro.

Las fotografías publicadas en Expedia no corresponden a la realidad, la entrada del hotel se encuentra sucia llena de muebles viejos y en mal estado, no existe un encargado de la recepción para auxiliares después de las 8 de la noche, a la media noche se encuentran muchos borrachos a su alrededor y en la entrada principal. En general EL HOTEL ES UN EDIFICIO VIEJO Y FEO, SIN MANTENIMIENTO

Hôtel parfait pour les plongeurs
Chambres rustiques, très propres. Celle que nous avions avait un grand balcon avec une vue sur la mer. Il y avait un lit queen et king très confortables, toutefois il manquait de rangement, nous avons donc du tout laisser dans nos valises. L'hôtel est situé au centre-ville. Il est à 10 min. de marche du ferry, près de pleins de restaurant et à 15-20 min. de marche d'un gros magasin d'alimentation. Toutefois, puisqu'il est situé au centre-ville, il arrive que le night life de certains bars (fin de semaine) empêche de dormir. La cuisine commune que nous pouvons utiliser manque cruellement de chaudrons et casseroles. Nous avons donc constaté que les gens l'utilisait surtout pour les déjeuners mais peu pour les autres repas de la journée étant donné les faibles coûts des restaurants. Il y a un réfrigérateur commun pour mettre vos emplettes mais l'espace disponible est restreint. En ce qui concerne la plongée sous-marine: le personnel sur place et tous les gens sur le bateau sont extraordinaires. Ils sont avenants, professionnels et extrêmement soucieux de la sécurité de tous. Un dîner est inclus ainsi que de l'eau avec ou sans électrolyte. Les sites de plongée sont merveilleux, diversifiés et accessibles à tous les niveaux de plongeurs. Pour ceux qui sont de niveau "avancé/advance", je recommande de faire les plongées de nuit car elles sont incroyables et zen. Les plongées en cénote sont aussi fantastiques mais comme elles sont sur le continent, en général le coût
