Reliable and Exactly What we Needed February 23, 2009 R. Pruss (Streamwood, IL United States) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
It is a small book, but this is a small island. We had five nights in Cozumel, and didn't run out of great places to try. The author has a website where he lists closures and changes, so don't worry about the 2006 publication date. I believe that using this guidebook helped make our vacation better and cheaper than it would have been otherwise. In general, hotels are not listed, but everything else is!
Great Cozumel Pocket Guide December 6, 2008 Jeremy Martens (Wisconsin USA) 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is a great guide and worth every penny! My family just got back from a Cozumel vacation Nov 21 - Nov 30, 2008 and found this guide to be a great planning asset. We didn't leave the hotel without it because it either fit into my shorts pocket or into my wife's purse. We used it everyday to help us plan our daily activities, as well as, our breakfast, lunch and dinner plans. The guide was published late in 2006 (after the hurricane) and is still very accurate, we only found 2 places that had either closed or changed names. The guide is presented as a "Best Of" list from everything from best dinning, best shopping, to the best beaches, and the descriptions are detailed and accurate. The guide never steered us wrong, we were happy with every recommendation. There is even an overall island map and a map of the downtown area to help you on your adventures. I wanted a travel guide that focused only on Cozumel and not the surrounding Yucatan/Playa Del Carmen/Cancun; this is indeed what I was looking for. There were no reviews on this guide when I purchased, there should be! Please don't hesitate, this guide is awesome. We also purchased the Cozumel Can-Do map, but liked this guide better.
Pretty Good Book April 8, 2009 Joshua L. Peterson (Wyoming) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
(Same thoughts as the book on Playa) Seams to hit all the key points about the place that get passed over in the bigger travel books. After reading it im ready to head south after landing in Cancun. Book does just what it claims to do, alot of good info in there to where to get the best food, best drinks, shopping and have the best time. Glad i bought it, hope things calm down in Mexico so i can go back there in 2010 i hope and bring my kids this time.
An excellent read January 16, 2010 Jackson V. Lindsay (Wisconsin) An excellent book on the island. Another review mentioned nothing on parks or ecological reserves but in fact an entire page is dedicated to the islands largest park (Punta Sur) with information on its fauna and flora and even its inception as a park. Nontheless, though published in 2006 the information is far more detailed and interesting than the other guides mentioned. Of course I am bias but it is well worth noting that there is far more than dining and nightlife in this guide book.
Excellent Merchandise December 2, 2008 Robert Dalziel Jr. (Stevensville, Maryland United States) 1 out of 3 found this review helpful
This guide was purchased as a gift for my wife. We will be traveling to Cozumel and I wanted her to have a resource that could get her familiar with what there is to see there. This book is perfect.
